Got the same job done for 1/3rd of the cost after seeking a second opinion, and gave it a few months to give this contractor a chance. Turns out one of the costly replacements wasn’t needed.

Reviews
Walter repaired my AC unit. There were three defective burnt out electrical components which he replaced them with brand new electrical components. He also added refrigerant & flushed out heavy dirt buildup & debris at the condensing coils. Lastly, he checked for normal cooling inside structure at supply vents with a temperature gauge which were blowing out at an average of 55 degrees. Walter was very responsive, professional, and was fully equipped with supplies to repair my AC. I highly recommend the services of Walter!
Walter was excellent from start to finish. Even before the visit, he was very responsive and detailed in his communication, which immediately gave me confidence about what to expect. When he arrived, he was on time, professional, and took the time to clearly explain the situation with my HVAC system and what needed to be done. What I appreciated most was how thorough he was. He didn’t just fix the problem and leave — he walked me through what he was doing and explained how my specific unit works. I honestly felt like I got a mini HVAC education. I started the day knowing absolutely nothing about my ‘broken’ system, and by the time he left I had learned several practical things I can do to help keep my unit running efficiently and extend its lifespan, and it was fixed! Walter came, diagnosed the issue, and fixed the problem. I wasn’t looking for the cheapest option — I was looking for fairness, honesty, and a real solution. That’s exactly what I received. His pricing was fair, his work was thorough, and he was pleasant and professional throughout the entire process. I will absolutely use Walter again for any HVAC needs and would confidently recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, fair, and trustworthy technician. AND his work came with a 90 day guarantee on the components he fixed, which put my heart at ease. Thanks again, Walter — I’m now ready for the upcoming heat waves and summer!
Walter is a great guy! He was prompt to come by and fix our broken heater when it was freezing inside. Patient, reasonably priced, and professional. I'll call on him again next time there's an issue with our heating.
Walter knows his craft! He was very professional. He explained the situation thoroughly to me and my wife, and then retrieved and installed the necessary part. And he accomplished all of it for a very fair price, which was less than what we were expecting. Now our heater works great. I give Walter my highest recommendation!
I can’t say enough about Walter! He was quick to get in touch with us AND was available at 7 AM the very next morning of our emergency. We have a busy vacation rental and we were desperate to get assistance to our guests when the unit failed to heat. Walter to the rescue!! Not only did he repair the issue, but it was also very reasonable loan cost, and I couldn’t be more grateful for his honest work and fair prices let alone his punctuality!! Thank you, again Walter!
Had help me root cause the problem and had given me knowledge on how to properly use the heater
I had a great experience working with HVAC Holiday Repairs. Walter was knowledgeable, professional, and prompt—everything you’d hope for when dealing with a home repair. He quickly diagnosed and fixed the issue with our house heater, did exactly what he promised, and stood behind the quality of his work. What really stood out was how he took the time to explain what caused the problem and even walked me through how to investigate it if it ever happens again, including sharing a helpful video. I really appreciated his thoroughness and commitment to making sure I understood the fix. Highly recommend
I will tell anyone that Walter is your HVAC guy! His prices are the best around. His knowledge and core value of wanting to fix your problem vs being paid too is a rare quality! He also shares his knowledge to help you be more knowledgeable again a rare quality! Hiring him is like having a friend come over and do some work for you! You won’t be disappointed Thank you Walter!
The installation process was seamless. The HVAC technician arrived on time, was professional, and took the time to explain each step of the installation. Highly Recommend!
Walter was fast quick to respond was very professional no his job and was very helpful. It was a pleasure working with them.
I couldn’t be more pleased about my decision to choose Walter at HVAC Holiday Repairs for the repair of our furnace that was shutting itself off several times a day. He texted and called me immediately after I inquired, and set up an appointment for the following morning. But first he gave me some suggestions of things to troubleshoot, and they worked! I was able to cancel the appointment, and he wouldn’t take any money for the help he offered. I will certainly keep Walter’s name and number handy for future troubles. He is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend his services.
Walter knows his job! It only took him an hour to solve the problem. I love how he charges by hourly rate+ parts. Clear price breakdown! I will hire him again!
Walter was amazing. Not only did he resolve my issue, he educated me on preventative maintenance to avoid future problems. He also saved 10s of thousands of dollars. Great work!
Walter helped fix our property's HVAC condenser that had an electrical burnout - he replaced the contactor, booster, capacitor and was efficient in getting the job done. Our tenant was happy which makes us happy overall with Walter's efficient and effective communication. Thanks for your help!
Walter was great. He was able to diagnose the problems from my last HVAC contractor quickly and outline what had to be done to fix the issue without charging too much.
The good part is that Walter was available same day and the AC is working at the moment. Getting Walter paid was trickier. Although Walter advertises that he can be paid by check, he declined to provide me name and address to receive a check. The Venmo account provided was not associated with Walter's phone number -- so if you send money to it, you have no proof that you actually paid Walter. It took 3 hrs of my time to solve for getting Walter paid. In the end, he provided me a Cashtag through the Thumbtack messages, so I had the trail that he was OK paying him to this account, and I was able to pay him instantly. During this 3 hrs, I received unpleasant threatening texts, which were not appreciated. Best practices would be to have payment made with a Venmo or Cash App account that is associated with your phone number. Otherwise the Sender risks sending money without proof that Walter has been paid. Walter does not install complete AC units -- he does repairs only -- so was unable to tell me if my unit was at end of life -- worth repairing -- or if I should replace the unit.
Walter solved my issues and gave me confidence in my system as a homeowner. I installed my thermostats incorrectly and was about to be out of cooling during the hot summer. When I inquired with Walter about my problem he was able to spot diagnose the potential cause and was able to come help me on the same day. On top of fixing my issues he also gave me a detailed tour of my system, showing pictures and explained to me the work that was done. He was very courteous, understanding of our two loud barking puppies, and we even had an enjoyable in-depth conversation about what I should do for Heat/Cool System maintenance. In the end, I had cooling back, my thermostats installed and more knowledge of my home system. A great experience with Walter.
Walter , Walter, and ,,Walter! I love it that he works like a Profesional. He is the one you want to give a call and let him know what's wrong and he will come to you to get the work done in timely manner. His pricing is competitive and he understands the cost. He explains well and he know the job. If you have not find your account regarding HVAC, please have Walter in your contact list. I wish he was my brother or husband! ( I mean it in good ways) Such an awesome person and Profesional to work with him. Thank you again.
Working with Walter was an excellent experience. He called, ask a few questions and had fair diagnose of the problem. He arrived on time, run a test and fix my heater without a problem. He was professional and knowledgeable. Will definitely call him again.
