2020 Proud Super Service Award winning company on Angie's List! With over 30 years of combined professional HVAC experience at ECC our comfort team of professionals are there to provide residential & commercial quality service & installation. We are your "Elite Fujitsu Ductless HVAC installers" and we offer our customers "peace of mind" with low-cost service plans that will prevent premature system failure, lower utility costs, optimize system performance & help provide healthier air quality for you & your family! Contact us today, we look forward to servicing you soon!

"East Coast comfort did the most horrible thing to us, and they have treated us with utter contempt. We have been with East Coast Comfort since they began when Ed McCollum and Anthony Mongeluzi started the company in 2006. Both Ed and Anthony were to our home in the early years of their business, performing maintenance and repairs, and one of them was here when they installed our current unit. We gave them a favorable review on Angie’s List, and we have never had any complaints about them in almost 20 years, until Lisa Hawthorne. We schedule routing maintenance, so we do not have equipment failures and outages. We have repeatedly been asked by Ms. Hawthorne of East Coast Comfort to reschedule our maintenance appointments, and we have always acquiesced. This occurred again a few weeks ago, and we rescheduled for last week. Ms. Hawthorne again called the day before our scheduled maintenance appointment last week, asked again to change the appointment because of the volume of emergency calls they were receiving, and we agreed as long as Ms. Hawthorne promised we would be given priority scheduling if our system went down. The next day, our air conditioning failed, and I contacted Ms. Hawthorne. A technician came to our home on the afternoon of the next day, but he said parts had to be ordered, and it could be days before they would arrive. I have emails supporting that we requested Ms. Hawthorne to order the needed parts, and she emailed back that the parts would be $1500.00 and labor $500.00. Though we made it clear from our emails that we wanted to get the system repaired as quickly as possible, she did not order the parts and would not grant us priority scheduling. When we learned of this betrayal, we contacted William Henderson Heating, Cooling, Plumbing, and Electrical Services. They worked us into their schedule for same-day service. I have an email exchange that proves how disdainful Ms. Hawthorne was to longtime customers of East Coast Comfort, both of us senior citizens, and one with a cardiac condition. A request we made to Ms. Hawthorne to speak with Mr. McCollum or Mr. Mongeluzi was ignored. In other words, other people had their systems repaired because of our kindness, so we can swelter in the heat and humidity. I consider their behavior toward us to be elder abuse. Good riddance East Coast Comfort, we are now receiving our comfort from William Henderson."

He was able to address the cause of the malfunction; much to our relief, as we thought we might have to have a new toilet installed or a much more complicated repair. Tom also came out to our home before the start of his official workday, to make sure that the issue was handled immediately. THANK YOU, TOM!!"

We are a family owned business and specialize in Water heater installation, removal, and repair for all manufacturers and models. We do everything water heater related including pressure reducing valves, thermal expansion tanks, water shut off valves, leak repair etc. Promised to be quick in responce, fast, efficient and knowledgeable. Over 13 years of experience in the field.

"Wow, blown away by the work Jeff and Water Heaters in a Hurry did. I am stunned by the professionalism, honesty and transparency, the depth of their skill and knowledge, and the downright far more than reasonable charge for their service. I had a tankless water heater replaced. It took me weeks until I got to Jeff and WHIAH, so many people gave me the runaround, not following through even on a quote, suggesting absurd costs like $3K+ for labor. Why's it so hard to find someone honest, dependable, professional, and competent these days? As soon as I was in contact with Jeff, a huge weight came off my shoulders because I knew I was now in the right hands. Empathic, knowledgeable, patient and transparent... and fast! When they installed, they identified and rectified many mistakes made by the person who installed the last one 5 years ago. They thoroughly checked the work when done, even safety checks. The labor cost was half the high end of others. HIRE THESE GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Trust me."

"I can't say enough about working with Diane at Carriage House II. I found them via an internet search. Diane keep me informed about every step of the project. Two of the chairs were done in a beautiful large paisley print, which they perfectly matched. The other four were done in a subdued brown tweed, subtly picking up the colors in the paisley print. They not only upholstered the chairs, but also strengthened them and fixed a broken one. The chairs are better then they have ever been. I can't thank them enough. My dining room has a designer look with these "new" chairs."

Subcontractors questions, answered by experts

The requirement for building permits varies by location, but most building departments will require permits for any changes to the structural components of a home. They’ll also require them for changes to the plumbing, electrical, and HVAC components, as well as any permanent improvements to the land, including concrete patios or foundations for additions or outbuildings. You also might need permits for things like roof replacement and window replacement, depending on your local government.

Yes, you can finance new construction using a construction loan or a construction-to-permanent loan, or you can use a home equity line of credit or a cash-out refinance if you’re building a second home. Some mortgagors may have restrictions on DIY house builds, so be sure to check that you can get financing before starting your project.

While it can be easy to reupholster small items like outdoor cushions or pillows yourself, bigger projects are better left to the professionals. Hiring a professional reupholstery service is the best way to ensure your furniture is properly fixed, especially if you’re working with larger pieces, like couches, or high-end materials, like leather, where mistakes can be costly.

Yes, most general contractors require a down payment for project completion. A reasonable down payment for a contractor is 10% to 25% of the total project cost, though that will vary based on project size and location. The down payment helps cover the upfront costs of materials and permits and helps ensure payment for the project at hand. 

Depending on your structure, you may not need planning permission. Major excavation, anything that changes the external appearance of your home, or any construction that will affect your neighbors will need planning permission. However, no planning permission is required if you’re just converting an existing space into a root cellar.
