Can’t say enough about the technician Christian. He was patient and explained everything to me in a way that I could completely understand. He took his time and checked my system and repaired it without any problem. The office staff was very accommodating when I told them that my 91 year old father lived with me and the house was becoming uncomfortable. She dispatched Christian right away. R and B was recommended by a friend who was retired from the industry after 50 years. He said they were the best and they proved him right. Highly recommend them!

Service Manager, Daren Blakey, is the best. He was very helpful and knowledgeable. Technician, Jorge Romero, was excellent. He was on time and did excellent work. R&B is lucky to have Daren and Jorge on their team. I highly recommend R&B. Jim. M.

Excellent service . . . came out the next day. Super nice young man repaired my AC. He stayed until he made sure all was OK. Would definitely use R&B again! If I could give them 6 stars, I would!!

It is really hard to find a consistently high quality and reputable company that always gets the job done. R & B has helped us through multiple HVAC problems and upgrades over the years for a great price. A recent example, the home warranty company we got with the purchase of a new house sent two other companies out to our house who failed to identify any problem and left us in 85° heat for weeks. We called R & B who came out within 48 hours, quickly diagnosed the problem as a faulty condenser fan capacitor, and restored cooling within an hour. R & B also completely replaced the HVAC in our split-level older home and rebalanced all of the heating and cooling perfectly so we had a consistent temperature on all floors. Thanks for great service!

I am a very happy customer. Just had my entire HVAC systems replaced. I had three other quotes and some cheaper but David Snyder from R&B had a systems approach for the entire house and worked with me to understand the unique aspects of my system and house and existing duct system and how to best accommodate the upgrade. Andrew the lead technician for installation work was awesome as was Steve who led the duct work. David stayed in touch the entire time the work was being done and worked a couple of issues very quickly. These guys were responsive and professional and i am thrilled with the work they did. Highly recommended!

I was happy they came the same day I called. Found a fix for my AC by bypassing broken circuit board and now I have time to schedule an appt. for the installation of a new unit.

The technician was right on time and wasted no time to go to work. Also very friendly and personable. I was surprised to not seeing the regular technician but I am glad to have more variety of good workers from the company. Thank you for your services.

R&B installed our A/C system 20 years ago and have maintained and repaired it when necessary it ever since. They also service our boiler and did a major repair on it a few years ago. I cant recommend them highly enough for these types of services.

R&B saved me $6000. We have a condenser on the 4th floor of our town home and I woke up in the middle of the night to find water coming through the ceiling of our master bedroom. I called an emergency service to come take a look. They immediately went for the hard sell and tried to get me to commit to complete replace right then and there.I called R&B to provide a second opinion. Tech showed up and immediately resolved the issue: A clogged drain. $250 and my problem was solved.Thanks R&B for not taking advantage of my situation for a quick buck. Youve earned my business for life.

Thank you R&B for taking my call this morning and sending Scott out to fix my UniCo a/c system. I had many a bad experiences before I found R&B, Inc. and Scott. He is an expert, quick, professional, extremely knowledgeable and patient when I ask questions. The staff is very efficient when processing a call and my thanks to them as well. I hope you guys are in business for many more years to come because youre the BEST!!Linda

Stay away! This company is in business of collecting service fees. As they had good reviews here, we contacted them back in June to take a look at our AC system and give us a quote. A technician showed up a few days later, charged us $106 service fee and left saying that someone would contact us with a repair estimate. After listening to crickets for a month despite our numerous phone calls, we had to hire a different contractor. So, basically, we paid $106 for them to show up their face and then disappear. I am not sure who writes all of these positive reviews here, but our experience with them was completely disappointing.

The employees @ R & B bend over backwards to help. On the phone, they are always pleasant & do their best to find a time that meets your needs. The technical service people that come to your home are careful, efficient & knowledgeable.

Jorge of R&B came to us yesterday for regular maintenance of our cooling system. As always, he was on time, professional and polite. Given the COVID-19 precautions, both we in the house and he as the visitor complied with the new requirements, but did not let them get in the way of doing the necessary. It is always a pleasure to welcome this fine fellow to our house!

Our upstairs air conditioning unit stopped working yesterday around dinner time. Called the overnight service and left a message. Person on the other end was super helpful and professional. The issue is that my 96 year old mother lives with us and I can’t afford for it to get so hot upstairs. The lovely lady on the answering service annotated that and before 8:00 AM today I got a call from Paulette from R & B and she said someone would come out today between 2-6 today. Jose was here before 3:00, assessed the situation and fixed it lickity split. It required him to go up in our sweltering attic but he did not hesitate. I can’t thank all of the professionals at R & B. No wonder we have been customers of yours for over 20 plus years. THANK YOU so much! Cyndie Camperson

Recommended to me by a friend who is very particular - I was looking for an honest HVAC company and having the hardest time as many of these contractors in NO VA are crooks. R&B Incorporated came out on time, diagnosed the situation correctly and showed up at the appointed time with the new air conditioner unit at a fair price. The installation team was polite, knowledgeable, and did a craftsman-like job, and cleaned up 100% afterwards. My wife commented They were the Best. I examined their work and its very professional. See the photos - they silicone seal the humidifier to the coil and supplied us with a clean out trap and brush (most HVAC installers would not bother with these small but significant details). This sort of works defines them as professionals.Five stars for them and I will use them in the future as well.

Ive dealt with R&B for 14 years and couldn’t be more pleased with their service, pleasant attitude and attentiveness to their business. I highly recommend them as your go-to HVAC sales and service team.

Weve used R&B for over ten years now to extend the life of the old air conditioning system in our Cap Hill row house. Its difficult to find the combination of professionalism, knowledge and simple courtesy that weve come to really value in them. Ive heard R&B treats their employees very well and it shows in everything they do. Today, Jorges visit was the usual great experience and I decided to finally write a review.

Awesome service from R & B Heating and Air Conditioning. Professional, affordable and quick. I worked with 3 other local companies that couldnt fix my issue over 4 weeks. finally called R & B - they had my part in two days and the problem fixed on day 3. The service manager went above and beyond with assisting me personally and the rest of the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I highly recommend R & B for repairs and maintenance.

The professional, efficient and polite service of R & B has shined bright once more for an urgent need today.I have referred R & B for years to my clients as a REALTOR. People are always pleased.We need more businesses to treat customers like R & B does. They are attentive, kind, respectful and treat people as people not like a number.Thank you R & B once more.

My experience has been great. Two times now they have fixed my heat pump unit 3 years apart - different issues. I expect to get even more years out of my AC system now that they have repaired it. Everyone I have met so far has been honest and the prices are fair. I will seriously consider them when it does come time to replace my system in the future.

They’ve installed 2 AC units and a water pump. Every crew that has come to the house is courteous, knowledgeable and professional. This last service I give a shout out to Ray and Andrew, true professionals and so clean in installing my attic AC unit you would never know they were at the house.

Review №33

I got quotes from several major HVAC companies located in the Northern Virginia area to replace a central air conditioning unit in my high-rise condo. R & B was both the nicest people of all to deal with, (no attitude, just a professional and refreshingly friendly approach - treating their customers like family) and they were the least expensive quote as well! They did the work quicker than I expected in a neat and clean fashion, answered all of my questions and provided a finished result that was outstanding. I highly recommend them.

R & B heating and air conditioning was so obnoxious today, I cannot imagine anyone would want to have something to do with them. As I told their manager, they make Comcast look great.They were rude.They said they would come out but call first, but they did not call first and then they yelled at me.Then, they did the exact same thing a second time in the same day!All this after someone rushed home to meet them.Avoid at all costs unless you like being treated like crap.

These guys replaced my condos HVAC at a competitive price. They even added a second short return duct to improve circulation and balance the air flow so the new unit wouldnt choke out early the way the old one had. Its been over a year, and when I called to have a quick inspection done for the HOA they were friendly and able to get me in the next day. While their pricing isnt the lowest Ive seen its extremely aggressive for the quality of service. Definitely the top value Ive experience.

Great experience with R & B Heating and Air Conditioning for replacement of a condominium unit heat pump system. The new system maintains a more comfortable climate than I’ve ever had in the past 10 years at a terrifically reasonable cost I couldn’t find anywhere else! Thank you to the entire R & B Heating and Air Conditioning Team! See below for a full description.ProsBest price by 20 percent among three estimatesEasy-to-understand proposalFriendly and knowledgeable team, from estimate to installFlexible and understanding, supported my requestsConsNone!I needed to replace a heat pump system leaking coolant (12-year-old builder’s original installation). I had to change both the rooftop heat pump and the apartment-size wall-mounted indoor air handler at the same time due to the outdated coolant (R-22). I sought estimates from five HVAC companies, but R & B somehow came in significantly less than their competition.I appreciated the salesman’s calm, friendly demeanor (Mr. David Gordon) as he explained the options for replacing the apartment-sized system. He gave me an easy-to-read work proposal with a detailed description of a replacement Carrier system with some optional upgrades. He quickly answered all my questions about Carrier heat pump models, performance, and the optional upgrades. I selected the proposal for a Carrier Comfort series 14 SEER heat pump (most economical of Carrier’s three series) paired with a new apartment-sized wall-mounted air handler, with a new Honeywell touchscreen programmable thermostat (VisionPro 8000).The installation team of Romàn and Tommy seemed young but proved they had plenty of experience and knew their procedures. They politely answered all my questions and worked methodically to remove and replace the indoor air handler and the rooftop heat pump. Fitting the new system challenged them but they worked hard!I also proved a tough R & B customer that day. When Romàn and Tommy removed the indoor air handler and we saw the large amount of space to work with, I told them to stop and allow me to decide about upgrading to Carrier’s larger, premium series air handler and heat pump. Mr. Gordon drove over within an hour to discuss the new proposal and options, but I ultimately choose to continue with the more cost-effective system. Work re-commenced immediately and although they couldn’t finish by the end of the day, R & B sent Romàn early the next morning to complete the job.
