Best Businesses in Phoenix, AZ

Eklund Refrigeration and Air Conditioning replaced the HVAC in a duplex I purchased, and completed it very efficiently.  I am an out-of-state investor and I am not in the property to experience the new HVAC system; so, I will let others provide their great reviews for Eklund Refrigeration on that.

What meant a lot to me is that Calvin (owner) was very much willing to help in any way he can, even though it was not related to his job.    I was comfortable in asking him questions about the property I bought because he's been there and my property manager took too long to respond that time.  Calvin even offered to explain how to unlock the duplex to the painters because they cannot get in.  Fortunately, Calvin explained the unlocking process to me so clearly that I just called a locksmith and the locks were fixed.  Obviously not HVAC related, but I am very glad Eklund Refrigeration did my HVAC because knowing Calvin helped me get my property rent ready in more ways than one.

I have had AC by J do multiple jobs at my house.  The first one went seemingly well, a minor repair on my tub faucets.  So I called  them again.  This time it was for a major undertaking with a  slab leak in our bathroom.  In this particular case, there were many components to the repair i felt like I had to stay with AC with J - even though I thought the price quotes they gave me were expensive - I did not have the time to shop around for other quotes.

The next occasion was also under duress.  One Saturday morning I woke up to find both of my kitchen sinks full of water - meaning my line was clogged and backed up from my laundry room (washer), past the dishwasher to my sinks.  Just the day prior I had had a locating company come out and locate and mark exactly where my clog was - although at the time it was still partly working.  I thought I would wait until after I went out of town for the holidays to shop around and get quotes.  When the sink clogged up, I called AC by J and was told they would be out after 3.  By 630 I called and was told that the tech had just left.  Sure.  When Victor came out he quoted me a discounted rate of $2750 to dig down 12 through the soil in my back yard, cut out a 6' section, replace it and install clean outs.  I was so upset!  I let my hubby handle it.  Due to a couple of other circumstances we had no other choice but to have them do the work the next day Sunday (yeah, the worked on the weekend.  I would to for that kind of money).  They finished the work and it seems to be working fine.

However, I have another clogged line, lucky me.  Again, already located and marked by someone else.  This time it is 26 underneath a concrete slab.  THIS time I am going to get 3 quotes and see what I get.  

The first plumber came out and gave me a quote of $1722.35,  $1080 of that was for the CONCRETE work (saw cut and replace).  

The second quote was from DW Plumbing.  Patrick spent an hour with me, reviewing the video from the locating service and discussing options with me.  Wow!!! Options?  I have options?  No one else said I had options!!  

Then, just for fun, I had AC by J come out and give me a quote.  Victor came back, looked at the concrete slab, said he had to talk to his concrete company and that he had promised my hubby a discount after the last $2750 job.  An hour later I got the estimate via email.  Want to guess what the Discounted price for the work UNDER the slab was??  $3100.  

I contacted AC by J with all of my price quotes for the work and asked them to refund part of my moneys paid for the work in December on the kitchen line - that I felt that they had disgustingly overcharged me.  You can guess what that got me.  

So, this is definitely one of those Buyer Beware Notices.  They do respond reasonably quickly - which if you are in a pinch and you don't care about pinching your pennies - go for it.  However, if you are of the more frugal mind set and work hard for your money, then don't even bother getting a quote from them because they are going to blow you out of the water.

These guys are great!  No hassle.  Low charge for service calls - I forget if it is $40 or $60, but either way, it's a good deal for an honest diagnosis.

Amazing company!! Keola, Brennan, Devan, and one other tech (didn't get his name, sorry!) all did phenomenal jobs when they came out to install our new unit and cleaned our ducts and vents. Everyone was thorough, highly efficient, accommodating, very professional and honest.  They had everything timed perfectly which was quite impressive lol Communication was made quick and easy thanks to Julia and Nicole.  They answered all of our questions, addressed all of our concerns and were able to schedule us quickly.  We can't say enough good things about this company.  They are our go-to AC company and would not recommend anyone else.  Thank you guys!

As a Real Estate agent for almost 40 years I've used several AC companies over the years.  But now I think I found my favorite go to for AC service!   Honest and fair!

I selected Temperature Pros from the business directory of the Glendale Chamber of Commerce, since we needed AC service prior to the hot Arizona Summer.  John's team came and did a great job!  They are professional, efficient and reasonable!  Our AC is actually working better.  I highly recommend this business.  John McCoomb is the owner.  Tell him Cooki sent you!

Benny and Alfred arrive on time and complete the job efficiently. They are kind, understanding, and very skilled. I've used them a couple of times. Highly recommend.

Trae and Mark did a fantastic job replacing our 4 ton unit located on our roof.  They were prompt and professional.  Mark set the expectation and both he and Trae more than delivered.  On top of that, their prices were very competetive!!  We HIGHLY recommend Top Tier to anyone in the market for a new AC/heat pump.

Returned service request call quickly.  Billy showed up on time and ready to work (important to note since some contractors don't).
Very quickly fixed all the little fixes we had originally called about with time to spare so asked him to look at an electrical issue and found and fixed the problem for us.
Could not recommend more.

Ray Nieves was very prompt and professional. His business is local and I prefer to shop local whenever I can.
His pricing was very competitive. I provided him with the specs on my outdoor unit and he ordered the necessary parts yesterday.
He had everything he needed when he showed up ON TIME!
He explained everything in layman terms and showed us exactly what had caused our problem.
He has our business for years to come!

I called Cactus Valley HVAC for an AC unit maintenance, Richard, Cedric and Jonathan came out and while they were hear they recommended a duct cleaning. Jonathan came back on a Saturday to clean my ducts. They are honest, fast and are fair priced. I 100% recommend Cactus Valley HVAC.

I do not recommend anyone hire Joe for tile work, or anything else for that matter. I reached out at the beginning of June to have him demo and re-tile two bathroom showers and initially, Joe was very responsive. I chose him because he had photos of a previous tile job he had done. He sent me a quote and told me it would take 2-3 days per bathroom from start to finish. He came out the first day and removed the tile, and then found that the original tile was put up on drywall. As we decided to put in cement board, he told me it would take an extra day per bathroom. I offered to buy the backerboard, he said not to worry about it.

First day was demo. Second day was 5 days later due to his family emergency, and he put in the backerboard and shower valve. Day 3 (a week after starting) he started to put up tile and wasn't able to finish, so he came back the next day. Took 4 days just to get the tile up (no grout), at which point I was able to get a good look at his work.

He had left tile spacers in from Day 3 (should have been removed after 20-30 min). If I hadn't removed them, they'd have been left in over the weekend. Most of them were stuck and broke off. There was also a dent in my tub and adhesive all over it. When I texted him about it, he said I could clean the adhesive with a sponge and regarding the damage to the tub that happened when I did the demo. No apology or offer to fix it.

I then noticed that one of the walls wasn't level. Several of the tiles were out of place, one had a corner popping out. None of the grout lines were even. There was a huge gap between where the tile ended and where the drywall began. When I texted him regarding the wall not being level, he took two days to respond. When I sent a follow up text after not hearing back, he said he could take out and replace the tiles but could not fix the wall not being level.

I then had two separate contractors come out to assess it and both said it was the worst work they'd ever seen. They confirmed that the wall should not have been tiled until it was level, and that they could definitely level it but the whole shower would have to be ripped out and started over. Additionally, now the tub needs to be replaced as Joe damaged it during the demo.

I reached back out to him with this information and apart from saying sorry for the inconvenience he did not take any responsibility for not only the terrible work, but the damage he caused. I sent two additional texts and he completely ignored both. He has refused to refund my deposit or fix the work (beyond replacing a couple of tile, which is a complete waste of time). So now it has been two weeks, I still don't have a functional shower, and I am now out $2,000 between the deposit and the tile and tub. Unacceptable.

A very efficient company , on time or early.  Pete, the technician, was very knowledgeable and extremely reliable    and informative about the new product that was installed.  
They always answered the phone and keep me up to date on the condenser that was on order!
Great overall experience!!
I would highly recommend them to anyone!!!
Paradise Valley Az.

Horrible service, had a scheduled date to get a new AC installed they did a no call no show. Gave them a second chance so rescheduled they showed up 40 mins late then the guy was only here for 20 minutes with zero Communication. Then wanted to add on another $1,000 on top of everything else. Definitely glad I went with another company couldn't rely on these guys.
