 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have had amazing service from Elgin Sheet Metal. They originally installed our system when our house was built in 1991 and have since put in our new system about 5-6 years ago.  Over the years, they have been excellent and timely on service and we highly recommend them. Recently, we had a capacitor replaced in our condenser. They came out right away and the service was great.  I want to put out a plug for our Service Tech, Abby. She is wonderful, knowledgeable, and follows ups consistently to schedule appointments within our schedules.  Again, if you your looking for a quality and service minded provider for new installs and service, please reach out to Elgin Sheetmetal.  Dave

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Woke up to our heat not working and they were able to come within a couple hours to fix it. The woman, I believe her name was Gabby, who showed up was very professional. She diagnosed the suspected issue but ran though multiple other scenarios to be sure before taking everything apart. She was able to replace the blower motor and get my house warm again. Very happy with the work and will definitely us Elgin Sheet Metal for future issues.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had our HVAC system replaced by Elgin Sheet Metal. We live on the sixth floor of a condo, so it was not a simple job. Pat and Lance handled the logistics and installation of the system and they are truly professionals. From the initial quote to the insulation of the new system was only about a week. Crazy fast. The team is highly knowledgeable and polite, I would highly recommend this company.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I call for an estimate because our furnace was coming up to 24 years old and didn't want it to break down this winter.  A gentleman showed up right on  time and began to work up an estimate.  In conversing with the person, I find out it's the owner of the company, when does that ever happen.  Two weeks later Arron showed up to replace our system, within a few hours later he had the new air conditioning.  He cleaned up and said he would be back tomorrow.  The next day he had the whole system up and running.   Arron also assisted with the new programmable thermostat.
Then two days later we had all of our paperwork in the mail with great instructions for submitting the paperwork for our rebates.
I would definitely use them again they were efficient, and got the work done on time.
When you call for service they are so easy to work with, call and set up a time to come out and they are right there.  Great service!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely wonderful service. Timely manner, great attitude, reasonable prices. My clients needed new furnace and central a/c installed, they were offered a few quotes, the whole job took less than a week. Unreal!!!
