"I received a quote from Joseph owner of MidTown Home Services about repairing our outdoor side gate, since it had been damaged from the strong winds we were receiving. He gave me an estimate of about $500 total for all parts and labor. Then he went into detail about what he would be replacing and what he would be repairing. So I went ahead and hired him for this project."

I provide a well rounded handyman service capable of performing any task around the house or property. I have the tools and resources to repair any issue in a timely fashion.

"Quality of work okay at times. Does a lot of googling on how to do things. Will cover up dry rot damage or mold damage needs to be checked up on. Especially when it comes to dry rot and mold damage and drywall repairs and insulation of windows. Needs to hire people to do those jobs and then lets them go. Be careful. He only has his handyman license, not a contractor's license."

FAQs for window a/c unit installation projects in Tahoe Vista, CA

Window AC units can use a significant amount of energy. These units use about 12 to 17 kilowatt-hours per day, significantly more than a refrigerator's one to 1.5 kilowatt-hours per day. To keep your energy costs down, run your window AC only when necessary, keep doors closed to contain the cool air, regularly clean filters and coils, and seal any gaps around the unit to prevent cold air from escaping.

Inexpensive air conditioner units are often not worth it. Low-cost products from popular brands like General Electric, LG, Whirlpool, or Frigidaire may be a reasonable investment. However, putting a small, budget-friendly unit in a large room wastes energy and shortens the life span of the AC since it has to draw more power and work much harder to cool the space. The unit will consume more energy and stress the motor and other internal parts, resulting in early breakdown and costly repairs.

The best deals on window AC units come during the fall when businesses slash prices to clear out old inventory. You can also speak with your local AC installer, who may get you a good deal on a window AC unit since they have access to trade pricing. You can also watch for discontinued products and flash sales in your area.

Window AC repair costs between $110 and $390, with most people paying around $250. Parts cost between $2 and $150, with the rest going toward labor, at around $30 per hour. The occasional one-off repair or a routine AC tuneup cost $75 to $200. Servicing can keep your AC running in good condition for several more years before you need to pay for a replacement unit.

Window AC units last eight to 10 years when installed and maintained correctly. High-quality models last up to 20 years with proper care and routine maintenance. The unit’s longevity depends on its construction quality, regular cleaning, and electrical safety inspections. Keeping the filters and coils clean and addressing minor repairs promptly extends its effective performance and ensures reliable cooling.
