Once again, Brown’s came through like the total pros they are. After last week’s heavy rains, my crawlspace flooded (because the sump pump failed) and drowned my furnace. Brown’s put me in touch with New Method Restoration to have the water pumped out. Brown’s then installed a new sump pump that same day and a new furnace the next day. Within 28 hours things were back to normal. As a customer of over 30 years, I cannot overstate how very competent, totally professional, absolutely dependable and completely friendly their office staff and technicians are nor how much confidence I have in them. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

I had an annual contract with Browns for preventative maintenance and for priority if an emergency occurred. Multiple times I was cancelled on the day of the appointment often without any notice. Very unprofessional and the worst customer service that I have ever experienced from a service provider. Very sad for a business that prides itself on being a mom & pop shop that cares for their customers. I cancelled the contract because they never fulfilled their obligations to actually make a visit to ensure that my systems were in proper working order.

They never replaced the sump pump. They were recommended by a neighbor who has the same house. They told me my unit was different and would be double the price. My unit is the exactly the same . They charged me $200 to tell me that. I only had them come to be proactive. They are thieves and the plumber had no idea what he was doing.
Response from BROWN'S HEATING, COOLING, PLUMBING & HOME SERVICES
"Ms. Magrini: We have reached out to you. There were distinct differences in what you had asked for regarding a sump pump, which increased the estimate and then we did a minor plumbing drain clearing while there as well. I hoped you would have left with a feeling of trust, but I hear you did not. That is something I will work on with my Plumbing Technician, communication. Again, my apologies for not feeling and getting the experience of excellence we always seek to offer our clients."

Well, Chris came late to our home on Friday of Labor Day weekend, and after a thorough inspection, put our minds at ease. Brown's technicians are not all as nice or as professional as Chris, but I've come to trust them for my heating and A/C needs.

Beware!!! Do not do business with this company as they are deceiving and will not stand behind their work! Should something go wrong with the service they provide they will deflect your calls, promise to call back and will not do so. It took me over a month and at least half a dozen calls to get them to refund a part they installed that didn't work. Furthermore, they only refunded a portion of the cost and claimed that $240 was for labor. When confronted, they rationalized the $240 by stating their service people had to come to my residence several times (15 minutes to confirm the part didn't work and another 10 minutes to retrieve the part). When speaking with them they tried to blame me for getting another contractor to complete the work. Will never do business with this unethical and dishonest company again!
Response from BROWN'S HEATING, COOLING, PLUMBING & HOME SERVICES
"Hello I was disappointed to hear your feedback. Brown's always stands behind their work and the products we install. We sought to make the repair as soon as the gas to your home was turned back on and to our frustration as well, the part used for the repair was a universal and in this case your heating system did not operate properly with the universal part. We expedited the exact match for your system repair and in this short time you had your system replaced by another company. I apologize for not meeting your expectations. We sincerely look to exceeding expectations for each client. We take all feedback seriously and will take your poor experience with us into better coaching for our team."

I needed a certification for a gas fireplace for a CO. Brown's Heating and Cooling was recommended. The cost was so low I had doubts but was pleasantly surprised by the level of expertise and care that their service technician, Dave took. He was personable and polite and showed a good knowledge of the job. Thanks, Dave and thanks to Brown's Heating and Cooling for knowing the importance of good service. I would call them first if I needed an HVAC company!

Installation crew was caring, neat, and punctual. They worked as a team and completed the attic installation within one day. All the old equipment and debris was removed. They were polite and positive and kept us informed. I used them two weeks later to correct a plumbing leak, and experienced punctual caring service.

Hired Brown's to do home repairs around the house (damaged trim, new bathroom mirror, etc) and for some minor custom work in my living room (wainscoting). Punctual, professional and top notch in quality. They are not the cheapest, but they are the best value since I did not have to call them back to clean up shotty work and the work is pristine. That is value to me. I've had the contractor who bids low but is unreliable. No thanks. Quite pleased.

The Guys just left ! I can not believe all the work they did in just 2 days! New heating and cooling system and water heater. They seemed to never stop. I thiunk they left my basement cleaner than it was before the job. We were lucky that no heat or air conditioning was needed during this installation. Things were old but not an emergency. I would highly recommend Browns to anyone looking to update or repair their HVAC systems. You will not be disappointed!

Had their plumber come over to check on the wax seal of our toilet bowl. Work performed involved removing toilet, replacing wax ring, resecuring existing flange, and reinstalling toilet. Time spent about 2 hours. Parts required were a new wax ring and a few bolts (very negligible material costs). Charge was $734.59, which I paid. Everyone I mentioned this to afterwards told me the charge was excessive. Contacted General Manager Doug Brown to ask if there was a mistake and never got a reply. Then I contacted The firm's President Carolyn Brown who likewise did not extend the courtesy of a reply. Very unprofessional! All I can conclude is that I got ripped off.

Ray was very responsive and offered really helpful feedback on the status of my 1970's toilet which I had been considering replacing (very limited options due to non-standard rough-in). He gave me some great tips on keeping the toilet running well, and I feel his comments were honest and in my best interest regarding issues with specific manufacturers (Delta faucets - drip issue), and pros-cons of replacing old shower handles. I do think the price was a bit high, $100 for visit, $84(with tax) for replacing these 2 minor parts with parts that I provided. However, trust goes a long way, so I will likely call Brown's next time I need a plumber.

I am very satisfied with my decision to hire Brown's Plumbing. This job took longer than expected and the extremely courteous technician made sure it was successfully completed before leaving. I feel secure in knowing that if any plumbing services are needed in the future, I would not hesitate to call Brown's Plumbing.

Excellent ! I called after hours and got the technician at the house within one hour !!! Furnace diagnosed as having a broken motor blower... could not be repaired that night and the part was still under warranty. Kevin the technician returned two days later as I could not be home the next day and installed a brand new motor blower covered under warranty including the labor. Total cost $ 0 . Can ask for anything more !
