"Hometown was able to fit me into their schedule on a short notice, come in and service my two furnaces (multi family), and did so at a price point that was fair. Jordan, the owner, was the one who came out to perform the routine service, and spent the time to answer my questions and show me specifics about my furnace and water heater, which I appreciate. Looking forward to working with them again."

Mcginley & Sons: Your trusted Heating and AC Repair experts in New Hampshire. We are a family owned & operated business, with no subcontractors. Our cost is determined by the job. Contact us today!

"I am writing to express my deep disappointment with the service provided by McGinley & Sons. Despite multiple attempts to resolve this issue, I have yet to receive the promised refund for work that was never completed. As a cancer survivor undergoing surveillance scans, the refund would greatly assist in covering my medical expenses. The lack of response and follow-through has added unnecessary stress during an already difficult time. In addition to this, I had to hire a lawyer to recover my down payment, which cost me additional money. Moreover, he did not offer to compensate me for the extra expenses, including hiring an electrician to install a wire for the heat pump he could not install. Despite repeated attempts to have the deposit returned, I finally received it after engaging legal assistance. I hope this review will encourage McGinley & Sons to address this matter promptly and fairly."

I'm new to the area but not new to the trades. With 8+ years under my belt I can do things from siding, door and window installs, TV hanging, furniture building, trim work, and anything in between, you name it I've most likely done it. Keep in mind I am a crew of 1 so any bigger projects may take a little time but I shoot for giving my clients a quality product.

"Ethan is a great carpenter and very reliable!"

Central a/c installations FAQs

If you’re replacing an old AC system with a new unit, you can usually clean and repair the old ductwork without having to conduct a full replacement. Cleaning HVAC ducts typically costs around $400, while repairs range from $200 to $1,000. In contrast, installing new ductwork can range from $1,000 to $5,000, making it far more costly than cleaning or fixing existing ducts. HVAC installation costs an average of $7,000 to replace a full system, so staying on top of maintenance and repairs is important.

AC cost efficiency depends on the size of your space and your long-term plans for your home. If you only need to cool a small area, a portable AC unit has a low upfront cost. Heat pumps are typically the most cost-effective option if you want to cool an entire home or improve the resale value. They provide strong cooling while being energy-efficient, which saves you money on your utility bills compared to most other AC types.

Installing a central AC unit typically takes four to eight hours if your home already has ductwork in place. However, if new ductwork needs to be installed, this can add another one to two days of labor to your project.
