What customers said about install AC
Bama Air Systems Mechanical Contr…Brandon Busby usually does our work. He’s on time and always very courteous and professional. He does a thorough job and make sure everything is working properly before he leaves and never seems to grow tired of me watching him. Do what he does. His patience is quite remarkable. I would highly recommend him and Bama Heating And Air.
High Caliber MechanicalI would highly recommend them to anyone. They were quick and reliable and communicated very well throughout the whole process. So thank you.
Proper Climate, IncI had my entire system replaced July 31st and am very pleased. Jamie and Clay showed up 15 minutes before they said they would and had the entire system replaced by 1pm. the work quality was exceptional, they were polite and professional, and they cleaned everything up before leaving. I have already recommended…
All Around Heating & CoolingWe were very pleased with the entire process, from begining to end. Compared to last summer our power bill has dropped and the house feels great. Call All Around Heating and Cooling for your HVAC needs. Thank you Wes for all your help.
High Caliber MechanicalI love, love, love High Caliber. They are hands down 100 times better than the rest. They are a fair company and on their trucks they have Colossians 3:17. Their motto is "Making a living, not a killing." You want a good company, call High Caliber. You want headaches, call someone else. P.S. Matthew and Robbie are awesome techs.
Proper Climate, IncVery impressed by Jamie and Kevin. They arrived on time, communicated clearly with us, were clean and concerned with not leaving a mess after they left, and were very courteous. Would recommend them to anyone!

How we grade
Satisfaction (54%) — Recency-weighted star average (2-year half-life), shrunk toward the category mean by review volume; the company’s own lifetime average as the prior; absolute: 4.0★ = 0, 5★ = 100.
Reliability (24%) — How rarely jobs go badly: share of 1–2★ reviews — 60% the last 24 months (or the 20 newest if fewer), 40% all-time; 0% = 100, 15%+ = 0; the category percentile can only raise it.
Craft & service (penalty, up to −10) — Google review highlights: Quality, Professionalism, Responsiveness, Punctuality — how rarely reviewers flag them as a negative, per review since highlights began; 0% = 100, 5%+ = 0. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in — clean highlights are the norm, not a bonus.
Value (14%) — Customers’ own price verdicts (Great / Reasonable vs Overpriced) and Value highlights; 65% absolute (all “reasonable” ≈ 80, “great” = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.
Momentum (penalty, up to −10) — Penalises only a real slide: last-12-month average below lifetime (−0.5★ = 0). Still 4.8★+ over the last year, or steady/improving = 100. Subtracted from the score (up to −10), never averaged in.
Replies to reviews (7%) — How often the owner publicly replies to reviews under 5★ (1–4★). Needs 3+ such reviews, otherwise not counted; 65% absolute (80%+ replied = 100), the category percentile can only raise it.
