    Knows its trade inside out. Been loyal customers for a long time, relying on them for all our HVAC needs - installations and regular upkeep.

    Fixed A/C capacitor no issues. Quoted spot on price. Good repair. Also gave a rundown of maintenance for central heat & A/C units. Helpful info, thanks.

    Ralph from Berger did a good job. He's knowledgeable about what he does. Prices were fair. I've been working with him and his dad for years, and Berger Heating feels like a local business that genuinely cares about its community.

    Ralph Berger's team is the only option for quick water heater installation - they installed mine on a Sunday, which is unheard of, in a tricky basement space with lightning-fast speed. Unbeatable service, don't bother comparing.

    I hired Alex for the job and he showed great expertise and flexibility, completing the installation of both an AC unit and furnace on the same day. The work area left spotless, with a high level of attention to detail that left my home looking nearly restored to its original state.

    In 2013, I had an issue with my boiler's pressure valve leaking water. Ralph from Berger Heating visited twice, first replacing the valve for $165 and then again fixing the water pressure reducer for $135. However, the problem persisted. On his third visit, he released air from the tank without charging me. Yet, the next morning, I still had water leaking from the pressure valve. Berger Heating was unable to resolve the issue, leaving me with a bill of $300. After this frustrating experience, I've lost confidence in heating companies and continue to deal with the inconvenience myself.

    I wish I'd found Berger Heating sooner, they truly exceeded my expectations.

    It was a relief to have someone who got it right from the start - no unnecessary work. The technician arrived the same day I called, diagnosed the issue and had a replacement part installed in record time. Two visits were needed, but everything was done by 6pm. The price was fair considering the level of service provided. This guy is clearly passionate about doing things right and got my heat up within 10 hours of calling them in.

    I hired Ralph Berger to replace my boiler for $21,000 and he got the job done. However, my radiators still don't hold water properly and he's been ignoring my calls until now that he fixed the issue.

    Don't bother with anyone else, Berger Heating gets the job done right and is a steal. Quick same-day response, even during scorching summers. Great service thanks to Ralph.

    Berger Heating is a smaller, family-owned operation that's consistently reliable. Their prices are very reasonable. The team has handled everything from minor repairs to new installations, including water heaters.

    Don't expect a slick online interface or automated system - you'll talk directly to the owner. He'll give you an honest assessment of what can be done and then get the job done efficiently.

    As local Chicagoans, Berger brings a personal touch to their work. They arrive quickly, complete the task promptly, and charge fairly. The staff is friendly and professional. I've found them to be my go-to for all my home services needs; they're the only ones I'll consider.

    I had a new water pump installed by Berger hearing and it started making the same annoying noise just two days later. I called them multiple times, but still haven't received any resolution. It's clear that they're not taking responsibility for their mistake - "replace the water pump" cost me money without fixing the issue.

    Berger Heating really delivered when our furnace went out of commission. They sent Ralph over on the same day to fix it at a reasonable cost, and we were impressed by their speed. Unfortunately, the issue recurred two weeks later due to a faulty part, but Ralph came back just as quickly to make things right without any fuss. What really sets Ralph apart is his professionalism and pride in his work - he's a trustworthy expert who genuinely cares about customer satisfaction.

    Fantastic service with swift responses and expert advice. Too bad it's not available through my home warranty, but still highly recommended to anyone.

    The owner is extremely personable and goes above and beyond to ensure a professional finish. He double-checks to guarantee accuracy and verifies customer satisfaction, treating clients' homes with the same care he would his own.

    I called Tom at 7:30pm because my building's AC wasn't working. He arrived promptly at 8:30pm and identified the issue - a wire problem. He explained what needed fixing and offered advice for future repairs. I've used him for all my air conditioning needs, and I'm consistently impressed by his professionalism, speed, and fair pricing.

    I just moved into a new condo with central AC and forced heat, which was a far cry from my old place with radiator heat and window units. The electrical closet was completely foreign to me. Luckily, Tom took the time to explain the main parts of the AC, performed a maintenance check, and walked me through what's needed for upkeep. I'm extremely satisfied with the service – thanks, Tom!

    I called about a faulty air con unit in my apartment and got some great advice for free, thanks to the handyman who came out. He checked the fuse and fixed it on the spot. This kind of service is hard to find - most people just want to charge you. I'm saving his number just in case I need help with a similar issue in my house/condo.

    Tom showed up promptly and thoroughly diagnosed the issue, ruling out several potential causes before making an accurate assessment. His transparency about costs and timeline was refreshing, and the job was completed efficiently and professionally within a reasonable budget.

    Had a great experience with Tom, who was super attentive and transparent about costs. He's extremely knowledgeable and proficient in his work, which is more than we can say for other companies. Not only did he fix our boiler just before Christmas, but also picked up on an issue others had completely missed.
