After two visit my units were still not up to par. They kept encouraging me to purchase a new unit. I ended up using another service provider who was able to relieve the pressure in the line and thus improve the (heat) air flow. I think MTB could have just told me they don't work on that type of unit instead of telling me to purchase a new unit.
Description of Work: They came out a few times but weren't able to fix my heating & cooling unit that I use some time through out the winter.

Response from MTB Mechanical Inc
On 10-2-12 MTB was contacted by the member to perform a tune up on her heating and cooling system. We performed the necessary cleaning and checking of the equipment and advised the member that she was low on refrigerant and that the compressor was pulling higher than it's rated amperage. This is a 27 year old system and is well beyond its normal life span. We recommended that she consider replacing the system rather than making expensive repairs. On 10-3-12 we sent a Comfort Consultant out at the member's request to quote a new system for her, she asked if we could replace it for less than $200.00. This was not possible and so again at the member's request we sent the technician back out at no charge to verify his initial findings. The original diagnosis was confirmed. We are unhappy any time we have a dissatisfied customer, however we cannot rejuvenate a 27 year old system with major issues nor can we replace it for less than $200.00.

LT Baker came out and spend alot of time with me. Answered al my questions and coming back and giving my husband additional information. We wanted to buy a Highbridge unit and Mr Baker said we should get another unit that is much cheaper and it was going to fit our needs better. The men that came out did a wonderful job and it looked like they have worked together for years.

Response from MTB Mechanical Inc
We are always disappointed to find out that we have let a customer down in some way. When we arrived at the member home the thermostat was set on 74 and the temperature in the house was 74. We checked the voltage, amps and refrigeration levels of the system and all these readings were in the normal range. The temperature drop across the coil was 19 degrees which again is well within the normal range of 18-20 degrees. Our service tech was honest with the homeowners and told them that there was nothing wrong with the operation of the system. We were out on July 10th which was a hot time of the year, but the system was working properly and would run a lot during that hot period to keep the temperature at 74 degrees. It is our policy to be honest with homeowners and not to sell someone something they do not need.

I contacted MTB after being told by another company that we needed to replace our furnace and 5 year old AC. The sales guy Landon came out to give us an estimate and suggested that we contact the service desk to get a free second opinion b/c of some misinformation given by the other company. Landon provided us an estimate to replace the furnace and one to replace the furnace and AC which was well below the other company. The service guy came out the next day and checked our furnace, evaporator coil and AC and determined that we didn't need to replace the units. The furnace had some damage from a previous issue and there were some items that he suggested we replace and if we were going to spend the money to replace those items we should just replace the furnace for cost effectiveness. We definitely did not need to replace the coil as the other company stated or the AC. So glad I called MTB!!! The service guy was fantastic and took the time to show me the pictures of the furnace and answer all of my questions. We will definitely use them going forward for ANY of our HVAC needs.

These guys are amazing. I called in the morning and they had someone out that afternoon. Every single employee I interacted with was polite, professional, punctual, informative, and thorough. They had to order a part for our system and expected five days to receive it; it came the next morning and they installed it that afternoon. I wish all service companies would model themselves after these guys. In a few years when we have to replace the system with one of the proper size, we will definitely be using them. The $89 service call seems a bit high, but I'm completely willing to pay it for this level of service.

He diagnosed corroded and leaking evaporator coil in the AC unit. He was able to order part and have it fixed within 1 week. The unit never failed and we did not have to go without AC. We have used them before and will continue to use them. They have always been professional and shown respect for us and our home. They always put covers over their shoes before entering our home. They always treat us and our curious little boys with the utmost respect - answering all they boys questions and not minding the audience while they are working. We would recemmend them for HVAC work.

.I used to work for an engineering firm that was flooded with calls during heavy heat periods in summer, so I knew when we had a problem on Saturday night on one of the hottest days of the year, we were in for a wait. We called MTB based on proximity to our house, and also the reviews that were listed on Angieslist. Sure enough, at 8:00 pm they were swamped, but they took our name, address and phone numbers and told us they would get back to us as within 30 minutes. About 45 minutes later, we called back, and they said they still had not talked to anyone to give the call to - to wait again and they would call us. We received a call back about 30 minutes later from a "Josh", who said he was booked until 3 am, and they would give us a call in the morning at 8:30. Fine, we said - no problem - understanding it was the worst day of the year to need service. The next morning, after 9 o'clock, we still had not received a call to tell us where we were on their call list. We called them - and here the problem started - they did not have any of our information on any list, and they had no one working there named "Josh". Then they said that we would be at least two days away for any service at all. Now, I understand swamped; I understand confused information during an incredibly busy weekend. I don't understand how they could have not had any of our information from the night before on an emergency call. I also do not understand the unapologetic attitude of the dispatcher on Sunday morning. I will never use this company for anything again - that is inexcusable.

Thank you for your comments. While this is not the type of feedback we enjoy getting it is helpful to know when we have disappointed a customer. We increased our weekend staff to accommodate the anticipated call volume that 100 degree weather would bring, however after a couple of days of record breaking high temperatures we could not get to everyone as quickly as we normally would. While the technician (Jason) did have your information he did not get it to our dispatch department in time to call you back by 8:30 am, we apologize for that. We hope that in the future you will consider giving us another opportunity so that we can count you among our many happy customers.

They were the best AC guys I have ever had. They were efficient and friendly. Those guys were awesome.
Description of Work: They fixed the AC unit outside. It was around $500 to fix the AC.The cooling didn't work on the AC. We used them a second time to fix our furnace. It was only $89 to fix the furnace the second time.

Don't recall the amount; however, they were excellent. Heat went out on a Sunday. They responded to my call within 10 minutes and followed with someone on-site within the hour. They re-started the unit fan. Explained that the fan could continue to run without issue indefinitely or it could stop again. They explained that there is no way of predicting, but gave me an option to leave it alone vs. spending $1,500 to replace. I chose to take my chances and they understood.I would highly recommend this company!

I have used MTB's Priority Customer Savings Agreement since 2009, when they installed a completely new Lennox system for AC & gas heat at my home. The repair took a few hours because they had to take apart the system (the inside unit) to disconnect and remove the condenser coil (made of copper pipes with fins. It cools the air which then is blown out through the ducts.) Lennox covered the cost of the condenser coil, but not the labor to replace it. MTB quoted $713 before doing the work, and that's exactly what I paid when it was completed. I got a discount on the parts because I pay an annual fee for their "Priority Customer Agreement". This gives me 15% savings. I have been very happy with MTB. All of their personnel are very professional and courteous.
Description of Work: On 4.27.12 they serviced my AC because I was not getting any cool air. They found that there were leaks in the condenser coil, a major component. This system is only 3 years old. The coil was replaced with no charge, but I had to pay for labor. But I get a discount because of the Customer Savings Agreement.

Very well, see above description of services performed.
Description of Work: Based on Angie's list and neighbor referrals, I called MTB to arrange annual HVAC maintenance an diagnostics for a noise. Scheduling the appointment was easy and the phone staff was very friendly and courteous. On the appointment day, the technician called in advance to alert me that he was on the way and that he might be a few minutes late. I appreciated the alert and the tech's arrival really was just a few minutes later than schedule; it was not a problem at all. The tech who arrived was very clean cut, in uniform and was very courteous and professional, and seemed to really know his stuff (I'm a retired tech support technician and service manager and usually have a good eye for tech. staff quality). After taking a few minutes to confirm my HVAC concerns, including a gas smell I had noticed, he got right to work. After a reasonable time spent checking out both of my HVAC systems, the tech advised that my systems were generally in good shape, with no sign of leaks or malfunctions, except that I did have a gas leak at one of the gas pipe couplings. He provided an estimate of the cost and additional time to orrect this. I approved and the tech proceeded to replace the defective coupling and repair the gas leak. Then, we discussed MTB's maintenance contract options and I purchased an annual service maintenance agreement, which is a big portion of the price I paid and noted earlier in the Angie's Lost feedback form. Overall, I'm very please with the service, professionalism and customer focus that MTB demonstrated in my interactions with them. I recommend MTB for HVAC service.

We have used them for the pass year and a half, we have a service agreement with them and they come out twice a year. They will be here pretty soon. They gave good customer service but, we weren't eligible for a rebate that they had told us that we would be eligible so they gave us the money.
Description of Work: MTB Mechanical Inc We used MTB Mechanical Inc, in December, for service and it didn't cost us anything, they gave us money back.

I signed a contract with them last year, and they even called me to remind me this year that I was due to get my units inspected! The technician came by, told me what was wrong, what I didn’t need, and what I might need down the road. I felt like MTB was honest and upfront. I requested the same technician that did my furnace to do my air conditioner, which they worked out. Everything has been good!

Bobby was very professional. When he arrived, he did a walk-thru of the upstairs and attic, listened to my concerns, and then went straight to work on trying to determine what was causing my issue. The 4 year old upstairs unit had been running continuously since the sun came up, but wasn't able to keep up with outside temps above 75 degrees. Most people would've just added refrigerant, but Bobby noted that the compressor amperage was erratic, and there was a cyclical clicking noise coming from it. He couldn't tell if the refrigerant was low, because the compressor was clearly failing and the needle on his gauge was jumping around. However, suspecting that there was a refrigerant leak, he took a sniffer up to the attic to the most likely component where a leak would occur. Sure enough, the evaporator coil was leaking. And as he was doing all of this, he was also educating me in the process. I knew we had a problem, and I've had coils & compressors replaced before. But never has somebody spent the time to explain it all and demonstrate the specific problem areas like he did. He went to the extra effort to determine the root cause of the problem instead of just fixing a symptom. Our unit, as it turned out, was still under warranty, so all we had to pay for was labor and certain materials, such as refrigerant, that the warranty didn't cover. The cost was perfectly reasonable. It took two visits -- one to perform the troubleshooting and one to install the compressor and coil 2 days later. Bobby handled it from beginning to end, following up by phone exactly as promised, and arriving exactly as scheduled. Upon completion, he cautioned me that it might take 24 hours for the A/C to catch up & cool the upstairs (it was an 85 degree day in March), so I was prepared for a warm evening. However, the upstairs was completely cool by 6pm, just a few hours after he left. Job very well done by an outstanding professional.

I called MTB Mechanical to do a simple check-up on my air system before the summer heat came. It was not working properly. The worker pumped my 1 year old system with a ton of freon and then charged me $1,000. I called management to complain because the worker refused to look for a leak before pumping all the freon in my system. The manager, Jeremy, came out to check for a leak. He found none. No one could explain why I needed so much freon. My air conditioning still did not work properly. He refused to refund me or to come and fix the air conditioning. I ended up having to call another company, who found the problem and fixed it. Additionally, to no surprise, they told me there was way too much freon in my system. I will never call MTB Mechanial again. In fact, they stole $1,000 from me.

Response from MTB Mechanical Inc
The member contacted us on April 6th 2011 and requested a one time heating and cooling system tune-up. Upon arrival we found a new system that was not operational due to being empty of refrigerant. When we recommended that she contact the installing contractor to repair the system under warranty she advised us that it was installed by her brother from Florida, she wanted us to quote repairs. We quoted her the price to recharge the system with refrigerant she gave authorization and asked us to proceed with the tune-up and repairs. We recharged the system, performed a heating and cooling system tune-up and included a leak search at no additional charge. No leaks were found and so we tightened all mechanical fittings as an added precaution. Total amount paid = $849.00. Later that same day we sent our field supervisor to double check the system as a courtesy to the member and again no leaks were found. We were left to assume that the member's brother from Florida lost the equipment charge during the installation of the system. We did this at no charge. On June 2nd, 2011 the member called to say her system was not cooling again. We arrived the same day, it was very hot and we found the equipment was running properly, was not low on refrigerant and was doing all it could for its size. Again we did not charge for the service call. We have not heard from the member since.
