The repairman had to take apart the entire furnace to find the problem. He got the furnace working again. He was super nice.

They suggested my battery needs water - I would have thought putting water in the battery would be part of the service but all I got was a look. I guess a look is worth $49....

Excellent. Sam redid the piping and safely disconnected the electrical connections. By doing so, a disposal can always be installed at a later date if needed.
Description of Work: My garbage disposal was leaking and I decided to have it removed rather than replaced.

From my first call to Lifeline, I was very impressed with their customer service and professionalism. The call center rep was upbeat and helpful, and passed along my request quickly. I then got a call soon after from Dennis to set up a time for Lifeline to do the work (which he was able to schedule only 2 days later). Lenny, who came to do the work, was timely, friendly, knowledgeable, listened well to our concerns, and then did a great job of explaining what he was going to do and the cost upfront. He quickly fixed the problem, and was courteous and professional. I will call Lifeline next time we have any plumbing/gas line needs, and would highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Nicor had accidentally capped a gas line to our fireplace - we needed that fixed.

Terrible experience with this company. I received an estimate of $300 to fix each faucet which I thought was high but I wanted it fixed so I paid $150 to start the project. Lenny ordered the parts and was going to install but then called to say they were the wrong parts. So fast forward a month later, I'm calling this company asking what is going on. I called 3x over 3 weeks and clearly they were not interested in fixing my faucets so I asked for my $150.00 back. They agreed to refund and made no attempt to try to find the parts. It then took another 2 weeks to get my refund which they cashed back in September. I asked for a manager to call me, it never happened. When I finally got the check in the mail, there was no apology letter or anything. This company is only interested in big repairs with a big price tag attached...run from this company! I also got an estimate to replace a kitchen sink and garbage disposal, they wanted $900 to install ( I would buy the sink & disposal).
Description of Work: I had 2 bathroom tub faucets that were leaking.

I received a quick appointment within 1 week of initial contact, Was contacted on appointment day that plumber would arrive in 30 minutes, and he did. Plumber Tim surveyed the work to be done and parts I supplied and provided a price. We negotiated a lower price which I thought was satisfactory Tim performed the work and cleaned up completely afterward New faucet looks and operated great. I would hire Lifeline again on a future project

Brain was very professional and polite, and on time. He came over to just clean my wall heater,but I told him I had a problem with my fan and could he look at it. And he did. He took my fan out of the heater and worked on it and then put it back in place. And now it works so quietly. No more rattling noise. I would use this business again. Plus I would ask for Brain to be the person to come over to work on my 2 wall heaters.
Description of Work: I needed my wall heater in my kitchen cleaned and the fan fixed. It made a horrible noise when it came on. Brain did an excellent job of repairing my fan in the heater. It runs so quietly and smoothly now. Thank you Brain.

Terrible said carbon monoxide detectors don’t work until it’s too late wanted to sell me a furnace be very careful with this company Angie’s list should take them off I will be contacting corporate office at Angie’s list .. and be Leary of good reviews so shady they probably pay for them . Hv another story on water heater for clean and inspect in summer didn’t know it was same company as furnace they did nothing said nothing to do if I didn’t pay to hv the newer water heater drained just be careful. Paid 30.00 as a Angie’s list special clean and check more interested in check than clean.
Description of Work: This was second time hired for just a yearly clean on furnace before winter last year he almost had me talked into a new furnace till I came to my senses I had a home for years which endured many floods furnace always held up so thought wait and see this is a newer townhouse. So called for cleaning for this winter and he did more “writing up “ what was wrong than doing the cleaning then he called it “tune up “ oh and I changed ur filter almost laughed in his face I could of done that. Then when I didn’t go along with his crap he said well it’s not safe and could be leaking carbon monoxide I said well isn’t that why we hv detectors he went on to tell me they don’t work and if they do it’s usually to late “”hire at ur own risk be careful big scammers

Tech was on time and extremely nice. He told me that I had a few tiny holes in the burners and carbon monoxide could be leaking into the house. When I asked to see the holes he told me that he already put his scope back in his truck- never did get it and show me. His carbon monoxide sensor read 0.0 at the furnace and vents checked yet he told me that I needed to replace the whole unit. I will keep fresh batteries in my carbon monoxide detector! I did get what I paid for (furnace cleaned) and WAS expecting the sales pitch at the end!

Terribly. I don't trust them now and I don't trust Angie's List anymore either.
Description of Work: I bought the $39 service. Called and spoke with them. I was on the phone forever with them taking down tons of information. I have two properties and paid $39 for each. I am out $78!!!! I told them I was having a late start on Monday, 11/20 and wanted them to come anytime before 1:00 so that I could leave for work by 1:30. I told them that at the other house they could come anytime on Friday, 11/24 because I was off all day. I was told a scheduler would be calling me. I have heard nothing. I emailed them too. Still nothing. I am very upset about this! Please help

I'm hoping for a refund. If not, it's a sunk cost and hopefully this lousy review will help others choose wisely.
Description of Work: I hired them to do a checkup on my air conditioner. After reaching out to them a couple of times, either leaving a message or talking to a receptionist to have a salesperson call me back, they never did. I did receive one phone call while I was in a meeting at work, and called them back to get the same, we'll have someone call you. Needless to say, between traveling for work and their inability to have someone be able to talk to me at the number they provided to SCHEDULE my service, the 30 days went past my purchase and I am unable to get a refund from Angie's list. Sure, I hold onto the value of the purchase, but would you really want to deal with this?

Great, the service visit met my expectations
Description of Work: I used the Angie's list coupon for a furnace tune-up. Brian called prior to arrival and promptly got to work on the maintenance task. When finished he explained the condition of the furnace and offered to update my thermostat, a service that I declined. The furnace seems to be running more efficiently since his call. I definitely would use Lifeline in the future.
