Best Boiler Services in Minneapolis MN
I finally got around to getting the living room electrical issue addressed. The cats had a huge fight some time ago, and I'd lost power to 3/4 of the room. Because I figured that it was going to be a pretty spendy proposition, I hemmed and hawed about it.
When I finally broke down to address it, I used the Yelp Get-A-Quote feature to find reputable companies to get the job done.
Erickson was one of the responding companies. They were not the company who promised me the cheapest rates. Their contact was professional and friendly. After giving my phone number, I was called by a young lady who asked me to return the call if I was interested in having them work on my home (I was in my 10,000th Zoom meeting at the time of the call).
I called back and was asked a few more questions about the issue and I explained that I believed that one outlet was the source of the problem and that fixing it would end all the other problems. I was told that they bill for time and materials and that the cost would be around $200, depending upon the amount of time the electrician would be working. This was in line with the research I'd done on outlet replacement costs.
I took a deep breath and accepted the time slot of 7:30 - 9:30 Thursday. This was a quicker time than some of the other companies had available, and I didn't want to wait any longer.
Dean was right on time and got right to work inspecting what needed to be done. We chatted a bit as he was preparing to get into the outlet. I showed him down to the basement to ensure that the circuit was off. He'd mentioned several things about the wiring and such while down there. I've made mental notes of them. Before going down, he tried to use a device that would read the current but couldn't get it into the outlet (it was pretty melted).
After taking apart the outlet, which was very crispy, he explained that the problem was the wiring in the outlet itself and that my cats fighting didn't cause the overload. It was a fire waiting to happen. I wasn't happy to hear that, as I've now got concerns about all the other outlets in the house.
It didn't take him any time at all to switch out and correctly rewire the new outlet. This was probably the best $205 I've spent on the house thus far.
Dean was friendly, professional, and fast. I'm feeling quite happy that Yelp has helped me go three for three with service professionals coming to work on things in my home. I know that I'll be calling Erickson for anything that comes up in the future.

I had them install an air conditioner, they were very skilled, and I am happy with the installation, and the job that they did. They did an excellent job, customer service was also excellent .!!!

Amazing company with excellent technicians that are friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. I know absolutely nothing about Air conditioning, and they gave me every possible option, including repairing my existing equipment which saved me a great deal of money. I'd recommend them to anyone needing Heating or AC repairs. Great company!!!!

Have had Metro Heating & Cooling service my current home and past home, as well as my clients homes for years. Couldn't be happier with their service. Rainy is the technician I've had the past 3 times I've called service and he's incredibly professional and explains everything thoroughly.

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.

Fast, friendly, and fair pricing! The guy was very knowledgeable and explained everything to me. My condo building will be using them again!

Addendum to 1/4/2022 review
We had to hire another electrician to fix our bathroom fan issues. Turns out that the fan was never connected to the new venting that Service Today installed. Infact, none of the venting was attached to anything, it was just laying flat in the attic, not even attached to the new bathroom fan. Also, we discovered that Meghan H., the Service Today installer left open, live wires in the attic. We could easily have had an attic fire. After checking her Meghan H business card, it states she is an electrical technician so I believe she is not a licensed electrician but working under the Service Today license. The new electrician asked Was this work done by a licensed electrician? My answer was I thought it was. Now I'm thinking maybe not. Thank goodness we had it checked by a reputable electrician. Again, Run, Run, Run as fast as you can away from Service Today. I am ashamed to say I hired these people without doing better research!!

Yeah, not a good company to do business with. Called to get some heating work done. Bad customer service. System stopped working immediately. Called back and didn't hear back for two weeks. Still haven't received a refund for the shoddy work.

Don't waste your time with this company. I needed to replace an A/C unit and was also interested in potentially replacing my furnace. I scheduled an appointment to get a quote for the project. Dean's can only provide a 4 hour window. They did not show the first day and bumped me to the next day. The next day they were also a no show and wanted to bump me once again. I wouldn't recommend doing business with any company that cannot meet their promises to customers. I learned from the company that they prioritize existing customers over new customers and will bump them from the schedule even if they have made a commitment to them. I wouldn't trust any company that doesn't keep their word.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! I gave this company three chances (apparently I'm an idiot) and should have stopped after the first job.
1. Installed AprilAir which seemed to go well but technician left a mess
2. Hired for an AC tune-up and was talked into a full cleaning. Didn't run right after that.
3. Hired to fix water softener. Didn't fix it and as a bonus, threw the water in the holding tank on our grass which killed it along with the soil so not an easy fix. Asked for compensation and luckily they agreed. Tech came back to try and repair it (which was suppose to be free) but it still doesn't work. And he charged me some because he said we had too much salt unit so it was extra work for him.
2 (continued). Came back to fix whatever happened while they were cleaning it. Was told it would take like $600 to repair. Said no, hired Golden Valley Heating & Air who came out that day and fixed it for significantly less.
Much frustration, time, and money wasted on this company.

They do good work but are not reliable. If you have any problem/challenge or concern...it's just that...yours. They are not a customer-first business. I've had them do several projects, each time it felt like I was a burden to them. They are skilled mechanically, not skilled at customer relations.

Moving to a new home, needed some plumbing work before moving in. We called City View and scheduled an appointment for them to come out and give us an estimate on a couple of items that needed to be addressed. They came out on a Monday and promised an estimate by Wednesday. We called on Wednesday making sure they had our correct email, to which we were told rudely we would have it by the end of the day. Nothing!! Called late afternoon on Thursday again checking to see when we could expect it and making sure they had the correct email address. They apologized, saying they would get it out ASAP, NOTHING, no phone call, no email, no I'm sorry we have been busy, total silence. Apparently they have enough business, I would not recommend using them, unless you like a challenge!! They are only getting one star because I can't post without it!!

Excellent service. My mom had recommended them for price and service and I ended up getting the same service person, Joel, who had been to my mom's house. Joel provided me with a clear cost before starting and explained the process and checked all other possible leaks before re-bolting the toilet! Joel was also very friendly and professional!
Highly recommend!

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!!!

MSP did an exceptional job when our furnace went out over a weekend. In 2 days they came out to find the problem, when it needed to be replaced they had their people out the next day (a Sunday) you go through estimates (they gave the most comprehensive estimates of 5 companies), and had a new furnace installed the following day. Both Mike and Nick were efficient and explained everything as they went. I highly recommend MSP!
