They were dispatched through our home warranty. They have been to our home twice. Brian our tech was very polite and professional. He has been our tech both times and has gotten right to the problem. I would definitely recommend them

Got my entire HVAC system replaced and River City gave me a quote and ended up getting me a better price than originally quoted! Repair took longer than I had anticipated but they communicated with me the whole time and didnt leave a huge mess behind! Overall I am very satisfied with their work and would recommend them to family and friends!

The company is well managed, provided top notch systems and installation, warranties and financing. They are dependable and nice guys. Technician John was at my home this week to perform semi annual inspections. He was punctual and professional and even volunteered to help me do some lifting that I could not do because of a disability. I trust this team and think you can too to do the right thing at a great price. I highly endorse them.

This was my first experience with River City H&A. Their technician (John) was quick to diagnose the issue with my outside AC unit, showed me what the problem was, and then explained how it needed to be fixed. The company promptly filed a claim with my warranty company, and a few days later, John returned with the part to make the repairs. John was incredibly thorough, professional, friendly, on time, and neat cleaning up after he was done. Even better was talking to Emily, to schedule both appointments. ITS SO NICE TO CALL A COMPANY AND ACTUALLY GET SOMEONE TO ANSWER THE PHONE ON THE FIRST RING! :) I RARELY write reviews, because I have incredibly High Standards! River City EXCEEDED ALL my best expectations! Well Done!

We hired River City to install a ductless mini split heat pump in a new addition. The physical location of the addition made installation quite challenging. From sales to installation, the staff was courteous, professional and knowledgeable. They worked hard to come up with solutions to meet the challenges of the site. The price was right too. I would definitely recommend them to friends.

I have very pleased with the work that River City Heating & Air does for my home and also my business units. I get my units service every year and I trust them if a problem arises. Their guys are always professional and very responsive. River City Heating & Air is my go to company. Trust is hard to find in all trade industries these day and time. Quality work is also hard to find too. They are on my speed dial. Great job to the guys and gals at River City Heating & Air.

The technician, John, was professional and knowledgeable. He reviewed my situation, did a diagnostic, and explained his findings to me. I appreciate him showing me the issue for my understanding. I hope any future mechanical concerns I may have going forward, I’m able to utilize River City Heating & Air/ John. They responded quickly to my request and arranged for an appointment promptly.

Danny came out to do a maintenance check . The service was excellent. He put shoe covers on before entering my house. He even changed my air filter which requires using a step ladder. I was very pleased with this company when they did the installation and the six month check up was the same. I would definitely recommend them to others.

I was very pleased with River City Heating & Air. They offered competitive prices and a very professional experience, from the consultation with Rick and the installation of a ductless mini-split system. The technicians were knowledgeable and certain to make sure we understood how to manage the system controls. I was very, very impressed and if I need any further work done, they would be my first and, hopefully, only, contact.

John was amazing - he let me know when exactly he would be showing up, was respectful of social distancing, and took the time to diligently diagnose the problem. By taking his time, he was able to find the issue that several others had missed. I really appreciate the service and would recommend this company to anyone who needs HVAC service.

River City River & Air is a reliable company; very professional and efficient. It was great doing business them. I highly recommend them to anyone. They came to my home quickly to diagnose the issues with my heater; parts were ordered immediately, and the issues were fixed within a day. I am extremely satisfied with their work and wouldnt go with anyone else. Thank you River City for a job well done. I am definitely a happy customer.

Review №24

I did not even want to give this company one star. How dare you think that this would be okay to do!?! This company has come out to our home five times at least. Our home owners warranty uses this company. Yesterday the company came out to our home to service our HVAC unit once again the repairman was out to assess why our heat was not working correctly. It was sweltering upstairs and freezing downstairs. We believe the first time the company came out the repairman must have broken off the lever to the downstairs dumper which controls the air flow downstairs. (My husband and I didnt know there was a lever there) This is the reason why the repairman that came out yesterday used a plastic fork and plastic knife on the dumper to change the air flow from upstairs to downstairs. By the way, it was freezing last night upstairs, so that was not the issue apparently. The fact that it was okay for you to leave our home after doing this is appalling and unacceptable. I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and will call on Monday to the company to make a complaint. Disgusting service!! Horrible business! This was not a joke! He used a take out plastic fork and knife on our HVAC unit. I stand by my previous review above however I do appreciate the company coming out and fixing the situation.

Ive used the team at River City Heating & Air for everything from full on installations to preventative maintenance. Ive always found them to be honest and upfront about required services and pricing. Someone that shows up on time, does a good job at a fair price and doesnt leave a mess is of value in todays times.

Review №27

John Schools was the technician who performed my semi annual inspection. He was on time, courteous, covered his shoes and very knowledgeable on explaining his inspection. I have two units and the the cost was a good value compared to inspection I have had with other companies.What I liked about John is he projected a sense of pride in his work and knowledge. I will definitely ask for him in the future.Rick..

Tremendous service, fast, polite and timely repair! We called at 4:59pm on 7/3 and had someone to our house within 1 hour!! Everyone at River City, and their business partners, went above and beyond to ensure our problem was resolved ASAP. The parts supply rep left for the day, but returned to the store well after 6:00 pm, the day before a holiday, to ensure John had the part needed to repair our AC unit. John was extremely friendly, courteous, knowledgeable, professional and willing to work after-hours until our family was taken care of. Our experiences with River City have been world-class and I will always recommend them! ***** John is the BEST!! *****

Excellent customer service! Technician explained everything as he was doing it and in a way I understood. Also, love the text feature where it alerts when your technician is arriving (you can track their distance from your house) along with a picture of your technician.

They came out and were friendly and courteous and got right to work. Every time the specialist had to walk through our home he placed protective covers over his shoes to keep our floors clean and I really appreciated that. The problem was discovered and addressed quickly and they were able to repair the unit that was malfunctioning the same day. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone for all of their heating and air needs!

Review №38

My fiance and I recently bought our first home and needed an inspection of our AC units before the brutal Richmond summer was in full swing. Our home warranty company had River City Heating & Air listed as a partner, which gave us comfort regarding accreditation and licenses etc. Our technician Bobby arrived right on time and was very friendly. As first time home buyers, his knowledge and willingness to share advice was most valuable and more than worth the service fee (not to mention topping off the freon at no extra cost).

They installed my parents’ system a few years back and the service was incredible. The job was finished quickly and very reasonably priced. I was particularly impressed that the owner made a same day service call on July 4 when there was a small issue. I can’t imagine there’s a better HVAC company in Richmond.

Al
Review №41

We’ve had multiple experiences with them before and they were fine. The past two service calls have been completely unprofessional, they seemed to belittle me because I was a young woman. The most recent experience I was questioning the man’s suggestion, because it would have costed me a lot of money, he couldn’t handle it and stormed out of the house telling us to take our business elsewhere. That’s fine by me.

Bobby was kind, knowledgeable and quick. Once the problem was diagnosed, he told us the most cost efficient way to fix the problem. We are first time home buyers and we’ve never had to handle an issue like this before, but everyone with the company was helpful and make the process as easy as possible. We will definitely recommend River City Heating & Air to friends and family in the future.

Review №44

Great company. My second purchase which includes my residence and rental property. Not only do they have great service and a timely install,they educate the buyer as to how systems communicate and work together ie gas furnance-air conditioner! That served a good purpose for a layman like myself. I called River City after bad experiences from home warranty companies who sent Jake legs out to inspect or service my equipment and failed to honor our agreements. They are local and indepently owned as I like to support Va. business. I highly reccomendRiver City Heating and Air.Dan Benn

Our upstairs AC unit was cutting in and then not operating for several hours. We called River City and they scheduled an appointment for service. John with River City arrived and asked for details regarding what we knew. He not only found the issue, then corrected it, he explained what the issue was and how to handle it if it occured in the future. He took the time to explain how both my units work and what I should expect. Great job. John is a real ambassador for his company and a stellar example for his trade.

Excellent service, showed up on time with a courtesy call before hand to let me know they were on the way. Once they arrived they did a check up on my heating system to make sure everything was working properly at a good price. Tech did not try and push or sell anything that was not needed. I will be using them for future services and recommend them to anyone.

Review №64

We had a bad experience with another company so we hired River City. I saw the great reviews and was excited to have a great company fix the A.C.! The receptionist was so friendly and helpful!! But when the technician came, he was rude and communicated poorly both times (month apart--2 different issues). He was very abrupt and disrespectful when we called to let me know he was coming soon. When I got home (he arrived before me), he did not explain to me what he had looked at or observed. He was very short with me. When he left, he softened up and was a little nicer. After he left, I received a text saying he was on the way? That happened both times.

This is a racist company if you are black or foreigner this company will write a bad comment and tell your warranty company that HVAC problem is a preexisting condition and therefore it will not be covered. No thanks to Emily, John and Jesse for their contradictory recommendations saying my unit should be replaced and telling my warranty company that its a preexisting condition. I wish there is a zero star for you

Review №77

I hate to even give one star. Jeremy was a rude tech that refused to do a leak repair if I refused to purchase 3 lbs of freon from him. I explained I can get it for $40/lb vs. the inflated price they charged. Id had it filled 5 days prior (which he did not know until after he said I was 3 lbs low), and suspected he was not being truthful. When I said no to the freon, its my belief that he attempted to drain some so he wouldnt get caught in a lie, but I sent someone outside to watch over him, which interrupted his attempt to do so. Days later, I brought in a second opinion, who confirmed I did NOT have a leak, and was NOT low on freon. I reported it to RCH&A, and they still billed for the service call. Even worse, Jeremy was training a new tech. So it appears from day one they train their techs to rip off the clients.

Review №79

Dispatch didnt give the correct price for coil cleaning. Indicated that maintenance and cleaning was the same. Then argued that a coupon couldnt be used for maintenance (even tho it said it could be). Turns out the maintenance offer of 59$ cant be used with others offers so ok but lead with that.Technician didnt appear to do anything beyond visual inspection. I dont know a lot about HVAC but he didnt appear to even look at the condensation outlet much less clean or check if it flowed. I had to negotiate just to remove the pine needles and leaves from unit.He also showed up on the phone with someone dropping f bombs. Complained that 1 small (easily moved by an adult) box and computer monitor was in his way. Also complained about my NEST and rather than asking me to turn on the AC, hit it until it worked.
