"I have had Lighthouse Mechanical do some work in the past and their fee seemed to be reasonable. They were helpful, polite and did good work. However, I am now questioning their fee and service. I called them on a Saturday because my system was not working. The tech was able to come out for a $99.00 diagnostic fee which I thought was reasonable for a weekend and with cold weather starting the next evening needed to get the system fixed. The tech was at my place for a minimum of 3 hours and could not locate the issue. The tech was very nice and tried hard. He even called another technician on the phone for assistance. He said he would need to come back the next day with another tech to figure out the issue. The next morning, Sunday, they both came and after more than an hour determined it was the defrost board on the heat pump. As parts places were closed they would need to come back on Monday to install a new board. They were able to do a bypass and get the heat pump to run in the meantime. The tech said the board would run $200 to $300 tops to install price. The office calls me Monday morning and it will be $408 plus the $99 diagnostic fee, Its extremely cold outside so can't really argue and price it out elsewhere. So that Monday after the call about the price another tech shows up with the board and completes the install successfully. Again nice tech even when he had to be outside working in the cold. I receive my invoice and later that day I take a moment to check the part number of the board against the internet to check pricing... $115 was the highest price I could fine. Called the person from the office to see why I was charged $408 plus the $99 diagnostic fee as this didn't add up. I understand mark-up but that's a big mark up on a $115 part and less than an hour’s labor to install it. The person that gave me the price was out and would call me back. No call back that day so I called again the next day and she answered. Her response to me is that they charge a flat fee not based on the part cost or actual installation fee but a national average. And also as they are a Trane dealer and I have a Carrier unit it is more expensive. Customers need to be aware of this. Won't be calling them again. Nice techs but 5 hours plus over two days to figure out the issue and their pricing scheme is not fair. I will check elsewhere next time."

"Pleased with service and equipment installed. Arrived a little late first day, weather halted work late that afternoon, so they had to come back and worked a full second day. So, it took a little longer than planned, but all good in the end. Obtained quotes from two other businesses for comparable equipment/installation; Rose Bros. quoted best price."

"I called Saturday morning and told them what it was doing. The technician was at my house within two hours. He checked it out. Refilled my fluids and checked my connections. I had heat again. They were very friendly and professional. Would highly recommend them."

"The 2 workman showed up on time, and were fabulous. They were extremely careful with the appliances, made sure everything was installed and working correctly, and cleaned up after themselves. I haven't received that level of professionalism in many years."

"We own a home-based business which relies heavily on our computers operating efficiently. We have had a service contract with another computer repair business for several years. Recently when we were having problems with our computers, we tried contacting our service contractor multiple times. He never responded. Feeling frustrated, I contacted James at North Alabama Technical Services and explained our situation. He instantly came to our rescue. He "cleaned-up" our computers and took care of all the problems we were experiencing. He went above and beyond to help us in our dire time of need. We would strongly recommend James and his company for computer service needs. We have now retained him on a service contract and are looking forward to working with him in the future."

"We had our ancient oil-fired boiler replaced with a natural gas, modern unit and separate hot water heater. On the one hand, it seemed like anything that could go wrong, did go wrong. On the other, we are very happy with the end result. The reason for my excellent rating is that this company responded to all of the issues quickly and decently. When a water leak under the house and another issue caused us to be without water (and hot water) for a night, they sent us to a hotel and paid for it. The owner, Andy Anderson, is a stand up guy. The (many!) extra pieces of work that had to be done (some possibly caused by the workers, but equally possibly due to old piping in a 96 year old house) were done at no extra cost to us, because he stands by his company, the quality of work, and cares about his company's reputation. If one guy didn't know how to do something, another was sent to deal with it, and make it right. Andy saw to the final check personally, which meant a lot to us- the end result is a perfectly functioning boiler and hot water heater. We would highly recommend this company and we are very happy."

"The response was greater than expected. The situation was carefully explained with extensive views and photos. Alternatives were offered to try to mitigate the expense. Because insurance compensation was in doubt, alternatives were considered and discussed. We decided to gut the entire shower; remove the jacuzzi and go for a spa like design. It worked out beautifully and we are greatly pleased with the careful work."

"That was not a happy experience.  They were very hard to reach.  They contacted me and ask me when they would come and take advantage of the deal.  I emailed them back, they didn’t respond.  I emailed them again and I emailed them again.  The third time I emailed them, I said, if I don’t hear from you within 24 hours, I’m going to cancel through Angie’s List.  Somebody called and left a message.  I called the next morning and the phone was disconnected.  I had somebody else on the phone, he said I was crazy to think the phone was disconnected because it wasn’t but it was.  Somebody called me and they arrange to come.  The finally did come.  They did what they were supposed to do on the chimney but we had an inspector come in because we are selling the house.  They missed something important that I have to fix.  They apparently didn’t do the job of doing the crown which I paid extra for.  I’m going to have to pay another chimney service to do that.  I am happy with them at all.  They said I need to replace a dent and they did ask $400 more and they supposedly fixed the crown of the chimney for another $125 but it turned out that they did not do such a good job on that.  The crown wasn’t good.  I expected them to find extra things to do but I expect them to do them right."

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

It takes about five to 10 minutes for heat to reach a radiator, then about one hour until the radiator fully heats up a room. The exact duration depends on the size of the room and how far away the radiator is from the boiler heating system. Heating up an entire house could take up to two hours.

Many utility companies and government programs offer rebates or incentives for the installation of high-efficiency propane boilers. These can offset upfront costs and improve your return on investment. Check with your local utility or installer for current offers. Incentives vary by state and provider, so exploring regional programs can help maximize your savings.

The best way to compare HVAC quotes is getting a few detailed quotes from local companies with good reputations. Then, go over the quotes line by line. Protect yourself by insisting on in-person estimates that include equipment manufacturer names, model numbers, SEER ratings, amounts and numbers of materials, details of warranties on equipment and labor, and other specifics. 

Knowing the exact equipment and materials is the only way that you can fairly compare quotes. Quotes that are much lower than others can be a sign that the company isn’t providing the best quality service or materials.

Costs range from $3,000 to $7,500, depending on system size and efficiency.

There are several types of home radiators, and the most common are steam heat radiators, electric radiators, and dual-fuel radiators. Steam heat radiators are connected to a boiler. Electric radiators can operate without being connected to anything else—they just need an electrical outlet. If you have a dual-fuel radiator, you’ll see a valve at the bottom of the system with a wire coming out of it and going into a wall. These are often your towel radiators in the bathroom. The type of radiator you have will impact how you turn it on.
