Hired on Thumbtack
Best price on the market! Great workmanship, the AC looks and runs great. He even worked with me on the AC unit being moved off the patio, so it didn't impede the patio set. He is down to earth and made me feel like a valued customer. He was very punctual on both appointment times even while traveling over 30 minutes. I highly recommend his company.

Chad was great! He answered all my questions openly and honestly, the price was very reasonable, and the install of my new heat pump went smoothly. His team worked efficiently on the new install/old heat pump removal and they also moved some vents around for me. He even came back after the install to answer some additional questions/address concerns I had. Chad and team were a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend!

Chad, the owner of Sterling Heating and Cooling, provided me a consultation on the HVAC system of a home I purchased. He was extremely knowledgeable, and provided a comprehensive quote for several options for a system upgrade. I look forward to working with him again soon!
