Air Conditioner Repair Meridian
Air Conditioner Repair
I was surprised on an air conditioner repair Meridian job. A homeowner called and asked how much for a new motor. After some information I said it would be $285. The surprising part was she had a company out there right now that was telling her $400. Thinking that was high she decided to call for a 2nd opinion. In 32 years this is the first time someone had called while another company was still at their home. After hearing our price she asked us to come over as soon as possible. I told her we were on our way. She called about 5 min. later and said the tech was refusing to leave until he pulled her motor out. I told her we would be there in 10 min. to tell him to stop right there and leave.

We arrived just as the other tech was pulling away. We replaced her motor and checked out her entire system. After the repair I spent some time talking to her about why she had called the other company if she did not know of them previously. She said she looked on the web and had found them because of the low $30 service call. Compared to a few others she saw at $75-$100 she felt it was a deal. On this air conditioner repair Meridian she found out an important lesson, that a cheap cost up front does not mean a low cost repair.
