Recommended Customer Reviews

While not completely satisfied with the initial service I received because of price and and a misunderstanding on my part. The company owner contacted me by phone the same day offered me a refund of my service charge and discussed what he could do for me if I was still in need of service. I do appreciate their honesty and willingness to work with people on an individual base.

Have been doing business with the people At StandArd for several years. They are a first class operation in every area. Debbie is always helpful and I can count on her to get a technician to my house in quick order. Being maintenance contract holder has many benefits. Highly recommend!

Carlus Blu Wells did a great job fixing our air conditioner. Very friendly and knowledgable. Took the time to do the job throughly and clearly explained the issue.

These guys are awesome. I made a call Saturday morning. They called me back within 15 minutes to confirm they'd received my call. Technician (Eugene) called shortly after to set up an appointment. He came out on time. Did a great job and did it quickly. What more could you ask for?

We purchased a new second level unit from this company and had it installed, upon the final install, the unit was making an unually loud sound from the fan. The techs assured this was a normal sound. 1 year later, upon the maintenance of this unit, the company told me the fan motor was defective and wanted $500 for labor to replace it. The tech said it was a multiple hour job. I asked to speak to Tom, the owner who was rude and pompous about the entire situation, wasn't actually interested in hearing me out. After attempting to discuss with him, he abruptly cut me off and agreed to replace the motor, but would then discontinue servicIng our units. Low class. This isn't being customer centric. If Tom can't make money off you for unjustified reasons, Tom doesn't want you as a customer. It's important for residents to know that HVAC techs are paid commission to upsell you parts on every visit while some make over $100k a year doing this. Be wise, don't fall for their used car sales tactics in the dark. Undertand how they make money so you're not taken advantage of.

Incredibly thorough, conscientious, and polite. Showed up on time and stayed extra long in order to make sure that our filthy AC ducts were cleaned properly. Worth every penny. Six stars!

I called Joe Bowker at Standard and he had a guy out there in just a couple of hours to service my HVAC. The technician was Edward Schiller and was a really nice and professional guy. He spent a lot of time working and the fee was very reasonable. You should give Joe and his staff a call if you need work on your HVAC.

If you need a new AC unit- ask for Joe. Workers are efficient, friendly and knowledgeable.

Technician was very pleasant, but of course tried to add additional features. What I wasn't impressed about was paying nearly $300 to replace a shower valve. Yes I am aware plumbing can empty your pockets, but gesh! $120 an hour and $90 for a cartridge is just outlandish. Basically they charged and extra $40 for a $50 cartridge.

Take advantage of senior citizens. Their service team have been known to sell services that are unnecessary and costly. Run from this company!!!! A one star is too high of a rating.
