repair on gas furnace
Description of Work: Our technician, Amin, was extremely knowledgeable, professional and very pleasant. The issue we were having did not always occur when the furnace started. I recorded the sound it was making.....Because of course, it never would happen when the technician was here, he readily knew what the problem was just by listening. However, rather than just make the assumption, he cleaned the furnace and looked everything over carefully. FINALLY, after one hour, that noisy sound happened and his assessment was correct. Because it is a furnace that is 21 years old, he did not have the part on his truck. However, he returned the next day with a new part, replaced it and waited for it to run quietly and efficiently before leaving our home. We have only had Charles Heating and AC work on our furnace and AC since they installed it. I highly recommend this business. We have always been satisfied customers. And... thank you, Amin😊

furnace maintenance
Description of Work: Jayson, the technician from Charles, was friendly, knowledgeable and polite. He recommended that I have the capacitor on the furnace replaced as it was functioning below par, which I did. He reminded me that my furnace and air conditioner are 24 years old, reviewed their current special for replacements, but also said the furnace was otherwise in good condition. I’m pleased with the cleaning and maintenance of my furnace.

They were on time, professional, explained in detail what was going to happen.
Description of Work: Cleaned all the ducts and cold air returns in the house and cleaned the furnace. They did a fabulous job and what a difference having the duct worked cleaned makes. I am very pleased with the work. Since it was a year ago, I am unsure of how much I spent I know it was a few hundred dollars. I highly recommend the company,

Plumber was great, only one who ever realized that the previous installation was done incorrectly.
Description of Work: Had a toilet that kept running, they replaced the inside. This plumber discovered that whoever installed the last repair years ago had incorrectly connected part of it, that's why we always had a problem with it. While he was here, he also fixed my shower head at no charge. The plumbing division of Charles One Hour is actually called Benjamin Franklin Plumbing

They are my regular heating and A/C guys. They have been doing it for years. They do fine with the checks. They had installed the furnace and air-conditioning for me. I have no complaints with them. They are good. I am on a contract with them. I spend $20.00 a month roughly so I think it is $200.00 plus a year. I just don't have any problems. They catch my problems before I have problems. Overall, they are excellent. I don't know about the price because I have not compared them to anybody, but I think they are okay. One time I did have a response time problem with them, but they resolved it.
Description of Work: Charles Heating and Air-conditioning does the spring and fall checks on my heating and air-conditioning. I have them come twice a year and do the service.

He did a great job. He came out and diagnosed the problem, and came back the following Monday with a part. They have a flat rate system for payment. He seemed to be very knowledgeable. He took his time in diagnosing the problem. His pricing was pretty straightforward and fair. It included the price of the part plus taxes. It also came with a contract that they would service the furnace for the next year. I signed up a contract with them. The job went very well. I was pretty happy with Charles Heating and Plumbing.

We were appalled at being mislead and paid the bill under protest. We will never have this company on our property again. We would hope that other consumers could be saved this expensive mistake.
Description of Work: Having bought an older house with a HVAC system over 20 years old, we expected problems with the system. Calling Charles "One Hour" Heating and Air, I spoke with Sandy, made an appointment, and was told the service call fee would be $69. The mechanic, Lou, performed a cursory inspection and recommended replacement. He then handed my husband a bill for $181.44. Apparently, the $69 was to ring our doorbell, and the additional $99 was the "inspection".

I guess it's good that we had the air ducts cleaned, but it was unnecessary. Overall, the work did not fix anything and we had to buy space heaters.
Description of Work: The air ducts were cleaned out but to no avail! We had no heat, and cleaning the air ducts did nothing but we had to pay for it regardless.
