Recommended Customer Reviews

I was very pleased with the person who helped me pick out the new furnace and ac. Very informative. The price was better then others estimates I got. Troy A., Caleb K., and Caleb C. did a great job installing the furnace and ac units. They did a great job communicating with me as well.
Thanks!

Very disappointing experience with Buckner's. When my A/C unit was not working, they suggested replacing the entire outdoor coil and fixing the unit. Less than a year after that, my A/C stopped working again. When I called them, it took a week for someone to come out and have a look. It has been more than a week since that appointment, and I am still waiting to hear the diagnosis on the issue. When I call their support, I am told I will get a call back, which I never do.
Their work had a 1 year warranty. I am forced to find someone else to come and have a look at the A/C issue now, and will need to look up later on how to file a complaint for this absolutely unacceptable behavior.

I live in Smithville. Buckners put in a new heating/cooling system in this house in February of this year. Both have worked wonderful. But twice when we've had the electricity go off for a few minutes during rain/storms the Honeywell thermostat has erred out and had to be re-booted. It happened today and Honeywell support couldn't get it going again over the phone. I called Buckners at 4:46 pm and talked to Cory. He was wonderful to deal with and so kind. The weather forecast is for 90 degrees tomorrow. Cory scheduled a tech to come this evening. I am so grateful to Cory. The tech that arrived was Ethan. He was done by 6:30 pm. He installed a new thermostat and my house is cool again. Ethan was so knowledgeable and professional. All I can say is Buckners has high quality employees if they're all like Cory and Ethan. I give this company five stars in all my dealings with them.

Sent me a spam email. I don't do business with spammers. When I get spam, it ensures that I will NEVER do business with that company. Why? Because they've invaded my private space uninvited. The email was from buckners@customerservice.servicetitanmail.io, but the reply to that email was to customerservice@bucknershc.com. Why do businesses do this?

Updating this review as I've now been a customer of Buckner's for a couple of years.
I continue to be impressed by the quality of their work and with their ethics as a business. They provide high quality for a fair price, and they make the extra effort to do right by their clients. Austin W. is normally who comes to service our furnace and he is fantastic, I'm always happy to see him.
I'll continue to take my business to Buckner's and would happily recommend others to do the same.

Buckners Heating and Cooling were awesome! Thank you for your scheduling today. They worked with us and our service guy Colton was very thorough and nice. I highly recommend and would use them again!!

What extraordinary experiences we've had with Buckner's repairing our old Lennox heat pump & then replacing it with a much better Trane air conditioner. Every step of the way we were treated with nothing but the utmost kindness and respect. Team members were extremely knowledgable and very patient explaining everything, especially important for seniors like us. Incredible 24/7 emergency response time! No sales pitches. Pricing was fair and upfront. Love that they clearly itemized costs in writing, gave options, and kept detailed records. They called ahead to confirm and were on time. Every promise was kept. Hats off to Austin, Gary, Zach and Steve! You earned our trust and made us feel like family members.

We woke up to an extremely cold house. Our furnace was toast and due to its age we knew we wanted to replace rather than repair. Having an 18 month old who won't keep covers on, waiting until my husband got back from his business trip wasn't an option. The first company I called couldn't help us until next week but referred us to Buckner Heating and Air. Boy am I glad they did! I called and was put in touch with Steve who said he could come out and take a look right then! He gave me pricing over the phone which allowed me to discuss with my husband which option we wanted. Came in and did a great job and I had heat by 11am. Fantastic service. Thank you!

Furnace stopped in the middle of the night while the temp was in single digits. Called right away and Austin came out first thing in the morning. He got the furnace running while he got the needed parts. Came back out in the afternoon and in a few minutes we were back up and running. Austin was very professional and efficient. Very relieved given the current very dangerous cold spell.

They installed an A/C system 2 years ago and have had problems off and on since then. I'm so happy that the air decided to go out during a heat wave, it was a nice 90 degrees in my house. We had a family friend patch it until this week it went out again. Buckner came out to look at and it was a disaster. They messed with the A/C and the tech came to let us know he may have broken something but hopefully not. He then told us the blower needed to thaw, no big deal. When he was questioned about his work he threw a tantrum. He threw my husbands phone and said he was leaving and not coming back. The service manger then called to rudely tell us we needed to find someone else to fix it because they weren't coming back out. They also told us our 10 year warrant from the manufacture was voided. What are you expected to do when your house is 90 degrees and the people that are suppose to fix it refuse. You call someone else to fix it. Some time later the owner shows up while someone else is here fixing it and he gets mad that we didn't wait around in the heat for someone to maybe show up and fix our A/C (despite the fact many people already told us they weren't going to come back). He argues with me and the new A/C man for a while then threw up his hands, said a sad excuse for a sorry, and left. Some of the poorest customer service I've ever experienced.
