"DO NOT RECOMMEND – INSTALLATION ISSUES CAUSED CEILING COLLAPSE Sim Chestnut of Fresh and Clean Heating and Air installed our HVAC unit in 2021 or 2022. Since then, we had recurring issues with the system shutting off due to a full drain pan. In 2023, he stopped responding. Our landlord resumed contact in 2024, and Sim returned to install a pump. The unit stayed on, but water rerouted and pooled in insulation beneath the drain pan. On June 8, 2025, our ceiling collapsed. Sim assessed the damage and blamed the roof. A roofer confirmed the roof (installed within 3 years) was not the issue. Three licensed HVAC techs later identified several install problems: a clogged drain line, unlevel unit, and a rusted, bent pan. The leak stopped once the drain was cleaned and reconnected properly. This review is based on professional evaluations and damage to our home. I will not engage further. Any retaliation, perceived or attempted, will be addressed."

"In one word, PERFECT. First and foremost he is a gentleman always displaying honesty and integrity. He was punctual for all scheduled planning and installation appointments. Mr. Holmes' prices were competitive and his installations totally met our expectations. The whole home generator installation was more complicated due to the transfer switch being located next to the electrical meter on one side of the house and the generator and gas line being located on the opposite side. He is a proficient and efficient electrician and left our home as clean as he found it. I have and will continue to refer Mr. Holmes to friends and associates in need of the services that he offers."

The average cost of a home security system is about $700, ranging from $280 to $1,150. Costs to consider include equipment, surveillance fees, and other additional features. Cost factors that determine your system’s price include the type of security system, materials, labor, activation fees, monthly fees, and permits. Additional features and upgrades may include:
Video surveillance monitoring: $40–$65 per month
Smart home locks: $150

Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate.
Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they’re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.
An accredited, licensed smart home specialist should install your home automation system. For example, a qualified smart home specialist will belong to an organization like the Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association. Licenses for qualified technicians require the technician to demonstrate experience and pass state testing. If you’re ready to install a home automation system, consult multiple technicians in your area to compare services and prices and find the best fit for your job.
The average cost of a home automation system is around $950, but typically ranges from $200 to $1,700, depending on the brand, system features, system size, home size, and location. The highest-end home automation systems can cost anywhere from $10,000 to $150,000, including smart appliances like refrigerators, dishwashers, and ovens that require installing extensive wiring. Any subscriptions for maintenance services will also impact the cost of a home automation system.
