FAQs
What does “transparent pricing” mean for your heat repair services in Oneida?
Transparent pricing means you know the exact cost of the repair before any work begins. After inspecting your heating system, our technician presents a written, line-item quote that lists parts, labor, taxes, and any optional upgrades. There are no hidden fees, trip charges, or surprise after-hours surcharges. If additional issues are discovered while we’re working, we stop, show you the problem, and get your approval on the revised price before proceeding.
How do you determine the total cost of a heat repair visit?
The final price is based on three components: (1) a flat diagnostic fee that covers the trip to your Oneida home and a full system evaluation; (2) the cost of any replacement parts, which we purchase at wholesale and pass on with no markup; and (3) a standardized labor rate taken from our published price book, so every customer pays the same amount for the same task. All costs are disclosed in writing, and we never start work until you sign off on the quote.
Do you provide free estimates or second opinions?
Yes. If another company has already diagnosed your furnace, boiler, or heat pump and you’d like a second opinion, we’ll come out at no charge, confirm (or dispute) the diagnosis, and give you a written estimate using our transparent pricing structure. If you’re calling us first, the initial diagnostic fee is waived when you choose us to perform the repair.
Are your technicians licensed, insured, and familiar with local Oneida heating systems?
Absolutely. Every technician holds New York State HVAC licensing, maintains EPA refrigerant certification, undergoes background checks, and carries full liability and workers’ compensation insurance. Because we’re headquartered right here in Oneida County, our team regularly services the furnaces, boilers, and heat pumps common to Central New York’s cold climate, so we know the quirks of local fuel types, hard-water impacts, and utility rebate requirements.
Which heating brands and system types can you repair?
We service all major residential and light-commercial brands, including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Bryant, York, Goodman, American Standard, and Bosch. Our technicians are trained to repair gas furnaces, oil furnaces, electric furnaces, high-efficiency condensing boilers, steam boilers, dual-fuel hybrid systems, ductless mini-split heat pumps, and geothermal units. If parts are obsolete, we’ll provide options for aftermarket replacements or system upgrades along with transparent pricing for each choice.
Do you offer emergency heat repair and how fast can you arrive?
Yes—our emergency line is staffed 24/7, 365 days a year. Calls received before 10 p.m. in the Oneida area typically see a technician at the door within two hours. After 10 p.m., we still respond, but arrival may extend to three to four hours depending on weather and road conditions. Emergency service carries the same transparent pricing policy; nights, weekends, and holidays never incur extra fees, so you pay the identical flat rates listed in our daytime price book.
