Review 1 (2024-07-24 - Rating: 5)
Devon has serviced my system in the past. We knew a replacement was going to happen and when my system failed (as he had warned) he quickly helped me find a solution, get financing, and then even stopped by after installation to check on the system and ensure it was working- which it is!!!!The installation itself went well too. John and Yahmond were great. They were friendly, helpful, willing to problem-solve, and got me and my housemate from huddling around a window unit to lounging in our living room fast!Very happy with Otter Guys all around. -

Michael did a great job in regards to my HVAC maintenance. He was exceptionally thorough in explaining certain aspects of the system that affect its efficiency. I was also made aware of some things to keep an eye on down the road as the system is more than 10 years old. This was my second very positive experience with The Otter Guys. The first was plumbing related (D and Jesus were very professional and courteous). This company sees the big picture in doing great work and establishing connections with their customers. The combination of their expertise and customer service is outstanding. I highly recommend! -

Being new to the area, I was looking for someone who had years of experience and covered my new home. I also wanted the reliability of having someone do annual checks on my plumbing and heating. I was not disappointed by the otter guys. From Stephanies assistance and setting everything up to Lees and Chriss assistance on the ground, it was a great experience. Lee has tremendous knowledge, expertise and professionalism. Chris is diligent and brings some tech savvy to apply to the work they do. They showed up on time. Kept me informed throughout the checks and repairs and walked me through any information they presented. I feel confident having the Otter Guys as my heating, cooling and plumbing team. -

The Otter Guys Techs (Lee and Devin) are beyond amazing. Each time they come out to service our homes they spend countless time to address the issue and are very thorough. They are so patient and answer all of the tons of questions my husband and I have. Today they both came and discussed options for an AC/heat change to our new home and were as always wonderful. Please give these two guys a raise! They are awesome. Highly recommend the Otter Guys. -

Devin C. was on time and completed a thorough diagnostic followed by suggesting multiple courses of action (from temporary fixes to full replacement) in order to improve the performance of our systems. I personally appreciated his advice on a couple flex line repairs i wanted to make myself. I’m sure the whole team at Otter Guys is great, but we will specifically ask for Devin when scheduling our hvac repairs. -

The Otter Guys were great! I love that they send a photo and some info about the technician so you know who to expect on your doorstep. Devin & Mike did a very thorough job cleaning and inspecting my HVAC system for winter. And they gave a thorough explanation of what they did and additional maintenence I could choose to do (or not!) Very impressed. Thank you! -

The Otter Guys did a great job installing our new water heater. Chris was our technician. He is knowledgeable, prompt and personable. I highly recommend this company. -
Review 13 (2024-11-11 - Rating: 5)
We had a problem with our heat exchanger just as the colder weather is arriving. Michael determined the problem, got repair parts ordered, explained everything to us and promises to come back to do necessary repairs quickly. He worked hard and found that the problem wasnt as deep as originally thought, which helps in completing the repairs and not running up a big cost. We are very happy with his work as we have been with Otter Guys and its predecessor for the past 10 years. -
Review 14 (2024-07-29 - Rating: 5)
We are very happy with the service that Michael provided. The team was able to come out the very next day, and he went above and beyond with the information that he shared with us. He explained that he didn’t have one part on his truck, but he was able to stop by their shop and he came back the very next day to install it. Our ac unit is working beautifully now! We were also very happy with his exceptional work, professionalism, and knowledge of the system that we have. -

We’ve found Devin and Otter Guys to be very helpful and honest with their service. Devin’s a very personable guy, explains things in detail, and is very up front about everything. Not only is communication excellent, you’ll even get a text with a photo of the technician you can expect, which pleased me very much. Prices are on par with averages. I did not have any hesitation whatsoever picking them to upgrade our system, and the service is way faster than I expected. Five stars so far! -

Devin is great as always. They are kind, clean, responsive, and show clear proof in easy to understand terms for everything.Also, Stephanie at the office is fantastic, grateful for her help.This is a service, and it costs money without a doubt so when reading this review dont expect them to be cheap, they are definitely value priced and do what they can but when you do pay for service they will make sure its done well and they stick to what they promise, even a year or so after.If you need a reliable HVAC / plumbing company dont look any further. -

The Otter Guys were prompt and responsive to my weekend online inquiry and we had a service call scheduled by that same evening. Aaron was really great to deal with in taking my call, listening to the issue and getting me scheduled. Appointment confirmations are sent via mobile with details and contact info. Prior to my scheduled appt they sent a text with a photo and background information on the specific tech they were sending including their area of expertise and years of experience , which was awesome! My tech Lee, was super efficient, friendly, and thorough. He had the issue diagnosed and fixed within minutes. I had also requested an estimate for a few plumbing issues and a hot water heat replacement. I received quotes on all of them before Lee even left my house. I’m am very impressed by Lee’s professionalism and expertise and highly recommend The Otter Guys! -

Chris and The Otter Guys team did a great job in replacing my main water line that was leaking from the water meter at the street to my house. They were courteous, professional, flexible and responsive. They even hauled away excess shrubs, gravel and pavement that had to be removed as part of the repair. The reinforced my main water line with a higher level poly pipe and put it in a protective pipe shield so this would not happen again. Great job! -
Review 19 (2024-10-22 - Rating: 5)
Our water heater broke and needed replacing. Lee was open and honest with what was required and we had a new water heater installed in less than 24 hours after the initial visit. I will definitely be using Otter Guys again and would recommend them to everyone. -
Review 20 (2024-09-12 - Rating: 5)
Overall, we have had a great experience with the Otter Guys. Before having work done, we got three quotes for the work needed, and The Otter Guys price estimate was unbeatable. We had a full HVAC replacement and ductwork added/modified in our home. They were courteous, efficient, and communicative during the whole process, and they have been great with follow up maintenance/tune-ups. We would definitely recommend their services to others. -

I have to admit this one of the best companies in Waynesboro to work with. I had my air conditioner leak in my basement, so I need their service. They responded immediately. They sent Michael A. Out to do the repair, and he is awesome. He talked to me like a person, he was very professional and kind and not only did he fix my problem he offered up ways to prevent future problems. I would definitely recommend them. -
Review 22 (2024-07-15 - Rating: 5)
Team was experienced and helpful. Compared to contractors we have used in the past, The Otter Guys and their technicians seemed to actually care about resolving the root cause of the issue as opposed to band-aiding a solution.Working with Devin was great. Not only did he have a clear in-depth knowledge of the subject, but he also offered clear explanations for both the problem as well as the solution, and he completed the work in a timely manner.We will definitely be using The Otter Guys moving forward for all of our AC maintenance! -
Review 23 (2024-07-14 - Rating: 5)
Our AC went out on a Saturday afternoon and we thought we were in trouble. However, Devin saved the day! He was at our house within 90 minutes of our original call for help. He was polite, professional, and great with our animals. He had the AC working within 45 minutes of arriving and walked us through maintenance routines to keep our AC running smoothly. He went over everything with us and took the time to explain everything. I cannot recommend him enough! Thank you Devin!!! -

Review 27 (2024-11-21 - Rating: 5)
I was first made aware of Otter Guys was their trucks. They replaced some terlets (Archie Bunker Toilets) and a kitchen faucet. During the installation Jesse or his partner overheard a concern regarding a piece of the install. Unbeknown to us, they contacted headquarters and Terrence and Travis both came out and straightened it out immediately. I was a miscommunication on our part. We now have a plumbing company!!! Tanx! -
Review 28 (2024-06-20 - Rating: 5)
Michael showed up on time, was very personable and professional. He was honest about the condition of our HVAC system. We ended up buying the service plan and he explained the benefits of it very well but didn’t force anything on us. I would definitely recommend The Otter Guys to anyone! -
Review 29 (2024-07-08 - Rating: 5)
The Otter guys service men that came to my home to repair and then replace my heat pump unit were awesome. They came out soon after I called. They were all polite, professional and kind. I need our unit to work for company coming the week of Fourth of July. They recharge the Freon appropriately knowing exactly which type our unit needed to work and then came back within a week to replace the worn out unit. The replacement took most of the day but did their work efficiently and to perfection. Each one cleaned up any mess and explained what they did and how to use the new system. Thank you so much! -

Our technician Devon is superior in terms of his work ethic, diligence and his patience in thoroughly explaining what needs to be done, what options we have and he gave us a feeling of real concern to meet our needs. Thank you!Matthew and his crew came to install the new HVAC system and repair the decades old duct work in the tight crawlspace under our condo to ensure the new cooling air reached us. They were working in the intense heat to make sure we would be comfortable for years to come. Matthew listened and readdressed an issue I had with two of the air registers that werent blowing as hard as the others after the installation was done. He and his crew went back under the house (not an enjoyable feat in the heat and humidity) and identified the problem and corrected the issue to bring those registers back to their full former working glory. Matthew and his crew were very courteous, worked really well together to ensure that we were totally satisfied with the job before leaving us. The Otter Guys really earn their stellar reputation through their spectacular Technicians. Thank you so very much!! -

I called The Otter Guys at 10 AM regarding a failed A/C system. Lee & his helper were at my door in less than 2 Hours, diagnosed the problem and had me up and running in 30 minutes. Note they needed to use a 40 foot ladder to reach the system. Lee was professional, and kept me informed of the repairs while working. A great person who works for a great company! -

The Otter Guys, Stephanie, and Lee have been great. They were able to come out within 24hrs of our AC being down in the heat of the summer. Lee talked through what was happening, what was fixed, and how much life we should have left in our unit. -
Review 35 (2024-11-20 - Rating: 5)
Great job, replaced my mini-splits with new and better quality units. Did the work efficiently even though they originally ordered a unit that was too big for pipes. A smaller unit came 2 days later, and was installed. All in all I’m happy. -

I made a call on the weekend to discuss the assessment of an HVAC leak and was able to determine a weekday appointment was doable. I received daily text updates to reassure me that my appointment was on schedule. Michael arrived on time and was knowledgeable, sharing his information in an easy to understand way. He provided the why and how of my concern and was able to resolve my issue the same day. This positive experience has provided confidence that they may be the experts I need for my future basement renovation hvac and plumbing needs. Call The Otter Guys if you need friendly prompt and experienced service. -

Lee from the Otter Guys was thorough and very knowledgeable. He took an extensive look at our system and addressed all our concerns. He told us what needed to be done to get it right, but most importantly he understood that we had a limited budget as first time home buyers— and so he let us know what we could do to get by until we had the means to fix it all at once. Overall, we appreciated his time and expertise. We would recommend him and this company to others. -

The service itself was 5 stars but when you add Mr. Alvarez, they deserve 10 stars plus. We were pleasantly surprised with Mr. Alvarez who traveled quite a distance to get to us at a time of need. Our A/C went out on July 4th. We have a toddler, 2 elderly adults, 3 dogs, and 4 of us remaining. He was honest, energetic, helpful, knowledgeable, and resourceful. Thank you Mr. Alvarez, you made our day. We 💯 recommend The Otter Guys. -

Michael and Aaron at The Otter Guys saved the day when our HVAC system unexpectedly went out during a heat wave! Aaron helped us get service within 24 hours, and Michael spent over 4 hours at our house researching the problem and offering us options that fit our needs and budget. They offered fast, friendly service without upselling. Thanks, Otter Guys!UPDATE: The Otter Guys did an excellent job with our subsequent HVAC installation. They took their time installing the new unit and making sure everything was perfect, including teaching us the new interface. They left their workspace spotless when they finished. Well be using The Otter Guys from now on! -

As a result of his stellar service at the initial service call we decided to move forward with them to replace our AC unit. Will update review post -AC unit install. So far im very impressed with the professionalism of The Otter Guys.UPDATE POST INSTALL:The crew crushed it. Arrived exactly on time. Was courteous, professional and thorough. ZERO issues.

Exceptional Service from Lee G - A Lifesaver in a Chilly Situation!Recently, we encountered a worrisome issue when our homes temperature dropped to a brisk 60°F, a serious concern as I care for my elderly grandfather. To make matters more challenging, our electric bills skyrocketed, reaching over $500.In stepped Lee G, a true professional and a ray of hope in our chilly predicament. His prompt assessment of our heat pump was both insightful and thorough, showcasing his deep knowledge and expertise. Lees friendly and approachable demeanor was a breath of warm air, providing clarity and comfort in a stressful time.I am profoundly grateful for Lees trustworthiness and exceptional service. His visit was not just a professional call; it was a critical step in ensuring our homes warmth and safety. Now, Ive just got to figure out how to foot the bill – but with Lees help, at least I know it will be money well spent. A huge thank you to Lee for his invaluable assistance. Highly recommended for anyone in need of expert, reliable HVAC advice! -

Otterguys have been wonderful; the last two times I’ve had plumbing issues, they’ve been able to come out within a day or so. They’ve been able to identify and fix the problem very quickly, and I appreciate their professionalism. Jason has helped me twice and he is wonderful to work with. They worked hard and earn five stars from me -

We had recently purchased a house at Wintergreen and had several issues regarding HVAC and plumbing we wanted to have looked at from the home inspection. Called the Otter Guys after seeing good reviews and appointment was promptly set up. Lee arrived on time and went through all of our issues, patiently explaining the mini split systems that we have in the house (our first experience with this type of system), and set up an appointment to clean our units. We felt extremely comfortable with Lee and his expertise and candor, and we will certainly be utilizing The Otter Guys in the future. -

My well pump died without warning. Otter guys was one of many companies I called but they were the only ones to call me back. They were able to schedule a visit to assess the job the next day.He showed up on time, was polite to my 3 y/o who was very curious about the process. He diagnosed the well pump as needing replaced.A crew was scheduled to do the replacement work. They also showed up on time and with all the required materials. They got right to work. And it was a lot of work! They worked a full 8 hours.My water pressure has never been this good!

I had these guys come in and check out an HVAC system I was having some issues with. I had already had another company come in and do an analysis and recommendation, but this was big enough to get a second opinion.Not only did this guy nail the issue, but he went much further than the other company in researching warranties and coming up with a solid quote for the work.This guy did a thorough analysis, provided rock solid advice and did it for a VERY fair price. -

I was totally impressed with the Otter Guys. They were responsive and communicative throughout the entire process. I especially liked that prior to the visit, they send a text with a picture of the technician they are sending out that gives you a little background on their training, experience and even personal interests so when you open the door it’s not like your letting a complete stranger into your house. My Otter Guy was Lee who came out with an associate. They were friendly, professional and really took their time with my questions and troubleshooting the situation. One of the things that impressed me the most was that they arrived within minutes of the 2 hour window Iwas given. I love the purple and turquoise company colors and will definitely use this company again for both plumbing and HVAC. -

The computerized reminder system works well for the customers but the working team was late to the agreed upon appointment time and did not call to tell us. We had to call them.

Super impressed with the technicians. They immediately knew what to check and what the root cause of the problem was on our gas furnace. Diagnostics was A++ !However, replacement part ordering was a bit slow and on the higher expense side. Given how cold it was going to get tonite, it was a shame that they didnt have any stock for parts and had to externally source with longer lead time. -

I am so grateful that Lee came to look at our AC unit at the end of the day on a Monday! When your AC goes out late in the afternoon on a day when it’s 90 degrees and your a busy mom of four (the youngest of whom is 3 weeks old!) you panic. Lee arrived quickly and was such a nice guy. He identified the issue quickly and had our unit back up an running in no time. It was very obvious that he loves what he does and offered sound advice and he even gave me coloring books to give to my kiddos. I’m just so thankful. -

But I will use this company in the future even after everything that happened because they stood behind it ,they stood for something. We reached the resolution. I would trust them to do jobs here again.. I recommend them. Good people Good job absolutely great at backing what they do... They truly work at keeping their reputation good. Sometimes, when things do go wrong, Its how they handle it afterwards and they handled it really well ,stood by their commitment to the consumer to do the best they can and they did.. Its rare to find.. hats off to the president for reaching out and helping resolve. Thats integrity -

The Otter Guys helped us with water heater installation, plumbing repair/repiping, and HVAC maintenance for our newly bought home. First of all, their service is great! When I found a leak and called them for help, Aaron was able to find his crew to come to my home in just an hour. It turned out that a larger section of our plumbing was problematic and needed some repiping. I greatly appreciate that Aaron was able to fit this job into their tight schedule so that we could have the plumbing issues resolved before we moved in. Lee, Devin, and others did a great job! Today, Devin came and serviced our heat pumps. Devin identified a problem in one of the units and helped us fix the problem at no extra cost. Im also super impressed by the detailed reports. Overall, highly recommend! -

I have used JLK for numerous projects since I purchased my 125+ year old house in a historic district 5 months ago. They have been professional, courteous, knowledgeable and accommodating with my schedule all along. This business operates professionally with customer service being a top priority. I trust their workmanship and can count on things being done right and on time. I have nothing but positive things to say about JLK. -

Dealing with a family crisis at the time not only did Michael take the utmost care to make sure I was getting what I needed he was courteous, respectful, and professional. I’ve felt with many companies over the year with my work and they have found a repeat customer for life with me. -

Travis, Alex and the rest of the crew over at JLK are probably the best technicians i have dealt with in a long time; courteous, responsive, you name it. Im a new customer who had issues with an old water heater, they tried to come out the same day, but their distributor was closed, so they came out first thing in the morning the next day exactly when they said they would and had the new water in and running in about an hour. Cant say enough good things about them, highly recommend JLK! -

I highly recommend The Otter Guys. Jan.22, 23 Otter Guys (Devin & John) installed a new HVAC system in my house. They did a beautiful job both inside & outside my house. I couldnt ask for better men to handle this big job. Give Otter Guys a call next time you need any heating & air, plumbing...jobs done for you. I respect Otter Guys. -

JLK is the gold standard and Travis has been our go-to guy. He’s maintained and repaired both our AC units over the years. When one of the units finally failed, he replaced it in a very efficient manner. He’s replaced and repaired our thermostat as well as our hot water heater. He’s reliable, experienced, and very professional. Thank you for all of your help! -

Lee was fabulous to work with and a very kind individual. He was upfront and honest about the costs, not pushing it or doing it and giving us the bill after, which I appreciated. I will definitely use them again. -

Lee as always did a great job and is super pleasant to work with. We have been with the company for years and have continued to ask for Lee because of his knowledge and experience. He will explain everything and answer questions, I have always felt comfortable in whatever Lee has suggested to be done and in knowing it will be done correctly. Thank you, Lee, for your service and being not a 5 star but 6-star employee. -

8/22 Lee is great. Had plumbing problem which caused water all over the office kitchen floor. Came and fixed it immediately. I can always count on them. 2013-2022: We have been using them for years for the yearly back flow inspection and whenever we have had a plumbing issue. They are the best and reasonably priced. I highly recommend them.
