Just been charged DOUBLE the number of hours by Chuck's that the two workmen were here. They came twice: less than two hours first day; 4 3/4 hours two weeks later (so approx 13 man hours). Both times we were the problem-solvers with our small job of fitting a new stove top and down-draught vent in our stone countertop, everything was a problem and wouldn't work in their view, at first they tried to fit a huge 12" vent when we could see a 10" vent was the correct size (they did send someone out with the correct sized vent in the end), and when they left we had to call in our own regular carpenters to "tidy up" their work.
Then we get the invoice: we have been charged for 26 1/2 hours work at $90 per hour. Think about it: the equivalent of three days of work to hook up a new stovetop! Daylight robbery and downright fraud. I spoke to the receptionist at Chuck's and left a message for the boss, Jay, today, and am now waiting to find out if this is blatant dishonesty or an honest mistake.

Critical: Responsiveness They were very prompt to come look at our condo and walk through for an estimate, but never returned the estimate to us, leaving us hanging. Bad beginning. We went elsewhere.

Chuck's Heating is absolutely fabulous to work with. I had a custom job where I was replacing my kitchen crown molding with custom metal trims, they can out and measured and then when we needed to make slight adjustments afterwards Gary and Joann were totally accommodating. They take real pride in their work. Thank you!

A crew from Chuck's was here the last five days installing a 2 outdoor unit, 6 indoor unit ductless heat pump system in our home in Williston. Not only was the crew punctual, respectful and professional, they also went the extra mile to work with me to make sure the slimducts outside looked exactly how we had hoped. I work from home so was here for the entire install, but never once felt the need to check up on this crew. I can't recommend this company highly enough if you want a great Mitsubishi mini split heat pump system installed.

Our gas furnace stopped working this winter just before Christmas, so it was emergency. Loved that they showed up in masks and got assurance we would be masked. They analyzed the problem, replaced some parts and cleaned the external outlet pipes. After some basic testing they assured me it worked. By that evening it was not working. Being stuck with no one working Christmas, I googled the type of unit and found some common issues that were easy to repair. I made the fixes myself and it has worked all winter and spring.

Have now had occasion to call upon Chuck's Heating 3 times. We were never a customer before - but they treated us like we were. First was for the complete installation of a dual heat system added to my existing gas furnace (Nick). Second experience was to have all the duct work cleaned and sanitized in our home. Third visit was today (John) to repair a high pressure heat pump line I accidentally cut during a renovation project.
On each if the 3 appointments, the service technicians were on time, professional, extremely neat and all very knowledgeable in addition to being genuinely friendly and outgoing. I wouldn't hesitate to HIGHLY recommend Chuck's Heating to anyone looking for a solution to and HVAC, plumbing or metal fabrication project.

I own a couple of rental properties in Burlington and needed to have the clothes dryer vents cleaned on short notice. Two young men from Chuck's showed up and did a very quick and professional job. One of the units required some difficult work.outdoors in very cold weather. These guys were Great. I had no previous experience with Chucks.but would definitely hire them again. By the way., they were recommended to me by the condo management people as well as my appliance dealer.
