Get matched with top furnace / forced air heating system install or replace pros in Ironsides, MD

"I have had a service contract with McCrea Heating and Cooling since I purchased my condo unit new 7 1/2 years ago which included 2 maintenance visits a year. My current contract expired yesterday so I called to renew my service contract and upgrade from "Bronze" to "Silver." The representative took my charge card information over the phone. I asked if the contract was in effect as of today. They said "yes." Then I tried to schedule a service call (my unit was serviced a little over a month ago and now the condo wasn't cooling.) I was told then that the Silver Contract would NOT be in effect after all. The difference in price between Bronze and Silver is the cost of a diagnostic visit so they were getting the money one way or another. My long time history with the company did not persuade them to honor the contract I had just paid for. They wanted to charge me $98 to have my problem diagnosed under the Bronze contract that I pointed out was already expired. I was told the representative "misspoke" and should have told me they would have to send out someone to determine whether the furnace they have been maintaining for the past 7 years (with the most recent service call just a month ago) would "qualify" for the Silver plan. So, I cancelled the order for the Silver Plan. I called another company who came out for $30 and determined the problem was a clogged condensation drain. This drain was supposed to have been "blown out" when the regular maintenance was done by McCrea just a month ago, but obviously was not. The water was backed up in the drain pipe and filled the pan under the furnace/AC unit which turned off the AC. Now that everything is working again, I am seeking a different maintenance service plan provider. McCrea has competitive service contract prices, but if they have no customer loyalty, and the maintenance work is not done properly, maybe it's a question of "you get what you pay for.""

"Very satisfied with responsiveness, punctuality and professionalism! Danny was able to squeeze us into Blue Star's full schedule at a time that worked for us and called before the visit for clarification about the problem, and after the visit about how things went. John called before arrival to let us know about exact timing, and was very thorough in investigating the problem and then explaining the situation. After consultation, he was able to repair our system. John also discussed what to look out for in case there are problems in the future. We have had our AC unit serviced regularly by other companies, but we will never use those other companies again. Blue Star is superior in every way! Cannot recommend highly enough. Thank you, Danny and John!!"

"The price was part of my check up I got. I just like that they seemed to want to talk me into having my air conditioning cleaned and it only been out there like 6 months. My interaction with them was fine. I told them no and so be it. The work turned out fine. They were fine."

"Immediately followed up on my inquiry (Paul) . Sent a very professional and knowledgeable tech (Andrew) to repair our Mitsubishi systems. Repairs had been attempted by another firm, and I believe we went backwards. Andrew took his time, diagnosed the issues, which were multiple, and our systems are working like new. The cost of the service was below the cost we had anticipated. I highly recommend Hoffman, and will continue to use their services and recommend to family and friends."

"Excellent! Fernando and Jesus worked on our interior work. They did an exceptional job, were kind and professional, and made our broken kitchen and bath look marvelous. Glenn was a trooper through the exterior work, which he completed solo in searing heat. He did an extraordinary job on our side door. We went from having heat floating in to have a door that keeps the elements out! Glenn also offered a new solution to our continual plumbing problems in our crawl space - huzzah! Thank you, gentlemen!"

"Excellent workmen, they did a great job.

"Especially for the price (I'm doing another installation now and can't find equivalent), no issues whatsoever. The bathroom I had the toilet installed in is not very big, and with a small radiant heat unit on the wall, it's a cramped space for doing the installation. But it was done well, and the new toilet has been working fine with no issues. I dealt with disposal of the old toilet, but that was fine."

"David was pretty good, service my ac system and fixed it quickly and at the right price, Iâ ll definitely be using him again and recommend him to my fam and friends"

"I needed a fix to the iron gates on my house. They gave me the estimate and we set a time for them to come. He was right on time and went right to work. Fixed everything. No mess! I would have them back if I needed more work."
