Best Ductless A/C Services in Washington DC

Scheduled a consultation for some stains I thought might be leaks in my bathroom. The scheduling via Yelp was easy and automated reminders were nice to receive. On the day of the appointment, the tech called to let me know he was on the way and was actually 20 minutes early for the 4 hour wait period - awesome. In the end, the tech had prudence and didn't think I needed anything done, I really appreciate the honesty. I'll be calling this company again if I need anything in the future!

Mike from Clover was great! A separate contractor was pulling my refrigerator out and broke my waterline. That contractor called Clover to fix the problem. Clover's office staff was accommodating to my time frame (when was best to take off of work) when scheduling the appointment. I asked them to have the plumber call 30 minutes prior to arrival and they did. They were also there at the beginning of the two hour window they originally promised, which was great so I could get on with my day. They quickly explained the problem to me and explained what they were going to do. After finishing the work, they showed me what they had done and replaced my fridge (thankfully- that thing is too bulky for me to move by myself). They were in and out in less than an hour. Along the way, they were incredibly friendly and courteous. While I didn't pay for the services (the contractor who broke the line did), I will definitely be giving them a call for future plumbing needs and asking for Mike!

I needed a fireplace inspection. It had been a year, so I called OHA. They showed me where and how my propane was leaking. Short story is, they showed me the readings and replacement parts all throughout the process. I even got complete components added for replacement and my estimate did not change. They did all the work for the original estimate.

Fast, efficient and professional. My tech is Robert Vanpelt, don't ask for him. I want to be sure he is free to do the other work at my place. I want him to be my dedicated service guy.

I reached out a couple of weeks in advance to booked a non-urgent plumbing job over Yelp's request a quote feature. I got a response to call, did so, and booked a Saturday from 8-10am specifically so I wouldn't have to take off work. A few days after I initially reached out to make the booking I got another call asking me if I would like to schedule a visit. I said I had already done so, figuring there was just a simple in-office miscommunication.

Come the day of my appointment, I was ghosted. No plumber, no call, nothing.

The following Monday I received a text that a plumber was on the way (not the one they told me either). I called and they said I was scheduled for Monday from 2-4pm, which I would not have chosen since I would've taken time off.

Needless to say, I'll be finding a different company.

I had an EXTREMELY difficult to reach cast iron sewage pipe that needed replacement. Over two years, I'd had 3 different companies send out techs. Each one was a horror story of estimates and in one case (i won't mention them here) outright incompetence. But we couldn't put it off anymore and I tried Duvall.

The previous guys pretty much told me we had to rip down walls and one guy said we had to tear up our floors as well. So when Tyson said he could get to it without destroying my house, I was ecstatic. He was able to replace the leaking cast iron as well as old drainage copper with PVC for much MUCH less than the other guys. Probably because he wasn't trying to basically ask me to renovate my house to fix a leak. They did a great job, did it in one day, and after 4 months it's still holding up aces.

I'm trying to attach a photo of the pipe that got replaced.

Hired Pablo to fix our dryer that stopped spinning. Pablo came out to diagnose the problem, took the dryer apart, and noted the belt was broken. He ordered a new belt and replaced it and the dryer works again! Pablo is very responsive, helpful, and knowledgeable - our dryer is not a well known brand but Pablo still knew how to service it.

We've used Brian b Quick for both plumbing and hvac services. Every experience with them has been exceptional. They meet all the benchmarks of a great company. Honesty, integrity, fair pricing, and a highly knowledgable staff. I recommend them to anyone who needs first rate service
.

Daniel was extremely professional and efficient! I called him same day because our water heater went out and he came to fix it within a couple hours. I would recommend him to anyone in the area.

Bowman's replaced my HVAC system and water heater.  It was a big job since we were replacing a large water heater with a tank less system, and replacing a single-zone gas HVAC system with a state-of-the-art, two-zone HVAC system, and because I asked for some plumbing and ductwork enhancements.

PRICE. Bowman's price was in the middle 3 quotes. I chose them because the sales process was very informative, honest, and no pressure, and because I felt they had the most experience to do the job right.

FREE STUFF.  My AC was down, and each company needed 7 days to install the new system.  Oh the heat!  But, Bowman's loaned me $1k in parts to keep my old AC running until the installation day, and they did not charge me a dime for the parts or labor.  That impressed me.

TEAMS of EXPERTS. Two contractors said that this was a 2 or 3 person installation.  But Bowman said they needed 3 teams: a ductwork team, a plumbing team, and an HVAC system team.  Eight guys in all.  They worked their butts off.  They were very kind to me, and they treated each other like brothers. Obviously someone up top knows how to pick good workers.

EXCELLENT SUPPORT. Bowman's support's their stuff.  I have called them back 3 times for problems.  Once to insulate an electronic damper to silence a noise - no charge.  Once to determine why there was water on the floor (My basement drain was clogged and this was not their fault) - no charge.  Once to remind me how to use the new two-zone system - No charge.

In summary, Bowman's did an outstanding job, and I would especially like to thank Westin for his honesty, congeniality and fanatic support.

This review is WAYYYYY overdue, but Jefar is an incredibly honest technician!  He's also competent.  
Sometime last summer, Jefar came out to check a warning message on my thermostat that appeared to be somewhat serious (not time to change the filter or anything simple like that).  He did a couple of checks and made an adjustment to the system's electrical panel, and the message went away.  He explained that it was something simple though I don't recall what that was.  
The point is that since then (almost a year ago), I haven't seen that message, nor has my system malfunctioned.  After aout 45 minutes, he said he was done, shook my hand, and turned around to leave.  When I asked how much I owed him, he said I didn't really do anything other than make an adjustment, so you don't owe me anything.  I asked if he didn't charge for the visit, to which he replied no.  WHO DOES THAT?! I finally persuaded him to take a $20 bill for his efforts.

I recommend Jefar to anyone for honest, competent service!

Contacted Cardinal around 9 am, didn't realize their office was open at 7 am I think. Arranged to meet technician between 12:00-2:00 pm. I advised I worked 10 minutes from home and they would let me know about 10 minutes before arrival. Sure enough I was sent a text right about 1:00 pm. Ironically their office is very close to mine and soon as I left I pulled in behind a Cardinal van, matching the turns I'd take I knew it had to be my guy who was driving professional and responsibly. He took one way on my street and I took another. Met Zack Eanes who was clean and very courteous and greeted me very professionally. Right away he opened my clean out and got to work. He hit some blockage soon after entering the pipe but said he wanted to run it all the way through and he did. It was estimated to run well into the Service Authority's system. He then dropped in the camera I had requested and found another small blockage and pulled the camera out reinserting the snake with a large head and ran the pipe again. He then put in the camera and took us into the Authority's pipe showing me. Gave us a clean bill of health as it was just minor roots. Said see how it does and let them know of any issues. No high pressure sell up, just good clean work and fast! I'll no doubt use them again and will request Zack again. Thanks to Zacha and Cardinal!

This company has been really reliable, informative, prompt, and efficient. They know what they are doing, and they will also take the time to explain to you what is happening, what they suggest and why. As a woman, I consistently felt safe with all the guys who came out, and I never felt talked down to at all. They were also all amazing with my dog, who is very anxious with new people, so much that I think they actually helped him relax about meeting strangers in general!! And of course, their work is excellent and their installation looks very tidy. It is a relief to know that this company is so reliable in all aspects of customer service!

I chose Sila for an existing Unico system upgrade with some return rework for sound and new supply lines for a newly-remodeled room.  From research, I gathered that they're a high-volume Unico service vendor.

We agreed to a contract that would take 3 consecutive business days.  Sila completed the job quoted in the initial proposal but it took 3 months, 5 visits, and I personally found and fixed the final issue myself.  There were five objective mistakes. One issue was a misunderstanding between the salesman and me. I'll take the blame for that. The other four issues were purely technical. The Unico system is fairly simple but the installers forgot to install the heater component, installed the wrong motor, ordered the wrong parts and figured it out at our house, then finally set up the motor with the wrong software settings forcing it to run at full throttle.  I had to frequently call the office or email them directly to attain schedule status.

I escalated my concerns to Evan (GM that responds on here).  He was happy to continue offering help but didn't seem to have empathy that the job was 3 months late. I felt that he saw the job as a success.

As a consumer, schedule is one measurement of success and I accepted a high-priced estimate (30% over competitors) because I felt they would complete the work in one week.

I trust these guys are great for servicing contracts and hot fixes when you're in a jam but if you need a larger project executed on time like a full system upgrade, I'd recommend other Unico vendors in the area.

1 star for execution, 1 star for teaching me a lesson.

I called them at around 6 pm because my furnace went out. The tech was here at 8:30 pm & fixed the problem. Everyone was super nice & courteous! So professional!! I will make sure to keep their information because today they rocked!!! Thanks to you & the staff for making this process less stressful on a cold day in April!!! Only downfall was the price but hey at least they helped me out & I didn't have to drag my son to a hotel for the night.

Our tech Pete was early, knowledgeable, quick, and personable.  He fixed the issue,  educated my wife on gas fireplaces,  and followed up with me since I was at work.  I forgot to mention,  I called 4 other competitors and Jiffy had the best price for the diagnostic fee. Called Tuesday serviced Friday.  Thanks Pete.

Nugent has been servicing my furnace for the past four years. This year Chung did a wholly inadequate job. He gave it a cursory once over in less than 20 minutes and did no cleaning, unlike in years past. In a call to management, Walter would not give an inch. The $80 does not include cleaning. Chung is one of our best mechanics. Never heard a complaint before. The whole company line. No offer to make it right.  

NUGENT OR HIS SONS NEVER AGAIN. As an aside, I am wondering who they think is supposed to do the cleaning? The homeowner? Or is the furnace supposed to accumulate dirt until it fails? Or does Nugent expect a payment above $80 to do a cleaning? Five stars to one in a day.

Eduardo took great care in replacing our kitchen sink faucet.  When a part was missing in the new faucet he took the time to go to Home Depot and get the missing part.  He also noticed a valve needed replacing and he took care of that.  He will be my go to plumber from now on

My furnace stopped working on a freezing cold day right before Christmas. I figured I was going to be out of heat for quite some time. Not only was it basically a holiday weekend, but my furnace was old, a weird model with multiple brands of parts, and missing most of its identifying stickers. I was stuck at work so my girlfriend (freezing, at home) took the initiative and called Jimmy Gusky's LLC on a desperate, random Google search.

Tom, the serviceman managed to come out very quickly. He correctly identified the problem, plus a few other issues that might come up sooner rather than later. He knew what parts my furnace needed, was honest about what needed to be fixed vs what could be fixed but wasn't critical, and didn't recommend I replace the whole unit even though such a suggestion would have been a plausible diagnosis.  He was on time, met the schedule that he set, and communicated very well.

I got lucky and the broken part was locally available. By the next day, the heater was fixed. I approved the minor additional care that was suggested. Totally out of kindness, they even sent out a 2nd crew after the furnace was back online to do a quick system cleaning.  Just today, they called back to make sure everything was okay. Case closed, flawless victory. If only all contractors were so easy to work with.

update: I hired them again for some trouble with my hot water heater. Same experience.

If zero stars were an option, it would be my rating. Appointments scheduled with no show/ no call from the technician or company to notify. When I made contact with the company, each staff member that I spoke with was extremely unprofessional. Bobby, Wendy, Sherron and the unresponsive manager Chris. My deposit was taken on a service I did not receive and I was given the run-around on a rescheduling. Sherron was unnecessarily sarcastic and very unbecoming of what a company would want as a representative of their business. As a military veteran and current business owner, the service I received is completely unacceptable, and customers should not have to experience this level of ignorance. It's no surprise they have an overall rating of 2 stars on Yelp.

Call for AC system that was tripping breaker. (10 year old system) Technician spent about 20mins troubleshooting them immediately went into salesman mode. Repairs were quoted at about $2600. Technician pushed to have the whole system replaced ($6400) because repairs would be covered for 1 year, but a new system would give us 10 year coverage. He went on to tell me stories about customers that opted for the repairs only to have their systems replace within the one year. Seemed kinda fishy so I called another company. That's another story. Didn't use them either. Finally got an honest hvac guy to perform the repair for $700. The kicker is Magnolia's repairs were for outdoor components. Actual repairs were done on indoor components...
