Review and analyze now for company Coffman & Company and provide the analysis in the discussed format for the following reviews: '''After 30 years in home without AC, we just had Coffman install a Carrier heat pump! The team arrived right on time, spent the good part of the day on install without issue and instructions on unit was explained well before leaving. Property inside and out was cleaned up to my satisfaction.

Very good service/new install experience overall and I would recommend Coffman to anyone. Hopefully rebate with Xcel Energy will help with costs.

I forgot to update my review! After many repeat come out visits they finally had a Master Engineer come out and look at the system. After about an hour of troubleshooting he discovered the issue.

The waterline (if I remember correctly) wasn't giving the system enough of what it needs. He addressed it and the house now cools properly and isn't on for hours at a time.

That said their customer service is super great. I decided to hire them again to maintain the furnace at our new place (sold and bought a new house) and as per usual the customer service was really good HOWEVER the technician forgot to tighten our gas line to the furnace.

We noticed a gas smell and had to call Xcel in to investigate. They discovered the loose line and tightened it.

Kind of a serious oversight! I didn't dock any stars for it, but I do feel like additional training or checklists should maybe be used before a tech leaves a home. Our parents have the Coffman service contract.

They are elderly so we try to help schedule services as needed. Coffman has been to their home a minimum of 6 times this winter season for the furnace not heating.

This is a major problem for a 91 year old that is cold when the home is at 78 degrees. They are supposedly coming out for the second time this week because when they came Monday and charged over $200 the problem was NOT fixed.

Every time they come out it is OVER $200 even with the "service contract". At this rate a new furnace could have been installed for less money.

Shame on Coffman for taking advantage of the elderly! best repair company we have used very honest saved us thousands of dollars will alway call in the future office staff was great and Kyle. 12/18.

New install 2 days ago. There had been many issues over past 7.5 months.

Now - new furnace, coils, humidifier. John improved the return ducts, increasing grill size, reducing their noise level.

The furnace originally installed may have been the wrong model furnace for my home & my preferences, it was very poorly installed (about 10 subsequent service visits), and the furnace turned out to be defective. I have to give Coffman credit.

Anyone can have a bad employee, or install a furnace that has defects. I had to be quite persistent, but they stood by their commitment to the customer and made it right, including extending the service contract.

However, I have already found some issues with the new install. Very frustrating.

Hopefully some more "adjustments" by Coffman will get this review to 4 stars. 1/7/23 edit : Yes.

Subsequent visit helped. 12/14/22 After additional communication with Traci, just had co-gm John here at my house to evaluate the situation.

Finally someone found the gas leak I had been complaining about, that multiple Coffman people couldn't find, and said was "fine". John also agreed that some other things were not great.

We agreed on a plan going forward. I didn't get everything I would have liked, but it is a reasonable plan.

Will update this review again after the plan is implemented (includes installation of a new furnace). John also says Coffman will pro-actively work with other folks that had the guy that did bad installs.

12/10/22 update. Jake did 7-8 fixes on 12/8.

He did not do the full evaluation that I had requested from Traci, only fixed some of the known issues. Since a couple of replacement parts were needed, he also scheduled someone else that replaced 2 more things on 12/9.

Issue : Not a full evaluation of a bad install by an known incompetent, and since fired, employee. What happens a year from now, or 5 years from now, as other problems pop-up ? We are no where near sufficient remediation.

At a minimum, I need payment for damage done to my home, plus free maintenance on this system forever. And what about other victims of this bad installer ? From the many techs that have been to my home in the past 6 months, I hear that Coffman has responded to service calls from some of those folks and done some fixes, but has not pro-actively reached out to all those customers, and evaluated and repaired/replaced their systems.

To me that seems like a very poor business decision - maximizing profits and endangering customers. What do you do on a Sunday night when your water heater starts leaking all over your basement? You call Coffman.

I called on a Sunday night and left a voicemail expecting a call back Monday morning. Tracy called me right then and reassured me that we'd have a working hot water heater ASAP.

She called the next morning and Corey and Trey were at our home by 9:00 sharp. They were fast, friendly, clean and efficient.

So appreciative of their fast service on a holiday week! It was the best hot shower I've had! We just got the full Monty! Furnace, water heater, AC, HEPA air filter and Remy Halo UV light for indoor air quality. Very reasonable pricing, amazing customer service and quick! They were on time, laid down canvas to keep my carpet clean, and disposed of all my old equipment.

I would use them again and highly recommend them. Above and beyond customer service! This company was SO very easy to work with, from day one.

I had several bids from other companies, and felt that they were just trying to take my money. I do my research, and I know what the cost should be for what I wanted.

When I called Coffman, I hoped this would be the last bid I'd have to do. Well, it WAS! Jake was wonderful to work with, quick to respond once I had other questions, and we chose to go with Coffman for a new furnace and A/C and whole House humidifier.

When Alan and his crew came out, they were prompt, extremely courteous, efficient and clean. I was more than impressed.

Alan, in particular; is such a stand up young man, who did a few extra things on our system to make it even better. I have some faith in humanity again.

Thank YOU guys!! We live in a Bungalow in Wash Park, with three thermostats for two bedrooms and the rest of the house. The heat in one bedroom would not shut off.

My landlord sent Coffman and Company. Cliff arrived punctually, with heaps of experience and patience.

I followed him around in the basement for an hour. Imagine the New York subway system without maps or signs.

He found his way through hundreds of wires from the furnace to the hot water heater to the electric panel to the thermostats, thinking of possible problems, eliminating them as he tried one thing methodically after another. He went into the crawl space twice without complaint.

After an hour, I went back upstairs. Cliff stayed at it for 90 more minutes, until he found the problem.

I was astonished that after all this, Cliff apologized that he had "lost track of time" and that the part could not be ordered until the next day. I was touched by Cliff's mildness, integrity and humility.

You can expect the same from the dispatcher, Debbie. overpriced - take advantage of home sellers, jsut needed compressor and charged as much as whole new Ac unit We live in Aurora and needed routine cleaning and inspection on our air conditioner and furnace.

Coffman called the day before to confirm the appointment and again the next day to say the technician was on his way. Todd arrived at the expected time and was extremely polite and professional, taking care to wear booties in our home which was much appreciated.

He took time to explain what he was going to do, and then spent a few more minutes talking to us when we asked about possible options when it's time to replace the heating and AC units. No scare tactics that we have to replace right away, just a pleasant professional conversation.

Excellent experience and highly recommended. Wow.

How great Tom was! He came out to service our equipment for the first time since we've moved in. He took the time to explain everything to us and was just so very very nice and thorough.

He gave us several tips on how to optimize our complicated system, and we took notes. It could not have been a better experience! Great company! They were on time, super friendly, and did an amazing job.

They even left the areas they were working in cleaner than before they came. I would definitely recommend them 100%! After shopping around I ended up going with Coffman & Co and am very happy I did.

They did an absolutely amazing job replacing my AC and Furnace. Nate and Tyler were very professional and explained everything that needed to happen in Laymans terms.

Also, they found and replaced multiple electrical outlets that were out in my house and did not charge me. Great guys.

We bought an air conditioner from Coffman about 3 years ago. We have had considerable problems, but Coffman has stood solidly behind their product and have made multiple repairs under warranty.

One suggestion is you must ask for Jake, their lead repair/installer man to fix things. We had bad experiences with others, who said it was normal for water to drip through the ceiling and for the house to be hot.

Jake took the bull by the horns and fixed all the issues at minimal cost to us. Very refreshing to see a company fix the problems, although it would have been better to install our expensive 2 stage air conditioner properly from the start.

I had an old water heater that needed to be replaced and Tom gave me a quote and all parts I needed, if I wanted to replace my old water heater with the one from Home Depot. He did a great job and saved me $$$ compared to other companies, which quotes were by 100s $ higher.

He also was able to quickly diagnose and fix a problem with my AC. Many thanks to Tom! I called Cimarron Engineering Inc., dba Coffman / B&F Heating and A/C to provide me an estimate to replace a hot water heater that they had installed about 5 years ago.

The water heater was still under warranty and originally cost about $800 for both the actual water heater and installation. They quoted me $799 for just the installation of a new water heater, plus another $520 to install a pressure reducing valve and $198 for an expansion tank.

I thought these prices were too high and called another plumber who did the whole job for $250. This plumber indicated the water pressure was well within normal limits and I did not need the pressure reducing valve.

All I can say is RIP-OFF. Had them out to shut down a cooler and the guy was on the roof for less than 10 min and it cost $129.

With the recent temperature drops I had already disconnected the water line and put on vent covers, which took about 10 min as well (only that didn't cost $129). I asked what it would have cost had I not done that and he said it would have been included in the price, so I asked if there was a discount since I had already done half the work and he just shrugged it off with a confused look on his face.

Call anyone one else unless you think $129 per 10 min is a good way to spend your money!! Cliff just came out to do an inspection on my furnace. As he is the 3rd HVAC tech to inspect my furnace this week I can say he was absolutely the most thorough and informative.

He was kind and friendly and helpful. Really made me trust him and the company.

I really appreciated his expertise and time. I have used this company for years and the technicians have always been knowledgeable, polite, on time and efficient.

Never any complaints. They installed my furnace over 10 years ago and it finally died in the big flood last year.

It lasted a good long time with no problems. This was the best experience we ever had with a heating company.

After Heidi Hemmat did her television expose, Brothers came over and did the exact thing she warned everyone about- said ours was SHOT and we HAD to have a new one for $6,000! We fixed it ourselves with a part we ordered for $189!!!!! A week or so later, another part broke that we were unable to fix. Coffman - Cliff and Nate - came and did an amazing and outstanding job completely renovating and fixing and replacing all parts for $628.

Don't go anywhere else for heating. These guys Rock.

They are polite and they are HONEST. Tom from Coffman was just at our house because of water leaking from our boiler which we couldn't trace.

A search found water in a part of the pump that shouldn't have been there and Tom was able to trace the leak to a nut valve that somehow had distorted and was not sealing tight. He thought he might have to replace the pump but was able to find the exact same part on a pump in his van and with that replacement the problem was solved.

Cost - a trip charge and a charge for 1/2 hour of time. Prompt, professional, honest and courteous.

Highest recommendation. I have used this company to install HVAC systems for three different properties and have never been disappointed.

While I always shop around to see if someone will be better, I never find that to be the case. They won't necessarily be the cheapest, but they also won't be the most expensive.

They will, however, be amongst the most knowledgeable and most polite. Any recommendations that they make will be explained in as much detail as you need as well as any decisions regarding that need to be made.

Importantly, this company always treats you with courtesy. It's no wonder that Tom Martino endorsed them and that Pat Bowlen uses them.

I contacted and received bids from 5 different contractors to replace both my furnace and my A/C. Jake and Coffman were the lowest and were very upfront to deal with.

They came out within a week. Did the job in a day.

Everyone was courteous, clean, and so helpful. Jake even fixed a leaky hot water pipe going to my HW heater at no extra charge.

When the weather warms enough, they are returning to commission my A/C so that I can get the Xcel rebate. I highly recommend these guys.

My air conditioning didn't work properly and I called Coffman Air and Heating company. Unfortunately my most reliable, service oriented technician, Cliff Van Dyke wasn't available.

Someone else would be able to check the air conditioning that same day. Window of time for the tech to come was between 3-5pm.

Up to this point, I was well pleased. When we experienced issues, we called for professional service expecting solution.

We are aware there will be charges to have a tech reviewing the issue. To solve the issue would be additional.

The technician arrived at 4:15pm (a Friday). He checked the problem and said the disconnect needed replacement.

The tech was fully aware what we wanted, what we needed out of the visit. The AC needed to work.

It was a sweltering hot day (I assumed the company would make arrangements to make my AC work again). He presented the bill, I signed, expecting the issue would be taken care off.

Not long after, the tech called to inform that I would need an electrician. He didn't provide a name nor number for me to call.

I thought with Google this is a piece of cake. Big mistake! Try to find an electrician on a Saturday and Sunday! None was available.

Thankfully other HVAC companies responded and took care of business promptly and efficiently. My AC is working again, my weekend saved, if only temporarily until a permanent solution is decided upon.

THAT is what I called service, THAT's what professional company do, THAT's what "looking after customers" is all about. Not Coffman Plumbing, Heating and AC/HVAC.

Their response was: "We no longer have an in-house electrician. We charge for techs to diagnose an issue.

We have been around for many many years, we look after our customers" ........... I guess I am not their customer.

I certainly don't feel I am being looked after. Thank goodness there are many better options out there.'''.Read less

Review and analyze now for company Befort Plumbing & Heating and provide the analysis in the discussed format for the following reviews: '''When my pipes burst the day before Christmas, I could not reach a single plumber. It was a bad time for pipes bursting in my neck of the woods.

We had to shut off the water to our home through Christmas Eve and Christmas day. On the day after Christmas, I called 13 plumbers to find one that could come and repair our pipes.

Befort was my 13th call. They told me that I was in luck, they had just had a cancellation and would send a technician right away.

The technician arrived within two hours, and promptly fixed the burst pipes. The technician then provided two options for fixing the pipes so they would not burst again the next time we have extreme cold.

We selected a very reasonable option and we could not have been happier. Excellent quality, outstanding value, the technician was very responsive and the people on the phone were understanding and communicated clearly.

Would definitely recommend and use again! Colorado Plumbing and Heating was great to work with! They came within the timeframe they gave us, they were kind and efficient! We only needed our garbage disposal replaced, but they did a great job! We will definitely use them again and we recommend them to others! These guys are honest and reasonable. This property we needed work done due to a sale and it was out of state for us, so it was difficult to have workers in and know if what they were saying was true.

We got several bids. Some were off the charts expensive and wanted to replace the whole furnace etc.

Since our daughter had just vacated the property a month prior and all was working well then, I just found it hard to believe. This company look at all the requests from the inspector, informed us some were not an issue and priced out the fixes.

There price was reasonable and I appreciated their honesty. Thankfully I did not listen to the guy who wanted to replace the entire furnace for $4000.

Thank you to Brian and Joe for the final plumbing. Can I give it zero stars? Total scam.

Came out to do a service call on our mini-split. Started work and avoided telling me the cost.

Charged me $670 for what should have been $125, did not fix the problem, did not diagnose the problem, did suggest I pay $2000 for further work. Avoid.

They are great...on time and got it done...they may not be the cheapest, but you get what you pay for and they are the best. Highly recommend them! Initially this would have been a great review -- five star.

HOWEVER, when I needed to have them provide the quote (that I was promised within the week) they never got back to me. I really liked my technician a lot and he seemed very knowledgeable.

I was ready to have the pipe replaced, which would be several thousand dollars and no quote. After three calls to the company, still no quote.

I want to GIVE YOU MY MONEY and nothing. If you're looking for a reliable company who says they will do what they are going to do, call Brother's Plumbing and Heating.

This company responded quickly and efficiently to my call for help when we discovered water throughout the basement! I called around 4pm and Marcus H. arrived to the rescue 7pm.

He diagnosed the problem as a slow leak from underneath the hot water heater. He stopped the water to the heater and promised to pick up a new heater for us as soon as the supplier opened at 6am the next morning.

He must have been true to his word because he arrived at our house around 8am ready to remove the old and install the new heater. Marcus had the old system, drained, removed and the new installed with the flooring cleaned up to boot, in a matter of hours.

Befort knows plumbing! This was the simplest and most straightforward plumbing repair we've ever had. From the first call til Marcus walked out and left me with a perfectly running new and affordable water heater, Befort has exceeded my expectations.

The 'cherry on top' is their flat rate pricing. If I created a word cloud about this company it would say: EFFICIENT, FAIR, FAST, KNOWLEDGEABLE, TRUSTWORTHY.

Hire them first. Just had the best experience with Befort Plumbing and Heating figuring out my non-functioning water heater.

First, same day service. Awesome! Bell said it would be a week before they could work me in.

Second, (John) was here right on time. Third, the issue was electrical, due to a nearby GFI that wasn't supposed to be wired with the water heater.

BTW, that GFI was elsewhere in the room, hidden by a pile of packing blankets. This house is a new build so the blame goes to an electrician.

John's investigative problem solving was thorough, accurate, and saved me a lot of money. I could not be happier with the results.

We are new to the area so hiring professionals to come into your new house is worrisome. Needless to say I highly reccomend Befort.

They are in my Rolodex (so to speak). Thank you John! Jessica and the staff at Befort were very helpful ! Joe came by to take a look at what I thought was a gas leak.

He did a test for me and was able to educate me on what i should look for in the future , if there was one. I found this to be very honest versus him just replacing the pipe hose and not letting me know nothing was wrong with it to begin with.

I will surely use them for any future HVAC needs just based on the integrity alone! Joe just left and I am so grateful for the fantastic job he did. Had them out for the first time today.

Had called several different plumbers and left messages that I still haven't received calls back. I love that Befort actually answered the phone, AND got someone out the next day.

Had him repair a spigot that another plumber had messed up and replace another one. He went above and beyond and I am thrilled to have a professional plumber that charges fairly, shows up on time and is a hard worker.

Thank you so much for the GREAT work! Very nice company and the workmen that showed up were courteous, clean and polite. Looks like they did a great job too.

Only thing that bothered me is their pricing - which was excessive to replace a garbage disposal. I didn't have to agree to it, but I did to get the repair done.

I would give them 5 stars easily if the repair price had been reasonable. John was so helpful unclogging our drain, he was friendly, wore a mask, and quick and efficient.

Our sink is now running wonderfully and we can't thank him enough. Highly recommend this company, and John specifically.

They have been out a couple of times, for different reasons! First time, guys did a lot of work and actually replaced some parts, got charged a fair price. Last time out, work took less than half hour and fix was some Teflon tape, charged over $200.

I will be moving on to someone else next time. I hired Befort to install a new hot water heater.

They didn't install it to code, and then also didn't take me seriously when I had problems with it. The anode rod was faulty so I had a ton of air in my pipes rendering hot water essentially useless, but they insisted that my showerhead and faucets were just dirty.

Had to hire another company to bring it to code and fix the issue. When I reached out with my concerns, the response I got was less than helpful.

Great service here! I just bought my first house last year and when I came home to no hot water last week, I assumed the worst, having never been in an homeowners position before. Called befort, and Marcus came out the same day.

After a short inspection, he informed me my water heater was out of warranty, but definitely within its recommended lifespan still. He replaced a small part inside the water heater, and had my hot water running again in no time.

All around great service, Jessica was friendly over the phone, and marcus was obviously knowledgeable and very professional. Most importantly, I wasnt being pushed to do a ton of unnecessary work the whole time.

Ill be calling befort again for sure! I have worked for many contractors and Befort is one of the best commercial and residential outfits I know of. They have been established for generations and have great employees and family orientated which is rare these days.

The work and service is excellence. Thank you!!'''.Read less

Review and analyze now for company Mike LaBella Plumbing & Heating and provide the analysis in the discussed format for the following reviews: '''Today I was charged $200/hour for extremely basic plumbing work. Since when can a plumber charge more than my CPA? We had an issue with a gas line to a stove, Mike was communicative and asked for us to take a photo and was able to give us a good estimate.

When one of his team came out, the issue was two part and something not visible in the picture. They identified the issue, told us if we got the part, they could install the part and certify the gas fix.

Cost us more than the estimate, but it made sense. Very competent and knowledgable.

Have used many times. Mike was very competent, efficient, honest and reasonably priced.

Wonderful experience! Thank you so much for fixing our AC so quickly. My outside water spigot was beginning to leak anytime I turned on the hose, so I called Steve and Matt again.

The very next day they came out and rebuilt my water spigot. It's working like new! Steve and Matt are my go to guys for all my plumbing needs! Very professional, knowledgeable and just all round down to earth guys.

Their prices are reasonable. I highly recommend them and will continue to use them for all my plumbing needs!!! Holy cow.

I can't say enough about this business. Mike is wonderful and is very quick with his responses.

I love that I can call and he always picks up his phone and tries everything he can to help me. I love that he is straight forward and to the point, not to mention how affordable he is!!! He has saved me in the dead heat of summer, even during our 4th of July party.

This past month I used Dirty Duct's for my duct cleaning service, and John did such a thorough job with our house. Mike referred him so I'll leave that number here too.

(303) 907- 9856. I'm so grateful for these two.

Definitely trustworthy family guys. Thank you! Steve and Matt did a great job.

Showed up on time to repair a pipe leaking from kitchen sink into basement. They were professional and we highly recommend for all your plumbing needs.

If they are busy, trust me they are worth waiting for. I contacted LaBella Plumbing and had immediate response.

I had an issue with outside faucet leaking and was expecting a complete replacement of the faucet and connecting pipe soldered on inside of house. Rather than replacing, the faucet was repaired with washer replacements.

While I had a problem with only one, at my request both were replaced. This was a positive experience for me, I felt they were trustworthy, honest and provide quality work as I watched entire time.

They are my plumber of choice from now on. The furnace broke right when the high temperatures were in the single digits, of course.

We had the first company we could get come out (one of the bigger guys) for a diagnostic, but we weren't super happy with how we were treated. We called Mike La Bella, who was able to come out to do the repair, work with our schedules, and replace the inducer motor for cheaper than the other company had quoted us, by hundreds of dollars.

It's been a week, and it works like a champ. The nice thing about Mike La Bella Plumbing and Heating is they're willing to talk to you about costs and the lifespans and options of your system, without giving you the bigger-company spiel about "we can't tell you that information without an agreement to do the repair." Talking to Mike La Bella feels more like talking to a trusted mechanic than a shady businessman focused on the upsell.

We would definitely recommend this company. I'm very satisfied with the service from Mike and team.

The cost to fix outside sprinkler and inside regulator was almost half of estimate from other guys. They called me prior to arrival, were very helpful with any questions I had while they were doing the work, and did work quickly.

I'll use these guys again. Without question, Mike LaBella and his team continue to set the bar for honest and fair service.

This was our second experience with them, and I could not be more pleased. Our home AC stopped working on the 4th of July.

We chose to use a different HVAC company, and we were immediately taken advantage of. The next day Mike came out, and quickly diagnosed the problem.

Within an hour of having the correct parts needed, Mike LaBella had our AC back up and running, and his cost was literally 1/10 of what the other company wanted, and clearly his repair was all that was required. Mike LaBella and his team have earned our business, and deserve the highest praise! I contacted Mile LaBella Plumbing for an a/c issue that arose recently.

Their response was quick and the problem was resolved with no major issues. I was anticipating purchasing a new a/c unit, but that was not necessary.

I would recommend them as they are prompt, knowledgeable, and reasonably priced. I've had them do work before, but now I have clogged drains and can't get a phone call back to find out the costs or availability.

Guess that's too low dollar a job for them. I'm trying out someone new.

Really helpful and honest. The burner on my furnace wasn't coming on and Mike walked me through a few things to check before he came out and charged me.

Even though he was sick he recommended other local plumbers who he knew wouldn't rip me off. His house call fee is reasonable.

Mike will save you a bundle compared to Precision or Drain Solvers who immediately start running up massive bills. I requested a service to fix a leak in my kitchen sink.

A person named Steve arrived right on time. He was very polite, honest and very professional.

I couldn't be any happier with the service. Thank you! I wanted to use a local company, so I departed from my usual company and called LaBella Plumbing.

Contractor was 45 minutes late for appointment with no heads up. He was rude when he arrived.

Didn't offer to take off his shoes and tracked dirt into my home. When no fix was required b/c it was just a clogged showerhead, he ridiculed me for not taking care of it myself (sorry bud - I'm not a plumber).

Yet he still charged me $70 for 5 minutes of his time even though he had an appointment a few doors down from me right after. Oh and he also ridiculed my shower fixture because the chrome color didn't match the bronze faucet.

I have used them in the past especially since I believe in,supporting local business. He fixed my a.c.

compressor once but it has the same issue shortly after. Never could get him to come back out or return my calls.

Went with a different company. These guys just came out within 24 hours of my call and got our swamp cooler working and installed a water line to our ice maker.

Great service, super quick, honest reasonable prices. Definitely using them again.

Mike and his crew did a great job replacing our water heater system. We were extremely pleased with their service.

It wasn't an easy job and the finished product looks and works great. He recommended the perfect system for our home.

I would highly recommend this business. I have had Labella Plumbing and Heating come out several times to our home and am very pleased with them.

They were always courteous, honest and fair with their pricing. On the recommendation from a local Facebook site, we decided to give them a try.

We have a leaky toilet. After a call back, I was told the plumber would be there sometime after 2 pm.

At 5:30 as I was pulling out of the driveway, the van pulls up. He replaces a damaged gasket ($10) and charges $110 for the call.

Ten minutes of work at the most and $120? Why would we use them again? I called Labella about a furnace that stopped working recently. Fortunately he came out right away.

When he showed up, he didn't stop complaining about the fact that the furnace was in the crawlspace and how much of a pain that was. Also, I guess he wasn't used to using a flashlight and complained about the darkness in the crawlspace.

He gave some vague diagnostic report, then supposedly replaced a sensor. The furnace failed again a few weeks later- I called someone else and they are confident that the sensor was never replaced.

The bottom line: They got my furnace working for a few weeks, but I'm not sure exactly what they did and their attitude was almost hostile. The hot water shutoff valve under our kitchen sink failed.

Small flood and no water! Based on neighborhood reviews, I called La Bella P & H. They took my information and he called back within the hour.

He said he'd be here in two hours and was here on time. He fixed it quickly and I have water again! They're a local, family-owned business.

I'd call them again anytime. I used Mike La Bella Plumbing & Heating toward the end of last heating system when on a very cold morning I awoke to a broken furnace.

Turns out the inducer motor had failed. Within a couple of hours of calling Mike La Bella Plumbing & Heating, my furnace was fixed, tuned and operating perfectly.

Mikes crew showed me the failed part (which was quite obviously bad) and explained the inner workings of my furnace. Mike himself even stopped by to make sure everything was just perfect.

It was. Tremendous service at an excellent price.

This is the only place I will call for plumbing and heating issues from now on. So before calling these guys, I had read the review by Dan R., who experienced complaining and an "almost hostile" attitude from the contractor.

But I thought this was probably an isolated incident, and I decided to give my local plumbing contractor a call anyway. Well, I'm here to tell you that we had a similar poor experience.

We hired him to replace a few valves under the kitchen sink, and he actually complained about having to pull out the dishwasher to replace the water supply hose. (boo hoo).

I had spoken with him on the phone and explained exactly what the job was--including the dishwasher. My wife met him at the house and was very upset by his complaining, and by what she perceived as him trying to make her feel stupid.

So much for trying to support the local guy. The work itself was fine--though it was a really easy job.

After calling Precision Heating and getting told we needed to spend $13000-$15000 for a new furnace and A/C, I decided to call La Bella Plumbing. Thank goodness as a new motor for our A/C was only $525! Precision told me that our A/C and Furnace were incompatible and that it was possible the compressor was also not working but that they wouldn't know that until they took the motor out.

Mike knew within a few minutes that the compressor was fine. Precision was also telling me we should get a Steam Humidifier which Mike explained, we did not need to spend that kind of money on.

Mike was able to get out to our home within a day of our calling and got the new motor installed within an hour of diagnosis. We will always call LaBella for our future HVAC needs.

They are an honest company that doesn't prey on people to make huge commissions!'''.Read less
