Hi folks. My name is Rakim and I and my son Charles own and operate this company together and are blessed to be given the opportunity to do so. I am a N.A.T.E. certified Master Tradesman and a father of 8. I'm training my son in the HVAC trade and on how to be successful while operating a business with integrity. Charles is a graduate of Monacan High School and J. Sergeant Reynolds Community College and has been in the trade for several years now. I have worked for a few of the largest and smallest HVAC companies in the area over the years and I know everything they are doing right and what they are doing wrong. We get it. We believe we can do a better job at service and keep the price more reasonable. So far we have proven that to be true. We are so sincerely appreciative of you helping us grow and being a part of our success story.

Services we offer
Your Community Heating & cooling offers the best in professional maintenance, repair, replacement and installation of the following equipment; heat pumps, air conditioners, gas furnaces, duct systems, packaged units including rooftop for resident and light commercial.
First of all, I contacted Rakim with short notice of an emergency job that needed to be done. The person I referred him to was in a dire strait situation ( there was no heat in the home) and the weather was frigid cold. He showed up on time, assessed the situation, and immediately took action and got the job done! He is honest, fair, and above all has a great personality and has a genuine concern for people. I recommend Rakim and his son for any job big or small because he will do what is best for the situation and not take advantage of you. He is also very knowledgeable about what he’s doing.

They did an excellent job getting my AC nice and cold for the summer. They were unable to check other HVAC components on the scheduled date due to a locked box, but they returned and performed the inspection another time at no additional cost!

Your Community Heating and Cooling handled our repair. Rakim, the company owner came out the same day, spent some time to thoroughly examine our heat pump. The compressor was not working. He attempted to perform maintenance on the compressor to "buy us some extra time" with the unit but was unable to make it work. Rakim offered two solutions, and recommended what he thought was the best plan of action. We agreed and chose to replace the heat pump. The diagnosis visit was timely and inexpensive ($80) for the level of professionalism we received. Rakim came out the next day, and replaced our unit (a York) with a higher quality Rheem. The work took approximately 2 hours (maybe less) and within a few hours, the temperature in our house decreased from 87 degrees to 75, and when we woke the next morning the house temp was 70 degrees. By the way, both visits occurred between 7 and 9 PM. Rakim recognized our need, and gave selflessly of his time and experience providing us with excellent service. I would recommend that you choose Your Community Heating and Cooling for your needs as well. Both visits were $2330.00. Extremely pleased with all facets.

Mr. Rakim Shahid, owner of "Your Community Heating and Cooling" is a professional. He was always extremely responsive in answering questions and providing quotes for option A, B or C systems. He showed up exactly when he said he would for contract preparation/signing and system installation. He did exactly what he said he would do and when he would do it. He and his team replaced a 19 yr old Rheem HVAC with a new Rheem heat pump and air handler. The entire process was very smooth, no surprises and craftsmanship of the installation is evident. I am pleased with the results and would have no reservations in recommending his services. I will choose his company again in the future.

I was very impressed with the level of service and professionalism I received from a smaller firm and I didn’t feel like I was just another service call like I do with some of the larger companies. Rakim took the time to explain what needed to be done to repair my a/c and even shared goods tips on how to get the most life from my equipment. I will definitely recommend him.

Your Community Heating and Cooling is top notch. Clearly experts in their field. It’s like anything else - when you find great people to work with, you stick with them. That’s Your Community for me. They’ve performed maintenance and repairs and both the units at my primary residence and also the one at my rental property. When the time came for replacement of some units, their work again was top notch. Also - they are some of the most honest men I’ve ever met. They won’t gouge you on costs, which are always very reasonable. Simply put, it’s hard to find honest folks anymore that take the kind of pride and care they do with their work at the level of professionalism that they do. I have peace of mind knowing all of my HVAC needs are handled by Your Community Heating and Cooling.
