Zach was right on time, professional, and knowledgeable. He diagnosed our problem quickly and explained our options clearly. Despite the fact that fishing wires was difficult in our older house, he always maintained a positive and cheerful manner. I would not hesitate to use Auchinachie for any service I might need and would be very happy to have Zach do the work.
I am only rating on the 1st call out I received. Joe Rojas was the tech that came out and was very friendly professional and punctual! he made sure I got the best deal for me. so far I give 5 stars for the tech as far as the actual service I will make another review once I get the service done.
I hesitated to call a big company but I am so glad I decided to call. Mike was a gentleman, polite, to the point and honest. He new what I wanted and/or needed and was very upfront with me. He made me feel comfortable and honestly excited with what the team can do! Cannot wait till it is done because I know without a doubt I will be satisfied. Thank you, Auchinachie Services!
The entire experience was professional and well executed. From my initial call and getting the emergency service scheduled through Jeff diagnosing the issue, presenting all the options, and fixing the problem. Highly recommend Auchinachie. Jeff was especially helpful in guiding me to the most appropriate service option.
Look out for the pricing! I needed the gas line for my dryer closed off because I got an electric dryer. They showed up and gave me an estimate of something like $700! I balked and the guy condescendingly wondered what I thought I certified plumber was worth. I told them I couldnt pay that. They called the central office (shades of car dealerships) got the price down a bit. I had the electric dryer there and, to my regret, let my eagerness to get the whole thing over with take over. To their credit they initially refused to remove the gas dryer but consented to do that since I was clearly unhappy.Still, it was way too expensive. The guy was pretty slick selling the job, justifying the cost by saying that they inspected for all gas leaks etc. But, later, I had a different guy over that I trust who said that tying off the gas line should have been basically a nothing job.
The job that Jeff had done was for my moms place, he was friendly, very professional, courteous, did a great job for what had to be done, and did a great job cleaning up when he was done. I would not ever think about calling a different Plumbing company. Thank you for doing such a great job. You made my mom real happy. And me too. Take care and stay safe.
We are so thankful to Paul and Todd from Auchinachie Plumbing for the professional job they performed for us. They listened to what we wanted, and completed the work efficiently. Its nice to find a company who values timeliness and service. Many thanks Auchinachie! Five stars!
My experience with this company starts with Elizabeth in the office. She was so patient and understanding when I told her the problem. She scheduled the technician ASAP and he came out the following day. I was constantly updated about his time of arrival. When James arrived he talked to me for a few minutes about what was going on and went right to work. A little while later, he found the problem and corrected it by ordering me the part that I needed and letting me know that it will be installed as soon as possible. He was polite and professional. I am very satisfied with this company and their employees.
Great service from initial phone contact through service techs completion of job. Tech Todd Bates was knowledgeable, professional and personable. He went out of his way to ensure the problem was solved today. He explained every step of the way and every charge. His knowledge of the company’s service and offerings ( i.e. yearly service contract) helped us save money and future worry. The company is 21st century with laptops for techs for immediate answers; processing orders and generating invoices - great new trucks too!Very happy to find this exceptional service with Auchinachie and Todd. Recommend highly.
This was a big job. I had misgivings about the work that was going to happen today. The work was projected to take 6 hours, and they were here for 12. Previous contractor choices interfered with the work that had to be done and caused a time-consuming workaround, but the technicians worked to make sure that they addressed the issues I had communicated that were causing severe money loss in heating oil. Although there were more expensive options available for todays services, I felt that the techs were helpful in recommending the most affordable solution possible for the situation. The cost was high, but it didnt change even when the time involved doubled. The work of this team of technicians was neat and thorough and their willingness to answer all questions and make sure that I was satisfied overcame any apprehensions I had prior to this visit. This visit demonstrated an exemplary commitment of this team to the highest degree of professionalism.
John & scott were very polite, professional & knowledgeable, when they cleaned my drains and repaired my toilets ! they went out of their way to fix my well pump. fixing the well pump wasnt even on the work order. these guys are awesome ! john Russell is one of the best !
Bill H. and his assistant went above and beyond to accommodate some unique circumstances that were present in replacing our central air system. He worked with us to have minimal disruption during the 2-day install. We are very appreciative of their flexibility and understanding.
I just bought my house and I needed some maintenance on my furnace and my chimney needed some work. I called Auchinachie, because they were the ones who initially installed the furnace, and I am very happy that I did. Paul and Todd came out at the time they promised and got the work done in less than a day. They kept me on top of the progress of work that was needed and necessary throughout the day. Both Paul and Todd were a pleasure to work with.
I purchased a new hvac unit with duct installation as well as a tankless water heater. Being in the construction business, I knew what I wanted and was not oversold by the sales dept but I could see the potential for that as with any sales job so just be educated as any buyer should. As far as the installation, which was very detailed and took several days, I was completely impressed with the knowledge of Tyler, Joe and Steve regarding the equipment and installation. This was not new construction, so they had to work around what conditions there was. They were clean, the work was neat and I was truly amazed by these guys! Wish we had workers like them! as for the bad reviews, i can only say the better YOU are informed about what you need done the better you are with any company. This was a costly job and they were worth every penny!
The boiler system went out early morning in January. We called Auchinachie because that is who serviced the system with the previous house owner.Desperate for heat we agreed to have the boiler replaced with a new on demand model and agreed to the 11 grand install price w/o pricing out other companies. Lesson learned.Fast forward 1 year, they come out to do the diagnostic checkup and yearly maintenance. I explained that one zone was not working properly. The tech went to work and had it fixed in an hours time. When he finished, he handed me a tablet to pay my bill over $700. The brand new system came with a 10yr. warranty covering parts and labor. Highlighted in the picture below.The tech nor receptionist could explain why it wasn’t covered under warranty, which I understand. But to this date, I have not received any phone calls or explanation to why the work wasn’t covered under the ten year warranty. Only a “someone will get back to you.” Please get multiple quotes if you find yourself in a situation like this and avoid Auchinachie.
Super impressed with everyone I worked with from the company. From intitial service person to, sales, to the team installing my new AC system. Incredibly polite, quiet (I work from home and there was zero disruption), on time every time, and really clean. No left mess behind. Completely painless experience.
An emergency repair request for pipes that had burst from a winter freeze was answered professionally and quickly despite it being a holiday weekend. Just extraordinary service, skill, knowledge, and professionalism. Spent nearly four hours and the repairs were of the highest quality. Just couldnt be happier with the job done. Service response ranks right up there with Amazon service which in my experience is the gold standard for customer care.
I tried 2 other local plumbers from friend suggestions...first company was horrible, second company said they would set up an appointment and then never got back to me. Auchinachie answered immediately, worked with my tenant to set up an appointment asap, and had the work completed by noon the next day! They were very communicative and showed excellent customer service. The pricing was sad but it had to be done and was comparable to the pricing of the horrible company I started with. Will def use them again. Thank you Ted!
The team that was sent to our home was fantastic. Carl and his coworker showed up early and stayed until the job was done. They left the area cleaner than it was when they arrived, and they took all the old parts and trash with them. Definitely would recommend this business!
Paul Marconi and his apprentice, Naeem, were super professional! They showed and explained to me the process of the repair, and left me feeling comfortable with my decision to use their service. I was impressed when I made my appointment and they gave me an appointment for the following day, and then called me back to tell me they could come same day - which left me with my central air working prior to a major heat wave. Thank you, Paul and Naeem! Super satisfied!
We are so pleased with the results of Auchinachies recent work on our house! Both of our showers had been leaking for six months. Mike Franey, John Russell, and the team from T and J Construction did a terrific job of finding the leaks, replacing the old pipes with beautiful new copper pipes, and installing a new shower stall and tub that work really well and look great. All of them were very kind, courteous, and efficient; they were also excellent problem solvers. We recommend them highly.
Called Auchinachie and they were the only local plumber able to come same day to check out a leaking pipe. Logan showed up within an hour of the initial call. He listened to our concerns and checked all the piping to locate the leak. He also made a few suggestions to improve our overall plumbing. He provided us with multiple options and worked with us on pricing. We would definitely recommend calling Auchinachie next time you have a plumbing emergency!
Joe Rojas was our awesome technician. Joe got the water turned off to the dishwasher and realized that the hot, cold and dishwasher valves were corroded and should be replaced. He throughly explained what he felt should be replaced and gave us 5 options for pricing. He also did a safety check on furnace and Rinni water tank. He showed us the corrosion in the old valves and discussed replacing water softener.I hope all of Auchinachie employees are this conscientious, polite and professional.Absolutely recommend this company.Thank you
Joe Rojas was on time and professional. I am replacing the water service from the municipal shut off valve at the sidewalk to the water meter in my house. This involved subcontractors and juggling to get things in place. Joe did an amazing job and followed up with each piece required.
They are definitely more expensive but you pay for their availability. Thats why I paid 500 more for a boiler repair. Came within 2 daysWent in eyes wide open. I asked them to replace a sink and faucet that I bought while they were here(was part of original appt) They wanted 800 to install brand new ones I just bought lol. There is no justification possible for that price. None I paid 249 to a licensed plumber out of vestal to do both. In and out under an hr. The workers advised me they dont control the price so not their fault. I would recommend calling a local plumber if not in a hurry. 5 stars for service 1 star for pricing.. a
Zach from Auchinachie arrived right at the scheduled time and made quick work of the plumbing repair needed - assessing the problem and replacing the broken fixture. He explained everything clearly and was unfailingly polite and professional. Ill be happy to use Auchinachie again!
During a time of urgency, I searched for a reputable plumbing business that would be immediately responsive to my call on that day. I called a couple of businesses in the area, and they could not respond because they were short on technicians at the time and were only dispatched for emergency only. I found a brochure from Auchinachie Services that I had received as a reminder of the other services that they had performed for me in the past. So, therefore, I called Auchinachie Services and scheduled a service appointment. They responded to the call immediately and dispatched the service technician (Justin Viviano) to my home on same day. He installed a new toilet and plumbing pipe repair and answered all my questions regarding other issues and problems. I will be calling Auchinachie Services and hiring him again to perform future work.Justin Viviano is very Knowledgeable, Professional, Courteous, and performs Good Quality work. This is a 5 *****Star Rating indeed!
Great people and fair service. Very pleased.It is fair to report that we had some rather major problems. Although that is the bad news, it is extremely important to also report that the entire crew stood behind the work and made everything right. To me, the measure of a business is just that. Auchinachie stood behind their work and I commend them for that. It turned out very well.Logan came after hours to fix my clogged drain. He did a great job and we very much enjoyed him coming.Zach continued with the service and honesty of a great team. Thanks.
Great service from my first panicked phone call “we have no water” to the two technicians who got my water back and everything in between!! The wonderful receptionist who answered my call, John who came out on a Sunday and went through every step with us to get our problem fixed, and Scott and Ian who did all the work all day in the pouring rain! We can never thank you all enough! Not having water is horrible…Auchinachie got our water back!
We had our furnace replaced last fall by this company. The installers were nice enough, but the didnt complete the job. They forgot to tape up all of the gaps, holes, and connections of all of the sheet metal used to create the return. Some one had to come two days later to tape it all up.Today, the furnace does not work. Not even a year. And now we have to wait until Wednesday because that is when they are in town. THIS HAS NOT BEEN A GOOD EXPERIENCE AND EVERYTIME I MAKE A PAYMENT I KICK MYSELF FOR NOT GETTING OTHER QUOTES.
Every time they have come out for maintenance checks on our “top of the line” 5 year old boiler system, there is something that needs to be repaired. This has been the case since day one with this company. The boiler is leaking into the condensate pump (both units they installed). We have replaced the condensate pump a minimum of three times so far. Yesterday the unit was sparking and today they want to charge me $500 to install a new condensate pump that costs $59 on Amazon, never even addressing the leak from the unit they installed. They also did a shoddy solder job and tried to say that it was done previously….you can tell work that is recent vs 40 yes ago. Better Business Bureau will be getting a call, as will my attorney.
We called Jon Day at Auchinachie to come do a full inspection of our homes HVAC system. He arrived on time after texting us letting us know when he would arrive. He was courteous and professional and walked us through every facet of the system inspection, taking photos of each component and explaining its condition. At the end he explained which services and upgrades he would recommend is a no-nonsense manner. He also took the time during the inspection to fix a duct issue that had been causing a loud whistling noise that had been bothering us for months. We plan on calling him again in the future for anything HVAC related.
Once we got Zac to our home (had to schedule 3 visits) he was professional and explained all he was doing. We unfortunely had to get Zac back as he left the fan funning all the time. When he did come back it was a simple problem to reset the fan control. However, then the system would not come on and we had to schedule another call. After another service person came we were left with a constantly running air conditioner. Zac, again after a missed call, came and repaired the problem. If this company had experienced people like Zac available we would probably use their services again but as of now high costs, inability to keep scheduled appointments and some inexperienced service people we will not be using their service again. The reason we used them was they had bought out our original installer business and service.
Ted came back today because my smaller condenser was not working properly. Come to find out that the maintenance tech Logan had neglected to check my secondary air handler when he did the service on Monday and the filter was totally impacted. Ted knows what he is doing. Logan not so much. I would highly recommend Ted
I called Auchinachie for a clogged drain and the replacement of a pipe. The first visit didnt fix my clogged drain although we thought it was clear. I gave Auchunachie a call back. Jeff S.personally called me, and came back to fix the issue without a problem and was more than fair to me. Thank you, Jeff S. I am overly satisfied with the outcome.
Joe Rojas was excellent! Polite, neat, knowledgeable. Took the time needed to diagnose problem. Took time to listen to me and actually hear what I was saying. Unfortunately he is not on your list of technicians to choose from on your survey. Explained everything in detail. Cannot say enough good things about him. Update on 8/5/22. I called over two weeks ago and got no response. Will not use again. I even said things were worse and I needed help then. Appointment made; he only called. Told him what I thought would work and that was the end. Nothing further.
Auchinauchi saved the day when our pipes burst 1/31/22, so I called them last night when I heard suspicious noises which sounded likewater rushing. Turned out there was no problem, but I very muchappreciate Jon,the service representative, coming out in the middleof the night to ease my fears.He was extremely kind and thoroughlychecked all possibilities for leaks.
Jeff Sinclair came out to take a look at a broken sewer pipe in my basement he quickly assessed the problem and provided several options to take care of our needs. He repaired the broken pipe promptly and at a reasonable cost and was very professional! I will be using this company and Jeff again in the future. thank you auchinachie!!
Joe and Naeem were amazing! They were right on time and very informative. They made sure to explain and give us a full review of our systems, while also making some suggestions for improvements. We will absolutely be requesting both Joe and Naeem for all our future visits!
Had Aichinachie come today to check our HVAC UV light system and air filter. Outstanding service all the way around. Service Tech Zack Pencek did the work and will try to stay with him in the future as our Tech. Soon ,you all know it, a furnace check come Fall season is due..not counting any number of items yet to check..Call Auchinachie and ask for a tech named Zack. Just do not burn him out..hes the best.R/A.D. Schaffer
Jonathan Day and Naeem F were friendly and honest, which I appreciate. Fully explained everything that was not working and told me what the best deal was to help save some money! They set up an appointment for an estimate while they were here as well. I would highly recommend them for any HVAC needs!
2nd updateHad furnace installed and have had several issues with trying to get it up and running and a leaking pump. But they have been great coming out and doing their very best to try to solve the problem and get it up and running. I have been very happy that they have been so wonderful getting someone like Larry out so fast to do get me back up and running. Hope that by tomorrow we should be 100 percent by the end of the day.Update my furnace had to be replaced and Mikemade it very easy to understand. He went over the process. Now I wait for my new LG handler to come in! Thank you!Removed and replaced whole house water filter with 2 step water filter system and fixed my furnace that hasnt been working properly. Justin and Rich were here on time, showed me each step of the plan and didnt try to push me into buying more than I needed. Also very friendly and professional and took their time doing it correct and didnt rush. I was extremely satisfied with the quality of service. When I made the original call it was very easy to get lined up for an appointment as well. I will be using this company from now on for all my heating and plumbing needs in the future.
They came out and gave an estimate of 3200 dollars which could not be clearly explainedChanged 267 dollars for nothing … shamefulCalled another company who fixed it for 500 dollars… bad/old thermostatI asked to have another person explain what was wrong… this was deniedI asked only to pay 79 dollars service feeWho knows why I ended up paying 267 dollars for nothingThey have lost a customer….Many many others I have spoken with have had similar experiencesOver priced and dishonestThey called and told me they didn’t like this review….
Got next-day quick, and good quality service. Thanks to Rashad’s team for fixing up a leaking pipe and being fast and professional.Update: I’ve used their services for my home 4 times in the last year since I bought my home. Leaking pipe, furnace check and repair, and now a central AC install. Every employee I’ve dealt with from the answering service to the technicians are helpful and have resolved my problems quickly and at a fair price. 👍
Auchinachie was fast clean and efficient the service tech Larry G.

Jordan is knowledge, professional and very patient. He replaced an old, tired oil boiler with a new propane combi boiler. It was a ton of work that he and his team did without fuss or complaint. The new system looks almost like a work of art as he was fastidious about every detail. He worked extra hours and even stayed until 8 pm the second day to make sure that my new system was functioning as it should. I asked many questions during the install and he very patiently answered each one. I couldnt be happier.Added 6/22:Just had Todd do an annual inspection of my combi boiler. I asked many questions and he answered each completely and patiently. This is the kind of customer service I appreciate.
I can’t say enough good things about the fantastic service I received from Auchinachie and technician Justin Viviano. His work was completely professional. He left the area after making repairs to the water filtration system and installing a new water heater clean and orderly. I also appreciated receiving texts about the appointment and that the service technician was on his way. I would highly recommend using their services.
Jeff Sinclair provided service today. He arrived on time, communicated clearly and explained what he found in doing the job. He got it done, as well as advising me regarding some future work and the means of financing it.I would gladly have him come to help again for any future plumbing problems.
Zach Pencek was awesome! He was clear and concise in describing the problem with the existing unit and also with outlining my options for remedy. He and his assistant arrive on time, with seemingly little effort went about their work quietly and efficiently. Their work area was left in the same condition as they found it. Very respectful of being in my home which I greatly appreciated.
I called Auchinachie to perform a gas pressure test. I was quoted a $119 service call plus any parts & sales tax. Lo and behold - I receive a credit card charge for over $450 due to an undisclosed $325 gas pressure test fee. No materials were used so the price should not have exceeded the quoted $119+tax. Not the first time I have heard of these guys over charging - but I figured with a price quote in hand and an extremely simple job to be done, how could this be an issue? But never the less, they found a way. Would not recommend for anything.
This is the Second time I had a Auchinachie come out and fixed my well the first time was when my pipe from the well to the house broke they came out fix it all in one day which was great they made sure that I was happy before they left Paul M.and Ian #1 and John and Ian .R #2 and the excavator Company was GREAT Bunch of guys they we’re always smiling very attendive to my questions they made sure that they left no mess behind ! This time Paul and Joe came out to fix my well pump they did a Great Job I can’t say enough about Auchinachie if you want the Job done Right The First Time call them !!!and You will be well taking care of !!!
Called in 2012 to have a furnace installed and they sent Bob Harlost to help me get setup. He was very professional and had all the answers i needed. Great guy and made it all happen. 10 years later I called to get a quote on getting a central air unit put in and who shows up at my door? The one and only Bob Harlost! It was like a blast from the past. Very interesting to see some of the things that have happened in our lives over the last 10 years but just as before, he was very professional, had all the answers I needed and I feel reflects what a truly great company Auchinachie is made of. A+++
Ray and Matt were wonderful, they were very professional and efficient in addition to being friendly and respectful in my home. I feel much better about our furnace now that it has been maintenanced by them, my husband and I will definitely be calling Auchinachie again and telling our neighbors.
So first of all I scheduled with this company back at the beginning of 2021 for our yearly cleaning of furnace and Central Air systems. The first time I scheduled they set up a four hour window and emailed to even confirm they were coming and then after I used PTO time that day, they finally called at like 5 and said sorry they didnt have any oil technicians left to send out to me that day. After that I really should of just looked around and found someone else but I didnt and rescheduled with them. No apologies or nothing they just nonchalantly said do you want to reschedule or not and unfortunately I said yes. Then Jay came out and to do everything and after that I actually felt good about his work. Even so much we signed up for the maintenance plan for them to come out once more in 2021. So the next time they came out in October again I used PTO time on the scheduled day and again same issue happened. Because I paid for the maintenance plan I had no choice but to reschedule due to the fact I paid for this extra service. So overall it cost for 4 half days of PTO time and not a single apology or anything just to get the two appointments done. Now come January 2022 we come home from a family outing and idk why but we walk in smell gas. I look everywhere and then check our furnace and realize it was leaking oil. Clearly had been leaking for quite some time and God knows what would of happened if we didnt smell it that day. So we called these guys for emergency service to come out here and they again had no oil guys available and said not to worry about it and asked us if we wanted to schedule with them in about 3 days. This seems like a B rated movie happening in real life I swear. So we finally found someone to come out because we have young kids in the house and it was below freezing temps. So this new company comes out and instantly finds the issue. They never tightened the high pressure nozzle line and that caused the leak. The new company told us to contact you guys and explain the situation and even if needed they would talk to you. After multiple promises of supervisor callbacks that never happened I finally reached one. Just to be told that they will ask their guys and cant believe this situation would ever happen. Well weeks later and still cant get them to just simply reimburse the $150 from the emergency service I needed from a mistake their technician made. Terrible customer service here, poor work clearly and poor scheduling. Being such a big company you would think they would care but I guess quantity over quality is the general consensus these days.Update:. This is because it is under my wifes name as she as spoken with you guys. Nothing was done and no callbacks to resolve the situation. Be careful with this company.
Getting an appointment was easy, but I really wish they would have listened to what I wanted done originally to avoid any confusion with my appointment. I received a call mid-day, day of service to cancel or reschedule when I had taken the day off of work to be here for it, even after I called in the morning to try and narrow a timeframe down and nothing was mentioned.. The service tech Jon was amazing. He explained everything to me, what he wills do/had done. He was honestly the nicest part of my experience with Auchinachie. Thanks so much Jon!
Our experience with Auchinachie was great - they were quick to respond, kept in touch, were on time and took care of our plumbing issue quickly. Jeff the technician had great observations and suggestions for us - we will definitely call them for future reno projects!
Our heat quit working and they sent someone out as soon as they could to figure out the problem. Our ignition switch had broke due to our gas pressure being set up for natural gas when we have propane. We had been using it for 6 years without knowing. Our system couldve been damaged more extensively but thanks to Auchinachie our system is running better than ever!
Rashad came the same day we called and he was wonderful! Fixed everything! Installed a new water heater... and he was really pleasant. It meant a lot to us to have someone come right away since it’s very cold ! THANK YOU!!!Rashad came out today ON A SUNDAY to fix a gas leak from the water tank. Wonderful service. THANK YOU Rashad!
Claimed to have repaired our heating system which they had installed 10 months ago! The repair lasted less than 4 hours! Called again to report that we had no heat despite the recent service! We were told that they could provide no additional help! Huh? What? We demanded to speak to a manager and were told the soonest that a manager could contact us was 48 hours! This would have meant going at least another 48 to 72 hours without heat and hot water with the temperature outside at or below 0! Repeat : ZERO!!! We were very unhappy!
These losers tried to scam my 97 year old mother by telling her she needs a new boiler for over twelve thousand dollars....turned out all she needed was a new circuit board for four hundred dollars...these people are crooks!! Taking advantage of the elderly and/or vulnerable people is disgusting...especially during a crisis event! NEVER trust these people, I dont care how many positive reviews they have!
Needed to replace shower faucet. Requested appointment online. Within 30 minutes I received a call to make appointment. They explained everything up front as far as Service Fee and time they would arrive. Text messages continue through the process. Technician Paul Marconi arrived within 2 hours and went over the price plans with me. I decided to have the work completed and I am very happy with the work. I like that the price is given up front and no extra fees added the end of the work order. Paul was very honest about the current state of the bathroom plumbing. Also very knowledgeable on other projects that I need to get done. After the work was finished, he took time to just have a conversation and even laugh or 2. I will be calling again as I have several other projects that will need to be completed in the future. Thank you.
Not only was the technician rude he also did not complete the install in a professional manner. After over a month of calling back and forth with the installation department I finally had my issue with the installation compensated by not resolved. For follow up service they have been rude and noncommunicative. would not recommend.
Ted provided quality work. He is very professional. Provided cost effective solutions to my problems. My repairs were done in a neat and timely manner. Definitely recommend them. Their office staff handled all my questions and provided a great walk-through of the process. Im using them again for more work I need in my home.
We needed an estimate to have work done on our well pump. The technician who was originally scheduled to come out to give us an estimate was unavailable, but the company was able to get someone else to us ASAP. Our Service Technician Paul Marconi was very pleasant, knowledgeable and we would highly recommend him to anyone.
Had a water leak from a failed shut off valve on our water heating system. This occurred on the evening of an ice storm. Called for emergency service and was told that no techs were out, but that I would be called first thing in the morning. The call came as promised but the tech called in sick. The dispatcher spoke to me and went out of his way to get another tech to arrive an hour later. Zach P. did an excellent job in diagnosing and replacing the failed shut off valve. Many thanks to both the dispatcher and Zach P for getting the job done correctly.
My elderly mother used them to repair a leaky kitchen sink. When I got to the house the tech had opened the drain below the P-trap on the sink and left it open. He told my mom the methane he was letting in the house was proof he needed to redo the whole drain line. I told tech to leave, and he did. I repaired the drain he had taken apart, and it never leaked. Then they sent the bill to my mom; the bill was over 1000$. I called the attorney general to start the complaint having previously worked as a plumber I knew it was all bogus. Never let a loved one that doesnt have a little base line knowledge about plumbing use this company.
John Day is very professional! Very personable! He was able to explain and break down the process of what he was doing on the job very very well! Absolutely knowledgeable about all the services that the company provides in extreme detail! I was able to understand what he was doing on the job so i knew what I was buying! To me he’s worth his weight in gold I absolutely mean that with sincerity! I would absolutely invite him into my home at any time to service anything in my house at anytime! If I could give him a 100 out of 100 I would do that! I highly recommend John Day to anyone looking for services to be done in their home or rental properties!! Thank you so much John and thank you Auchinachie services!
Angel Gonzalez was assigned to complete our AC installation. He arrived on time, prepared to do the job. He was efficient, professional, and courteous.Angel anticipated that more of the installation process had been completed by the previous Install Technician. He took the additional work required of him in stride and did the work of 2 technicians on his own until a couple of his coworkers were able to come and assist.Angel and his coworkers worked as a team to get the job done.Their effort is appreciated!Thank you!
Furnace ignitor stopped working. They were able to fit me in the next morning. Tech arrived right on time and in just a few minutes found the issue.Off to the warehouse to get the part and another 10 minutes were back up and running.They are a bit pricy but if you want it done fast and sure its worth the price.
Great service from Auchinacie! Not a simple diagnosis. Ray Allen and Matt identified the potential issue and worked back to locate the real problem. The part was not readily available. They called in the order and we’re back in less than 24 hours to fix the issue. Ray and Matt were professional and thorough and we couldn’t be happier…they also created a great bond, through their friendly demeanor, with my four year old who was all smiles while they were here. Highly recommend!
Had a washing machine delivered on Saturday and they couldn’t install it because they broke an older pipe and started a leak. Shrugged their shoulders and left. I scrambled for a an emergency plumber and while everyone in my area were closed for the weekend, this company is 24 hours and set up someone to come out as soon as they can. Someone finally came in a few hours and they looked at the issue and were able to fix the leak and install machine in about 20 min. My tech was Jonathon Day and he was very professional and explained everything and gave me the best options. Made sure everything was working in the house after the delivery guy shut off the hot water in an attempt to stop leak. Very grateful for his help! He truly wanted to make sure everything was working and we had no other issues. Great job and will be a regular customer.
Paul was absolutely fantastic. Very knowledgeable. Very friendly. Explained everything thoroughly, and my plumbing isn’t easy at all as this is an older home. He was very thorough in the repair work he was able to do. For my plumbing needs, I won’t use anyone else but Auchinachie and request Paul every time. I would give a 6 star rating if I could.
Jeff and Joe were very professional, thorough and efficient. They worked quickly to get our work completed, Jeff was very conscious of making sure we understood the components of our service needed, the options we were offered and the pricing associated with each option. He also was courteous enough to answer all our questions, and give us a heads up of any potential issues and what to look for in the future. We were very pleased and impressed and would recommend highly based on our experience!
Mike H. was amazing. He was able to figure out the best option for our new furnace and provide good pricing for the job. He was extremely knowledgeable for his field and able to break everything down so we perfectly understood exactly what we were getting into.Paul M and Joe R were first at the house for diagnosing what the issues were with our system and how to best handle our next steps. The were able to break down and show us exactly what had happened, why it had happened and what they recommended to do next. Highly appreciate the professionalism and knowledge in their field! They made sure that I understood what they were talking about and even showed me pictures so that I could follow along perfectly!All three of these gentleman were very professional, courteous, and made sure we understood exactly what this work would entail. I felt they really went above and beyond what might be expected from someone.I also want to note the amazing people in the office, from the first person that answered my panicked call, (I apologize for not remembering her name!) (Kristy and Taylor are wonderful!) to everyone who intervened and made sure that someone could come check on us that day! We have 30 degree weather and no heat with toddlers in the house. Thank you all for going above and beyond!
Jeff and Rashad were excellent. Very kind, professional, knowledgeable and honest. They offered different options for repair and replacement, explained intelligibly the benefits of each and did not pressure us to do or buy anything. They were punctual and available to do the work the following day! Excellent service all around. I would recommend them without reservation and will definitely ask for them the next time we need any service.
Rashad and Jeff were very kind and compassionate when discussing the extent of the repairs we need. They had options for payment so we werent left feeling shell shocked. They were very personable and friendly. It was like we were talking to friends. Great company to work with.
Auchinachie Technician, Tim, was on time, professional and did a great job explaining what our options were & other services the company offers. He was in no way pushy, which was great. We will definitely be using them going forward for maintenance on our new home. All in all, great service and money well spent.
Auchinachie Customer Service contacted me that it was time for the yearly cleaning of my gas furnace. A time was scheduled for the technician, Ian, to arrive at my home. Ian was right on time. I showed him where the gas furnace was located. He went right to work. When Ian finished he explained to me what was done. I was very please with his explanation of work completed. Ian was also very professional in his appearance and manner.
We have a fairly labor intensive repair on our shower right after moving into our new house. The turn-around for service was great, Logan was on-time and professional and we had the shower fixed in a couple hours of the appointment. He also consulted us for other plumbing issues in the house which was super helpful.
Auchinachie sent a plumber out to check our well pump. We had called a more local company and they wouldnt even come out. After setting my appointment up I got text and phone call confirmations until my plumber, Jon Day, arrived. Jon was a really nice guy and he was clear about each step he was taking and was really helpful and trustworthy. I will definitely call Jon in the future to help me again. Dont be scared away by the call out fee! The service is well worth it. Ask them to send Jon to your place- you will not be disappointed.
Zach Pencek did a great job replacing my water heater. He was friendly and efficient, explained what the problem was (no hot water!) and what was needed to fix it. He also gave me an estimate of what it would cost, and the price didnt change when he was done. Zach left the basement water heater area cleaner than when he got there, and explained how everything worked. Im very happy I went with Auchinachie, theyre worth the price. Also, Matt in the office was very helpful and kept me informed as to when Zach would arrive. I also received a text message with a photo of Zach, so I also knew who to expect. Very happy customer.
Bob Harlost came out to look at our deteriorating oil boiler and give us some quotes for a replacement. He was very knowledgeable and explained things in an easy to understand way. He was not pushy at all and made the process very smooth. We had a new natural gas boiler installed today and we are very happy with the whole process. The installers did a great job with our old copper pipes, corroded iron, and leaky valves. They ran new gas lines and made it look so much better in our basement.
Angel, Jameson, and John R worked on our hvac system. In 2 days they were able to replace/relocate our furnace, add in new central air and clean our ducts. The guys worked extremely fast and did an amazing job! They were all very professional and helpful. We have 3 animals in the house and they were always very mindful of them before entering the home. Overall we are glad we went with Auchinachie and thrilled with the crew they sent onsite!
Angel G. & Dylan H. showed up on time on Monday morning to take out my old compressor (seized) and furnace and replace with new. They finished before noon on Tuesday. They were professional, courteous, competent. No messes, no problems, everything tested, I would absolutely recommend these guys and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.
Wow!! Wonderful service as always!! Logan arrived on time, was very personable, knowledgeable and explained everything before he did any work. Once work was agreed upon, he completed the job quickly and efficiently, even cleaning up after he was done with the job. We will continue to use Auchinachie for years to come!
Was experiencing a little problem with newly installed boiler. Called Auchinachie at 10am and Tyler arrived at my house right after lunch! Tyler is very personable and professional. He got right to work and found out what needed to be done. Tyler, like Ray Allen, has a wonderful work ethic. He stayed and worked until the job was completed and made sure everything was working correctly. He was very diligent in making sure everything was ‘ correct’. He also very patiently and thoroughly answered all my questions.
Bill and Angel we’re the best they were on time courtesy and didi above and beyond my expectations. They completed the job on time and went beyond what was expected. They were courteous and friendly. They know there job and work great together I had an old a/c unit removed an a new one installed and there were no issues at all. They completed the job professionally and in a timely manner. They are the best in there field. Thank you very much
Paul and Rich were amazing in helping us first clean our HVAC system and then helping us install a new furnace and water heater. They helped us get the best price and even returned to check on the heater about 2 weeks later to make sure it was functioning properly. Highly recommend!
Very responsive and timely. Mike Franey was very professional and did exactly what he said he would. From the time I committed to the work it was less than a week for installation to begin. Mike responded quickly and thoroughly to all of my questions.Ray assessed and quoted my boiler zone addition quickly and efficiently. He also saved me 1/3 off the cost of this by coupling it with the ductless AC installation.Carl Snapp and Dylan did an excellent job installing my new ductless AC system. They also added a zone to my boiler as I had requested. My house is incredibly comfortable now. We talked about doing this AC for ten years. I only wish I had done it sooner.Thanks to everyone that was involved. I will certainly be using your business for my future needs.
Auchinachie installed a new compresor and were supposed to put in a new filter drier in the air condition unit which they never did see photos last june for the total amount of $7197.12 with a 1 year warranty. Less than a year the unit stopped to cool Auchinachie refused to honor the warranty. They wanted another $3000.00 to repair the unit.They were very nasty unprofessional. Every technician knows that when you change a compressor you must to change the dryer filter especially when you change to a different Freon. if not the compressor goes bad. (Auchinachie didn’t changed it like in the contract) but in the report they wrote that they changed it I called Auchinachie beginning of the summer complaining that the AC is not cooling .but they didn’t want to do anything about it. after a couple months I put in a review the next day they calld me I should take off that review they will fix it. after a couple days they called me that I have to put in another $3000 for cleaning and some other nonsense. when this machine was cleaned and servicetd in beginning of the summer. and they threatened me if not they will make me trouble.
They installed new Amana propane furnace in 2011... took them 5 separate visits to install the new furnace.. the 10 year full warranty is only honored if the yearly service./inspection fee of 250-450 is paid...that was never explained when the salesman sold us the furnace. So you need to pay an extra 2500-5000 on top of the $5000 it cost to install it.After a summer season of very little use.. I noticed a potential problem and called to ask questions. They refused to do anything nor honor warranty. Something wasn’t operating correctly with water supply to humidifier... water supply didn’t seem to shut down. Water sounded like was running to much. So I turned off water supply to furnace permanently to avoid damaging my wellUpdate August 2019—. Service tech who use to work for them checked out my furnace as I suspected water supply to humidifier wasn’t hooked up right.. confirmed. Auchanachie dopes wired it wrong.. . Auchanachie wired it to supply water anytime fan motor was running. Now it only supplies water when humidifier sensor calls for it. Shocking.... find an honest and competent service tech. Run fast away from auchanachie.Owner. I’m not calling you. You’d only want more $. All I want is professional competent service with honesty and integrity that can be trusted All I got was incompetent installation which could have permanently damaged my well. Things I heard your workers did on jobs. OMG Shocking!! Feel free to mail me a refund check in full.
John diagnosed our AC issue and was aware that if it was too costly we would be going with a geothermal system with another company. Rather than being competitive and putting down this decision, he supported it an provided helpful advice and concern about our high velocity vents—would the geothermal system accommodate these. He wrote up a timely and thorough report that I could send on to the geothermal company. John was thoroughly professional.
Although I haven’t had the actual work done yet, my representative Bob was extremely nice, communicative and pleasant during my initial consultation visit to discuss my air conditioning needs. I am very much looking forward to working with Auchinachie.Just finished install today and I am more than pleased with the quality and professionalism of both installer John and Carl today! It was a pleasure to have them in my home and they were extremely thorough with everything they did today. I couldn’t recommend them any higher!
Jonathan is indeed a credit to your company. He was very, very professional, courteous, and extremely informative. He answered all our questions and concerns with authority and unquestionable knowledge. Also, you should know, he was quite respectful to me, personally, as an elderly clergyman.We absolutely enjoyed having Jonathan in our home today. It is because of him and his sparkling personality and his knowledge of your product that I expect we will have a long relationship with your company. When we need to call on you for servicing or any other needs I hope you will send Jonathan to us for the necessary work that needs to be done.Sincerely yours,Rev. Steven Rousos

2022-05-27WARNING! Do NOT use this company. Apparently, I made the mistake of not checking out BBB reviews. Our toilet was leaking out of the base, it just needed a new wax seal. The tech told me it was $430 (this included a $59 fee for the call out). I had no idea how ridiculous this fee is and the fact its simple enough to do even myself. So I agreed to the fee. Now at this point live & learn, I had agreed and they did the work. But heres the thing....it wasnt just a really expensive service that Id regret. No, the condition of the toilet ended up worse than before the charge and resulted in an emergency fix needed! In this case, this is where I have a problem. I called and the lady I spoke with said they can send the same tech out (theyd wave the normally $119 service call fee, oh how sweet) and he would assess and give me an estimate. I told her I felt like the fee charged before was excessive, I dont feel comfortable working with the same tech, and theres no way Im paying more money for something that should have been fine. This was not a complicated repair, he could have only messed this up by absolute neglect. I requested a refund and the lady said shed send it on to management for approval. I waited and hadnt heard back so I also sent an email on the request along with a pic to show the toilet was even worse. Another lady called right away and said shed forward it on to management....again. Then next call, the guy only made excuses that it was under warranty and they fix for free, first off your paperwork says nothing about warranties and second off I was told when I called to get it fixed Id be charged more. The next excuse was the tech told him there was some hardware that was bent. Really, if that is your excuse why wasnt it fixed then, also there wasnt anything bent, the tech broke the securing bolt at the base. This guy told me he could refund $100 but AGAIN would need to get the rest approved with management. At this point, its obvious its only a runaround. Next day he left a message theyd only do the $100. Worst experience with a company in my life. Unacceptable.

2022-06-10Tyler and Joe are consumate professionals. They installed central air conditioning in one day, and a water treatment system the next day.They were polite, respectful of me , my wife, my dogs and my home. They kept me informed every step of the processes, let me know if they had to leave etc. They took precautions to make the job as esthetically pleasing as possible. They were very thorough testing, checking and double checking everything. They explained everything I feel I need to know to use the systems and do the normal upkeep I need to do. I couldnt be happier with their workmanship and will definitely use Auchinachie again should I want or need any of the many services they provide.

2022-05-31Jeff Sinclair fixed an external spigot that i had broken while trying to replace it. While here, he also installed a new external spigot on the other side of our house. He worked quickly and efficiently and did an amazing job. He didnt talk down to me and he explained what he was doing each step of the way. He was also just a very nice guy. I would recommend Jeff (and Auchinachie) highly for any plumbing repair work you have.

2022-02-24Auchinachie is by far the best company I’ve ever used! The technician Paul arrived to my house on time and was very polite and knowledgeable. He went over different pricing options to fix my issue and allowed my to pick which option worked best for my financial situation. Paul never spoke down to me or made me feel pressured into purchasing anything, which is something I’ve experienced with other local HVAC companies in the past. Also, I was very impressed with the customer service & Matt kept me up to date throughout the day and informed on when the technician would arrive. All in all, I HIGHLY recommend Auchinachie and will be using them exclusively.

2022-02-21Ray Allen and Matt were friendly ( even liked my pup!), professional and hard - working. They went out of their way to repair it professionally in one day. They explained all my options and were patient working with an old boiler. Highly recommend them!

2022-05-31Todd was courteous, friendly, efficient, and did a great job. He was careful with his work and gave us information about how to avoid our problem (a leak at the water tank exit) in the future. The prices this company charge are high, but we went with them beause they have enough employees to respond quickly; local plumbers take months. As always, time versus money. This business is very professional, and thats what you pay for. Their office is well-organized; professional on the phone, sends texts with a photo of the repairman and tells you when they are on the way. If Todd is an indication, their repairmen know what they are doing. Very satisfied with their service.

2022-06-20Todd B was awesome! He explained what needed to be done for the service (with photos). And also explained why having a package was beneficial and cost effective. He was neat and honestly you’d never have known he was working! We were so pleased with the service and know the AC will continue to do its job!
