Honest and professional. The plumber (Ren B) took the time to properly troubleshoot the issue and figure out what was going on. In the end, no services were performed because he honestly explained that a fix wouldn't actually solve the underlying problem right now. I really appreciated the transparency and zero sales pressure.

I recently had United HVAC install a new ducted heat pump system in my home, and the entire experience was very good. From the beginning their communication was very clear, so I always knew what to expect next. They handled all the complicated permit paperwork, scheduled the inspection, and guided me through the eligible rebate programs. The technicians were highly professional, arriving on time for every single appointment. While they originally estimated it would be a 2-day project, they worked efficiently and wrapped up half a day early. As someone who isn't familiar with heat pump systems, I really appreciated how patiently the technician answered all of my questions and took the time to walk me through the system's operation. Their work is very neat. They kept the floor clean, and arranged all the new pipes and wires beautifully. I highly recommend United HVAC!

United HVAC & Plumbing’s technicians were professional and good communicators. They came when scheduled and diagnosed our plumbing issues quickly and thoroughly. The team worked quietly, quickly, and cleanly to replace a long kitchen drain and a leaking toilet. Both repairs are working well and are improvements in the previous conditions. (We have an old house and it has seen many fixes over the years.) I would definitely hire United HVAC and Plumbing again for any needed repairs!
