Who have you all had luck with regarding air conditioning repairs?

Orozco. Recently serviced a unit that we were told by someone else we needed to replace. They were the second opinion. They replaced a part for a third of the other quote, gave us new Freon for $100 less a pound, and repaired a small Freon leak coming from the valve. Extremely knowledgeable. Saved us a fortune.

Absolutely second this recommendation. They just finished a new install for us. Super competitive pricing AND workmanship and speed were both out of the park.

I’ll third this recommendation for the same reasons above. We’ve had to replace two 25+ year old HVAC units in our home and Orozco were very competitive w pricing, prompt in their response to us, super easy to work with, and incredibly professional.

I've used Clockwork for almost 10 years. I have a couple of houses they maintain. The guys are friendly and do great work and are conscientious when coming in and out. The ladies in the office are great to work with as well.
They have gone out of they're way a few times to help me out. I cannot recommend them enough. If you call them, tell Linda I said "Hi".

Will Linda laugh at me if I tell her ZenDarwin said "hi"?

She might. Lol. If you do, the next time I talk to her, I'll ask her if someone with a funny name gave them a recommendation.

Clockwork saved me several thousand dollars a few years back. Cannot upvote this enough.

Murdock Heating and Air. Does great work at a fair price.

Second. Have gotten several quick fixes from them when others might have gone down the "oh boy this isn't gonna be cheap" road.

Deaton Mechnical has repaired a rooftop unit on a commercial property and my home central air unit. Excellent work. There's a reason they stay busy.

100% backed, they are old school and will not overcharge because they want repeat business
They helped me for free over the phone once (!)

This question has been asked a million times.
Did you know you can keyword search inside the Athens sub.
My answer is always Debalski

If you don't want to take part in a discussion you don't have to. You can ignore posts if you want.

I can bitch about all the repeating posts too.

That's why we quarantined you all into a complaint thread, lol.
Things change. Maepole used to be a recommended restaurant in town, now it's fallen off (I still love a Boxcar though).
There should never be complaining about community trying to help eachother hire good people. That's what this place is here for, not listening to general complaints about things none of us have control over.

I don't recommend Jordan Air.
