Report
Daniel was excellent. He cleaned our unit which was in rough shape and recharged our AC quickly and affordably. He also provided invaluable insight as to future maintenance that may be needed and recommended multiple common sense solutions going forward to address it. I will never use another AC/furnace company. Doc Dancer is a fantastic local company and Daniel should get a raise!

Jason Hissong was awesome in every way. Quick, efficient, on time, and courteous. We ran into an issue with a leak with our AC and I didn't have the time to look into it and address it. Called and got an appointment right away and he had it back online in no time. This is the 2nd time Doc Dancer has done work for us and both times were the best experiences with HVAC maintenence and repair. They will be our go to company moving forward. THANKS DOC DANCER!

Report
I received bids from Doc Dancer and another company. What made Doc stand out was how they werent just going to install new units, but actually fix foundational issues and draining that were already there. They went above and beyond to make sure things were done the right way. He explained everything they were going to do before and everything they did after. They cleaned up well!
