Michael, the technician, was outstanding in his diligence. He found an issue that existed before we bought the home nearly four years ago. He remediated the problem for us. This is consistent with the level of service we have had with Nichols Mechanical for the past 3.5 years.

Diane Martinez

I have hesitated on posting a review because I am so overwhelmed with gratitude that I've been at a loss for words. This company did for me and my family something that you hear happens to others but never to yourself. After the last couple years having HVAC issues last year our air conditioner finally stopped working completely. Along with this, issue our roof was done for, rain came into our skylights and black mold formed, our stairs were a wreck…..candid camera is what it felt like. Hales Roofing provided the first miracle for us and this incredible good deed was put on the front page of the local paper. The community began to comment and give kudos to Hales for what they did for us. This is when Nichols Mechanicals commented on the post to contact them to see how they could help. I called Adam Benites who I believe is their Sales Manager and could not believe what I was hearing. Adam spoke to the owner David Nichols and they began a plan to assist us so we did not go thru the summer with no air conditioning. Within 2 weeks we were blessed by Hales Roofing and Nichols Mechanical with the biggest essentials any homeowner needs , a roof to keep the water out, and an air conditioner to keep us cool during the summer. I was beyond in shock. The entire process from the intitial comment on the Hales post, to meeting the owner David and Adam, to the guys who came out to my house to install the unit and to Steven the Install Manager they were professional, polite, compassionate, caring, honest, and just beautiful inside and out. This is a company that I did not contact for any type of assistance that took time from their day to comment and change our life. They had no obligation, they had no pressure to have to do anything. This is the company for locals to go to for sure. This is the company to go to for the minor services as well as the big ones because just this act of kindness separates them from the rest…..I will always tell my friends, family and strangers alike that this is the company to go to for services. They did something that is unheard of and because of that I wish them huge success, big big blessings and my forever gratitude. Thank you Nichols Mechanical for your kindness.
