Jacqueline Corey

Thank you so much for fixing my AC they came out the same day price was very reasonable.

Cara Long

We have a new home with a Trane AC which has broken down twice already. So much for "You can't stop a Trane!" We called Nichols out and they got us up and running asap. He is also going to work to get our warranty to pay us back. Very professional and courteous as well as attentive to our calls. Thank you for your great help! Cara

Diana Luton

Steven Minton

Great service and attention to detail I had Nichols install a HVAC system at my house and their price was the most competitive and they gave me a 10 year labor and equipment warranty I definitely know who I'm calling the next time I need and service done!!!!

Jenn B.

I needed various repairs done. I dealt with electrical, plumbing, and HVAC repair people. Everything was completed to my satisfaction and in a timely manner.

John David Herman

Look up the definition of PROFESSIONAL. You will see this, “Someone who has all the hassles, obstacles and disappointing frustrations that everyone else has, YET continues to persist, does the job, and makes it look EASY.” along with a photo of Justin Sheppard, Lead Plumbing Tech. May 2026 was our second call for service in 2 years at our weekend cabin half-way to Flagstaff in Oak Creek Canyon. Without our being there he arrived on the next business day to use a snake to remove debris in the toilet line, but that didn’t solve the problem entirely. Air kept bubbling up. The 30-year-old toilet had to go. Justin and I exchanged texts, as I described what I did and did not want as a new toilet —in what is a small bathroom in a small cabin. He returned the next day with a new toilet that he figured would be just what I wanted. It was. Nevertheless the problem persisted: Air bubbles from shower, sinks and toilet. He returned the next day and analyzed the problem as being air in the waste line —solved by hosing into the vents on the roof and using an electric septic line drain cleaner from the clean-out trap just above the septic tank. Voila. Problem solved. Roots as well as pine needles and leaves that fall into the air vents on the roof. The next step is mine: screens covering the 2 vents.

OK, David helped us even when he really didn’t have to because we got caught him on a day off and he was fantastic and I know that his work must be good just as well

Rick & Sheri Sperry

Justin arrived when scheduled, assessed the situation, and executed the project.

Kim Cooney
