"Three technicians arrived and the problem was never solved. The forth tech ultimately solved the problem. He was great. The first three were pitiful."

"I made an appointment for work to be done on Friday that another contractor scheduled to arrive on Monday needed to have completed in advance. I changed the scope of project shortly after the initial estimate and was told that the plumber could do the revised work as scheduled. He arrived after the two-hour window and then said he could only provide an estimate for the changed scope, not do the work. I also think you should inform customers in advance that you charge a $99 fee for estimates. I was never notified of this fee and on first visit (for initial estimate) the plumber tried to charge me for it, but I refused and the fee was waived. On the second visit, the plumber made a point to tell me he was waiving the fee since I was so disappointed in the job not being done - as if I would have paid such a fee under these circumstances. I am a very understanding consumer, and rarely complain about bad service. Your plumbers seemed nice and the scheduling staff are very nice, but these communication lapses have negatively impacted my project and have not reflected well on your business."

"fixed the problem"

"The technicians arrived within an hour of my call to them, when nobody else in the Albany area was available. The second emergency visit was made during a heavy snow storm, very late evening, when travel was a real hazard. They fixed the problem quickly."

"Rick was thorough in his assessment and he did not try to insult my intelligence. He allowed me to ask questions without annoyance."

"Mike and Diego were well informed and explained the service provided."

"The two men that came were very courteous and nice to me. But I personally feel they did not have the expertise I needed. I got an estimate of over $2,000 to fix my furnace or I was thinking maybe I should just buy a new one and I got an estimate close to $6,000 for that. Which is too much for me to afford. My furnace was leaking water/fluid somewhere. They could not find the problem where it was coming from totally. And then they could not bring in a black line/hose to siphon the water out completely. I got a second opinion and this man totally knew what he was doing and went in and siphoned all the fluid out and said I need something as simple as a new line / hose. The line was corroded. As of now I did not get a new line yet and would like you to call me or email me back to schedule an appointment and have an experienced person come to my house and help me. I have been paying a maintenance fee yearly for your service. My name is Carol Cornell and my phone number is 518-322-0619 or email me please thank you"

"Very timely, very knowledgeable yechnician"

"One standout were the questions asked about exposure to the virus. Much appreciated."

"Dontrail was AWESOME!!! The company is lucky to have him. I don't know if I'd use you guys again because $638 seems like an awful lot for a gas valve. He fixed it in a half hour. In addition, the part was to be overnighted which Dontrail did, but they didn't offer a tech when they received the part. They simply called around noon and said we'll get to you tomorrow. Had to go 2 days with no heat and it's 20 degrees at night. Not fun for a family of 5. I don't see how $600+ makes sense for a half hour of work. I looked it up and it's about $85 for that part. Doesn't seem fair to me, and I would explore other options and probably not suggest to others to use your service."

"the woman who accompanied the technician simply tried to sell me a total replacement and monthly maintenance of my home heating system instead of discussing what the issue was. I was told the my home heater will stop working soon. And it did stop so I had a second opinion from another technician. the only thing he did was to drain water from the heater and it has been working great since! and this only cost me $99 instead of thousands of dollars!"

I've looked over the bills in the last 10 years and things that were done were listed. My bill just says all is working normal and water heater is 10 years old. I would like him to list WHAT he did while he was here. ALSO, my thermostat needs to be replaced. Don said he'd bring it over in a few days. My present thermostat sticks.

It turns out the fan motor was not working and that was causing the freeze up. I was given pricing on a whole new system when the option of replacing the motor should have been given. I don't know why the operation of the entire system was not checked in the first place. If it were, the problem would have been discovered. I should receive a refund for my service call."

Unfortunately the board suffered a catastrophic failure which took other parts of the system with it. Service Experts came back 4 times to diagnose and ultimately fix the issue. I appreciate their tenacity and being upfront in honoring the warrantee on service. We would all have preferred that it was fixed faster, but at the end of the day, the job was done right."

"Jonathan/Tech did a very good job."

"Very friendly and informative."

"Prompt, efficient service. Clint made use of a warranty I still had on my coils."

"Grant is FANTASTIC. He gets a 10 or better. Donna is lovely. Stephanie and Renee are useless. They are after hours personnel.. Stephanie is repetitive and was not successful in reaching staff while my basement flooded. What is the point of emergency service? What is the point of me paying a monthly fee for emergency service? Renee was initially better than Stephanie but was worse because she took twenty minutes to get her computer working and was also unable to reach personnel to assist. Again, same questions. When Donna contacted me after 7 am it was no longer feasible for me to have an emergency technician because I am an essential Federal Employee. So I confirmed the 6pm to 8pm appointment with Donna that I made with Renee. Renee informed me I would get a confirmation email for my appointment. Donna confirmed I would receive a confirmation email. That email has yet to arrive. I'm not waiting for it. Next, Stephanie and Renee and Donna ALL said the technician would contact me shortly before arriving. That did not happen. Please know this NEVER happens and EVERY office personnel member claims this to be true and EVERY technician explains the OPPOSITE; the office personnel are supposed to contact me shortly before the technician arrives. DA Bennett has many flaws. To review thus far, emergency technicians CAN'T be reached during NON office hours. BIG flaw. Office and technician personnel state opposite information about calls before arrival. ANNOYING flaw. NO EMAIL confirmation is also an ANNOYING flaw. Written confirmation is expected and doesn't arrive. Next, for the past two consecutive times I have had DA Bennett services at my house not only did was a phone call just prior to the technician's arrival NOT provided, but also both technicians arrived at my home 15 minutes early. Early is lovely but I was NOT home until 5 minutes BEFORE each window of arrival START time so your technicians twiddled their thumbs. This is another FLAW; poor SCHEDULING and poor DISPATCH. I'm informing DA Bennett of these flaws because I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT I MAY HAVE A HEATING EMERGENCY IN THE FUTURE (I HOPE NOT!!!) AND WHEN TECHNICIANS CAN'T BE REACHED I WILL END UP WITH FROZEN PIPES. WHY AM I PAYING FOR EMERGENCY SERVICE ONLY TO HAVE ZERO TECHNICIANS ANSWER A PHONE? IT'S MORE OF THE SAME FROM OVER A YEAR AGO WHEN MY EMAIL MESSAGES WERE NEVER ANSWERED. So, how will these flaws and problems be corrected? When will these flaws and remedies be corrected? Will I be contacted and be reassured I should stay with DA Bennett service and IF a winter emergency happens a technician WILL BE REACHED."
