Omar was polite, quick, and thorough! He’s welcome back in 6 months!
Elijah was great. A very thorough service call. Already renewed my service agreement for next year.
Our 22 year old system finally gave up the ghost so we contacted Garner for an estimate. Max, the Project Manager pitched up same day to assess everything and gave us an estimate with financial options. Max was very professional, courteous and helpful guiding us through in language we understand and never pressured us. Having decided on which model we wanted, the job was conveniently scheduled. At 6:10am on the day, Ethan and his 4-man crew pitched up and set to work. They were all very professional, respectful and got on with their work efficiently. Ethan was on top of the job from the get-go ensuring everything was being done to spec. By mid-day our old system was out and the new one was installed and being tested. Ethan then took the time to walk me through what had been done and then showed me how to operate the new thermostat - patiently answering all my questions. We are extremely happy with our new system and would not hesitate to recommend Garner to anyone looking for competent professional service and support.
Jacob is very professional, courteous, and well organized. He is also timely and respectful.
Matt provided excellent customer service showing photos to explain the issues and providing options for repair.
Our tech, Omar, was able to arrive even earlier than expected. His communication was great regarding arrival and the services he would be performing. He was very thorough and thoughtful in his report of the condition of our ac unit. He made sure all questions were answered and left us with peace of mind. A great experience!
Matt is the consummate professional! Thorough to perfection. Constantly telling me what he was checking next and why. He looks ahead to see if he can spot any future problems and head them off at the pass! Go Matt! No unnecessary upsale. No condescending attitude. Just honest, complete work. Super conscientious of your home and how he impacts it while he’s there. He leaves you looking for a place to leave him a tip!! He’s a star that makes Garner shine!
Matt did a routine visit on our newish Carrier system. He was very communicative and professional. He showed pictures to explain some of the work he did. All the Garner techs have always done well for us.
Great maintenance visit and gave us helpful info on care in between visits. Friendly, knowledgeable and efficient!!

I found the breaker tripped to the outdoor unit. I checked all electrical wiring and verified it was in good shape, then reset the breaker. I did find the compressor was pulling 70 amps on start up out of the rated 63. After further diagnostics, I found the compressor start assist had failed. This was causing the compressor to pull higher amperage which could have been the reason the breaker tripped. Repair options were presented to the homeowner and she chose to have the start assist replaced. I replaced the start assist and cycled power at the thermostat. After replacing the start assist the compressor pulled 58-59 amps on start up. No other issues were found. The system is operational at this time.
