Best Air Duct Repair in Minneapolis MN

We bought an 85-year-old house and that means one thing - galvanized pipes.  Otherwise known as swiss cheese, aka, going to leak and burst whenever I feel like it, aka, go ahead you cheapo and roll the dice and not replace me.

I know a plumber back east and he told get rid of the galvi ASAP.  Um, ok.  So I called a few plumbers.  Some were really cheap, like do the math and you wonder it takes X days and Y material, how do you stay in business?  Another big shop in town was very expensive and seemed like they were adding little things here and there to the estimate.

Erickson's guy, Mike, was very nice and was thorough and was clear on not needing things that the other high-priced shop proposed.  He explained the residential codes to me and why I did not need certain things.  He did preface that this was not going to be cheap.  He walked through all the things that needed to be done and how long it took and I realized that this was going to take several days of someone working all day and knocking out walls and ceilings. This was a big project.

Their estimate was expensive, but still about 15% lower than one of the other big guys in town.  But, I got a good feeling about them.  So I gave Erickson the work.

They came in an installed pex and ripped out all the galvanized across 3 floors of my house.  They did an excellent job and would not hesitate having them back in the future.

Our A/C was on its last legs right during the first heat wave of the summer. We use Rumpca for one reason--we trust them. We ordered a new Lennox AC but it was not in stock so they had to order it in. Due to the heat wave, their installers were not going to be able to install a new one for about a week. With the temps supposed to be soaring over the weekend BEFORE our new a/c got installed, we made a couple of inquiry calls to Rumpca and they sent a tech out to help limp our old a/c along until the new one could get installed. THIS, in spite of their backlogged schedule with other a/c calls, they still sent someone out to try and get our old a/c to hang on until the following week! That is customer service. We trust Rumpca, their people and their quality of installs. Thanks Rumpca Team!!!

We hired Valley to install new dishwasher and to do some plumbing under our sink. They needed to add an electrical outlet for the dishwasher. We found out that our old dishwasher was plumbed using the cold water line and our refrigerator water was plumbed using our hot water. They completely re-plumbed correctly, replaced other cracked fittings, replaced leaking sink drain. Jeremy started the project and Mike came over to help finish. A total of 7 hours between the two was needed to complete everything. The total bill was just over $400. I thought this price was totally reasonable. I highly recommend Valley Plumbing and I will call them on future projects.

I've called on Comfort Matters a couple of times now and I will say they're quick, on-time, friendly, and helpful. You should be prepared for a heavy sales pitch though. They will 'helpfully' suggest hundreds of dollars in extra fixes you didn't know you needed (and probably don't), like a $700+ dollar electronic air filter I 'need' to get because the regular pleated filters are bad for the HVAC system. They'll also spend a lot of time trying to sell you a subscription to their twice annual maintenance program. If you know what you need done, and can say no to a sales pitch, Comfort Matters will do great work. If you're susceptible to sales pressure, you'll probably end up spending a lot of extra money.
Excellent work, drop the sales pressure and they're perfect.

The best in the business! We've used them a few times now and they never fail to exceed our expectations. Fast, friendly, and professional service. We will definitely be calling Legend the next time we need heating, ac, or plumbing work done. Thank you, Erik, for getting our ac fixed so quick!

Third time I called for service, first time I was disappointed. No phone call or note upon arriving home, so I wasn't sure if anything had been done that day. Also, the scary pipe banging I called about is still there. Sounds like it is about to rip through my wood floors every time it happens... I will fix that myself.

Then three nights ago the drain setting in my sink - that I had them install - popped right off. Don't think that is supposed to happen... I will fix that myself, too. (Dramatic self-pitying sigh).

My dehumidifier had been running non stop for a month and water was everywhere all over my basement due to our furnace leaking. Metro sent a wonderful technician out fast and he unclogged our drain hose for us. Within 24 hrs, my dehumidifier has stopped running and the basement is dry again!!

Thank you Metro Heating/Cooling. You saved my basement floors, walls and my electricity bill!!

Plus they changed my furnace filter so I didn't have to. I will use them again!

Awesome company to deal with! Had them come out and hook my refrigerator, stove, plumbing lines, and fix my toilet. They did all this in a couple hours and did a unbelievable job. I would highly recommend them to everyone.

I had to call the office staff on a couple of occasions after installation and speak to a staff member Alisha not only was she rude on both occasions but very unprofessional. I am happy with my product and the service people I dealt with but there office staff could use an upgrade.

Great company values. They offer a lot compared to other contractors. First class service all the way.

Before I begin, I want to say that I have a unique situation. When my house was built (far before I bought it) they decided not to make room for a furnace inside the house. Instead, they opted to go with a furnace/air conditioner combo unit on the outside of the house.

My existing combo unit died in 2013. I hired Sabre Heating & Plumbing to install a new unit. On the installation day (Friday, December 20, 2013), I should have realized that Sabre was not the company I should have gone with. I was at work when they installed it. When I returned home, I tried to turn on the furnace but it would not turn on. I decided to look around the new unit to see if there was a power switch or button. I couldn't find one but instead found a pair of fuses just sitting on top of the unit and two wires coming out of the ground, neither attached to anything (see included images). I told them what I saw and the next day they came out and fixed it. Strangely, I did not see the fuses or wires poking out of the ground later.

To protect my investment, I signed up for their Sabre Blue Maintenance Plan. For $300/year, a technician would come out twice a year to make sure the unit was running correctly. For the first few years, everything seemed to be working just fine. I believed that when they came out for the biannual checkup that they were doing a thorough inspection of the unit. Also, since there were different technicians who came out over the years, if one technician missed something then the next one would probably catch it (or so I thought).

Things started to go wrong in the summer of 2018. At the beginning of August 2018, the air conditioner was not cooling my house so I had them come out. I looked back in my email and all I could find was a charge for $106.25. I don't delete emails so I was surprised to find no work order. On 8/16/2018, there was another charge for $108.00 to replace an ARMOD. On 10/11/2018, again my combo unit was having issues and I was charged another $125.00 for a trip fee. Next year on 8/22/2019, I again needed them to come out and repair my unit. This time at $234.00 and again with no work order so that I could not trace back what they did. One month later on 9/20/2019 they had to come out again. This time to replace the TXV at $433.89. The sheer number of issues with my unit should lead me to believe that these $300/year biannual checkups were either not being done or being done by untrained technicians.

This leads to the most recent issue. On 2/4/2020, I noticed my furnace making a loud whirring noise. On the following day, it stopped producing heat. The technician who came out replaced the inducer motor. I asked what I could do to prevent this going forward and he told me that sometimes they just seize up. He got the furnace working but I noticed that there was barely any air pressure coming out of the vents. I was happy the furnace was working so I just let it run for the night. I woke up cold at 3:00 am and saw that the temperature in my house was 56 degrees. I called Sabre again the next day and informed them that the furnace would run for 20 minutes and then shut off. They sent a different technician the following day. After working on it for a number of hours the technician told me that furnace was overheating and that a safety switch was turning it off. I asked him what could be causing it to overheat and he replied: I don't know. He told me that he would increase the high limit so that the overheating would not shut off the furnace. I didn't like this answer so, for the first time, I decided to call another HVAC company, Blue Ox. Within 20 minutes the Blue Ox technician discovered that the evaporator coil was completely blocked by dirt and dust. The reason why it was overheating was that no air was coming through the intake and the motor was trying extra hard to suck in air. In addition to this, the Blue Ox technician noticed that the exhaust vent was still taped inside the furnace where the evaporator coil was. The Sabre technicians who installed the furnace didn't know or even bother to inspect the unit after they had installed it (hence the random fuses and bare wires). Since this exhaust vent had been in there since the installation, it meant that no Sabre technicians had bothered to look at the evaporator coil, not on the numerous times they came out to fix the unit or on the many biannual checkups. In addition, these experts rarely offered solutions and were not even curious as to what the underlying issues were. This makes me believe that they are either severely under-trained, extremely lazy, or unethical. Any way you cut it, it is a good reason to go with someone besides Sabre.

STAY AWAY!! WORST COMPANY we dealt with. If I could give Deans Home services a negative 5 that may not be enough.

We got a quote to rewire our house. We had not one but two almost hour long appointments to go over everything we needed done. Quoted $25,000 for their deluxe electrical package.

When the crew arrived they claimed they did not know what needed to be done so we walked them through everything yet a 3rd time. This time they  wrote it on the studs/walls.

Halfway through the job they wanted $5K more & when realized they won't be able to squeeze out the $, they abandoned the job!! We had to hire another electrician to not only finish but recheck all of Deans work and undue some of  their incorrectly wired lines!!

Deans damaged our fireplace box & is trying to force us to use their contractor to fix it. As of today, they did not resolve this issue.

Deans home services  will say anything to get you to sign the contract & mid job claim more$ is needed for an issue they found.

I'd hate to have you go through the headache we went through. Don't use Deans.

At 36 weeks pregnant , two non-functional faucets were not ideal for my house. BWS sent someone within the day, fixed both faucets and put my mind at rest. What an incredibly skilled and kind team, from the coordinator to the plumber. BWS is best and I would recommend them to anyone!

We just moved to town and desperately needed a plumber for some issues in our new home. Not knowing any plumbers in town I decided to google plumbers and ran across this company. I called and they immediately set me up with an appointment. I received a text message confirming the appointment. They arrived when they said they would and quickly diagnosed the problem and fixed it. About a week later I had another issue. Called City View Plumbing and again received immediate service. The same plumbers I had before arrived and I knew that I was in good hands! Again they quickly diagnosed the problem and will fix it once the part comes in. Nobody loves water leaks or plumbing problems. I now have peace of mind that this company will always be there for me in a time of need. I will definitely recommend them highly to anyone looking for a plumber or having plumbing issues. Kudos to a very well run company!

SCAM NOTICE!! First off, thank you to Yelp and all the reviewers who wrote Dean's reviews.  You helped save me from committing more money to this company!
My tankless water heater recently stopped working and was flashing an error signal on the digital screen.  The unit constantly kept trying to light itself but it wouldn't stay on.  In the past I've fixed a similar problem myself on my furnace, so I had an idea of what the problem was.  Being a Dean's Club member (and the fact that they installed the unit 5 years ago), I called the company thinking that, minimally, there would be no charge to at least come out and confirm my diagnosis.  However, when the plumber got to my home, he told me there would be a $270 charge because of where the water heater was positioned!  After spending about 45 mins testing the machine, he recommended I buy an entirely new unit AND water softener to prevent this from happening again!  Reluctantly, I agreed to get the unit replaced and told him to schedule the work.  When the plumber left, the unit was flashing a DIFFERENT error signal than the original one, indicating something more serious.  After reading reviews on Yelp, I decided to get a 2nd opinion from a different company the next day.  Not only was the 2nd plumber able to fix the original problem, he also discovered that the reason I was getting the new error signal was because the first guy had purposely unplugged a small wire to make me think the unit was seriously broken.  I immediately called Dean's and canceled the replacement project and my unit is working fine with no issues.  Ironically, The first plumber from Dean's called me within an hour of my canceling the project to ask if he could come back out to my house to fix something that he'd left undone.  I assumed it was to fix the problem that he sabotaged the day before so I told him no.  DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!

They sold and installed the wrong part for our furnace. We had to hire another contractor the next day and pay for the correct part AGAIN. They refuse to give us our $468 back for a part that was completely useless!! Do NOT whatever you do use this company. They are scammers!!!

They are the plumbing and heating contractor responsible for my new construction home, thus they are responsible for the repairs. I had an appointment scheduled a month ago for today. I took the day off work expecting them to be here between 8-12 and at 2:30 they cancelled my appointment. They said they could get me in a the earliest convenience. Which means their earliest convenience, not mine, so it's another month before they can come back. Then they said they couldn't have a plumber and an HVAC tech in the house at the same time because it's a small space. My house is not a small space. Massive excuses. Then? Then? The customer service rep hung up on me. Unbelievable. Totally over using this company ever again.

I had my toilet replacement successfully performed. I was sent a picture of the technician prior to his arrival, and it went pretty smoothly. I hadn't mentioned that I had already purchased a Toto toilet unit for the replacement, and they were completely fine with removing the the toilet and replacing it with the one I purchased. The technician also recommended that I not use a wax-free seal ring given high failure rates with them and instead used a wax seal ring he had free of charge. He cleaned up and brought everything with him. Really nice guy all around.
