Chris came out and quickly diagnosed the problem. He had the parts available and made a quick repair to get my AC running again on a hot day. He was friendly and professional. Beware though that some parts can carry a 400% mark-up, as did mine. That is my only issue I had with my experience.
Honest & proficient HVAC technician

This is to snake the bathroom sink drain Folks arrived on 07/31/2021 for a clogged bathroom sink. Upon arrival customer showed me the bathroom sink that was clogged and stated that it has been backing up. I proceeded by recommending to snake the bathroom drain, customer agreed. I then disconnected the drain and ran the snake approximately 25ft and cleared the blockage. I then connected the drain back to the way it was and ran the water for approximately 5 mins, the drain is working properly at this time. There are no leaks at this time. I also left an estimate to replace a customer supplied faucet and a shower cartridge. I then thanked the customer for choosing folks and left.

this is a estimate to replace the hot water heater. Folks arrived on 07/31/2021 to install new 40 gal hot water heater. Upon arrival went down to the water heater and turned the gas off and began to drain the old unit. After the unit was drained I then cut out the unit and disconnected the vent, and gas. I then removed the unit and brought it to the truck. I then Brigitte the new 40 gal water heater down and began to pipe it in. I started by piping the vent in and then the gas. I then piped in both the hot and the cold side of the unit. I then turned the water back on and filled the unit. After filling the unit I turned the gas on and spread the leak tester and watched for approximately 10-15 mins, there were no leaks at this time. I then checked over all the water lines there were no leaks at this time. I then connected a spill switch to the vent. I then lit the pilot light and set to the first setting. That water may take a few hours to get hot. I thanked the customer for choosing f

Snake main line Folks arrived on 07/29/2021 for a clogged main line. I started by removing the main clean out from the garage and ran the camera approximately 25 ft. I located it approximately were the septic tank was. I then ran the snake about 25ft and it wouldn’t go any further. I then began to look for the lid if the septic tank and found the inlet and the outlet of the tank. The outlet was flowing and nothing was clogged. I then checked the inlet and the tank needed to be pumped. Customer stated she is going to get the tank pumped and go from there. I thanked the customer for choosing folks and left.

I then removed the Johnny bolts and pulled the toilet. I then put new Johnny bolts and a new wax ring down and set the new toilet. I then tightened the tank to the bowl and changed the supply line. I then turned the water back on and adjusted the flapper. I flushed approximately 5 times and there was no leaks at this time. I then moved over to the other toilet. I started by turning the water off to the toilet and disconnecting the old Johnny bolts. I then pulled the toilet and removed old wax ring and bolts. I then put new wax ring and bolts and secured it to the floor. I then attached the tank to the bowl and changed the supply line. I then turned the water and adjusted the flapper. I flushed approximately 5 times and there are no leaks at this time. I then thanked the customer for choosing folk

Arrived at customers home to inspect the source of a leak. Upon arriving I inspected the shower to see if there was any racks in the tiles or grouting. I did find that the caulking on the bottom of the shower near the door was dried and cracked and also on the shower handle trim there was a gap that water was possibly getting through. I suggested to customer to let me silicone around the shower and shower handle trim as a way of process of elimination before cutting the ceiling open. Customer agreed. Once I finished siliconing the shower I told customer to give the silicone about a day to dry and then test the shower to see if the issue resolved it self.

Folks arrived on 07/27/2021 for a leak in the customer toilet. Upon arrival I noticed it was the piston drive inside the toilet tank. I recommended to replace the inside of the tank as well as possibly changing the toilet. Customer agreed to replace the toilet. I started by turning the water off to the old toilet and removed the old toilet. I then removed the old wax ring and Johnny bolts. I then replaced the wax ring with a new one as well as the Johnny bolts. I then placed the new toilet and tightened it to the floor. I then placed the tank on and secured it to the bowl. I then replaced the supply line and turned the water back on. There are no leaks at this time and I flushed the toilet approximately 5 times. I then siliconed around the toilet. Everything is functioning at this time. I thanked the customer for choosing folks and left.

7/27-fixed 2 flexes in basement showed Paula she is satisfied. Condensate pump for basement unit is plugged and working. We also leveled the attic unit it was pitching towards supply and water was overflowing out of condensate pan into secondary drain pan. Paula mentioned that she wasn’t happy about the coffin for basement unit being right on the floor and that she mentioned to Diego when he was installing system.

Arrived at customers home to further inspect main drain line. I began by cutting a section of cast iron out and sending the camera down the line to inspect drain line. We sent the camera approximately 70ft out to the street where it met with the city main drain line. Once we had inspected the line we then reconnected supply the main drain in the house. Everything was in working order on departure.
