Its Angi and HomeAdvisor profiles list 31 years of experience and state that the business speaks Spanish. In 2021, a customer whose furnace had stopped working wrote that Joe arrived when he said he would and got the heat restored quickly on a cold November weekend night. In 2020, Joe and his son came the same day a customer called about an AC issue on a hot day, and they assessed and fixed the problem within one hour. In 2019, Joe came by at 10pm on a weeknight to service an AC when the house was at 80 degrees; he quickly diagnosed the issue, had the spare part with him and installed it. In 2018, with an AC unit dripping a lot of water, Joe troubleshot it and found a simple fix rather than a giant costly one, getting the AC up and running for under $200. In 2017, Joe Alvarez fixed a gas boiler within half an hour, had the part in his truck and showed the customer what went wrong. Also in 2017, a customer wrote that Joe and his son-in-law were thorough in solving their A/C problem, that he stopped by a week later to inspect the system before billing, and that his invoice was less than his estimate. In another 2017 review, a customer who needed a repair or replacement of the electrical board for their AC zone control wrote that Joe gave an honest price over the phone and took time in starting the work, but worked extra and off hours to get it done once told of the urgency.

Excellent! Fast, courteous, efficient service! My furnace had stopped working, and he arrived when he said he would, and got my heat restored quickly. Joe has a new customer (me) as a result of his prompt attention to my heating problem on a cold November weekend night! I highly recommend him!

Incredibly responsive! Joe came by to fix the issue I was having with my central air, he was very polite, friendly, honest and overall seemed like a very nice guy. I felt safe while he was here, he had his mask on the whole time (Covid19 times). He got the job done fast and at a great price. Very happy with my experience and have saved his number for future repairs.
Joe and his son came the same day I called with my AC issue on a hot day. They assessed and fixed the problem within one hour! Great service, reasonable prices, and nice people to do business with. We would hire again.
Joe was able to fit me in so quickly on a Sunday (and Father s Day!) and was so thorough and helpful. He got my central air back up and running so fast! And on a hot summer day, I was so thankful! I will definitely be using B&S again!
