Consumer Comments for Advanced Building Service

Consumer from WASHINGTON, DC

The person who came out for ABS A/C services was very good and was definitely very helpful with our problems. Did way beyond as our unit had so much dirt/grime buildup. Sadly, the billing for his visit was so poor and I regret not paying closer attention to the time he was here. It has been several weeks and though my wife's credit card was billed a large sum, I have not been able to determined how or why billed so much. Then there is the 2nd visit issue where I understood or misunderstood would involve a creaning of a motor yet their notice says replacement of motor, cleaning and replacement of a drain part with billing of 6 hours more additional labor for 2nd billing of about $2000. I was shocked and unprepared for this news. am trying to have the tech who first did the service explain what happened as this combination will result in over $3000 total. I am not sure the "front office" is upselling or increasing the repair work needed.

This company recently came to our house to check our system so everything will work properly when the weather gets warm. The company informed us about a time change and when the technician came, he checked our whole system and got it ready for the season. He was pleasant and qualified and we will engage this company again.

The folks at Advanced Building Services replaced the gas boiler in our southeast D.C. home. They provided good service at a fair price.

Where to Find Good HVAC Help

To make sure your heating and air-conditioning systems work when needed, they must be properly installed and maintained. We’ve rated area heating and air-conditioning services for quality and price.

What to Do If You Need HVAC Repairs

If you need repairs to heating or air-conditioning equipment, our ratings of local businesses will help you find a good company to perform them.

Choosing New HVAC Equipment and Getting It Installed Properly

How well a new HVAC system performs, and how much it costs, depends heavily on its design and the quality of installation. It’s important to make the right decisions—and there are many to make. You also must make sure to get a fair contract.

HVAC Equipment Features to Consider

If you are installing new equipment, in addition to making choices about energy efficiency, you will need to decide whether to pay extra for various features. Here is a summary of the types of add-ons.

Maintaining Your HVAC Equipment

The most important maintenance task for HVAC systems is something you can do yourself—replacing the air filter. Check your filter monthly. When a filter has a matting of dirt—i.e., it’s difficult to see through when you hold it up to a light—it’s time to replace it.

HVAC Maintenance Contracts Are Usually Bad Buys

Rather than paying for individual maintenance visits and repair jobs, you might consider getting a service contract for air-conditioning and/or heating equipment. Many companies try to persuade customers to enter into such contracts.
