"I sent a message to the company in the late evening regarding my broken central AC and Jason was here Tuesday morning to look at it. He tried to repair it but was not able to due to the age of the unit and the damage. We needed a new unit and he was here to put it in first thing Wednesday morning. Took him two hours and our AC was working. He was nice and professional. We felt the price was reasonable. Would use him again and recommend his business."

“We provide quality services to our customers satisfaction”
"Also known as 'Gee HVAC Services', which is the company I thought I hired. They had 5 reviews and had 4 stars so I was fine with that. I only noticed that it was Granty's Topline Services when we got our receipt. We called initially to get heating fixed in an extension room. After they came the heat in the whole rest of the house went out. That's when I checked the receipt and then realized that this is not the company I thought I hired. When I found them on Yelp I thought they were Gee HVAC Services. That's when I saw the 1 star reviews and realized we were scammed. We literally paid $600+ to have our heat broken in the entire house. On top of that, after we called to have him come back and fix it, the heat was on in the house, but 2 hours later there was smoke coming out of the boiler room and water was EVERYWHERE. He said it was because we needed to change the water valve, but this problem didn't happen until he came to break it. I am now in tears and it is going to be 9 degrees tomorrow night and I currently have Covid. This has been an absolute disaster. Edit: I came back to do an update since we finally got a legit HVAC person in to fix the mess Tony made. First of all, he didn't do a tune up. Or at least the guy who fixed this said it was the shoddiest work he's ever seen. Secondly, he almost killed us. He bypassed the controller and hooked up the boiler to the always on mode, so pretty soon there was steam coming out of our boiler room and it was chugging out boiling water. It eventually would have exploded. I am considering any legal action I can and will review on every single site I can to warn people to stay away. This man is a crook. Also, my husband told me when he was first here and was looking at the radiator in a different room he had water spewing everywhere. I didn't know this at the time because I was sick in bed with Covid and my husband didn't want to upset me. Absolute disaster. I was fooled by the other business name he 'works' under (really steals)."

FAQs for sewer cleaning projects in Saint James, NY
In most states, companies that perform sewer cleaning services don’t need specific licensing, but you should always ensure you hire a licensed and certified plumber to get the work done. You can use our state licensing tool to check whether the potential sewer cleaning company holds a plumber’s certification and license. Hiring a certified sewer cleaning services guarantees that the work will be done safely, there won’t be additional damage done to your home, and the problem will be fixed.
The average cost to snake your main sewer line is around $250 for a simple snake. Most sewer line specialists charge between $45 and $200 per hour for main sewer line snaking, so the time involved plays a major role. The price you’ll pay will depend on the severity of the clog, the item causing the backup, how long it takes to remove the item, and more. A more severe issue that requires unclogging a main sewer line will cost $3,100 on average.
There are a few signs of a clog in your main sewer line that you should keep in mind.
Common signs of a sewer line clog:
Multiple fixtures in your home drain slowly
Drains in your home gurgle during or after draining
Water backs up into your sewer line cleanout
You notice foul odors in your home
The best way to confirm that your main sewer line is clogged is to hire a professional plumber to assess the situation and use a camera to inspect the inside.
In most cases, drain cleaners will not clear a clogged sewer line, and they’re likely to damage your plumbing. Sewer lines are several inches wide, meaning any material that clogs it will need to be large. Drain cleaner can work on small clogs, but it usually won’t clear a larger one in a sewer main. Drain cleaners can also easily damage and corrode your plumbing with prolonged contact, and a clog will keep the cleaner in contact with the pipes for an extended period. Hire a professional sewer cleaner instead for a safe fix.
You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It’s always best to hire a professional sewer cleaner near you to handle this type of work.
