Duda Enterprises

Our two experiences with Duda Enterprises were outstanding. Dave, the owner, is thoroughly experienced, personable, punctual and offers very reasonable prices for his services. We have given his name to others and are certain they will be equally impressed and pleased!

One of the zones in my house had no heat. After looking for someone to come assess the problem, I came across Duda Enterprises and decided to give the company a try. I called and my first impression was very good. Dave picked up immediately and was very friendly. I explained the problem and they were here within an hour and a half. I honestly didn’t expect Dave to come out today, so when he said they would be here within an hour or so, I was very pleased. When they arrived, the problem was diagnosed very quickly… a bad zone valve. (I have three zones in my house and when I said I never know which is which, they marked the zones for me so if I ever have a problem again, I can easily identify what was what.) They replaced the valve and were done within 20 minutes. I have to say it was a very pleasant experience. Dave and his associate were very professional, upfront, timely, and very personable. His prices are reasonable as well. I highly recommend Duda Enterprises if you want professional, fast, efficient, and friendly service. I will definitely use them again. He gets the five stars and A’s across the board.

Called Duda Enterprises and after talking w/​owner David clarifying what the service call for no heat on an eight yr. old American Standard HVAC unit would be, usual charge is $ 100 not sure reason but for me it’d be $ 85; old enough to sniff mine fields and should’ve just gone w/​next tech right then and there but figured what the heck this guy sounds sincere besides, was getting kinda late @7pm.
After groping around for about an hour, clear indication he was just wasting time setting up for the kill comes up w/​diagnosis of faulty ignitor probe, thermocouple in layman’s terms, same temp probe that’s used on hot water heaters.
Instead of troubleshooting original probe that was and still is working only not perfectly (?) perhaps all it needed was to be slightly repositioned or have screws tightened as they do loosen up in time due to heater’s vibration, a new one he felt would be better and lo and behold there is one in the truck. Genetic $ 20 ignitor was installed and repair bill was presented for whopping $ 250. When protested that it was way too high and that the norm is to at least back out the service call of $ 85 since he did the repair, he wouldn’t have any of it, trying to convince instead that $ 250 was a reasonable charge for that service call/​repair.
Duped again, or so I felt despite the fact that have been in apt remodel/​mgt biz for about 40yrs but you know what, firm believer of what goes around comes around.
Lesson to be learned here is to do your due diligence especially in today’s world w/​internet being very powerful informative tool, compare prices and careful not to fall prey.
Needless to say, will never call Duda Enterprises ever again nor recommend them to anyone.

I’m a realtor and have referred Dave as well as used him myself. Very ethical! Completely satisfied with his responsiveness and ability.
