    I had a water heater that needed to be replaced, and the HVAC company that put it in and did all my air conditioning units went out of business. I knew about A.J. Perri, and they were able to come out immediately. We were selling our house, and it was the day of our open house, so we needed immediate action. The tech was good, and he replaced the water heater. It functions fine now. There was a minor gas leak from the fixtures that needed to be replaced or tightened up, and they came out right away to do that. A.J. Perri was responsive, and that was what I needed.

      My washing machine backed up into my laundry sink. A.J. Perri was able to send someone that day. The person who was here was not able to do what needed to be done, but they sent someone the very next day, which was great. There was something about a drain. They had to use some kind of special thing to clean it out. The issue has been fully resolved. Everyone was very nice and very polite. They were prompt. They cleaned up very nicely after themselves. It was a positive experience. I wouldn't really hesitate to call them back again.

      Our tenant called us and said that the air conditioner wasn’t working properly. It would turn off if it got super hot. The tech that was sent by A.J. Perri was very informative with what he felt was wrong, and he was very good. We had to replace the compressor but we didn't do it with A.J. Perri because they gave me a price quote, and it was quite high. I called for a second opinion, and I was able to get it fixed for not even a fraction of the price of what it would cost me to replace the whole unit naturally. So, the actual experience with A.J. Perri was good because they came out right away, and they were able to tell me what the problem was but their solution wasn’t in my best interest.

      I always have a good experience with A.J.Perri. I reached out to them because I see a lot of their trucks all over the place. And nowadays, it's hard to trust small companies when you go to Marketplace on Facebook because of scams. Every time I call them or text, they always reply within a matter of hours. It doesn't take the next day. They came out to treat my water heater boiler recently. They came, they checked, they gave me quotes, they gave me choices, options to choose, and then I went from there. Everything's perfect now. When it comes to a homeowner, not having hot water is a big thing in this country. The water is super cold. So the timing that they do service is pretty quick. It was a very good thing. I recommend it to everybody.

      They're not cheap; they're not expensive. They're right in between. I like that they work with you. They give you options. They tell you, "This can be done. This can't be done." And they explain to you. Also, the people who have come into my house are people who know exactly what they're doing, and they make you feel comfortable.

      I called A.J. Perri for the AC unit that was not working, and they fixed it. However, the first call to make the appointment was quite difficult. I wanted the technician to clean the condenser, but they were never able to book that appointment for me. When they finally came, they realized that the condenser needed to be cleaned. However, they came at 7:00 PM so it was late. They couldn't do it, and they had to come again. With A.J. Perri, you have to insist on having the appointment at the right time.

      I had a jammed Moen garbage disposal. Called A.J. Perri for the first time and I agreed to their $150 service fee to come out and assess the problem. They sent two technicians out and they assessed it was jammed and not burned out. Told me they would try to unjam it and the total cost is $250 which included the $150 service fee. $250 was high but what was I going to do. If they couldn't unjam it, the cost to replace the garbage disposal with their unit would be $2,100. If I provided the garbage disposal unit, the labor cost would be $1,017. A good garbage disposal costs about $125 - $175 retail. The two technicians who were very nice unjammed my disposal in about 10 minutes.

      I was literally blown away by their cost to replace my garbage disposal. Had they not been able to unjam my disposal, I would have paid the $250 and walked away. Their charges to replace my disposal were excessive and literally trying to gouge me. More importantly they lost me as a repeat customer. This was my first time experience with A.J. Perri and I will never call them again when I have future plumbing problem.

We contacted them once when we needed a drip repaired from the pipe, and we contacted them when they sent a mailing for an annual checkup of your heating system, at which time they detected some deficiencies that would require us to replace the air conditioning system, which we did.

      I was so happy to get an appt the same day with AjPerri, My AC unit on the outside just stopped working randomly, I could hear the inside turn on but not the outside part. So the tech got here took a look and said the first step was to replace the capacitor then we will see. So he replaced that, the fan turned on but a couple of seconds later it stopped again for a few second then would start again, then turn off. So he looked at a few other things, called a friend/co-worker not sure which and they came to the conclusion the fan and condenser were all shot. So he gave me a quote for the parts and labor at almost 8k and said I can try to call the manufacturer and see if they will do anything under warranty since the unit is only 4 years old but in the end it may be better to buy a new one.

      I called the manufacturer, they were great, said I was covered for parts and would only need to pay for labor and the Licensed HVAC company would have to submit the warranty request for the parts. So I happily called Ajperri and told them exactly that, they seemed to have no idea what I was talking about and said someone from parts will call me back.

      I call almost every other day, explain the situation to a new person and they tell me someone will call me back. Finally Friday a whole week later, the tech calls me again and says, "It looks like you want to order the parts and for the cost of it you should just look at a new system." I told him, "No I am only paying for labor, the parts are covered under the manufacturer warranty, but your company has to submit the warranty request through them." He says he will talk to his manager and get back to me this afternoon, I don't hear anything, so Monday I call back, explain the situation again to a new person, they say they will have someone call me. Someone from parts calls me and says ok you want to order the parts, I say yes but I will not be paying for them it will go through the manufacturer warranty. She says she will have my tech call me.

      So finally the tech calls me back, he give me a number over the phone that is will be about $3500 in labor for the parts to be installed, and another $1200 for the coolant replacement. I was baffled. So the labor will be 700-1K+ an hour depending on how long this takes? Which research said a good tech can get it done in 3-5 hours.

      At that point I could hear he was about to try to upsell me a new unit. I stopped him there and said I will call someone else thank you. So the new company comes looks at the capacitor and says, "Huh well here is your problem, this is wired incorrectly." He switched the wires and bam system works. 5 MIN, I have gone through a week and a half now of 90-100 degree heat with only portable AC which keep my house around 78 degrees because this company was trying to sell me a new unit. I am disgusted and out over 1k with the first AJPerri fee then the portable AC's units which cost 800$ and a second company fee (which I gladly paid).

      The recent experience with A.J. Perri was good. Scheduling the service was very prompt and customer service was very nice and easy to talk to. The plumber who came out for the sink in my bathroom that was leaking underneath was excellent. He repaired the leak and replaced the drain stopper with a different one. He was very cooperative, cordial, and professional.

      Three years ago, I had a stoppage in my pipes from the bathroom. The outlet was in the washroom. They told me they had a special when they came out. But once the guy took off the lid of the drain pipe, he said he had to charge me more because the drain was full of water. I didn't want water all over my washroom so I paid them that. They used a camera to look in the system. Then the plumber told me that I needed to have the floor ripped up and the piping replaced, and that would be about $15,000, $20,000. He was giving me a dialog that I felt very uncomfortable with. I asked why and he said I got a severe blockage in my pipe that leads out to the street. I felt that was strange, so I did not have it done. But I called another service, and they also had a camera. They looked, and I looked with their camera but I didn't see any obstructions. They blew it out, and it's been working perfectly ever since.

      We hired them to come and service a 3-year-old AC system for the season. One week later our AC was not working - they came back said the drain was clogged and charged us $700 to fix it. Not sure how the drain was clogged when you just serviced it a week before. Now one week later AC is not working again, hottest day of the year, and no one can come for hours. They either are not servicing it when they come or they are not diagnosing the real problem, despite us paying them a service fee and $700 to repair a clogged drain one week after they serviced it. I am beyond frustrated and would never recommend using their service as they seem incompetent and more interested in gouging their clients.

      I recently had my yearly A/C maintenance on my system. The technician completed all the system checks and informed that all was in working order. He then recommended 2 add on services, cleaning of blower fan blades at $735 and an air scrubber at $1900. He showed me an internal picture of the fans blades showing a build up of grime and possible mold growth on the blades. I denied the services because of the ridiculous prices. The following day I inspected the blades myself, took the same pictures that didn't show any mold or significant grime.

      I requested to have my drain snaked out from my basement to the street. I saw that AJ Perri had a special for $79. I called to inquire and was very skeptical, especially after reading some of the reviews about overcharging, etc. I was absolutely satisfied - they kept me posted when the technician would arrive. George, the technician, was professional, took the time to assess the problem, and even though he felt that I may not have needed a drain to be snaked out to the street, he did so anyway. I was not overcharged, there was no heavy sales, and it was exactly what I had hoped for. Very satisfied..

      This is day 12 without heat due to an error made by A.J. Perri a year ago on a new $25,000 system. Upon reflection, the sales department was SUPER responsive 2 years ago when I purchased a new Air Conditioning system ($17k) and a year ago when we bought a new furnace. Installation was smooth and friendly. But now that there's a problem, I can't get a hold of anyone with good information or influence. Day 4 -The service tech who finally looked at the system determined that upon installation A.J. Perri failed to attach a flue sensor. So the system ran for over a year without this attached. The dangling metal sensor then shorted out the system. Day 6 - "Your parts will be in today! Once they're here we'll get you scheduled." *crickets* Day 8 - Thanksgiving. At least the over kept us warm.

      Day 10 - Aafter many failed customer service calls) the Customer Service QA manager called me to see why I was such a hot head. She had no info on my issue because all of the correspondence was put on the wrong address/account. She finally understood the severity of the issue and asked if she could look into it and quickly call me back. The was two days ago. *crickets again* Day 12 - headed into a week of overnight temps in the teens. Still no updates. The parts department gets in at 10:30am. LOLOLOLOL.

      ***SUMMARY*** This issue was escalated to management 10 days ago and I haven't heard from anyone accountable. Zero sense of urgency. It feels like they're just waiting for parts to arrive from Amazon or something rather than doing what the first tech suggested - someone drive to the supply house.
