"Best thing I ever did was run into So Cal Boys Heating & Air. From the minute I met George and Earvin - they made me feel at ease. They walked through my home and explained everything in ways I could understand. They answered all of my questions and not once did they make me feel uncomfortable asking. The work date was set up and everything went up in the 2 days. Andres and Greg installed everything and were very respectful of my home / family / pets. I love my new AC and heat pump. I am very happy with their commitment and dedication to their company. I am highly recommending them to family & friends"

It is important to really know what your expectations are of the contractor, or handyman before anything is agreed upon. From working with a wide variety of new customers, our goal here at American West Solution Services is to save the homeowner from expensive cost on home repairs, and to help assist in navigating the rigorous process of those repairs with the knowledge I've accumulated over the past 20 years at the highest level of employment at the companies where I was working. As a carpenter by trade, there is no job too small or big to achieve. We strive for customer satisfaction/guaranteed, and customer retention. Our team is committed to customer service, product acceptance, final analysis, experience assurance, and the final project resolution. I encourage you to research your options to consider your personal needs when it comes to home repairs. Looking for someone you can work with, someone that you can trust, can be a strenuous experience. We feel that transparency is paramount.
