Two work trucks speeding all over Dodge street, weaving in-and-out of traffic. Not very professional.

Report
R.J. Nelson Co was one of the only local HVAC companies that actually called me back to set up an appointment! They were quick, friendly, and professional when coming to my home for a quote, also extremely reasonable - a smidge cheaper than another company I had gotten a fast quote on. Not only that, Alvin, was thorough and explained to me what I needed and why. The team that came to install my new furnace and AC were on time, on the DOT, and were extremely professional, quick, friendly, and did a great job. I would highly recommend RJ Nelson if you need a new furnace and air conditioner!

We contacted RJ Nelson last Friday when we were having an issue with our AC. They had someone out first thing on Saturday to take a look at it. The employee was very knowledgeable in troubleshooting the problem and very informative as to what the issues were. I would highly recommend RJ Nelson to anyone as they were very polite, professional and got the job done!
