What customers say

Customers praise prompt, thorough assessments, quick problem identification and clear explanations. A homeowner appreciated being notified when a service window ran late; in a separate water-heater visit, the customer described the replacement quote as high and also noted the company’s apples-to-apples quote-match offer.

Customer Reviews

Scott Myers

Tim was prompt and thorough in his assessment of my boiler issue and gave me helpful information on the needed replacement. While the issues were greater than originally thought, he didn't try to upsell or do more than was needed. Appreciate the affordable diagnostic price, which was 3 times less than some other companies.

Second time in 2 months I've used them. They ran late for my scheduled service window and called to let me know which I appreciated. Once they arrived they quickly identified the problem, consulted me about recommended solution and got my approval before proceeding. Went into house and verified heat was coming out in the vents. Quick and efficient service. Would recommend and will use again when the need arises.

John Owens Services provided us a very competitive quote for a new furnace. Alex came to our house the same day we contacted them and provided a straightforward quote. I was left with a very positive impression of the company. Ultimately we chose another company, but we will definitely consider John Owens Services for any future work.
