We called Mike's Plumbing and was told someone would call me back soon. Ram called back within 20 minutes but they were booked for the week so they didn't have any appointments available until Monday the 14th unless someone else cancelled their appointment before Monday. Ram scheduled a service call for Monday in case we couldn't find another plumber to fix the hot water heater before the weekend. We were able to schedule a service call for Thursday with All Valley Plumbing and AC Co. They showed up, determined the problem and ordered the part and today (Friday) the part came in and they were able to replace the electronic part that had failed. I then called Mike's Plumbing back to cancel the Monday appointment. Ram was friendly and professional, and even though Mike's Plumbing didn't perform the service, we would not hesitate in calling them again if needed.

She scheduled Saul for the next day to diagnose and possibly fix the problem. Yoli called on Thursday morning to let us know Saul was on his way. Saul should up within the 30-minute time Yoli said he would. He determined the electronic part that controls the power and heating elements was out and called Rheem to order the part and have it sent to us at home. Saul gave us an invoice for $0.00 since this was covered under Rheem's warranty. Today, Friday the 11th, the part arrived before 1 pm. We called Yoli and she scheduled Saul to come back to our house within an hour. Saul showed up within an hour of our call and replaced the bad part, flipped on the breaker and hot water heaters power LED came on. Saul gave us a second invoice, again for $0.00 since this was also covered under Rheem's warranty. Yoli and Saul were both friendly and professional. We would definitely call All Valley Plumbing and AC Co. again if needed.

"The initial work was performed, (Nov. '18); somewhat expensive! But I agreed too: I'm elderly & disabled, with medical issues and breathing alignments. I needed my home warm! In Mar. '19 I tried to turn on my AC; it didn't work. I called the tech who worked on heater and ask if he might have accidentally done something that would cause my AC not too work, he said no! He offered to come and check my system and diagnose the problem for $50.00 CASH, (service fee), and give me an estimate to repair AC. Called another company and they found a wire that sends signal to condenser, (outside unit), had been looped, (disconnected); located in the area that tech worked on my heater! I was charged $120.00 for diagnostic time to find problem and fix. I called Owner Mark Sullivan and explained my issues and offered him opportunity to send his service manger to verify my story, he refused! Also their tech left trash and some new parts weren't installed, and others that weren't installed properly! Be very careful if you hire this Company, NOT VERY HONEST!!! Owner Mark Sullivan also hung- up the phone while I was talking! This from an owner of a business acting like a child! We as home owners hire service contractors, that are suppose to be PROfessionals to properly diagnose and repair problems in our homes and WE put our trust in them to preform an honest repair, and in my case because the work area was in the attic I was cheated!

FAQs for heating and air conditioning service projects in Combes, TX
Knowing how long your existing HVAC units can last is essential to determine if you need a repair or replacement. Typically, most modern air conditioning units can last between 15 to 20 years, and most furnaces can work properly for 15 to 30 years. If your HVAC system is on the older side and you decide to replace one unit, it might make sense to replace both simultaneously to save on costs and future hassle.
While different HVAC contractors might offer higher or lower prices than competitors, the best time to replace your HVAC system is when customer demand is low. The beginning of summer and the beginning of winter bring the most demand for HVAC systems, so if you can, consider replacing your HVAC units in the early spring or fall. Many HVAC companies offer special off-season coupons that help lower the overall cost.
The average cost to hire an HVAC contractor is between $50 and $150 per hour if charging hourly. However, some HVAC contractors will charge a flat fee by the type of service they are performing—for example, an inspection can cost between $150 to $500. Keep in mind that emergency repairs—which are made after business hours or around major holidays—generally cost more than scheduled repairs.
Yes, most states require HVAC technicians to be certified, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed HVAC technician could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The average cost of HVAC repairs is around $350. However, that price can be as low as $100 or as high as $2,000 or more, depending on the repair. For example, replacing a capacitor is a relatively inexpensive repair, ranging from $100 to $500. However, a compressor repair is a more expensive repair, ranging from $750 to $2,000.
