Questions we get a lot.
Something else? Call the office. someone who knows the answer will pick up.
Do you charge more at night or on weekends?
Calls after 6 p.m., on weekends and on holidays add $90 to the price. The repair itself costs the same as during the day.
How fast can you get here in an emergency?
Usually within 90 minutes in our service area, often sooner. When you call, we give you a real arrival time and text if it changes.
Will I know the price before you start?
Yes. After the technician finds the problem, you get one flat price in writing. Nothing starts until you agree, and the price doesn’t change if the job takes longer.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Our plumbers hold Allegheny County licenses, our HVAC technicians are EPA 608 certified, and we carry full liability insurance and workers’ comp. Numbers are on every estimate.
Can I cancel the maintenance plan?
The plan runs for 12 months, then month to month. After the first year you can cancel any time with a phone call.
Should I repair or replace my water heater?
If the tank itself leaks, it needs replacing. If it’s under ten years old and the problem is a part, a repair usually makes sense. We give you the price of both.
Do you offer financing?
Yes, on new water heaters, furnaces and central air, subject to approval. Ask your technician or the office for the current terms.
Will you install fixtures I bought myself?
Yes. We warranty our labor. The fixture’s own warranty is with the store or maker.
