SCHARDEIN MECHANICAL
About us
For over 27 years, Schardein Mechanical has provided top-of- the-line mechanical services for hundreds of respected companies throughout the state of Kentucky. Our recent expansions in Elizabethtown, KY and Bowling Green, KY have also enabled us to provide hands-on-service throughout the area. At Schardein we offer a unique blend of mechanical contracting and high quality shop fabrication. This insures that our customers get just the right equipment installed by the most experienced team. Schardein is committed to hiring the best and keeping the best. Our team averages more than 15 years of industry experience. We also continually provide our team with training and service upgrades from all of our manufacturing partners. We are proud that our technicians have the skills to repair and maintain almost any system in use today. Rising fuel costs have made efficient boilers a critical part of any profitable manufacturing business. Schardein understands this and has the expertise and equipment to design, install and maintain the ideal system for your needs. Replacing an inefficient system with the proper new system will also quickly pay for itself. Schardein understands that off-the-shelf products do not always provide the solution you need. That’s why we provide custom fabrication services for all of our customers. Custom fabrication insures that it’s exactly what you need where you need it. A reliable, practical plumbing system is indispensable for handling the supply and waste for industrial and commercial operations. Schardein Mechanical's trained and certified experts use a large variety of materials (cast iron, PVC, HDPE, copper or steel piping) to produce the most appropriate plumbing solutions for your specific situation. Schardein understands the value of an effective preventative maintenance program. Our technicians will map out the right schedule for your equipment and will keep your air conditioning and heating components operating properly. The Schardein preventative maintenance programs for air conditioning units and heating equipment include regular annual inspections. During these inspections, proper operation of the equipment is checked and verified. All mechanical equipment is designed to operate within certain limits. Air conditioning and heating equipment re no exception, and if not properly maintained, the equipment will exceed its design limitations and fail. Ideally, the ratio of spending for HVAC systems should be 70% PM and 30% corrective maintenance. The best insurance against failure & cost containment is PM. Schardein Mechanical’s technicians also hold certifications for installation and service of Leibert's environmentally controlled computer room systems and for Mitsubishi climate controlling systems.

One of my questions was regarding how the heat pump and boiler thermostats were wired together. The information he gave me ended up being incorrect which isn't a big deal but I would have been happier if he had taken the time to inspect our system further to give me a more accurate answer.
I received an itemized invoice totaling $396.92 a week later. I saw that I had been charged for three hours of labor at $80/hr even though the technician was only at my home for two hours (11:30-1:30). I also noticed a $50 "truck charge" and the cost of the part that was replaced. I called Schardein to confirm that the charges were correct and was informed that I was billed from the time that the technician was dispatched and that the $50 truck charge was to compensate for the cost of fuel.
I feel that $130 for travel is too much to charge for this kind of call. I understand that they want to bill for travel time but I feel that this amount was unfair for the work that was done. I will not be calling Schardein again in the future.
