Reviews of local pros in Colchester, Vermont

Very friendly service desk, excellent service. Needed to fix the bathtub tap, your employee "Ken" was very knowledgeable, with a reasonable charge. I will certainly use Laplante's company again in the future. I highly recommend their service.

Great firm. We would certainly hire them again. We didn't call it an emergency but after I explained what we needed they decided that we really needed help.

Zero stars. I called twice within 24 hours and I was assured both times that the technician would get back to me soon. I still have not heard from that person. Call Roto-Rooter. They came right away and worked quickly to thaw my pipes.

Laplante's P&H did a super jobs installing a new boiler for us. No concerns about a failing boiler in the middle of the winter got it done in 1 day. superb follow-up service if we need it, we've used them in the past, professional, polite, definitely a go to for future needs.

I have needed 3 emergency repairs over the last year and each time the crew at Laplante’s have been incredibly responsive and helpful. Greg and Owen are efficient, knowledgeable and did excellent work. I highly recommend Laplante’s and will continue to hire them in the future.

The guy ray very mean unprofessional. Also drove like a crazy guy through our neighborhood

Great, clean work and friendly crew. Thanks for fixing our issue quickly!

Ryan came in, fixed the issues at our home quickly and the final cost came in under the estimate he gave us. I would use again, in fact - I'm calling again to schedule some more work!

Efficient, kind and knowledgeable. He did a great job installing our EV charger, highly recommended!

This team of electricians are amazing. They’ve helped our company for several years. They know all the ins and outs of all the regulations for rental properties. I could not be happier with their performance on our Apartments.

I had a circuit panel overheating in my home... Jay got an electrician right over, to deal with it. Oliver knew exactly what to do and was quick about it. Excellent service.

Good experience. I will be using them again

We worked with Jay, Linda, and John at Hammond Electric, and they were very good to us. They managed to squeeze in a small rush job for us on a tight schedule and hustled to make sure we had everything we needed on time. From my experience, this is the kind of small business you want to work with.

I called Hammond Electric after another Electrician we were using kept saying he would show up and never did. The owner Jay and his secretary Linda did a wonderful job fitting us right in. We didn’t want to go the weekend without our generator working, so they moved their schedule around and had Cory show up ASAP and troubleshoot our problem and get us up and running.

We told Jay we had more work and he always communicated with us as to what we needed done and when he could fit us in. It’s such a relief finding a contractor who actually does what he says he will do and his guys always show up. I feel that he goes the extra mile and we appreciate that so much. Cory and Matt are very professional when they are here and always get the job done and make it look good as well!
We are very happy with our experience with Jay and his crew at Hammond Electric and will definitely use them again.

AC down at elderly parents during the stretch where it was in the 90's and humid. Father called and they said it'd be 3 months. I called twice (because that's obviously not going to work) and they assured me I'd be hearing from someone to diagnose the issue. 2 weeks later I finally got a call back. Unacceptable!

I would give them a zero if I could. Never have been treated so poorly as I was when I wanted to have my heat pump cleaned. Someone came out and cleaned for $250. Then they wanted to charge me $500 for a bib cleaning! I was told the heat pump cleaning was going to be less than $200. When I called and talked with the service manager I didn’t feel like they cared one way or another if they kept me as a customer. After working with the public for thirty years I would definitely handled this differently. But that’s Ok I went to another local business who was happy to have me as a customer and charged me wayyyy less than $500 for a bib cleaning. They did me a favor! You know when you spend a few thousand to have a heat pump put in you like to build a relationship with them to continue to purchase and get there services. All and All they did me a favor. I like good customer service and I didn’t feel I received it.

We had Chuck’s install 2 heat pumps in our home in South Burlington in 2015. We also hired them for the annual contract for preventative maintenance. We started spending our winters down in Florida - after 10 years of hiring Chuck’s for our Annual Contract for heat pumps and furnace, we came up from the south in May 2024 to find the heat pumps not working. Chuck’s suggested that they were too busy and we should hire someone else to take care of that and we did. We had the same problem in May 2025 and the response from Chuck’s was that since we had someone else work on our system they would drop us us as customers. After 20 years and spending close to $50k on a local business they decided to drop us as customers. All the great employees that I worked with, at Chuck's, have all left and apparently the new service manager has been calling the shots and dropping customers. I got our system changed by another local contractor on time and budget. Shame on Chuck’s for dropping customers who supported them for close to 10 years. No wonder they are losing customers left and right and I will be sad to see this local business fold down due to some eccentric employees.

Kind of late in summer season to have our AC inspected under our annual service contract but do want to note we appreciated the inspection and service to assure us everything working fine. Particularly want to mention technician Bryce who did a great servicing HVAC system. He was professional, courteous and thorough inspecting and cleaning system and explained how everything was working. I’d recommend Chuck’ s. Hopefully, we won’t have to wait til spring for heating system service and Chuck’s will schedule that before winter.

Chuck's Heating is absolutely fabulous to work with. I had a custom job where I was replacing my kitchen crown molding with custom metal trims, they can out and measured and then when we needed to make slight adjustments afterwards Gary and Joann were totally accommodating. They take real pride in their work. Thank you!

Terrible customer service! Had been a customer for 14 years. Then I had to change my email address. Well they didn't get it right which may be understandable. They like to think they are on the leading edge of technology via communicating through email. But it doesn't work.... Anyway, I tried to hold them to task and getting the email corrected and for over 9 months nothing happened. When I questioned why, Rob told me he would get it straight. Well he didn't and in fact went the other way and told his boss, I'm a terrible person and Chuck's shouldn't keep me as a customer. When I called again after Rob failed to deliver, I spoke with a person named Dave (later found out he is the "boss"). Dave didn't identify himself to me at all and called me "abusive" and stated they didn't need my business - already had too much business! In fact Dave didn't even let me address the issue at all and then hung up the phone. Mind you, I never called anyone at Chuck's a name, never raised my voice and never swore at anyone. In my 40 years of customer service, the first thing I did was to determine what the issue was and then determine how we might resolve the issue - called investigate and resolve. Not the procedure for Dave and Chuck's. Nope, just tell the customer they're done and to go away. Would not recommend them for any work!.

A crew from Chuck’s was here the last five days installing a 2 outdoor unit, 6 indoor unit ductless heat pump system in our home in Williston. Not only was the crew punctual, respectful and professional, they also went the extra mile to work with me to make sure the slimducts outside looked exactly how we had hoped. I work from home so was here for the entire install, but never once felt the need to check up on this crew. I can’t recommend this company highly enough if you want a great Mitsubishi mini split heat pump system installed.
