The guys from Ballard were very professional and courteous. They were prompt and have great customer service. I would recommend them for your HVAC needs.
We were very happy with the professionalism and thorough work of both Ivan and Jesus! Both those guys are great at their job and great at explaining things. The only thing I’m not too sure about is the amount of money we paid to have everything replaced, my further research shows that our price is at the very…
I felt that the employees representing this company are first class. They are polite. They are clean. They are professional. They have great communication skills. This is my second unit I have purchased in less than a year from this company and I am very happy. As a retired contractor I find I am very discerning…
Two Ballard specialists completely removed and replaced existing A/C, heater in one working day. Work quality is outstanding. The team was very professional and worked well together and kept us informed during the day. They removed all of the old equipment and trained us how to operate the new system.
Fantastic all the way around. Professional, on time, and didn’t leave until the system was up and running perfectly. Bravo, guys!!!!
Everyone was professional and knowledgeable. They did a great job explaining everything to me. We had new HVAC installed and it was done in 1 day. They respected my property and it looks great!
Experience with Jesse was excellent-answered all my concerns with knowledge and experience-satisfaction in all aspects of my expectations of my A/C installation satisfied returning customer
Very professional and respectful young men for the installation of my air conditioner
Juan and Jesse did a great job on the AC installation. They arrived early within the scheduled window of arrival, and they texted an updated eta about a half hour before arriving. They were friendly and willing to explain their procedures along the way. They had a high regard for safety and cleanliness, putting…
My family has used this company since it was a kid and I am happy to use them and recommend them now as an adult. They can handle everything and you always know you can trust them! Grateful for their professionalism and expertise!!!
Daniel serviced my HVAC unit. He’s marvelous. He found a faulty part that he replaced. He showed me the instrument readings and the new part doubled the efficiency on my unit. I’m really pleased with him and with Ballard. Eric was my tech. He did a wonderful job clearing my toilet and installing a be garbage…
They made the painful experience of having to replace our HVAC system very efficient and professional. They took the time to show and explain to us the problems and offered solutions. They not only replaced the whole system, but added safety features that we didn't have before. It was an absolute pleasure working…
Great work and very efficient and helpful explained everything.
Gabe was professional , informative & very knowledgeable … got our AC checked out & updated. Signed up for yearly service for AC, heater & water tank maintenance… I would highly recommend this family owned business!
Did a great job. Very professional and meticulous.
Great service! Called about the air conditioning not cooling. They came out on a Friday and determined it needed to be replaced as it was the original unit in the house built in 1994. Came back on Monday morning and installed the new unit and were finished by noon. Very friendly and knowledgeable technicians. I will definitely use them again.
I like Brent he’s funny easy going I felt comfortable with him. He didn’t make me feel pressured into signing anything. If I didn’t understand something he explained it very well. I met Jose he took his time and made sure everything was done neat clean and professional. I don’t think he ment to work as late as he…
It was a sudden emergency water leaking into the stair way. Ballard team diagnosed problem quickly. Any fixing would be expensive and short lived. Old HVAC was 20+ yo. We decided to replace it. We got a loaner ac for my dad’s room while the work was done. Work was fast, they cleaned up after themselves every day.…
Ivan and Jesus were professional, flexible, friendly, knowledgeable, arrived early, and were respectful of my home and pets, I couldn’t have had a better team! I have used Ballard for over twenty years and have never been disappointed by the service or the product. Always happy to support a local business in my…
Thank you Ballards, we appreciate Jordan always doing such a great job taking care of all our plumbing needs from water heater replacements, to fixing toilets to complete house filtration systems at all 3 of our houses!!
