Very prompt ,professional and very honest in the repairHighly recommend

I took advantage of a sale at *** *** for a pre-summer sale for air conditioning service for $*** *** contracted with Chas Roberts, which I accepted because my air conditioner is a Chas Robert unit originally installed with the houseThe technician came on 2/16/and 'serviced' the unitNothing was found to be wrong and the unit was full of freonThe technician recommended changing my air intake filters (which I did) and tried to sell me an expensive thermostat which I declinedThe AC was not used until two weeks laterOn 4/2/I turned the AC unit on and it would not come onAir would blow, but the AC unit itself would not come onI called Chaz Roberts back and they sent the same technician back to my houseHe inspected the AC unit and informed me there was no freon in the unitI asked him what happened since the unit was fine when he left and we had not used it sinceHe told me they could break at any timeHe then asked me to sign a work authoriza

ExcellentOur A/C broke the day before a record breaking heat day due to be I called Chad Roberts and they had a tech named John Feagen come out very early the next morning He came to our houseFound the problem in mere seconds and the air was on immediatelyHe is so knowledgeable, to the point and advised us on things to do to prevent any other issuesI asked him if we could set up a yearly check on our system to make sure bad things don't happen again and he set us up and told us how it would save us moneyIf you want things done right the first time, call and ask for himVery straightforwardWe will ask for him every timeYou should do the sameThank you so much John, see you in months :)

It's been a few months since September that our air conditioner clocked out right in the middle of a heat wave Your technician Casey got here towards the end of the day and in an hour was able to replace a broken motor fan part up in the attic He just happen to have a replacement on hand in his truck The reason for all these details is that I am very impressed with ChasRoberts for sending their technicians well stocked for emergency situations Casey was fully dressed in uniform and had to work in an oven-like condition Nonetheless, he was able to resolve the problem without having to special order parts A great shout out and thank you to Casey, a well qualified technician for a job well done (deserves a bonus) And to ChasRoberts for being prepared and equipped for tackling our Phoenix heat related emergency conditions and for having such a great crew

I have been a loyal customer of Chas Roberts for many yearsHowever, their service quality and technician quality has deteriorated over the years I have had my cooling/heating system serviced for years by the company under their "CAP program" I use to pay every fall, but they made me starting paying every spring instead (This means that I paid one fall and also paid one spring in a row since they decided I needed to be paying in the spring in order to get in the "spring" payment cycle) For a number of years I have been paying each spring, which would include the fall heating check & the next spring/summer cooling check In June 2017, Chas Roberts came to my home and did their service - the technician even stated that I didn't have to pay since I was already paid up, but I could renew my yearly "CAP" then and save $20.00, which would include the servicing for Fall and Spring - I didWell, Chas Roberts never came in the Fall/Winter or even call me or mail a card

This company is inefficient in many waysCalled for an appointment for maintenance in October I already paid for.I also specified I would not be able to have them come until late November or early DecemberThe person I spoke to said,”no problem “ just call when you know for sure
I called yesterday and was told the earliest they could come was December 31st between and PmNot acceptable! I have been a customer for years I was told someone would call me that day to see what could be doneI gave phone numbers to reach me and they completely ignored the numbers I gave and called on a different numberThey couldn’t even get that correct
Chas Roberts customer service needs to be overhauled and they should teach the representatives how to treat long time customers
I called a different company who has been in the Valley a long timeThey were recommended by a friend who said they were very efficient and easy to get in touch withThe representative I spoke to not only told me they were running a special that was much less expensive but could be out on the day I needed
I would never recommend Chad Roberts to anyoneIf I didn’t have to fill in the Star part of this survey they would get zero

"The Brick", Michael, from Chas Roberts took care of all our concerns and then some He was professional, explained what he found and corrected and was very friendly as well We will be requesting him as our personal technician!

This is the very worst HVAC company in the valleyThey installed a system in our new home and don't stand behind itWe waited all day for a technician and every time I called I was given a run aroundThe tech came almost four hours later than promised and spent half the evening *** down a leak he couldn't findHe left and the temperature rose to degrees higher to degrees! We've called the rest of the evening attempting to reach someone who will work on our systemNeedless to say we have been given a bs story and the latest is that the only technician is an hour away yetIt's 10pm on a holiday weekend nightIf this wasn't under warranty we'd be calling Floyd's, an extremely reliable company

They said they would only charge me $85, then charged $and $an hour for labor-good Lord-very deceptive business practices-
Pam

Extremely expensiveService tech said it was the builders fault for putting in the cheapest air conditioning unitI felt the company was very unprofessional

Hi, I’m *** *** I am a property manager for a lot of homes in Gilbert, San Tan, & Queen Creek I want to thank a service technician, Ryan U***; as well as Chas Roberts, for supporting Ryan as he always does more than a great job on our homes Ryan has been to of my properties, repaired units, maintained others (some have more than one) and and he is very thorough and covers every part of our AC and Heat systems He cleans up his mess and sometimes a little of our tenants mess Some tenants say they’ve seen a web page showing he’s an *** *** *** *** *** * *** *** * *** *** *** * *** *** *** *** *** It’s amazing, to think Chas found such a gem Our tenants love him, when they say they’re a tenant, he asks if a landlord is available for recommendations or if they have a limited power of attorney for repairs We’ve started sending our tenants POA’s so he can do workSeveral ask why other techs are so messy or fast, he told them, “we’re all experts at something, I like to be careful because this is your home and Chas Roberts wants to give you the Best That means I give you my best.” I hope I meet him because I’d like to buy him lunch and get a warranty for each unit as we replace them Genuinely a pleasure to have Ryan in our homes of stars, best of the techs that serve our *** *** *** home corporate rentals Perfect Chas Roberts Thank you and Thank Ryan from all of us!

I just wanted to share my negative experience with Chas Roberts I just bought this brand new house which I had it build and closed on January 29, and today which is 6/6/my air conditioning broke down since Saturday the 4th and has not been fixed yet I am in Az and the temp is up to and had to call this company because the warranty is with them but didn't get any help yet I have called them times and every time they tell me someone will call me back and now one doesI have an elderly and children living with me but they don't seem to care about that I will never recommend this company to anyone they don't care about the customer at all

We've been a Chas Roberts HVAC customer for more than years and when we ran into plumbing issues at our two homes, they were the first to come to mind for the repairs Replacement of a failed mains gate valve at one home and replacement of an aged water heater at the second were performed by the same plumbing tech - Joseph, and he was friendly, courteous, punctual and thorough (and he had a good sense of humor)
We'll continue to depend on the Chas Roberts team for all of our HVAC and (now) plumbing needs

We wanted to pass on our appreciation to Chas Roberts and their technician Joseph W*** we provided us a great service experience this morningJoseph was incredibly professional and personableHe was efficient but was quite willing to explain things to us and answer all our questionsHe certainly knew his stuff and left us comfortable and assured in our choice to work with themThanks again Jospeh! Hope our appreciation gets back to you!

On Jun I had a repair done to my Air ConditioningWhen I received my invoice *** the technician documented that he replaced the motor and capThen when I looked at all of the charges, there is a $charge for replacing a motor and on that same line it states that the same charge includes the capThen there is a second charge for replacing any cap of $ Since the technician only documented replacing one cap I should not be getting billed for a second capI have tried getting in contact with someone at both of their offices in Tucson and in Phoenix

This was our second visit from Eugene who was here today to service our air conditioners We find him to be a positive and knowledgeable representative of your company We plan to request him in the future
