# Forest Hills HVAC **Trade:** HVAC / Heating & Cooling · **Address:** 37 Bexley Rd, Roslindale, MA 02131, USA · **Phone:** (617) 398-0660 · **Website:** https://www.foresthillshvac.com/ · **Languages:** English **Rating: 3.9/5** (medium confidence) — from 28 reviews across 5 sources. 96% of sentiment-scored reviews read net-positive. Last 6 months: 7 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Forest Hills HVAC is a Roslindale, MA-based HVAC contractor that says it's been serving the community since 2012, working across heating and cooling installation, repair, and maintenance for both homes and light-industrial customers; its website also mentions some home remodeling and tiling work on the side. The reviews, spanning 2022 through this year, describe a technician-led operation where David — and, in several reviews, Bob and Jose — do the actual explaining and fixing. A 2026 review said a technician spent hours servicing seven mini-split units and two condensers, going noticeably deeper than the prior maintenance company had; another, from earlier in 2026, described two long-neglected wall AC units cleaned and repositioned in a couple of hours. Weekend and short-notice response comes up often: a 2022 review said Forest Hills was the only company that could help on a busy weekend, and a 2023 review described a Sunday call answered with a technician at the door first thing Monday. On pricing, a 2023 review specifically called it more reasonable than 'sky high' competitors. One clear miss stands out: a 2023 review said the company let its technician take payment through CashApp, then refused a refund request because the payment wasn't made by credit card. For HVAC installation, repair, or mini-split maintenance in the Roslindale area, this reads as a small, technician-driven operation with consistent, detailed praise — just settle on a payment method and get terms in writing before paying. **Strengths:** - Thorough mini-split service — went deeper than the prior maintenance company - Weekend availability — helped when other companies couldn't - Fast turnaround — Sunday call, technician at the door Monday - Reasonable pricing — undercut competitors' sky-high quotes, per one review **Concerns:** - CashApp payment dispute — refund refused for not paying by card ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Says it has operated since 2012, serving Roslindale for over 13 years, per its website _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://www.foresthillshvac.com) — “Company history (self-reported): Operating since 2012, serving the Roslindale community for over 13 years.” - Its website describes it as a residential and industrial HVAC contractor also offering some home remodeling and tiling services _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](https://www.foresthillshvac.com) — “Forest Hills HVAC is a Roslindale, MA-based residential and industrial HVAC contractor offering heating and cooling installation, repair, an…” - A 2026 review said a technician spent extended time servicing seven mini-split units and two condensers, going noticeably deeper than prior maintenance _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUQ3bVBhU0tBEAE!2m1!1s0x0:0xd7aef1bcbaa26ffa!3m1!1s2@1:CIHM0ogKEICAgID7mPaSKA%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ David did a great job clearing out clogged drains on mini splits and servicing all 7 units and 2 condensers.
