He is honest. There's something to be said for honesty. It's a family run business, but he does everything the right way. Some of the other providers give poor customer service or rip people off and can't get business in their local area and are moving into our area. Lennox is good stuff. He went all the way to Philadelphia just to get me a part.

Heater was making a knocking sound and of course it was the holiday season. Braido came out right away and found a fan part needed replacement. The parts vendor was closed but they came out the next available day and had everything running smooth.

Repairman, Andrew, came and located the problem. The ignitor had burned out, so the burners would not light. Andrew did not have the part in his truck but was able to fit in a used part from another furnace to give me heat until he got the other part. I got a call the next day and scheduled a time to put in the exact part. Again, repairman was within the stated time window. Heat working well.

They came quickly because of the lack of hot water. Turned out the only thing that needed to be done was to relight the pilot. Grateful for hot water again.

I called in the late morning and the friendly office person took down all my information and gave me a window of time between 2-4 PM. She later called and said that the serviceman got done early with his morning job and would like to know if he can come earlier. The repairman, Andrew, was professional and knowledgeable. He opened the heating system access doors and found an error code. He promptly fixed the issue and also cleaned another part, which he said could give problems in the future. He took the time to explain why the problem occurred and what he did to fix it. He also took down the make/model of the heating system in case it needs more work in the future. Since there were not parts required, I was only charged the minimum service fee. The heat is working solidly now.

Only a day old but I'm sure it will provide many good years of service and MR Braido and company will be there to assist if problems do arise They do give Two year warranty on labor which helps.Had used Angie's list and I believe I had chosen the right contractor.A new heat rated at 18seer and new furnace to match for the best efficiency. <br />New duct work where needed and all code requirements to be met. Nice looking units.hope this helps and if you ever need plumbing ,air <br />Whatever call them! They have in business since1978 and still A rating not bad and I'm not related in any way.H ave a great day everyone. RjB <br />

It went very well.  Barido accommodated our work schedule on Monday 2/1, and sent a service tech out shortly before 4 p.m. as requested. He was professional and courteous, and had our furnace up and running in just about an hour.  It was a pleasure doing business with them. <br />

Mr. Braido came when he said he would for the initial discussion.   Discussed what to do/whether anything could be done with the old gas furnace in my office and discussed whether to replace it with a combination AC/Furnace unit.  When I decided just to remove the furnace altogether, he cheerfully obliged and, again, came when he said he would.  My plan is to have electric baseboard heating. If Mr. Braido did electrical work, I would certainly hire  him  for that job. <br />

My air conditioner condensers were struck by a power surge this summer. They were beyond repair, after repair inspections by 3 different firms, including Braido. Since my house is 21 years old, I knew that eventually the furnaces would have to be replaced as well, so I bit the bullet and replaced both the air conditioners and the furnaces for the upstairs and downstairs zones of my home.  <br /> I came across Braido's name from a local community board on Facebook. I checked their ratings out on Angie's List and decided to have them inspect and then provide an estimate. <br /> They were knowledgeable, helpful and reasonable throughout my decision making process. When we finally did decide to go with Braido, we were glad we did. They offered 0% financing on the balance and charged, what I believed. to be a reasonable rate, since I could compare their price to 3 other estimates.  <br /> For the install, they actually came 1 day early to lay the slab for the condensers outside because rain was being forecast. Smart thinking! <br /> Then, what was supposed to be a 3 day install, took only 2. They were timely, professional and tidy. Would definitely recommend! <br />

Very honest. Very reliable. Did a great job. He was pleasure to work with. I plan on hiring him again for a new house. I also asked him to look at my water heater. He was the only one to say it didn't need to be replaced. It's still working 2 years later.

Braido is a nice family run company.  I had the original 25 year old furnace and AC. I has the last house on the block to replace them.  Needed to get it done before winter.  They showed up the day I called for an estimate, took measurements, checked old system and discussed in detail my options for a replacement system.   No pressure to sell me the best as we will down size in a few years. A few days later quotes for two systems arrived. I was able to scheduled an installation that fit my schedule.  It was your typical one day job.  Everything went smoothly with the installation, and the old hardware was taken away.  I like this company and recommend them, I give them and A. <br />

A neighbor recommended Braido, but I also had 4 other estimates.  But <br /> Braido impressed me from the moment Robin came to give me an estimate, right <br /> through the installation by John Braido and his team.  <br />   <br /> I decided to replace my A/C and furnace, which were both 25+ years old.  <br /> Braido gave me a good price, better than most others, plus Robin answered all my <br /> questions and also gave me estimates on other combinations I considered, like <br /> larger BTU unit.  She patiently researched and answered every single question I had. <br />   <br /> I can't say enough about how wonderful I felt about the whole experience.  <br /> 4 guys came to do the install, arriving precisely on time, and finished earlier <br /> than I expected.  John went out of his way to make adjustments, like enlarge a <br /> vent to make the fan on the furnace run a lot more quietly than the old one <br /> did! <br />   <br /> I really welcomed the advice I got, too, like installing the full set, A/C, <br /> furnace, and coil, so they'd work more efficiently together.  The A/C runs so <br /> quietly that I found myself sticking my hand in front of the vents to see if it <br /> was blowing air at all.  But no question that the house is nice and cool, <br /> too. <br />   <br /> It was just so wonderful to deal with this family-owned company.  I kept <br /> getting the sense that they acted as though they were installing equipment in a <br /> family member's home, or one they'd be living in themselves.  So nice to work <br /> with people who honestly care about their customer and want to do a good <br /> job! <br />   <br /> I can't say enough about how happy I was.  I will recommend Braido to <br /> everyone, and, like the neighbor who recommended them to me, I will never feel <br /> the need to call another heating/cooling company again! <br /> I am so glad I made the right choice and hired them! <br />
