"I had a great experience with JDL. They were able to come out the next day to repair my furnace. The technician, Ire, was very professional, easily diagnosed the problem, and made the repairs right away. He also demonstrated to me that the problem was fixed and made sure that I could perform basic maintenance going forward. I highly recommend JDL."

"Kenny arrived at my home from K and K to install the ice maker. I think he had the job completed in about 45 minutes but initially told me 1 hour. I had an existing water supply and he connected that for me also. He was very professional, informed me of the cost that I agreed to pay. This was a great customer service experience. If I needed a major appliance repair, I would definitely use this company again. I got it done when I wanted so I am more than pleased. I know it does not always happen that way."

"We originally found AMS via Angie's List, and the owner came out very quickly to do a free inspection and talk to use about everything he was seeing -- high potential for mold within the walls of the shower, and other possible areas (on drywall of opposite side of walls, floor, etc.) He showed us all readings on the tools he was using, talked to us in detail about what he recommended -- namely, complete destruction of the tile-walled shower due to multiple instances of bad grout (old shower) and the resultant mold problem within the walls as well as on the floor of the shower. He also recommended some touch-up painting with anti-mold paints where water spotting occurred on our main level ceiling, rather than a more complex/expensive and in his view unnecessary ceiling patch. His crew was excellent, keeping things very clean and on schedule and luckily no major issues were found besides demolishing just the existing shower and raising up the old linoleum flooring followed by completely painting all exposed areas with Aftershock anti-mold primer paint to minimize problems in the future. He stayed at the estimate of about $3K for this work as agreed. (I eventually put in a new shower and floor myself.) For his second visit, he came out for another free inspection of some mold exposed in a main level bathroom ceiling when some plaster that had been wet down a few years ago when doing some cleaning broke away. This was a very small mold spot, and had a companion of some other mold shadowed behind wallpaper. AMS did another free inspection of this problem for me today, and advised that it was something I could definitely handle myself - ceiling and walls were bone-dry all around the area and it would be simple to just remove a patch of the wallpaper (which we plan to remove in this room anyway), scrub the mold with appropriate cleaner, re-plaster the small area of the ceiling that would need it, and then paint with Aftershock primer paint. He even gave me recommendations on places to get all my materials, including the brush I would need to match the existing ceiling texture. Even when I offered to pay for the inspection, he refused -- just asked me to write up a couple reviews, which I'm happy to do. I'm the type of person that likes to find high-quality businesses to form relationships with. As much as no one wants to use a mold remediation service, I would definitely call AMS again if I need to."

"Picked us up and took us and 10 of our close friends on a Halloween evening dinner, drinks, mini pub crawl.
Great service, driver was always close by and picked us up within 5 minutes with his land yacht in nutty Halloween traffic.
Driver uses his GPS to get around which is not an issue however, if you have a better/preferred route, make sure you let him know and he will accommodate.
Great service, professional, friendly and highly recommended.
Thank you Mike.

"They could have easily left as soon as they figured out it was a septic back wash issue. However, their Plumber (who had been working all night because we had record amounts of rain over the weekend) stayed there to ensure I had pumps to clean out the basement and provided me with all the information I needed to fix my issue. OUTSTANDING plumbing service!!!!!"

Boiler Repair questions, answered by experts

Even if you do everything right, your boiler’s pilot light might not come on. This has a number of possible causes, but the most common is a blocked jet. These jets are small and clog up even with a small amount of debris. You can clean it yourself or hire a pro to replace the component. Other possible causes include a faulty fan and frozen pipes, among others.

The primary differences between a heat pump and a boiler are their function and how they produce heat. A heat pump is a versatile system that provides both heating and cooling by moving ambient air and altering its temperature. In contrast, a boiler is solely a heating system, often working with a furnace or AC unit as part of a larger HVAC system. In terms of heat production, a heat pump generates heat more slowly and at a lower temperature, requiring a large convector for distribution. A boiler, however, produces a large amount of high-temperature heat that it emits through smaller radiators.

When it comes to bleeding a radiator, the goal is to let out trapped air rather than letting out the water. Naturally, some water will dribble out when you open the valve to let out the air. But you don’t want a lot of water to leak out. Just leave the valve open long enough that the hissing noise stops, meaning the air has escaped, and just a dribble of water comes out of the radiator.

Attempting DIY fixes can be dangerous. Regular boiler maintenance can help prevent overheating, so schedule professional servicing as a preventive measure. In an emergency, telling occupants to leave the house is a good idea. Then, you can turn off the boiler and the gas or fuel supply. Let it cool naturally, and check the thermostat's settings. Ensure there are no obstructions around the boiler for proper ventilation. Monitor the pressure gauge; if it's too high, bleed the radiators if necessary. During this time, bringing in professionals for troubleshooting is also smart.

Chilled water HVAC systems use water instead of traditional components and refrigerants. They're more common in commercial settings than residential ones but are slowly being adopted by some homebuilders to cool homes. As the name implies, the system keeps the water chilled at 40 degrees and circulates it through water coils. The water absorbs the heat from your home and drains outdoors. Condo apartments are more likely to have chilled water HVAC than single-family homes because this system is designed to cool several rooms or large areas individually.
