The technician came out, checked a few things on my non-functioning heat pump then told me I had a leak. Gave me an invoice for $3000 to repair it and said he would need to leave and go buy Nitrogen for the repair. I needed heat but I felt there was something wrong with this diagnosis and the $3000 price tag. Called another HVAC company who came same day and fixed the issue for less than $300.

Unfortunately, I have learned that a lot of HVAC companies are scammers, and this is one of them. They tell you you need more work done than you actually need. 

Business response:

Hello Melissa, I’m sorry to hear that we did not provide you with a five-star experience. Our goal is always to present clear options and recommendations in a good, better, best format so customers can make the best decision for their home. After reviewing your account, I did note that our technician spent nearly two hours on your visit and did not charge anything for the estimates. That said, I understand that time alone does not always reflect the quality of service you expected, and I would appreciate the opportunity to b... read more

I sent a Yelp request for a While home drain clean out, selected Wiightons as they could have a tech out next morning. Took the day iff. Next morning turned I to Monday, maybe. Lost a WHOLE day of work. I won't be calling them back.

Used Wighton's a long time. Service is decent but overpriced. Yesterday's interaction with technician James sealed the deal for me. I will be moving on from this company. It was the second time James has come to my home. Both times, I found him dismissive and condescending. He even insinuated at yesterday's service call (which was a call-back becuase the job was not done right the first time) that the faucet became loose again because me or my HS daughter were too 'rough' in daily use of the faucet -- rather than the fact ... read more

Hello Julie, My name is Nate Medina, and I am the General Manager. I wanted to personally reach out and follow up with you. Our goal is always to work with our customers and ensure they feel supported—not discouraged. We expect 100% professionalism from our technicians at all times, and I take that expectation seriously.

I was promised a service call between 2 and 4..at 4:30 they called and cancelled..it was horrible as the issue was in my Airbnb granny unit..the people left after I said the problem couldn't be fixed that day..so I not only lost money but a wasted day waiting

This company was bought by a venture capital company by the name of pipe dreams. There goal is to get in your house and upsell whether or not you need it. They pay there technicians so poorly that the tech turnaraound is very high. So you won't see a familiar face with them. This company represents greed on its highest level! Quality is always questionable because of the high technician turnaround.

SAVE YOU MONEY!! CALL SOMEONE ELSE! I'll take back my 5 star review for the company. The 5 star was for the worker Jared. Since the Wighton did a good job for my new ducting. I thought it would have been the same but it WAS NOT!! The appointment was for 8am but really didn't start until after 9am. Ok that had to get things together ( maybe ). The person who worked installed the exhaust fan called three different times to someone. I thought it was a personal phone call but It could have been "I don't know how do this job" !!... read more

Business response:

I called early, a computer took my call. I jumped through all the hoops. I was to get a call back. I received several texts press 1 to confirm and so on. The next day texts continued. I then received a call from some sort of call I think may not have been from this country saying they don't work on ice makers. Really, Really. Next 

Business response:

Hello Clay, I apologize for the difficulties you experienced when trying to reach our call center. During times of higher-than-normal call volume, our automated system assists with handling calls. In these cases, a courtesy follow-up call should occur within a few minutes, and I’m sorry this did not happen as expected. I will personally reach out to you tomorrow morning to see how we can assist you with your service repair needs. Thank you for sharing your feedback—I truly appreciate it and look forward to speaking with yo... read more
