Last year, I decided to purchase a Bonaire-Durango swamp cooler, and Nelson's installed it, running water lines and securing it in the window. This was a recommendation by Gene Nelson, and it cut my electricity bill by $200.00 over the summer months. It meant I could shut-down the AC unit, and run the swamp cooler during the 115 degree heat. I would, and do recommend them to friends.

They were very quick to make an easy sale and sell me the 5 year warranty program. It took them 5 days to arrange delivery, which I can understand that it can take some time. I had to pay extra for the mount that the unit slides into and for the installation for the 2nd floor. They told the tenant (who has been without A/C for 4 days) that the existing 220 outlet was the wrong outlet and they were not allowed to change it out to a 30amp outlet. They have always changed out my outlets in the past when they needed to be changed out. They went ahead and installed the window unit and told the tenant that it was his responsibility to call an electrician and have him change the plug out. I feel that when a company was paid for installation, the appliance should be working when they leave. They could have changed the plug out in 5 minutes. I found someone who took care of the plug and it only took 5 minutes. On top of it all, he sold me an A/C unit with a heat pump when I had only requested the A/C. They were willing to come and switch it out but I refused. I expect to have a better experience in the future if I decide to use them again."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/la/metairie/barto-appliance-reviews-3359724.htm"},"position":9},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Elegant Touch Cleaning LLC","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"CA","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Nicholas A."},"reviewBody":"They arrived two hours late.

I had to ask them to clean the appliances, clean the foyer, vacuum the stairs, mop. They did not wipe down the kitchen counters, the bathroom mirrors, vacuum the bedroom or family room, the list goes on and on. It was the biggest waste of time and money I have ever spent. I have had my home cleaned professionally many times and this company is not in the cleaning business.

We live in the Joshua Tree area and had a Kohler generator installed in 2021. Unfortunately, by 2025, it had failed. A local electrical contractor inspected it but couldn’t repair the issue, so we turned to the expert—Pete Poillon. I’m incredibly glad we did.
Pete promptly diagnosed the...
Terry was astounding at assisting me with this purchase. I had some specific wants from my new home, and she carefully steered me towards homes that met my criteria. Occasionally she probed to see what my limits were, and then she respectfully revised her searches for me. After a couple...
I've worked with Gene and Randee Nelson for the past 3 years. I built a new home in 2008, and since then my AC unit has taken multiple electricity hits (we have bad power in 29 Palms). In August 2012, we lost the condenser, and I filed a claim with my home warranty company, they sent out...

Ralph was on time & capable. Heat appraisal to be out of warranty, out was not. Ralph worked the supplier and saved us well over $ 1,000.

"Sunrun installed a bad roof on my house. After many months of emails and phone calls, they never sent out a repair man. Finally, under duress, I signed a form from Sunrun to use my own contractor. I signed under duress because they said they couldn't get a repair man and that this was the only way I could get my roof repaired, and there were driving rains. I told I didn't want to be personally responsible, and that's only thing I asked. But after the contractor fixed the leaks, there was more hidden damage that emerged and more leaks. They told me they won't fix the roof. The bad roof they installed was so bad that one company wanted to charge me $23,000 to fix it. He said the roof was so bad that really it should be replaced. And boy, when he looked at it, he sneered in disgust. Why did they not simply repair the roof after the first phone call. Eventually, they sent me an email with lies, such as "since the roof no longer has a running leak, Sunrun is not responsible for a repair." A blatant lie. I assumed this was an underhanded tactic written by a lawyer to fool the court in the event of a lawsuit. I thought Sunrun was a legitimate company. Even the Sunrun claims manager apologized to me for my treatment, and she said the higher ups were orchestrating everything. She seemed to be trapped in an immoral circumstance because the bosses simply wanted to get out of paying for that roof at all costs. Even from the beginning, they continually tried to get me to "work " with their contractor. They said they couldn't find the contractor and only that particular contractor could fix the roof. Why were they telling me all this. I told Sunrun, that I purchased the roof from them and to leave me out of such conversations. I truly feel this matter is about greed and avoiding the cost of their damage. They have a lot excuses, but I felt from the beginning, everything was a dodge or a put off. It's been two years and my roof still leaks. This is so cruel. I'm a senior citizen. The stress has been affecting my health and making me I'll."

Home Warranties questions, answered by experts
Before you replace your windows, check your home warranty. Many home warranties don’t cover windows at all, while some have specific clauses about what they will and will not cover and what might void the warranty. If you have any questions, reach out to your insurance specialist, and never make assumptions.
Most homeowners insurance policies do not cover termite damage since it’s considered preventable damage. Termite damage is not considered sudden or accidental—it can happen over long periods of time and can be prevented. Proactive pest control and annual termite inspections are the best way to prevent expensive termite damage repair costs.
The average cost of a home warranty is around $55 per month, but you could pay anywhere from $30 to $125 or more, depending on a few factors. Some of the most significant cost factors include the following:
Contract service fee
Items covered by your contract
Coverage caps in your contract
Whether or not you can choose your own service technician
Home’s location
Contract length
Any coverage add-ons
In most cases, installing solar panels will not void your roof warranty. To keep roof warranties intact, check your written warranty or call the manufacturer to ask about clauses regarding roof penetrations. You can also protect yourself by getting written approval or a modified warranty that specifically allows the solar installation type you’re planning. Then, hire a professional solar installer that follows roofing manufacturer instructions and protects the roof during installation.
The standard HVAC warranty is around five years. Still, many brands offer an extension to 10 years if you register the product within a specific timeframe, typically 60 to 90 days post-purchase or HVAC installation. Over the past decade, warranty periods have substantially increased, shifting from 3-5 years in the 90s to the now-prevalent 10+ year warranties. Both warranty types cover parts failing due to manufacturer defects, incurring no additional costs. Some manufacturers provide extended warranties surpassing the usual 15- to 20-year window, though these often involve extra fees.
