Best Air Duct Repair in Saint Paul MN

Make sure you are completely aware of the issues you are having.   Had them look at my water heater cause the pilot light kept going out. They Told me it was a bad gas valve....   Pilot light was not staying lit, its probably the thermocouple.  They wanted to replace my water heater and charge me over $1000 when all we needed was a $13 thermocouple. Matt Loe obviously didn't do his job, and tried to gouge our eyes out with a ridiculous estimate for a new water heater.   Didn't need a new water heater, just needed a new part.   Be aware, these guys WILL Try to pull one over on you.  Get a second opinion

Legend Services installed a new Day & Night brand furnace in our home today.  Their service was thoroughly knowledgeable and professional from initial visit to assess the situation, to their estimate, and the actual installation.  They arrived on time, completed the work very neatly in just a few hours, and cleaned up spotlessly when they were done.  I would highly recommend this company for heating, A/C and plumbing work.  Truly one of the most professional service providers with whom I've worked in the 29 years that I've owned the home.  Thanks for an excellent job!

Lange's Plumbing & Heating have provided us with superior service for years. Jim and his crew have been quick to respond to our needs, efficient in their work and always priced fairly. It would be easy to take advantage when there is no heat in the middle of a cold Minnesota winter or suddenly you find your hot water heater has failed........they simply respond like professionals.

Fast, fair, friendly and with the quality workmanship we need. For us it is Lange's Plumbing and Heating!

We are SO HAPPY we called H2C Heating, Cooling, and Plumbing for a second opinion on our malfunctioning older boiler!  We originally called the people with all the billboards in & around NE Mpls - they came away with Inform customer to replace boiler it's not worth putting over $3000 into it.   Well, I just had this niggling feeling that something was not right about this - ended up finding a recommendation on the Facebook page North House for H2C -- $290 later we are up & running with heat throughout the house! myH2C.com

Our bathroom sink had a leak and my handy husband was not able to repair it. We called Boldt Plumbing. Logan was our technician. He arrived on time, which is very important to us. He introduced himself right away and he was very pleasant, easy to talk to and made sure we understood the situation. He was quick, efficient, and seemed very knowledgeable. We were and are very satisfied with his service. If / when we need plumbing services again we will definitely call Boldt. And yes, Logan left our home very clean.

We've used Comfort Matters for all our HVAC related work since moving into our home last September. We only have the highest praise for CMs maintenance and installation work. Chris (consultant), Nick and Ian (installation) took care of our new HVAC system install needs from start to finish. We had no concerns nor issues to think about, other than what system and cost was best suited for our townhouse unit.  After selecting the best option CM's installation crew came a few days afterwards and did the complete HVAC install in one day (actually about 7 hours). By that evening we were up and operating. They made sure we were comfortable with the process from start to end. You won't go wrong using this company. Even before coming out they send a brief bio of the techs or consultants serving us so we get to know a bit about them up front.

We purchased a Daikan system 3 option and Aprilaire whole house humidifier. So far, we are very pleased with the system and twice a year maintenance.

Still waiting for my rebate since June, I call   Excel energy, they said they never received my rebate application, then I call and text Michael to see what's going on, no response.

BUYER BEWARE!  I WAS CHARGED $530 TODAY FOR A JOB THAT RUMPCA WOULD HAVE CHARGED $250 FOR ONE YEAR AGO:  PLEASE READ ON:

RUMPCA NO LONGER BILLS CUSTOMERS BASED ON PARTS AND LABOR.  I Just spoke with Mr. Rumpca on the phone and he explained to me We stopped doing that a year ago.  The least they could have done for a long term customer was tell me up front that parts and labor charges are out the window. Mr. Rumpca further explained  We now charge a flat rate.

IN CASE YOU'RE WONDERING WHY RUMPCA NOW CHARGES A FLAT RATE here's how it works straight from the mouth of a reputable small business organization: When a small business is paid a flat rate for completing a service, it can make more money by performing more services in a shorter amount of time  Unfortunately that means you, the customer pays more.  In my case a lot more. More than double the price of what I would have paid under Rumpca's prior labor and parts pricing system.

My furnace was not working properly yesterday. So I called Rumpca and they stopped by. They ended up replacing the gas control valve. Under Rumpca's prior practice of charging for parts and labor the total cost would have been $250. Here's how that breaks out:

- LABOR $150: According to Homeguide The average cost for a service call is a minimum charge of between $75 - $200 and that is applied to the first hour of labor.  I'm using $150 which is near the top of Homeguide's range.
The technician was at my house for 1/2 hour - SEE TWO PHOTOS AT BOTTOM. Here's what he did:
1.) He looked in the error code window on the front of the furnace and it indicated that the gas control valve was bad
2.) He removed 2 screws and took off the furnace door
3.) He detached 2 electric quick disconnects from the existing gas valve
4.) He backed off the 2 threaded fasteners and removed the existing gas valve
5.) He rubbed thread sealant onto both threads and attached the new gas valve
6.) He plugged 2 electric quick disconnects into the new gas valve
7. He ran a quick pressure test
8.) He refastened the furnace door with 2 screws.
THAT'S $430 DOLLARS FOR 1/2 HOUR OF LABOR - THAT IS WHAT I PAID UNDER RUMPCAS FLAT RATE PRICING - UNDER THE PRIOR LABOR + PARTS PRICING MY LABOR COST WOULD HAVE BEEN $150.

- PARTS $100:  The gas control valve Rumpca installed is sold on Amazon for $75.  Since Rumpca is a business, they pay about $50 for the valve. Assuming they double that to make a profit on the part, $100 for parts.

- TOTAL COST THAT RUMPCA WOULD HAVE CHARGED ME A YEAR AGO WHEN THEY WERE STILL CHARGING A FAIR PRICE BASED ON PARTS AND LABOR WOULD BE $250 ($150 labor + $100 parts). UNDER THEIR NEW FLAT RATE PRICING I WAS CHARGED $530. That's right!  $530 dollars for 1/2 hour of labor and a part that cost them around $50.

YOU NO LONGER RECEIVE AN ITEMIZED BILL THAT BREAKS OUT PARTS AND LABOR - Just a single line with the final amount.  It's like taking your car to the auto mechanic and paying an expensive bill and you have no idea how much you paid for parts and labor - Since you're not a car mechanic or in this case a heating and a/c technician you have no idea how the costs break out for the parts and the labor - Not exactly good for an informed consumer but great for the small business, in this case Rumpca.

RUMPCA IS NOT THE REPUTABLE COMPANY THAT I'VE BEEN DOING BUSINESS WITH ALL THESE YEARS.  In my opinion their new business model is to gouge as much as they can from the customer with flat rate pricing and manage their Google reviews so they look good (That night after they preformed the service they solicited a Google review from me via text message just like shady online companies do).

I will be filing a formal complaint with the Minnesota Attorney General and the BBB - Rumpca should have notified me up front that I was no longer being charged for parts and labor as has been the case for many years.  Morally suspect to say the least when a company changes their terms of service without notifying an existing customer.  I will also post my review on all other online review sites so others know the score.

We have had two urgent problems. A toilet had parts snap off in the tank - no flushing. We briefly debated do it ourselves.  We found Erickson Plumbing on Yelp and connected with them. A very nice gentleman showed up promptly and solved the toilet problem.

We've been missing a programmable thermostat. We revisited Erickson and they quoted us a fair price including bringing a thermostat. A very nice lady, Marie, showed up and made it all happen. It's great to wake up to a warm house. Okay

I bought a new house and they've had 3 technicians come over for free to make sure everything was good and they were very friendly and efficient and I've had no problems with service. Jeremy and Drew were great to deal with! A+++

I have been a using Air Mechanical for the past 5 years and have consistently had exceptional service.  The technicians are professional, respectful and great at their jobs.  They explain what they are going to do and are clear in their recommendations. I highly recommend them.

I have used Genz Ryan in the past and was super happy with the service. This time they really bailed me out of a jam!!! Thanks goes to Tom @ Genz Ryan..
Awesome customer service.

We hired them to put in a new bathtub and tub surround, now it's leaking all over the basement. If they come and look at it they are going to charge over $200 even though it was their shotty work. We also hired them to install a bathroom exhaust fan. First when the guy gets out here he tries to beg to get out of the job due to a family emergency then when they install it he cut the hole too big  they say they don't repair sheet rock so they won't fix that either. Then on top of all of this, when they did the electrical for the exhaust fan they messed up the wiring so that now I need to have both of the switches on for the outlets to work. I recommend not using them for anything unless you absolutely have too. They are awful at what they do.

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.

Not sure how these 1 start review got here, but my encounter with Dean's was good upon first impression, ongoing communication and a somewhat finished job. I only say somewhat because I had a new pipe replaced out on the sidewalk from where there was a major backup that had my house starting to flood water.

I will reserve a 5 start review when they come to pack in the side walk as right now there is temporary fill due to it being so cold. They are expected to be back out in the Spring to take care of that.

My first impression upon meeting Aketo Granberry (Drain Supervisor) was very positive. It is not often that I feel as a woman, guys come and speak way over my head. Aketo was very sensitive to that and made sure I understood the issue and what was needed. I had my own personal plumber come as consult to make sure I was not getting fed any BS too :-)

Aketo was friendly, knowledgeable, thorough and I felt piece of mind when he told me how quickly they could get permits and get the job done.

Due to a snow storm and a sick employee, the workers showed up a week later and they worked very professionally, communicating with me along the way and when they were done, they packed the dirt back in and cleaned up well. They worked efficiently with my insurance company and provided all requested information, and as a result, I received payment from the insurance an hour after they left on the same day! I was impressed.

I liked my experience with Dean's and signed up for their membership and will definitely consider them for future work.

We needed HVAC work done, and they were recommended by the manufacturer.  They came promptly and needed to order a part.  They missed their window to install the part by 3 hours.  The trip fee for the first trip (10 minutes, mostly spent processing my credit card) was $149, and the labor cost to install the part (in under 15 minutes) was $140.  I will use someone else next time.

No idea of the quality of this service as they never showed up for my scheduled tune up appointment. I waited over 2 weeks for an appointment and when the person didn't show up I called them.  First I was told I had the wrong date. I did not have the wrong date.  They called me back and said they had to reschedule my appointment but had FORGOTTEN TO CALL ME.  We had cleaned out the furnace room and were awaiting the results of the inspection to determine if we could do another home improvement or if we'd need a new furnace in the near future.  They REALLY caused problems for us by doing this!  I wouldn't waste my time with this company as they are obviously unreliable and have little concern for anyone's schedule other than their own. There are better providers out there who will put their customers first.

NOT RECOMMENDED -Beware

What's the deal with all these local service companies who buy up the small mom and pop operators then want to come in an sell you all these services?  Whatever happened to finding someone to do some simple work at your house who would just come in and do the job without trying a bunch of up sells?

I bought a couple of new lights to hang over our island and did the diy thing and got them hung-only for some strange (minor) reason they wouldn't light up so I decided to simplify my life and call an expert. Saw a commercial for these guys on the news so thought I'd give them a try. I wish I hadn't.

Paul arrived at 10:30, well within the promised window and spent a hour looking around the house in a safety audit to see what other things might need fixing. I wasn't expecting much as our home has been extensively remodeled -twice - since we lived here. I just wanted a couple of fixtures looked at...

His first estimate was over $2,100 for a bunch of optional work including adjusting my two already hung light fixtures, changing out some outlets, adding whole home surge protector and more.  I about fell off my chair!  To just tweak the light fixtures they wanted $333.

Needless to say I paid the $59 trip charge and sent him on his way.  I was totally shocked.

BUYER BEWARE WITH THESE GUYS!!!!
