Thank you for choosing 411 Heating & AC, LLC, Contra Costa Countys' premiere HVAC service professional. For nearly a decade, we've specialized in all your heating and air conditioning needs. We proudly serve Concord and the surrounding areas. We look forward to earning your business.

"Our heater broke and my husband is medically fragile and It was 58 degrees INSIDE. I needed help ASAP. He's 88 and I'm 77 and calling people was frustrating until I checked top Angie reviews for my area. Even then, two out of three failed on ability to respond in less than 7-10 days. Another said we can come assess in three days and then schedule your repairs. 411 came within hours and had us heating up with a brand new, quieter, and quicker system the next day! Can't thank them enough. And the pricing was very fair based on checking with others in our neighborhood and relatives who have had to replace their systems."

"My AC stopped working last November, and since then i had 4 contractors i called to fix it, i was turned down by everyone. i called Tyndall and peter came out and talked about it with me, actually troubleshot it, and 2 days later had parts and fixed it. i would give them 6 stars if i could. im so glad to have my ac running again. my recommendation, if you want something done, call Tyndall, because the rest of the contractors seem to just say its not fixable and leave without even looking at it. these guys were the first people that listened, then looked at the unit before declining service, and then actually fixed it. 10/10 great job and thank you."
