"Under no circumstances would I recommend John Henry’s. The fact that they have such glowing reviews makes me genuinely question whether they’re legitimate or incentivized internally, because my experience was the complete opposite. Nearly three weeks ago, I scheduled a duct cleaning and annual HVAC maintenance. On a Saturday, I received a call informing me they were “too busy” to keep my Monday appointment and wanted to push me out another two weeks. I told them that was unacceptable due to the heavy construction in my home and that I would need to look elsewhere. Suddenly, they were able to fit me in on Tuesday and offered a $50 credit. Tuesday arrives, and the problems start immediately. Two technicians showed up and left black marks on about 15 of my stairs. They initially denied it but eventually wiped them down with a cloth and water. Later, I discovered they somehow got paint inside one of my electrical outlets from dragging their cord across it. I spoke with the manager, who showed no concern or accountability for the damage. I was also informed—after they arrived—that they couldn’t complete my annual maintenance because neither technician was mechanically trained. So once again, I had to reschedule, and someone else came out the next day. The technician on Wednesday was by far the worst part of this entire experience. He was rude, dismissive, and clearly more focused on selling memberships than actually providing service. When I mentioned the $50 credit I had been promised, he looked at me like I was making it up. As he tried to upsell me on their membership, I asked if they could credit the duct cleaning since it’s included in that plan. Despite me telling him they had cleaned my ducts less than 24 hours earlier, he called the office claiming it happened the prior week. While on the phone, I could hear him questioning whether I even deserved the $50 credit I had been explicitly promised. When I asked if the 15% part discount (which is included with the membership I would be paying for monthly over a two-year lock-in) would apply, he acted as if I was asking for something unreasonable and told me I was “getting too many discounts.” None of these were random discounts—they were things they advertised. At this point his behavior confirmed my suspicion that this company prioritizes sales tactics and profit over honesty or customer service. I declined the membership. Once he finalized the bill, it was more than $150 higher than the quote I received the day before. Since then, I’ve called the office three separate times asking for a simple cost breakdown: the technician’s cleaning charges and the UV bulb replacement. The manager still cannot provide this and continues speaking in circles without answering my direct question. Bottom line: Do not hire this company under any circumstances. There are many HVAC, electrical, and plumbing companies that value their customers, communicate honestly, and provide professional service. John Henry’s is not one of them."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

In Omaha, an electrical permit is required for most electrical projects, including new circuit installations and major upgrades. According to the City of Omaha Permits & Inspections Division, homeowners may only obtain permits for minor work in single-family homes they occupy. All panel replacements or service upgrades must be performed by a licensed electrician, and both rough-in and final electrical inspections are mandatory to ensure compliance with local code.

Helpful?

In Omaha, DIY electrical work can save on labor costs, but safety and code compliance are major concerns. The City of Omaha Permits & Inspections Division requires licensed electricians for complex tasks like service upgrades. Hiring a professional ensures your electrical permit and inspection process go smoothly, reduces liability, and helps avoid costly mistakes or insurance issues. For any high-voltage or panel work, professional help is strongly advised.

Helpful?

In Omaha, frequent mistakes include failing to obtain an electrical permit, improper grounding, and using non-code-compliant materials. The City of Omaha Permits & Inspections Division often cites issues like closing walls before passing inspection and skipping required electrical inspections. To avoid hazards and costly rework, always follow local codes, use approved materials, and schedule inspections at the appropriate project stages.

Helpful?

For electrical projects in Omaha, select materials rated for the local climate. Use THHN wire for interior dry spaces and UF-B cable for underground runs, as recommended by the Nebraska State Electrical Board. For outdoor work, weatherproof boxes and GFCI outlets are essential due to Omaha's seasonal weather swings. Always verify that materials meet the latest code requirements before purchase or installation.

Helpful?

After completing electrical work in Omaha, schedule periodic electrical inspections, especially in older homes, as recommended by the Nebraska State Electrical Board. Inspect outdoor outlets and extension cords each spring for weather damage, and test GFCI outlets regularly. During winter, check for overloaded circuits due to increased heating use. Proactive maintenance helps keep your system safe and compliant with local electrical codes.
