I Know a Guy is the heating and cooling shop people call for furnaces, boilers, burners, oil-furnace service, and water heaters in New Hampshire. Google identifies it as an HVAC contractor, while BuildZoom lists HVAC, mechanical, and sheet-metal work; the public listings do not agree on the base location, with Angi showing Nashua and Google coordinates resolving to the Lincoln/Livermore area. Customers have described both prompt help and serious service problems. In a 2024 review, a homeowner said the team handled a water-heater problem that arose during an annual cleaning and called the service friendly and professional; older reviews describe furnace servicing, burner repair, oil-furnace work, and hot-water-heater replacement. A January 2026 customer, however, said calls and emails about a heating-system repair went unanswered and left the home without heat, while June 2025 and April 2025 reviews raised delayed communication, overcharging, an unresolved refund, and unsafe or incomplete boiler work. Before booking, ask who will perform the work, what licensing applies, and how callbacks are handled. BuildZoom reports that New Hampshire HVAC/mechanical license MBE2001224 expired on September 20, 2022; that directory claim should be checked against the current state status. This is a fit for heating and cooling service when the scope and responsible technician are clear. Confirm the service address, current license status, written price, and callback terms before authorizing work; the Angi profile's handyman, fence, landscaping, and sprinkler descriptions should not be assumed to describe the same operation.
Would not return my calls or emails for a heating system repair. Left me with no heat for the winter. Will not do business with them
Very responsive, pleasant and reasonably priced!
Due to delayed communications even after sending follow up, I would not recommend. In addition to overcharging then waiting for refund check.
I bought a new boiler.They didn’t purge the system. The circular ran for a couple of hours, then I knew there wasn’t water in the system. I fixed it myself. They black tape the thermostat wire to a hot pipe.A wire nut was left inside the top of the boiler. I lifted the top off to remove it.I also cleaned the floor that had water on it. I had a cooler on the other side of a wall that was dumped over. The off and on switch, one screw was half in. The junction box above the furnace had one screw in it and wires hanging out of the other side.I call them but they didn’t call back.
Great service that was recommended by Ryme's. Gentleman showed up on time and serviced my furnace in a timely professional manner. Price for the service was fair in my opinion.
