When a pre-existing problem in the basement plumbing prevented my new hot water heater from supplying hot water to my washing machine, they scheduled a plumber to fix it promptly at a reasonable cost. There were a couple of minor details that they needed to come back and fix and they did this promptly, as well. They were also flexible about waiting for payment while we awaited 3rd party financing of the energy efficiency loan. Our house is now cozy and warm on the coldest days of winter, with an endless supply of hot water.

There was someone there on hand to take the call at that time and within 15 minutes Brian, the owner, had called me back. We discussed options, and after hanging up and calling me back, had located two inexpensive but good quality boilers to install. The men were on site with the boilers by 9am. It took the two men 10 hours to install the new furnaces, a lot of hard work. They were diligent and professional, and they stayed on task to get the job done. They knew all the features required to be installed to be conformant with code. The boilers work very well. I later received independent confirmation that the boilers were good ones from Vermont Gas. Finally, the bill, when it came, was quite reasonable for two boiler installation, especially considering the rush nature of the job. So overall, when Falcon needed to be there, they were there with the men and equipment necessary to make the situation right. The did so with good communication an courtesy. And they did so without charging an arm and a leg for the privilege.

Highly professional in everything they did. The McGovern brothers plus all members of the trades made installing our new furnace, air conditioning and hot water heater seem like a walk in the park. Always efficient and courteous.

Not trustworthy. Hired them twice and both times they padded the bills. When I called the manufacturer of my heating system to inquire as to how much the replaced valve would cost they said that my system didn't even have such a valve, and then gasped loudly at how much E&M was charging me...

I solicited bids from several area heating contractors and VEC was the only one to respond with an actual bid. They recommended quality equipment that is reliable, efficient and quiet. The cost was reasonable for the scope of work. Their crew was very professional from start to finish. ...

"During the heat dome days we found out our air conditioning needed recharging. They insisted on up front payment (first red flag) then quoted over $800 to refill the units (2). They did not look for nor try to fix the leak but instead gave me a proposal over $3,000 to come back and fix the unit(1). I used them because they were the ones who could come the quickest. Never again."

"I strongly caution anyone considering doing business with this company. I gave them a deposit of $4,428.65, and when I canceled a week later they kept almost $900 of it even though my service was not for another 6 weeks. You do sign a very simple, clearly stated document that says: should you cancel beyond three business days, you understand your deposit is non-refundable. Northern Basements may choose to refund depending on cancellation circumstances I fully acknowledge that I canceled a few days outside that window, but I hoped an honest company that cares about customers and referrals would choose to provide a full refund. I am a sucker for hoping that. They chose to risk my impression, referral, and review for $885.53. If nothing else comes out of this, I hope everyone reading at least goes in knowing that this statement on their contract is a real threat and your deposit is a hostage. Even Air b and bs offer full refunds on deposits within just a few days of their arrival date. 3 days to cancel with service not scheduled for 6 weeks out, Come on man. No materials were used. No service workers time was taken. The manager justified the 20% withholding as credit card fees, restocking fees, time and resources for the estimate, and administrative fees. I wholly accepted responsibility for the credit card fees and time of Paul, the gentleman who performed the assessment, and I offered to settle at 10%. I still believe any reputable company would have provided a full refund at this point in a project, or at most deduct the credit card fees because nothing more went into this beyond what would have normally been a free estimate. The further arguments the manager made for the additional fees were the scheduling of their team and the allocation of materials for my project. Complete nonsense, especially when the project was not set for 6 weeks away. Because they had my deposit hostage, they had control over how much they decided they wanted to keep, it was completely arbitrary, and they kept almost $900 of my money without providing anything. If they wanted to cover their credit card transaction fees, fine, at most 6%, but the rest is absolute robbery. The only solace I can find in this loss of almost $900 now is that I did not spend another $13,000 with them. I tried to call Paul after speaking with the manager to ask if he could do me a favor and try to reason with the manager on my behalf because he seemed nice enough. No answer. No callback. I will never seek out their services again and I will actively discourage others from doing so but, based on my experience, I expect they do not care."

FAQs for plumbing and heating service projects in Colchester, VT
The average cost to install a new water heater is around $1,300, but you can expect to pay between $875 and $1,750, depending on the kind of water heater, the size of the unit, and the professional chosen to complete the work. Tankless water heaters can push your price higher, as installation is more complicated, with prices as high as $3,500. The location and accessibility of your water heater will play a role in the project cost, as those sitting in tight spaces like a crawl space will drive up your labor costs.
