The problem started Tuesday evening, March 8th, when we noticed the heat was again out. No problem. These things happen. I understand and was happy to give them an opportunity to take care of it. My wife called them Wednesday morning as she was the one who would have to leave work early to meet them. She was told we we out of luck that day. I was disappointed with this. As I said, had they not had time to take the job to begin with, I would have totally understood. But when a repair they made lasts only 4 days, I would think a company would go a little above and beyond to try to see what happened. But, as they said they would come the next day, it was not that big a deal. Thursday my wife leaves work early and waits. And they did indeed send someone but "the truck was too big to make it up the driveway". I wanted to ask why he couldn't just park the truck at the bottom of the driveway and walk up, but didn't. I was told by the lady in the office that next day, Friday, he or someone would be back in a smaller truck. So again my wife leaves early and waits. I get home and wait. Nothing. Not even the courtesy to call and tell us they would not make it!! My wife and I sitting in our house like fools waiting for a technician that never showed. I cannot convey how disappointed I am with Kanawha Valley Maintenance for treating a customer this way. I was not asking them to come back for free. And again I cannot stress enough had they not had time for us to begin with I would have been fine with that. And I realize as well they were booked the days in question. But I cannot believe a company would not go the extra mile to fix an issue they already started. And it's not like it would have required some herculean effort. Would it have killed someone to work over 1 hour 1 day for this? We ended up having to call a company with emergency hours to fix this Sunday and he was not there an hour even. I am just so disappointed. Shame on Kanawha Valley Maintenance. Shame on the owner for allowing this to happen. (Please note I was unable to fill in the cost of service as I have not received the bill yet.)

The next morning while waiting for repairman I received a call, fifteen minutes, before my scheduled time to inform me that there was an emergency meeting that the service men had to attend. After me questioning this I asked a new approximate arrival time but was not given one but that I would be called. After waiting 3 hours they showed up. Repairmen did try to fix my problem and they worked very well but my problem was not fixed. The repair men only go where they are sent and this was not a fault of them. I fully did not believe a meeting took this long however, I do think a bigger customer was put in front of me. Wish they had not kept telling me I was first appt when clearly it was not the case because they had been to several jobs before me. Whatever happened to the integrity of companies?

And wow, we are very happy that we did! We talked with him early in the morning and he was at our house before noon that same day. We were astounded at his prompt service. He diagnosed the problem and fixed it immediately. Also cleaned out the vent. In and out in less than a half an hour. Not only was his service prompt, but his fee was extremely reasonable! He says that he doesn't want to take advantage of people as some repair businesses do. It is so refreshing to find a repairman who actually cares about his customers. And yes, our dryer is now working fine. Tony says that he does not repair microwaves or TVs, but he does work on other major appliances -- refrigerators, freezers, washers, dishwashers and of course dryers. Tony, you are the greatest! Personable, prompt, reasonable and professional. We cannot say enough good things about Tony and the quality of his work. If you have a major appliance that needs repair, grab your phone now and call Tony! We certainly will the next time we have a problem.

Came when they said they would and did the repair quickly.
They were only interested in selling me a new unit, not repairing my old one, even temporarily. I have an "elderly" heat pump that needs a compressor. I intend to replace this heatpump within two years but CANNOT do it now so I asked them to repair the unit. They refused because "Trane no...
the fence was repaired different than the first explanation of how to fix it. Looks like a good job.

Emailed Wilson's with my mower in for repairs and another company flaking out on me. The first time the grass was really talk (6+inches). Wilson's did great, going over several spots a few times to make sure it looked good and they raked the yard. The second time was a regular cut a couple...

They gave me an estimate. Said it could not be repaired and took my battery. They wanted over $5000 for the generator and $2000 to replace gas line. The repairman then wanted to know if he could have the old generator. Another company I called (XSpec) fixed the generator for $1700 including...

Yes, it can be worth installing a gas fireplace, depending on your home heating needs. The cost to install a gas fireplace can be much lower than the cost to install a comparable wood-burning fireplace. The convenience of starting a fire with the flip of a switch and turning it off just as quickly makes a gas fireplace a big time saver over starting and maintaining a wood-fueled fire. A gas fireplace also does not require ash cleanup or frequent chimney cleaning to remove creosote and other buildup that can lead to chimney fires. Gas fireplaces burn and heat much more cleanly than wood fireplaces.
A gas fireplace insert costs about $3,600 to install, on average. The cost to install a gas log insert ranges from about $700 to $6,500, depending on the size, type of insert, how it works, and heating needs.
