Brady Niswonger, a Cornel's Technician, recently came to our home for A/C maintenance.

Brady really seems to enjoy his work . . . how refreshing! We hope…
Had them do a Furnace and A/C tuneup. Kenny was on time, professional, and very helpful when it came to explaining what was found and how best to deal with and prioritize issues. Very happy with the service.

My AC unit stopped working and with the hot weather only increasing in the days to come, i started searching for service providers.

Kim came by for a AC tuneup and inspection today and blew me away with how helpful and knowledgeable he was! Polite, personable, respectful, and even the cat loved him. Thanks to Kim, his insights, and all his advice, Cornel’s has earned our business for a long time to come. Can’t recommend this company, or Kim, enough!

Arturo was right on time and was quite thorough in his evaluation of my old HVAC system. He went through everything methodically and explained all the things I might have coming up. The price was especially reasonable. Set up an appointment for options with regard to replacement. Felt no pressure at all to select anything. Highly recommended.
Eric was great, honest and straightforward. I will be using Cornell’s going forward for all my plumbing needs.
Eric was quick, courteous and super helpful. Will keep them on speed dial for any plumbing or HVAC issues!
I chose Cornel's for my spring A/C tune up because of their special promotion. Their technician, Hunter, showed up right on time, and was friendly, courteous and communicated very well. He outlined the services provided, supported them with photos, and explained the results of each test. He also spent considerable…
Ed and Travis are fantastic. They came out to replace my whole air conditioning system. They showed up right on time at 8am and put in a full day’s work with smiles and diligence. Ed and Travis are kind, professional, efficient and I am grateful for their service and attention to detail. My family and I are looking…
Woke up with cold water and ended up with a blessing! Brendan called ahead, was super respectful of our property, explained our gas water heater and how to make simple fixes our selves since this is new for our family. He showed us how to quickly view the flame and where to feel for hot water in the pipe. He…
I am happy to report I have had another wonderful experience with your company. Eric, the technician, that came out this afternoon was outstanding! Extremely knowledgeable and very customer service oriented. I look forward to continuing to do business with Cornel.
It was great working with Eric B today. He is very knowledgeable & a very friendly guy. I am replacing a toilet soon, & he made sure everything was handled on their end before he left. Would definitely recommend Cornel’s & Eric B.
Always able to help me out with any of my AC and furnace issues! Dan Bloomfield help me out tremendously with my heating problems, and I was able to get a new system set up for installation this Thursday that David was able to help me out with!
This was our second job with Cornel’s over the last year. Earlier, they had done a stellar job repairing/replacing a thirty year old water main. This time, we arranged for Cornel’s do an inspection and tuneup of the AC system. Appointment was easy to schedule. We had a text confirmation exchange prior to appointment…
Tony was the best, very thorough and detail oriented. He kept my house clean while going inside and outside. Also very friendly with my cats who kept bothering him.
Tony was great! Very thorough on both of our hvac and A/C units.
Tony did a wonderful job! He was kind & knowledgeable. Very impressed! We will definitely use him again for all of our plumbing and air conditioning needs!
Joe and Dan came out to service our water heater (which they'd also installed last year) and A/C. Both were great, super professional, and willing to wear masks when asked.
Dan was professional and extremely knowledgeable. He came out to service the AC and ended up fixing a C-wire issue in our furnace panel with no additional charge. Also conducted a full diagnosis of our furnace. Very happy with his service.
Tony was great. Gave me the options for our AC units without being pushy. My kids were being annoying while he was working (found out after) but he handled it great.
Tony and Mico did a great job.
Arturo was punctual, respectful of my home, quick to discover the issue, and clear in explaining my options. I appreciated the thoroughness of the work he did and the follow-up email with photos to show the before and after. I will definitely use this company again!
Cornel's sent over Tony to look over our AC unit and he was great when looking it over for issues. He was able to find the issue and broke it down for us to understand what was going on and what needed to be done. Very friendly and showed us how the system worked and other easy ways to upkeep the AC unit! Thank…
Cornels is the best! Look no further! We had them out last summer to do our sewer line and they did excellent work start to finish. Today Brandon Chin was here to give a look at our 17 year old heater that just stopped working on us and we are moving forward to have the job done with Cornels again. Honest and…
