    We recently purchased a new home and found that the ceiling duct work had too many holes to be repaired (no ceiling access). So we switched to floor vents, which means all new duct work and new holes in the floors. The first go-round was a disaster and they didn't put the vents where they originally told us and didn't even run it by us before putting the vents in COMPLETLY different spots. They also put them under our furniture (which you can imagine, doesn't really work). They also cut out big chunks of our carpet and linoleum only to discover they couldn't put the vents in those areas, so they just laid the unattached chunks of carpet and linoleum back down (with no glue or anything). They drilled piolet holes in 8 places that they didn't use and left the holes. They went all the way to the ground and allowed entrance for bugs. The Manager and Owners Son came out and discovered they also didn't even use floor vents, they used wall vents. Needless to say they all had to be replaced and moved yet again...... While having the Carpet replaced (we had to due to the 4 giant holes left in the carpet) we discovered that there were huge gaps between the subflooring and vents. We also discovered that two were not even attached to the flooring. When we sent the videos to the Company, we were told "that actually looks normal and pretty good for a mobile home installation". Not sure what our home being a mobile home has to do with janky ass gaps, but I digress.

    Our technician Safari ******* located the cause of our condensation leakage problem very quickly. He cleaned up the mess caused by the leakage and made the needed repairs while patiently answering a number of questions that I asked him. With the repairs made and proven, he cleaned up the work area, leaving it in much better condition than it was when he arrived. I couldn't have asked for better service.

    *****, thank you so much for letting us know. Years ago we realized that in our business, it doesn't matter how well a repair is done if we leave a mess behind, so we try to make sure our team takes a little extra time to leave the work area clean. Thank you for noticing.Please let us know if we can do anything more to help. We'll pass your feedback to your technician's manager.

We always strive to provide top-notch service and we're glad that Safari exceeded your expectations. Your kind words mean the world to us. Thanks for choosing Rite Way Heating, Cooling & Plumbing!
