"We wanted the main waterline from house to street, and hot water heater replaced. After reading reviews, we chose Wisler Plumbing and Heating to do this work. Wisler reached out daily in advance to let us know who was coming to perform the work. Each employee we met was very professional, responsive, and diligent with their duties. Davey provided us with a quote for this work. Hats off to Matt for replacing the water heater! The waterline was a difficult project, due to the location. Adam and Wes did an outstanding job, excavating, replacing the water line, and for their work on restoring our yard. We will definitely use Wisler Plumbing and Heating again for any projects we may have in the future!"

"I hired A-1 Duct Cleaning Services on two occasions, one a mobile home with a prior mouse infestation within the ductwork. Mr. Thomas was very prompt and thorough with his cleaning, sanitizing and mold remediation. My son, who has allergies, moved into the trailer afterwards and has commented more than once that he has had no problems. Mr. Thomas also cleaned and sanitized the ductwork in my newly-built home. For anyone concerned about the quality of air in their home, I highly recommend A-1 Duct Cleaning Services. You can't put a price on the peace of mind that comes with a clean air system! I'm very satisfied."

"I called at noon, needing someone to come out that day because we were leaving the next day and would be away for some time, but all the technician were tied up. Made the appointment for the next day, we would leave late to get going. At 4:30 pm the day I called they were able to free up a technician and by 6:30 pm the AC was up and running again... very much appreciated the office working to get someone to us quickly, and our technician Robbie was knowledgeable, courteous, friendly and efficient."

Wisler Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric proudly serves Roanoke and surrounding area, all of Franklin County, and everyone located around Smith Mountain Lake. \n \nWhen our dad Daniel Wisler put our name on his business back in 1986, he committed to doing what was fair and right. He led by example and he taught us to do the same. He taught us to stand up, work hard through adversity; to take responsibility for our mistakes. It's not easy, but it's the difference between a business that survives and a business that thrives. \n \nWislers' foundation of beliefs lights our way, from policies we live by to the people we hire.

"When we finished building our home and hired The Clean Standard for the post construction cleaning before moving in. Megan did an amazing job. There was construction dust everywhere, along with residue on the floors, cabinets, windows, trim, and fixtures, and she was incredibly thorough. By the time she finished, the house finally felt like a home instead of a construction site. Everything looked fresh, polished, and move-in ready. She paid attention to details we honestly would have missed ourselves. If you?ve just built or remodeled a home and need someone who knows how to handle a true post construction clean, I highly recommend The Clean Standard."

Hello my name's Lewis haddox and I am a Handy man servicing the roanoke , salem va and surrounding areas.If you’re looking for someone who actually enjoys fixing the leaky faucet, diagnosing the weird noise from the furnace, and leaving a workspace cleaner than they found it—let’s talk.With over 10 years of hands-on handyman experience, I’ve seen it all. From sagging drywall and broken drawer slides to full property turnovers, I bring a can-do attitude and a toolbag full of solutions. But what really sets me apart is my HVAC certification. While most handymen have to call in a specialist, I’m the one who stays to fix the AC or troubleshoot the furnace. That saves you time, money.I take real pride in every job big or small and working for myself allows me to do even the smallest jobs most larger services wont.So next time you need help and want someone respectful, knowledgeable and will be there when scheduled till jobs completed give me a call.Always free estimates hope I can help.

Air Conditioning FAQs, answered by experts

If your drain line is clogged, your AC might stop cooling, shut down, or refuse to turn on at all. Otherwise, you might see your AC leaking water, find standing water or water damage near the unit, or notice a musty smell coming out of your air conditioner or vents.

The best way to reduce heat upstairs is to release it by opening a window. Hot air rises, and if you can create some airflow by opening a window upstairs and also one on a lower level, the hot air should be pushed out of the home. Remember that fans pointing out the window do a much better job of circulating air than fans pointing into the home.

You need to know the square footage of your home first. Multiply that number by 20, which will get you the BTUs (British Thermal Units) needed to cool your home efficiently. Homes up to 1,000 square feet usually need a 1.5-ton unit; homes 1,000 to 1,200 square feet usually need a 1.75-ton unit, and homes 1,200 to 1,400 square feet usually need a 1.9-ton unit. Talk to a local pro for more specific advice on your home. 

Set your house temperature between 55 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit while on vacation, depending on the season. If it’s winter, don’t go below 55 degrees. In the summer, the best AC temperature for energy savings is no higher than 85 degrees. You can save anywhere from 10% to 15% on your energy costs by adjusting the temperature while you’re away. If you have a smart thermostat, set up vacation modes for each season. On your way home, turn off vacation mode to allow the home to warm up or cool down before you arrive.

Your AC might not cool after a power outage because of a tripped circuit breaker, blown fuse, or damage to the compressor or capacitor. If you notice your AC not working after a power outage, in most cases, the breaker has tripped or the system has built-in brownout and blackout protection. Reboot the AC by turning it off at the thermostat, resetting the circuit breaker, and waiting 30 minutes to turn the AC on again.
