"No findings, no solution, no explanation… collected the fee… the issue is still there. I had Triad Mechanical Company for our HVAC issue that the outdoor unit is not running. I told Paul, the assigned technician, that we had tried resetting the power to the outdoor unit but that only brought the unit back on running for a few days before it stopped running again. I asked Paul’s help diagnose the issue for the root cause. However, when I came to the property just a few minutes later than Paul, he told me that he had done his work already, well, by simply resetting the power to the unit! (although I told him that we already tried that but it didn’t work!)… He didn’t have the patience to explain to me what diagnosis he had done (within that a few minutes) and he didn’t even bother to come off his truck to show me but saying “go ask your tenant”. He collected the fee and left. I will never trust nor use Triad Mechanical Company again!"

Keep Smiling Plumbing Electric Heating and Cooling is a family-owned, family-operated, full-service plumbing electric and HVAC business, serving Gwinnett County, Georgia. We are Master Plumbers and members of the Plumbing & Mechanical Association of Georgia. Keep Smiling Plumbing & Electric is there when you need us, ready to take care of any problem that you may have with your plumbing or electrical systems. We also have available a full line of quality replacement products if you want to upgrade or update.

"They told us "Our dispatch fee to come out is $39 and we waive that towards any work or repairs, including diagnostics." The electrician went to check and stayed at the property for less than 5 mins after confirmation to do full diagnostic of the electrical system. I don't think less than 5 mins is enough to run a full diagnostic and later on advise to upgrade the whole panel."

We are a family-owned Electrician business, founded in 2020. We take great pride in our work, and take the utmost care when providing services to our customers. Our team of experienced electricians has the knowledge and expertise to handle any electrical project, no matter how big or small.

"NES was great! Extremely professional and knowledgeable. He explained everything all the way through. I had tons of questions but he ended up really taking his time to answer them I had around 7 quotes from different companies but ultimately decided to go with NES because I felt I could trust the work. Even if the prices are similar, go with your gut and pick NES. There was no frills and extra bs. I ended up adding a ton of services on the original quote because the value it provided. If you are looking at this review you have most likely spoken with other vendors. I’ve talked to countless people saying they can’t give any ballpark quotes until they it. Scope of work may change when they see it BUT.. the price of the work shouldn’t change. Every vendor has a pricing sheet of the base level work.

Since 1996, Ragsdale Heating, Air, Plumbing and Electrical has worked to maintain our reputation as the name you can trust for your heating, cooling, plumbing and electrical needs. Our Ragsdale team is comprised of truly good people, who care deeply and are devoted to taking exceptional care of our customers, our community, and each other. From the people in our office to the technicians out on the road, everyone here is dedicated to 100% customer satisfaction. We are a family who treats you like family, and we are 100% focused on doing what is right every time, every day. Our goal is for you to take comfort in knowing that when you have a problem, Ragsdale is here for you.

"Although the technicians are very nice. As a company Ragsdale has failed us miserably. We spent about 18K to have our whole system upgraded and new insulation in the attic. We followed the recommendation of their sales person to the letter. He ASSURED us that in spending all that money we would not have any more issues cooling our home. Immediately there were more issues. The A/C unit they installed outside dies in 3 days. It was a lemon I guess. And when they went to replace that they also saw that the sales person didn’t notice that the circuit breaker was not the right one to handle the new unit. They had recommended we add new intakes in two rooms so we had done that as well. Like I said we did everything he told us we needed to do to solve any cooling issues. Still two rooms don’t cool well, my office and our master bedroom. We have reached out a few times and they send someone to look. Every time they have different recommendations from a second unit to another thermostat, tinting the windows, keep the blinds closed etc. I have tinted the windows and we keep the blinds closed, but another unit or another thermostat are just not things we can afford to pay for out of pocket. Two times I was told a supervisor would reach out to us but they never did. The guy today, again he was very nice. Said we should buy wireless sensors to connect to our thermostat so it knows to keep cooling. That’s another $100 out of our pocket. He said there should be a second cooling vent in our master bedroom as well. Yet another thing they didn’t recommend when we bought this system that we were assured would be more than enough to cool our home. All these things we would have considered and/or done if we were told they were needed when we spent the money. But the I think commissioned sales person didn’t really know what he was doing now. He was just looking to make a sale and didn’t care wether it actually fixed the issue or not, he got paid either way. Again today I try to call and speak to someone before I left this review. I sat on home for 5-10 min with the recording telling me my place in line and to hold to speak to someone. Just to get the general voicemail to leave a message. We are stuck with them now, they do the warranty work so they do the yearly maintenance to keep the warranty. But I would NOT recommend til his company to anyone right now. They have completely failed us and taken our money without actually doing what their sales person assured us would happen. Very disappointed avoid them for your own good"

Thomas Built is a full range, state-licensed general contractor providing expertise and management of all phases of residential and multi-family construction. From kitchen and bathroom remodels to home additions to brand new homes, we pride ourselves on quality and service. We also do much of our own work such as our own mill work and custom built cabinets.

"I contacted Thomas Built to see if they could construct a fireplace mantle and surround for us. Terry came out did some measuring and gave us a quote. We worked on fine tuning things and waited until they had a break in their major projects. Terry returned for final measurements after we had granite tiles laid. The fireplace was built and delivered within three days. My husband stained it and installed it to save on the cost. Couldn't be happier with the final project. It does take some flexibility to work with Thomas Built when a project is this small, but it's well worth it."

From lack of communication, follow through, and completion of my project. I started with the first associate, was handed off to the next associate, given engineered plans that didn't even apply to the building I was installing, sent corrections that weren't correct, resent the plans that were incorrect and haven't received anything since. I was transferred to a manager, whom never contacted me until i contacted Rueben the so called supervisor.

Subcontracting services FAQs

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.

Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they’re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.
