They do a really good job. They are fair. They'll give you a bid before they do the actual work. They're a little higher than some places but they do the better quality work.

It all went just fine. He also put in an air filtration system that was included in the unit. We have worked with Jerry and Mike for years: Jerry does more of the plumbing and some electrical work, but Mike takes care of all the HVAC.
