How do I Choose the Right AC Repair Company in Houston?

April 03, 2015

Facing an AC repair can be one of the most aggravating things to encounter as a homeowner. Not only does it mean you have a broken air conditioner and must go without a comfortable home for a period of time, but you have to find time to get it fixed. All Houston AC repair companies aren’t the same either, so be sure to ask the right questions the next time you need an AC repair.

Do You Have Local References?

Heating and air conditioning equipment is an important investment and is crucial to maintaining a comfortable home. That’s why it’s so important to hear from local Houston consumers about their AC repair experiences. Those same people have been where you are and chose Church Services for a reason. While it can feel a little weird talking with someone you don’t know about AC repair, they can provide you with an true, unbiased opinion of the services they had completed.

Can You Provide a Detailed, Written Estimate?

It’s one thing to talk about AC repair costs on the phone, and quite another having a comprehensive outline of what is to be completed and the cost associated with the work and parts included. Not only does it protect you as the consumer, but it also makes certain that the AC contractor is doing everything they’re supposed to. Having something to keep both parties in agreeance can be great, especially if something unexpected comes up on the day of your AC repair.

Are You Licensed, Bonded, and Insured?

When Church Services receives calls from possible customers asking these types of questions, we’re ecstatic that our customers are doing such an in-depth background check. Proving that we’re licensed (permitted to perform the work in Houston), bonded (financially backed by a bonding company in the event of a claim being filed), and insured (to prevent you from being held liable should a worker be hurt) is what separates the true pros from the more shady air conditioning companies out there. A great AC repair company is more than willing to show proof of all of these so that everyone can be on the same page.

Of course, these aren’t the only questions that need to be asked when it comes time for AC repair, but at Church Services, we feel confident in using these as a starting place. So next time you’re in need of AC repair and need a reliable, trustworthy air conditioner service company in Houston, give us a call at 713-396-3760 or set up an appointment with our online scheduler.
