Heating, cooling, gas and hot water

Repairs and service calls

Diagnosis and repair on whatever you've got. Capacitors, contactors, blower motors, refrigerant leaks, drain lines, thermostats, ignition problems on gas heat. If you have no heat or no cool, call whatever time it is — that's the one we get out of bed for. You get the price before anything gets fixed, and 60 days on our labor after.

System change-outsChange-outs

System change-outs

When a system is past fixing, we pull it and put in a new one: outdoor unit, indoor unit, line set and thermostat, matched so the whole thing runs as one system instead of a new part fighting an old one. Sizing gets done off the house, because an oversized unit short-cycles and never pulls the humidity out — which is why some brand-new systems still leave a place feeling clammy in August. Estimates on replacements are free.

  • Free estimate
  • Sized to the house
  • Old equipment hauled off

New installationsNew Work

New installations

New construction, additions, garages and shops, or a house that's never had central air. We handle the equipment, duct connections, and the electrical and refrigerant hookups, and we pull the permit so the work gets inspected instead of hidden.

  • New construction & additions
  • Permits pulled and inspected
  • Ductwork tied in properly

Tune-ups and maintenance plansMaintenance

Tune-ups and maintenance plans

Cooling service in the spring, heating service in the fall. Coils cleaned, refrigerant charge checked, electrical connections tightened, drain lines cleared, safeties tested. One-off tune-ups if you'd rather call when you think of it, or a maintenance agreement that puts it on the calendar automatically. A good share of the emergency calls we run in July were preventable in April.

  • Spring and fall service
  • One-off or on agreement
  • Catches problems before August does

Gas line workGas

Gas line work

New runs, extensions off an existing line, and pressure testing before anything gets lit. Ranges, dryers, gas logs, wall heaters, outdoor grills. Gas is the one thing on this list where a shortcut can hurt somebody, so it gets tested every time — no exceptions.

  • Natural gas & propane
  • New runs and extensions
  • Pressure tested before lighting
Ask about it
Water heatersHot Water

Water heaters

Replacing one that's leaking, rusted through or just done, and installing new. Gas or electric, tank or tankless. If you're stuck deciding between the two, we'll tell you straight which one actually makes sense for your house and your hot water habits, rather than pointing you at the expensive one.

  • Tank & tankless
  • Gas or electric
  • Straight talk on which to buy
Ask about it
Gas logs and fireplacesFireplaces

Gas logs and fireplaces

Installing gas logs and gas fireplaces, and servicing the ones you've already got. Yearly maintenance means cleaning the burner and logs, checking the pilot and thermocouple, and testing the gas connection — so the first cold night in November isn't the night you find out it won't light.

  • Gas log installation
  • Annual service
  • Pilot & thermocouple checks

Commercial refrigeration

Walk-in coolers and kegerators

The refrigeration half of the name. If you run a restaurant, a bar, a taproom or a store, the box that keeps your product cold is not something that can wait until Monday.

  • Walk-in coolers & freezers

    Install, service and repair — including the slow temperature drift that spoils stock before anybody notices it's happening.

  • Kegerators & draft systems

    Cooling, lines and controls, so what comes out of the tap is the temperature it's supposed to be.

  • Diagnostics, not guesswork

    Finding why a box won't hold temperature, rather than topping up refrigerant and leaving you to find out it didn't work.

  • 24/7 for heat and air

    No heat in January or no cool in July isn't a next-available-appointment problem. Call whatever time it is.

  • Free estimates on replacements

    Finding out what a new system costs shouldn't cost anything. On repairs, you get the price before work starts.

  • 60 days on our labor

    If something we did doesn't hold, we come back and put it right.

  • Insured, and local

    General liability and workers' comp, run out of Benson since 2022. Not a franchise routing you through a call center.

How a job goes

Three steps, no runaround

  1. 01

    You call or text

    Tell Joshua what it's doing and where you are. A photo of the unit and its model number speeds things up more than you'd think. If it's no heat or no cool, the time of day doesn't matter.

  2. 02

    He finds the actual problem

    Diagnosis, not guessing at parts. If it can be fixed, he'll say so. If it isn't worth fixing, he'll say that too — and the estimate on a replacement is free.

  3. 03

    You approve the price

    The number comes before the work, not after. Then it gets done, hauled off clean, and backed for 60 days.

Before you call

Tell us what it's doing

A good share of what gets called in turns out to be a filter, a breaker or a thermostat battery. Pick what's happening and we'll tell you straight what it usually means, what's worth checking yourself, and when it's time to pick up the phone.

What it usually means

The system is moving air but not removing heat from it. Most often that's low refrigerant from a leak, a dirty or iced-over coil, or a failed capacitor on the outdoor unit.

Worth checking yourself

  1. Look at the outdoor unit — is the fan spinning?
  2. Check the filter. A clogged one can ice the indoor coil solid.
  3. Feel the big copper line at the outdoor unit. Ice on it means shut the system off.

If there's ice anywhere, switch the system to OFF and the fan to ON to thaw it, then call. Running it iced up can wreck the compressor.

Call 910-705-7427

General guidance, not a diagnosis of your system. When in doubt, call — asking costs nothing.

Straight answers

Questions people actually ask

If yours isn't here, call and ask. Joshua would rather talk it through than have you guessing.

Call 910-705-7427
Do you really answer at 2 a.m.?

For no heat and no cool, yes. Those are the calls that can't wait for an appointment slot. For anything that isn't an emergency, call during the day and we'll get you on the schedule.

Do you charge to come look at it?

Estimates on system replacements are free. For a repair or service call, ask when you ring and you'll get the number up front, before anybody drives anywhere.

Is it worth fixing, or should I replace it?

Depends on the age of the system, what failed, and what the repair costs against a new one. As a rough rule, once a repair gets past about a third of replacement cost on a system over ten years old, replacing usually wins. That's a rule of thumb, not an answer — we'll look at yours and tell you which way it actually falls, and the replacement estimate costs you nothing.

What brands do you install?

We're a Goodman dealer, so that's what we fit most often and what we can price best. If you want something else — Trane, Rheem, Carrier, whatever — we can source it. Tell us what you're after.

Do you warranty your work?

60 days on our labor. Equipment carries its own manufacturer warranty on top of that, which varies by brand and by whether it gets registered — we'll walk you through that at install.

Do you offer financing?

Not at the moment. Estimates are free, so at least you'll know the number before you have to make any decisions about covering it.

Can I text you a photo instead of explaining it?

Yes, and it helps. A picture of the unit's data plate with the brand and model number saves real time and sometimes saves a trip.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes — walk-in coolers and freezers, and kegerator and draft systems. Restaurants, bars, taprooms and stores. That's the refrigeration half of the name.

How often should a system be serviced?

Once a year at minimum, twice is better in this climate — cooling in the spring, heating in the fall. We do one-off tune-ups and maintenance agreements, whichever suits you. Filters get changed every one to three months depending on the filter and whether you've got pets.

What areas do you cover?

Benson and the towns around it are home ground. We also run out to Raleigh, Garner, Lillington, Fayetteville and Goldsboro. If your town isn't listed, call anyway — it's usually still a yes.
