## The honest read

A 2026 customer said Cranney Home Services replaced an aging gas water tank with a heat-pump/electric hybrid, restoring hot water less than 48 hours after the problem first appeared. In that 2026 account, Marco and Zach explained repair and replacement options, measured the basement space and coordinated the electrical work. A 2026 customer praised Jonathan and Brandon's explanations and workmanship on a new shower, while describing Cranney as expensive.

A 2026 customer said Anthony diagnosed a central-air issue, Paul supplied an estimate, and Jeff and electrician Brian got everything running before leaving. A 2026 customer praised Pat C's toilet replacement. A 2023 customer said electrician Alex replaced an outdoor motion-detector light, identified its breaker and removed the old fixture and box.

A 2022 customer said a plumber destroyed a new shower surround and an electrician never followed up about a part that needed ordering. A 2022 customer reported paying $420 for a heater repair that did not fix the problem, followed by a $350 invoice to order a different part. That 2022 customer said they ordered the part themselves and screwed it in. A 2023 customer alleged that items were missing after an inspection and that the hot-water tank had been turned down by 10 degrees. An account also criticized furnace servicing and Cranney's response. A customer complained about appointment cancellations after confirmation.

**Strengths:**
- Water tank replacement — a 2026 customer reported hot water within 48 hours
- A toilet replacement — a 2026 customer praised Pat C's work
- An outdoor light — a 2023 customer said Alex replaced it

**Concerns:**
- Shower surround damage — a 2022 customer blamed the plumber
- An unsuccessful repair — a 2022 customer reported paying $420 without a fix
- Inspection concerns — a 2023 customer alleged missing items afterward
- Appointment cancellations — a customer complained about cancellation after confirmation
