HVAC reviews in San Carlos, California

They run a tight ship with excellent response times. The heat pump works great!

Great communication, great price, and great work. Armen and his team kept me in the loop the whole time. There was a minor issue with the installation, but he was sure to get it fixed right away. Definitely recommend

Armen and his crew are top notch: punctual, thorough, willing to solve unexpected problems without inflating prices, correcting mistakes, and always responsive via email, voice, or text. You cannot get a better crew here on the peninsula.

I can only offer the highest review for Techpro Builders and Armen.
Fantastic!!!

Very rare to find a contractor of his high skill, fairness, and excellent demeanor these days!

Recommend Highly!

Armen and his team are professionals. Roygbiv Construction LLC only partners with service providers who are reliable and experts in their trade, among others, as construction is a time-sensitive business. Techpro Builders is our go to guys for anything HVAC!

Professional, knowledgeable and responsive, with straightforward quotes and very competitive prices, even on complicated installations. Will handle all permitting and inspection for the job and subcontract to a licensed electrician for electrical work. Highly recommended.

Why give a 2 hr window when you don’t make it in a 2 hr window. Understand that there are unexpected issues that arise but this can be solved with a call or a notification. Also, when I called to ask what the eta of the technician, they tell me “their on the way” but after waiting another 45 min, there was no text/notification or anyone at the door. Had to call again to be told that it would be another 20 min minimum. Unfortunately poor first impressions are hard to overcome.

I have a natural gas wall heater in my home with a mind of its own. Living in a flat room home on a concrete slab, it's one of the few available heating options. Trying to tinker with and troubleshoot these things is a pain in the a** I can attest from personal experience.

Thank god for Techpro Builders. After a week or more of freezing and using my wood-burning fireplace more than I'd care to, Armen came out and spent the necessary time to evaluate and troubleshoot all aspects of the heater from the venting to the gas valve to the thermostat wiring to evaluate the problem. Came on time, dealt with the issue like a pro, and charged a fair rate. Wouldn't it be nice if every service provider experience was like that?

My heater is now functioning again as planned, and I've also got a bid from Techpro for a new mini-split system throughout the house to replace my existing heaters. I'll add to my review later assuming I move forward with that project, but for now I'm a very happy guy.

I highly recommend Techpro. I had them install a mine spit heat pump system in a piece of commercial property and they did great work. They were officiant, friendly, and aesthetically conchs when it came to concealing equipment.

Will definitely use them in the future.

Armen and his crew at Techpro were tireless in completing what turned out to be a complex job. After interview several local firms Armen’s detailed estimate (with strong rationale for what he was proposing) and competitive price led us to hire Techpro for our job (Dual zone AC with custom dampening). Armen’s crew was on time, clean and professional. When we hit a snag (no fault of Techpro) Armen himself ensured that the job was done correctly and despite being one of several jobs we always felt like we were “important”. I would highly recommend Techpro.

Beware...TPB HVAC services did not honor our arrangement. Considering the positive reviews on Google, thought they would be a good contractor for this $25k+ Carrier project. However when they informed me that the project was permitted and finished, asked owner Arman if they completed the required HERS certification as contracted and he said yes. Hired an independent HERS tester and they confirmed the system failed on this test. Notified management/owner of the fail in written email, phone and text and requested resolution, no response....

Guess in the end, we all expect our HVAC contractors to provide timely service in a honorable and professional manner. Wondering how many of their customers have systems that don't comply with state requirements and passing HERS certification. Guess only they know this. Engage with TechPro Builders at your own risk.

Finding a reliable AC company turned out to be difficult. We invited six representatives. It is upon the recommendation from a neighbor that we included TechPro among them.
We finally decided to work with TechPro because their representative:
1- ..was among the few to go in the attic to look at our furnace.
2- We did our research so we emailed him our questions as they came. He even replied on a Sunday night.
3- Based on our equipment, he recommended an AC that was cheaper than the one we were considering.
4- They came to work the day they had promised to come.
5- As much as we dreaded the experience, ours turned out to be simple.

It is based on our experience that I feel very comfortable to recommend TechPro.

Our old water heater sprung a leak. I called Techpro and Armen called right back and was able to text me a quote that was very competitive. Their installer arrived within an hour and removed the leaky water heater while another guy delivered the new one. We had hot water again that evening, and they even made sure the water heater was strapped to the wall and cleaned up the work area. Thanks guys for the excellent customer service!

Difficult to find a business that is easy to schedule, fair and up front on pricing, then exceeds expectations on quality and accuracy of work. Techpro Builders rejuvenated my 18 year old Carrier gas furnaces for a fraction of replacements. Highly recommend.

Very responsive to request for service - technician did a great job and fixed our AC in one visit. Excellent service overall. Thank you!

Updated April 2021. We finally got our work completed. Once the company was engaged, the work was done well with decent follow ups. I wish that the process had been this smooth from the very beginning.

Original review:
We paid our $1,000 deposits for installations of a new furnace and ac. The company has been ignoring our emails and calls to discuss permit documentation and installation timeframe. We are very concerned whether we could get our deposit back. I would not recommend this company.

I had a complicated project but techpro came out with a great quote and executed it. Our Eichler house does not have an attic so we had to install ducts above the roof by cutting through. Garen and his team were thorough in their work and every single item was done to perfection. From insulating the ducts to hanging the HVAC from the ceiling to save my garage spāce to high quality electrical work. He has many good members in his team who know what they are doing. He had to work with another roofing contractor but they executed that partnership nicely by coordinating well. am writing this review after 4-5 months of testing and am happy with the work and will definitely recommend Garen and Techpro team.

We had to do a big HVAC installation project that took many months of planning in order to decide the best location to put the AC unit and how to get the permit to pass the city planning department. Every step along the way Armen was very helpful with helping us with the details on the planning, he is always very responsive. The installation itself was a very difficult job, new AC line set, new high efficiency Furnace exhaust and water drain, two zone setup, new thermal stats. Armen's team did a very good job with every part of the install, the installation was clean, very professional. What I valued the most is that on many details of the installation, they communicated with me regarding all the options and proceeded with the one I liked rather than going with the one that was easiest to do, which is problematic with some contractors I encounter nowadays. So I highly recommend these guys!

Techpro is always quick to get a technician out and they are very competent, honest, and fairly priced. We have interacted with most of the staff from the office, management, and technicians and they are all very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable.

When our 19-year-old furnace failed in late November 2015, I contact three local reputable contractors for a repair or replacement. All three advised replacement of the old furnace with a new Carrier furnace, but Techpro offered by far the lowest price and could do the entire job (removal of old equipment, including thermostat, and installation of new equipment) within one week. They did so, very efficiently, and we have been fully satisfied with the system's performance ever since.

Our home is about 3000 Sqft split between two floors, which means the temperature can be drastically different between upstairs and downstairs without proper control. It can be extremely cold during the winter while overheated upstairs.

To solve our problem, Armen and the team designed and installed a thermostat controller duct dampers-based solution. We had for almost three months now - It works perfectly.

Armen took the time to evaluate my situation and presented the most cost-effective solution. He took the time to explain the whys. Unlike many others, he did not try to sell me anything that we don't need.

During the installation, his team always show up on time, keep the workspace clean, and they are very ploite and helpful.

Finally, his team went above and beyond to fix my air cleaner machine, which was outside of their original scope. His team helped me fix the issue including taking the picture, sending it to Carrier for a replacement part and install it for me without any additional cost.

Armen - I hope we won't have any heating and cooling needs, but if we do, you know who we will call!
