A group of men 4-5 showed up at my residence and were very professional and courteous; that goes a long way with me, in times when people are so uncaring toward others.

Our AC suddenly stopped working one evening. We called Ride Out and Sons and they were here not even an hour later. They were able to make the repairs and even had the part on hand, AC was repaired in no time! Service: Repair HVAC

Rideout & Sons were efficient, on time, and the best price in town. I called other AC sites to ask for a bid to work on my AC, all of which said they had a charge varying from $39 to $109. Rideout had no charge and gave me a bid the same day. They arrived early with enough techs to finish the job in 1.5 hours. Sometime after leaving, I noted that my thermostat was not operating correctly. I called Rideout and a tech arrived within 10 minutes. He diagnosed the problem, fixed it and best of all NO CHARGE for his help. This is a great company that stands behind its work.

Twice in the past two years I've had to do call for AC repair. I'm on a very tight budget so I called the cheapest repairs I could find. Both times I ended up having to call Rideout after because the "cheaper" companies could not fixed the issue. From now on I will always call first should I need them again! Very professional and get the job done right the first time!
