    Original est was cost of burner plus up to 8 hours for 1 plumber and 1 helper. A 1 day job turned into over a week. They did take over 500.00 off the bill. Plumber had to go back to shop several times for more parts despite having a company work truck on site. Nice people just not what I expected.

    Asked for service to snake my septic line. They sent out 2 guys on a Friday. They got the snake stuck in the line. Said, "We'll be back Monday". OK then, all weekend with no water,They show back up and can't get it unstuck, they sounded it and said it was stuck on something about 10 feet from the septic tank. Real good. I go rent a small excavator and dig up my septic tank. Well, Curly and Moe had jammed the snake through the septic tank and wrapped the snake around the septic baffle about 14 times. They cost me almost $3000 without their bill. Here's the kicker, they still had the nerve to send me a $1400 bill. I called them up, apparently Curly and Moe never told the office what they did. The office was kind enough to still try and bill me $950. I still told them there was no way I was going to pay them for their disservice. I wouldn't call these people for a plunger. Go see Lloyd's Services and rent your own snake and take care of your plumbing yourself before calling this business. FYI, this just popped up, this was over 2 years ago. Maybe policy's have changed.

    I asked them to take a look at my boiler that was making noise. They came by the house and replaced a pump that didn't need to be fixed. and said everything was fine. it kept making noise. they came by twice more and again said it was fine. I didn't sleep over a month from the noise. I paid $800 which included 4.5 hours of labor. when I personally figured out what was wrong they said they would fix it. I then waited 2 weeks for them to show up only to get a text message from the tech saying he didn't feel comfortable to work on it. this was because I was obviously frustrated that nothing had been fixed over these months! I never asked for a refund and they refused to help him. They all seem nice and professional but the fact that I have lived here my entire life and they refuse to help me simply because they know they are at fault and wont stand behind their work. Sadly they are about the only help you are going to get in Homer. So i guess make sure to not try to question their pricing or lack of integrity. who knows how ill get any help now.

    Furnace fault codes popped up the morning before we were leaving on a trip. Only partial heat! Hometown Oil came by later that afternoon - the day after Christmas - and helped confirm furnace codes and provided the surety that it was working well. Great service. Knowledgable. Thanks!

    My main house heater died three days ago. I called Hometown Heating, and even though they were extremely busy, they made time to come out and assess the issue for me. They replaced both of my inoperable Toyo heaters quickly and efficiently today. I am very pleased with their service and their amazing employees.

    Working with this company was easy. They came when they said they would, they completed the job and gave a detailed bill. Rick explained what was beeing done and how often service should be done. Very nice to work with knowledgeable people.

    Rick did a great job repairing our oil furnace motor! It was very concerning having a broken oil furnace in the winter. Rick made a temporary repair to keep the house temperatures up until parts came in. Hometown Heating provided exceptional service and I highly recommend them.

    The personnel at Hometown Heating are prompt and efficient. In today’s world it’s increasingly rare that a business can respond quickly—but the Hometown Heros have repeatedly responded days and weeks before their competitors could provide service.

    Rick has been a great technician for us and our heating system. He has shown up several times when we did not have heat and got us warm again. He has also maintained our boiler, which provides domestic warmth and hot water, for many years. I highly recommend Home Town Heating.

    Thank you to Rick and his team for excellent communication, great work, and details about what it took to fix my heater situation.
    I hope I don’t need them again anytime soon but it’s good to know who I can call for help with my Rinnai

    We have been customers for 14 years and always pleased with Hometown. Rick and his staff are professional, responsive and reliable.
    On several occasions catching recalls and updates of which we were unaware. Saved us some major headaches. Thanks for being there.

    Hometown Heating was my hero yesterday! My boiler went down and my wife was coming home later that day from a weekend away. I was hoping that she wouldn't have to endure not having heat and got water. The boiler was repaired and tuned up before she got home. Happy wife = happy life! I highly recommend Hometown Heating.

    I have known Rick for several years and he has always come through for me, no matter how big or small the job to be done. With costs, he also has taken the time to explain options to fit into my client's budget.
