Our process
How it works.
Call or Text
Call (585) 368-8685 any time, day or night. If you reach voicemail, leave your name, address, and issue -- our answering service will contact the on-call technician immediately. You will receive a callback within 30 minutes.
Diagnosis
Our on-call technician will ask a few questions to help diagnose the issue and confirm whether we have the likely needed parts on the truck. This minimizes trips and gets your system running faster.
On-Site Repair
We carry common furnace ignitors, flame sensors, blower motors, capacitors, and control boards. Most no-heat calls resolve in one visit. If parts must be ordered, we'll advise on temporary heat options.
Safety Check
After every emergency repair, we verify the system is operating safely: combustion analysis, heat exchanger check, and CO detector test. We don't leave until we're confident the system is safe for your family.

If you smell gas, leave the house and call National Grid or RG&E immediately before calling us.
