Super nice. Contacted Heath Electric on a Friday. They were given my service through my Home Warranty company. I was told I would be the first ones Monday morning. Al called me and said they were on their way. I live in Virginia Beach and they are on the Eastern Shore. They figured out my circuit breaker to my hot water heater was bad and replaced it. They were professional and friendly. Recommend them whole heartedly.

Klaus was very helpful and knowledgeable and really helped us out when our unit failed. We filed a claim through American Home Shield and the process was very easy with Klaus.

Klaus worked overtime to solve a problem that numerous other companies could not fix. He troubleshooted until he found two issues and ordered new parts that day. Thank you for being willing to go the extra mile to get our hot water running again!

I recently used Heath Electric Co. via my contract with American Home Shield. They were professional in the installation and took the time to explain what to expect. In addition, they also took the initiative in communicating with AHS several times so I could have hot water. No doubt- I would use this company again and also recommend them!

I think people who are leaving bad reviews are the ones who got messed up through the home warranty scheduling process. Nothing to to with the service provider.

My experience with this company has been amazing. Took me some time to get someone out (not Heath Electrical fault). Once the person was out here, he knew exactly what was going on and took the time to explain what he was doing and why.

Honestly, I can't recommend them enough. They are super busy because of how good and honest they are.

Would recommend to family and friend.

These guys are the worst! They told me it would be 2-4 weeks for parts. I thought that was fairly reasonable, as it was the middle of the summer. 2-4 weeks came and went and finally months. When trying to call this company, they simply ignore the call or let it go straight to voicemail. A simple update is all I am looking for. This guy’s business model of ignoring their customers, but finding the time to comment on the constant poor reviews is amusing. I have been in contact with home warranty company, and they have assured me they will be removing them from the authorized vendor list. This is the first review I have ever done on a company and felt it was necessary. We will keep them in our prayers, as well as the unhappy customers they have left behind, since this seems to be the only response this company gives to their poor service.

Klaus and his team did a wonderful job for us in replacing our two zone HVAC system. Everyone on his team was very nice and professional, and the quality of their work is excellent. A lot of the work was very difficult due to the tight space under the house. Everything was cleaned up well afterwards. He explained the work with us ahead of time and always gave us options. This is the third job that he did for us - the last two were a hot water heater replacement and electrical meter box replacement. His team was dependable - on time and always completed the work they said they would. Would definitely use again and recommend to others!

LOOK AT THE OTHER 1 STAR REVIEWS . DO NOT TAKE THEIR BUSINESS!!! Klause had an appointment to arrive at my property on a Friday . I had tried to reach out by phone call on multiple occasions that day and even left a voicemail informing him to contact me before arriving onto the property. The property has tenants that must be made aware out of courtesy before anyone showing up and also this makes the technician to perform maintenance efficient . His only response to these calls and voicemails was a text saying he’s driving and can’t talk. I texted him more than once afterwards to tell him to give me a call before showing up . Klause never showed up or even called or texted me the homeowner with a rescheduled appointment. It’s not until early Saturday morning he calls me with a very disrespectful tone , throwing a fit demanding I give him access codes for a lock box to enter the property because “ I’ve done this for 40 years I’m a big boy” while going on about how early it is and threatened to cancel because he was 15 minutes away . I had to try to deescalate this “big boy” and try to tell this guy over and over again he does not need any code for the property because tenants are on the sight he must wait for me to contact them before arriving . He expected someone to jump when he says jump and his ego was bruised when he realized he wasn’t calling the shots and since he didn’t get his way he hung up and texted me that he cancelled. UNPROFESSIONAL!!! His only defense for the other 1 star reviews is he’s been doing this for 40 years, are you kidding me lol .Nobody cares how long you’ve been in business it’s quality not quantity!!! He doesn’t admit his lack of communication skills . He makes it out to be the customers fault for his poor planning methods . If you value your time and home DO NOT TAKE HIS BUSINESS!!!!

Came out to Virginia to visit my PREGNANT sister and her husband. A week prior she had called this company recommended from her warranty company. ONE WEEK later they called back. So Friday I’m here waiting for them to come fix the heater, Michael was very nice and called, let me know when they would be here. Finally, Klaus or whatever his name is started going around the house, and asked if he could go in garage, he then states he’s looking for a ladder, he asked if I could go ask a neighbor for one and I said absolutely not, and asked if he should have a ladder himself, and then complained about us not having one. Then once he was leaving he tried charging us an extra 90$ on top of the 100$ deductible. For access since we didn’t have a ladder....
We laughed and said absolutely not. So he was on hold with the warranty company for bout 20 minutes then started getting rude with him because he didn’t know what he was saying. (Mind you one of the times he walked into the house he left the door wide open when there is three dogs here that could have ran out).
He left without giving us a receipt and I just called to get one and the guy hung up on me so DO NOT USE THESE DUDES.

Our geothermal system stopped working on 7/17/19 late in the evening, right at the beginning of a heat wave! We called our Home Warranty company (HMS), who put us in contact with Mr. Heath. While he wasn't able to fit us in for a same day appointment he was able to accommodate us first thing the following morning. He's very knowledgeable about geothermal systems and was able to quickly diagnose and fix the issue. Our particular issue was not covered by our Home Warranty, which he was transparent about; however, his rates were very reasonable. Would definitely recommend.

This company was scheduled through my home warranty company, to service my heatpump today. I called 30 min prior to their ETA...for the man to tell me they had 2 elderly hot water heater emergencies...but they'd not bothered to let us know anything or to try and reschedule.... My husband took the day off for this service call...they took his number and claimed they'd call if they could get to us today or maybe tomorrow after 1 or manybe not till Saturday....BAD BAD BAD business...don't tell me you're going to do something and then NOT do it.....and guess what....they never called !
I wouldn't recommend them for squat!

Called and had an appointment on a Thursday . Waited all day no call no show. Called on Friday, apologized rescheduled for Tuesday. Called Monday to confirm. Again they apologized for error and promised to be here on Tuesday and they would call 1st. Guess what no call no show. Worst customer service ever. DO NOT RECOMMEND. I would have given4 0 stars but it didnt register.

When choosing a roofing company, consider their experience, customer reviews, warranty offerings, and quality of materials.

Warning signs that your roofing contractor might be ripping you off include vague contracts, pressure to pay large upfront deposits, lack of proper documentation, and unexplained price increases. Always ask for itemized estimates and written guarantees, and avoid contractors who avoid answering your questions directly.
