They did an excellent job at diagnosing my unit’s issue. Fair price to fix too, and they came out fast and fixed it on the spot!

RIP OFF DON'T USE!! 6/22/2012

RIP OFF RIP OFF RIP OFF, Bottom line I was going to get charged 354.13 to replace a part I ended up paying 9.79 at home depot. My brother in law replaced the inside part of my toilet in less than 10 minutes. I still got charged 78.00 for them to try and RIP MY FAMILY OFF SOME MORE!!!!! JEFF and RANDY are crooks, I may set them up with WAVYEWS 10!!!!! Please believe me I never complain like this. This was a total waste of hard earned money, their slogan does not mean CRAP when you treat customers like this in a struggling economy!!! more

Professional and prompt! The tech 5/28/2012

Professional and prompt! The tech (Mark) was excellent! He took the time to explain his expertise and the procedure that he performed. He left my home in better condition than it was in before he arrived. The entire experience with A-1 was much better than I've had with ANY similar companies. I highly recommend them. They have definately gained a customer for life! If you want a more personal review, feel free to contact me @ 757-340-0653. more

High Praise for Two Professonals 5/9/2012

Larrry an dMark from A-1 American are two excellent plumbers who know their stuff! They replaced my water line and did an excellent, clean job with it. I liked their professional and friendly attitude and they looked clean and ready to work! Five stars, no question! more

Nice and courteous! 5/8/2012

We were very pleased with John from A-1 American. A courteous and professional young man and very knowledgeable about his work. He completed the job to our satisfaction and was efficient in what he did! more

Honest and generous! 4/24/2012

I had to call the office of A-1 American Services to let them know what an assest they have in Bryan B. He came to fix a backed-up shower at my mother's place. My mother is 90 years old and lives on a budget. Bryan worked hard to get the shower working again and stayed for quite a while to unclog it....and only charged her for the service fee. He is an honest young man with a sense of decency and respect for the elderly. I am very impressed and will make sure to vote for them again next year as the ""Best Of Plumber"" in Portsmouth! They certainly deserve the Gold award for their character. more

Great Technician 4/24/2012

I have high praises for Mr. Adam W. from A-1 American Services and will make sure to pass on the word about what fantastic technicians A-1 Ameircan Services employs. Adam did a wonderful job: he was on time, efficient, amicable, and very professional. This man is a true asset to the company and I hope they will keep him for a long time.\r more

Awesome plumbers 4/17/2012

My husband called for an estimate, which they gave right on the phone. They had a plumber available the next day, who called to let me know the time he could arrive. He arrived right on time, super polite, very professional. Did the work with no mess in a very apropriate time line. What more could a customer ask for? Their pricing was fair and competitive with other companies and they showed up when they said they would and didn't make a huge mess in my kitchen. The work done was done properly and I've had no problems since. more

Competent plumbers 4/5/2012

I called A-1 on a recommendation after Betty's Plumbing never showed one day. I made an appt 10 days earlier and called the day before to confirm. The plumber assigned to me was filling in for someone else and I had to call a few times. He came about 2 hours late. My repair turned out to be an expensive one, but he offered me a coupon discount to soften the blow. They don't repair walls they have to cut in to, but they did fix my problem and were very professional and worked to get my job done. I'm sure in an emergency they would have a much faster response. Once he was here, he did a great job. I will call them again for sure! more

Rapid response, friendly, will use again 4/3/2012

A-1 responded on late Saturday night and said they would be at my home on Sunday AM. The rapid response was exceeded only by the skill of the service and the friendly demeanor of the repairman. Excellent service. more

Pleased with the professional service! 4/2/2012

We were very pleased with the professional service we received from the technicians at A-1 American Services. For one thing, they were on time and called us half an hour before they arrived that they were on their way. They also explained everything thoroughly as they were diagnosing the issues we were having. We also appreciated the fact that they were careful at cleaning up the work area behind them. This has been a very positive expereience, from beginning to end. more

Efficient and Courteous 3/27/2012

We were more than satisfied with the service from A-1 American. Mark and Nick did an excellent job of installing our new bathroom faucet. They were on time and did a superb job of keeping everything clean as they performed their work. We highly recommend this company to anyone requiring this service.\r William D more

Very friendly and informative 3/18/2012

i have been very pleased with the service I received from A-1 American. John was very friendly, informative, fast, and thorough. I appreciated that he was on time and cleaned up after himself. As you can see from my rating, based on my experience, I would give this company five stars for professional service. more

RIP OFF 2/16/2012

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! It's a shame they get away with charging these outrageous prices. Our oil furnace started making a weird noise so we had it checked out. My husband found A1 online.(I've seen their cheesy commercials and would not have gone with them) Like other reviewers have noted, they charged 78 dollars to diagnosis it. Technician was rude and unprofessional. He informed us that it would be $860 to replace the motor.( with our military discount of course) He wanted to be paid upfront and was very pushy. We asked what the price of the motor was, he got out a big catalog and fumbled a little only to inform us he didnt know what the price was but that there were ""set prices for jobs"". While my husband was talking with him I quickly looked up the price for the part online. After seeing that most of the motors were no more than 120 dollars we declined service and paid the 78 dollars. We called another company who warned us about A1, he told us the price of the motor and said he charges 100 dollars an hour but it shouldn't take more than an hour. more

Polite and fair! 2/10/2012

My story with A-1 American started with a miscommunication. I called them to have a technician come out and fix my heating unit. I waited and waited, but nobody came by. The next morning I decided to call another company; however, not only was that company's diagnostic fee higher ($109), but I was also told that the fee would not be waived but rather added on to the total cost of any work performed. Once I got that information, I called A-1 American again, and it turned out that the technician had been given the wrong number and had, thus, been unable to get in touch with me the previous evening. We arranged for another appointment the same day. This time, the technician came by on time, and I was very pleased with the service! Herman was polite and professional. What impressed me the most was that he took the time to explain exactly what he was doing and what, in his opinion, needed to be done. He did not try to manipulate me into buying any services I did not need. Once I understood that he could be trusted, I gave him the green light to go ahead with the work. Herman and his helper Joe did an excellent job and were very personable. I was so impressed with their service that I intend to tell my neighbors in the condo community about the outstanding professionalism they can expect from A-1 American. I highly recommend them!\r \r \r \r more

Great service! 2/7/2012

Jake from A-1 American replaced the single system in our home with two new heat pump systems. We have seen a substantial increase in comfort –our biggest worry were the utility bills. To my relief, the bills have actually gone down – and that’s with two systems running now instead of one! Jake finished the work on time; he was professional and polite. more

Consistently efficient and professional! 2/6/2012

I had my HVAC System installed by A-1 American 5 years ago. The few times I had issues, they took care of it right away. I’ve used them for a few bigger plumber issues as well, both in my house and my rental property. Their techs and office staff are efficient and on it. – There’s a reason they’ve been in business for 25 years. \r \r more

Great job! 1/29/2012

The A-1 American plumbers were great! I had a flood last week caused by a broken pipe behind my dishwasher. My neighbor told me to get a plumber ASAP as the shut off didn't work 100%. I had a plumber over a few hours later and they discovered it was actually a small issue with a flexible hose. They did a great job. more

Courteous - I'm very pleased! 1/26/2012

A compliment to the plumber named John. He came to my house to fix my commode which was leaking. I thought it had to be completely replaced, but he checked everything and repaired it by replacing the bolts. John was courteous, thoughtful, and honest. If anybody needs an honest plumber, ask for John with A-1 American. I will ask for him again next time I need a plumber! more

Like 'em, they're honest! 1/26/2012

The technician was great (Jake). No pressure and pragmatic. Install went smoothly on the day of. - The negatives? The city inspector came in later and found a gas junction fixture that was not included. However they made good on this correction and took full responsibility for the oversight. They didn’t try to justify anything but apologized and got it right the next time! more

Long-time Customer and happy about it! 1/22/2012

We’ve used A-1 American for many years now. Each time they have gone above and beyond with customer satisfaction. Some companies might be a little cheaper, but I prefer knowing that I had a real professional work on my system who knows what he’s doing. I can highly recommend them, based on many years of personal experience. more
