Very professional, excellent work, on time,. The salesman Don took his time and explained everything to me. The installer Joe was very nice and did professional excellent work. I highly recommend Thornton and Grooms.
Outstanding work from Joseph Czank, David Majeska, Seth Keefer, Sael Olivares, and Raymond Thompkins (Heating & Cooling and Electrical Install teams). They completely removed our 21-year-old HVAC system, installed a new single-stage Lennox setup, rerouted electrical to a new location, and added an electrical panel…
In a word, awesome. I absolutely would recommend these guys. Total professionals. Our old AC and furnace had been acting up. Sparing everyone the details, we were experiencing problems every year with the old units. The AC unit was leaking water in the basement late in the day. I called, left a message with the AI…
We have been a customer with Thornton & Grooms for several years. Brandon and team were very professional and knowledgeable. He answered any of our questions and explained how our new furnace and air conditioner worked. I would highly recommend him!
Nick from Thornton &Grooms came over to do the yearly maintenance on my A/C. He was very thorough, professional, and easy to work with. He explained all of the mechanics that he would be checking and explained them to me. He took the time to explain how the UV lights worked inside the unit and showed me how to…
Tequila is very knowledgeable with the Lennox line of home comfort systems and am looking forward to the installation and everyday use of our new system
Brandon and his team were great. Professional, respectful of my home, patient explaining the new thermostat operation. Answered all my questions. Assuming this is a good system considering the price, I would recommend them.
Over the years, since 2018 , we have had Thornton & Grooms install and service a number of items in our home. We appreciate the cordial, professional manner shown by each of the T&G people.
Best, quickest and neatest replacement of complete HVAC system! Very knowledgeable and courteous- highly recommend
Donte was very efficient and thorough in explaining all the details and information on installing a new air conditioning unit and system. I enjoyed learning and talking to him, I haven’t decided to go with his company yet still collecting estimates.
Tequila was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and helpful in figuring out which AC would best fit our needs and space.
Every part of the process so far has been timely professional and priced reasonably. Our sewer drains from the house we clogged and not even water could penetrate and flow through our drains. We called late in the afternoon and due to flooding of the basement they promised a technician would be to our house that…
Took advantage of an elderly couple who didn’t know any better during a mini split install, charged $8100 for a single head unit straightforward installation 12k Mitsubishi unit and then “discounted it” $700 to make them feel like they were getting a good deal. $5000+ in labor and a $2500 retail worth of equipment.…
He was knowledgeable and helpful and efficient with his time. I give him a "👍 "!
Chris provided a thorough analysis of our HVAC system. He provided multiple options, with pricing, and financing. We really appreciated his friendliness and service.
Excellent service from Jeremy and Seth. They did a full day install of a furnace, humidifier, and ac unit. This was a big job and I never heard them all day aside from occasional screw drivers. They were polite and professional.
Install went well and they did a great job sealing up everything they worked on. They cleaned up pretty well and house is starting to cool off already.
Very Knowledgeable and Friendly!
I have a T&G service contract and when Medhie came out (on Tuesday) he discovered water issues and holes in both of my Lennox units. The repair costs were going tk be substantial so I asked for a sales guy to come out and Brian come out the following day (Wednesday) and we talked thru the options. He helped me…
Several years of quality, quick work by all T &G technicians! Ricardo, Jeff W. and Tony Paterno have been especially great! Customer since 2019
Kevin and Matt were Very personal and professional.
Devin was outstanding. Very respectful, thorough and nice. Great job
I was calling around for estimates for a central air conditioner. Thorne and Grooms was on of the companies called. Appointed made easily with their Bot for same day as called service 3PM. Ms. Tequila Wilkerson arrived promptly. Very cordial. She accessed the outdoor equipment already at the house(including…
T&G's quote was very competitive and there install date was very timely too. Curt were very professional, on time, clean and respectful. They did an outstanding job of installing a second water meter.
AC unit replacement. Such a pleasant and knowledgeable young man. Did an excellent job. Kept us informed the whole time.
June 2026 - I have another great review for Thornton and Grooms. Jeron Greene came to check out our AC unit, and addressed other minor concerns we had. He was very friendly, professional, personable and took time to explain anything we asked. We've had T&G out at least 5 times now and each time the technicians and…
Craig is a professional. Videoed my sewer line. Knew what he was doing, explained everything in detail, laid out options. Great first impression.
Fantastic work! Sael, Brandon, and everyone else I communicated with on the crew were extremely professional and explained everything clearly.
Very professional AC installation. I strongly recommend them for a proper installation
Ian was very professional and did a great job updating our electrical to accommodate our new AC unit.
Eric was exceptional:Gave a true estimate of HVAC Explained options so I could understand Used his own system as a basis for recommendations Suggestions were based on area of house not on me too product Thoroughly enjoyed being with him; professional, aware of my concerns, discussed with me as he would a friend He…
We’ve always loved the level of service that T&G provides, but Zeke went above and beyond! Really happy, job well done.
Hired Thornton & Grooms for the purchase and installation of a brand new furnace and air conditioning unit. We got several quotes from many companies. Thornton & Grooms biggest selling point was that these things are all about the installation being done properly. People need to hire a solid company like theirs…
Outstanding
The new equipment was installed without issue and actually quicker than expected. The tech took time to explain the work before during and after the installation was complete
Dan was my tech and I found him to be trustworthy and honest in his assessment of our cooling system diagnosis.
I worked mostly with Dionne Kennedy. She is the absolute best. She answered every question I had and I had a lot of of them. She made the process of purchasing two furnaces and two air conditioners very easy and smooth. I must admit, she is the main reason that I used Thornton and Grooms. I would highly recommend…
Thornton & Grooms representative Chip Stone provided estimates to replace our HVAC systems. Chip was very knowledgeable, informative and clear in his presentation. It was a pleasure to work with him. His estimate was the second best out of 5 that we got.
Excellent customer service and professional installation
They provide excellent quality service and explained everything that was done. And we're done by the quoted time.
From the sales team to the installation team. The entire process was done with professionalism and respect.
Anthony was Amazing as an installer for our Furnace, Air cleaner, and Humidifier along with all the ductwork involved. He’s very knowledgeable, Efficient, and his experience shows in his work. We would not hesitate in referring him to anyone who needs the work done.
Very professional explained everything very well I would recommend this company to anybody
Trustworthy company. We’ve interacted with many of their staff over the years & they have all been kind & very competent.
Thorton and Groom was a pleasure to work with from the quote thru the installation. Replacement was expensive but multiple quotes were comparative I am glad I went with them
Quick response for water heater inspection
I would 100% recommend Thornton & Grooms for your HVAC installation. From making the appointment to the install of my furnace and A/C unit was 5 star service. I had my installation done in November 2025. It started out that I caught the furnace inspection deal so I can get my furnace checked out. Stephen C. came…
Update (12/30/2025) Thanks to Devin D for performing scheduled Plumbing Inspection and Maintenance. Devin was professional, knowledgeable and efficient. The cost for this visit was "zero", as it was covered under Thornton & Grooms' Annual Prepaid Service Plan. (5/5 stars)! -- David H ===== Update (06/11/2025) Thanks…
Zak P was great. Informational and professional. **2025 update** Dave L & Andre C. were great too! Kudos to the entire team over there.
The Thornton & Grooms team of 3 install technicians came to our house on time and worked very hard to tear out both our furnace and A/C and install new furnace and A/C. This included a new chimney liner. The work was done in one day. We're very happy with the work done by the T&G team today.
Written in approximately 2017 --- I am thrilled with my experience with Thornton and Grooms...all 20+ times they've been out over the years. They absolutely have a knack for hiring the perfect service technicians. Bill Richards is our go-to guy for plumbing and Will Walker for HVAC. We've had others come out, and…
Always willing to explain the issue and offer opinion and not feel pressured to make a decision immediately
Chip was very nice, personable, knowledgeable, and supportive. Being told you need a new furnace three days before thanksgiving at the tune of $9000 was not ideal but Chip helped us through all our options and made us feel comfortable with our decisions. Very satisfied.
I was simply amazed at Thornton & Grooms professionalism, knowledge and integrity on all the changes I needed. Shout out to Tequila W. Who not only took her time but walked me through everything with keeping my budget intact. Anything HVAC make sure you ask for her. I will be using their services forever.
I appreciate your service Guy coming to my house And fixing the pipe leak.
12-5-24 If you’re looking for a quick answer, you will find no one else better as I can confidently say with the experiences not only we’ve had, but my parents who first referred me, we’ll be customers for life! For those of you like myself who like to know the why someone feels a certain way, let me explain. A few…
Just had a new furnace and air conditioner installed. The T&G team did a fantastic job. Our job was a bit more complicated than they first anticipated and didn’t rush the process to do it right. They were at my home for about 11 hours! We had this job quoted by 4 different recommended companies from the Lennox…
Ooh my goodness! Installed a boiler like the champions they are, Perfect! These guys are 1 in a million! Excellent all around!!!!! Thanks so much! I will be using T and G for all our needs!! Amazing!

T&G has done work for us over the last 9 years, and every experience has been totally professional with fantastic employees, super easy to work with, answering every question with completeness, doing the job right, and standing behind their work. Today’s work involved a yearly check of out furnaces. Adam did a very…
I have had a troupe of T&G staff in and out of my house this week! All very polite, efficient and informative. Joseph Czank confirmed not only did my furnace need replacing but that it was DANGEROUS to operate. Brian Marshall was able to come within a couple of hours and very thoroughly go over options, pricing and…
Miles was very professional and knowledgeable about systems. Will use and recommend this company to other friends .
Excellent service - on time - professional and reliable
The employees at this company have been the friendliest and most responsive service providers I have ever dealt with. They installed a new furnace and AC unit for us. We met with the sales person on Monday, and they had a team out here on Tuesday. They have responded to any concerns we have had within 24 hours or…
Detailed, knowledgeable and very professional. Each detail was explained to me clearly and the end result was awesome. Great
Jerimie came to install a new furnace and AC unit. He was on time, friendly, and informative. Got the job done earlier than estimated. Great experience.
Very friendly and provided possible solutions and estimates upfront. Appreciate the honesty as it is one of the most critical aspects selecting plumbers.
I had a new AC installed less than 30 days ago by Thornton & Grooms. There have been a few reasons since then that I would reccommend against using Thornton & Grooms ... First, I had my new AC that costed over $8000 installed on a Friday, and on the following Monday, all over the television I was seeing ads to…
Thornton & Grooms recently installed a new Lennox central air unit for us. They have always been responsive, on time and professional. Techs did a great job, answered all our questions and reviewed the entire project with us when they were done. Highly recommend.
Jacob Napier, and Kevin Cole and crew did a timely and professional job. Very polite and thorough!
Eric was very knowledgeable and walked us through multiple options, including rebates, etc. he showed up on time with a great attitude and was very kind to our dogs as well. Would definitely recommend him and T&G to others.
All 3 gentlemen arrived on time and worked so hard. Very happy with the service
