Leipart Heating and Cooling

My A/​C went out early Friday morning, called the office and they were at my house within an hour, fixed the problem with the easiest and most cost effective solution, didn’t try to sell anything I didn’t need, and was extremely friendly and courteous. Not only do I recommend their services but they are my go to company from now on as long as I live in the Chicago area.

Awesome service. Would defiantly recommend and already did to a neighbor. One tech was tied up at a long job so a guy who lives close by came out and put his personal plans on hold. Was close to the end of the day. Was so very greatful. Will always call them first and recommend for anyone’s needs!

After our a/​c stopped blowing cool air, we didn’t want to use the same company we used a couple of years back. They charged too much and we weren’t pleased with their service. i came on to here and saw Leipart. We didn’t feel it was an emergency so we were willing to wait more than a few days but it got hot and we couldn’t wait too long. They came out the next day at the time they said they would. Service was fast and friendly and very reasonable priced. I will use them again.

My husband and I had been looking to replace our old AC and furnace for a couple of years now. Since the units were still both operational, we had the time to scrutinize over several companies. We met with a lot of people and received several price quotes. I had such a good experience with this company, I just wanted to write a review because I know how hard it is to find a contractor you can trust these days. And reading Unilocal helped us.
This spring we called Leipart H&C. I left a message, and Jim called me back a few minutes later. He came out that day and my husband and I explained what we needed done. He gave us several options and a very competitive price quote. Like so many of us nowadays, we are on a budget and wanted to get the most for our dollar. But, I also know that you could spend a lot of money on name brands and it won’t mean a thing, unless you have quality technicians installing the equipment. Jim and his team, Brent and Bryant (spelling?) came to our house on time, 9 am. They were very courteous, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. If my husband and I had questions, they were happy to explain what they were doing and why. I asked them when they were going to stop and eat, all three said the same thing, «When the job is done».
They left our house quite late that day. They put in a new AC, furnace, replaced duct work, configure new duct work, vacuumed and cleaned all duct work, fixed a leaking sum pump, installed an Aprilaire 5000 and a smart thermostat. We are so happy with everything (esp. my husband who now loves to control the new thermostat with his phone). It was a pleasure meeting Jim and his team. And, they didn’t eat until the job was done!

Great customer service from this company! After trying several companies with no return phone call, I tried CJ Heating and Air because I saw the good reviews on Unilocal.Not only did the owner answer my call on the first try, he was willing to come out the same day even though it was after normal working hours. He fixed the problem quickly, and thoroughly explained what the problem was and how to prevent it in the future. For any future heating and air problems, I will definitely use this company again!

I clearly have bad luck… as a homeowner for a little over a year, it has become pretty obvious to me that I should have invested in new homeowner insurance. First my a/​c went, the next week my refrigerator, and of course during the first snowfall of 2015 my furnace decides to die.
When I left for the gym on Saturday it was a warm 69 degrees in my house, two hours later, I arrived home to a chilly 63 degrees. I head over to the thermostat to turn up the heat because clearly that is the problem… but when it didn’t kick on I knew I was in trouble. So at 5:45 on a Saturday night, I got on Unilocal to see who could fix my furnace and do it quickly!
I came upon CJ Heating & A/​C Repair who claimed to be a 24hr business, so I made the call. I was actually shocked that a gentleman answered and promptly scheduled a time to come out and look at my problem yet that night. At around 9:15pm Dave arrived and saved the day. Dave, who is the most over educated repair person I have ever met, located the problem, my M igniter, in about 2min. He had the part on his truck and was able to make the swap out quickly. In less than 35min, I had heat again and was able to enjoy the rest of the night.
These guys are legit. They really are a 24hr business and will respond to the call as promptly as possible. I feel beyond lucky to have found them. Thanks guys!

Top notch service from this crew. The service charge was reasonable and I was given additional advice on how to ensure my furnace’s useful life is maximized. Considering this was my first time using this new furnace unit, the advice and thoroughness in their service was greatly appreciated.

Great experience. Our air conditioner went out, 95 degree day, late in the day on Saturday. Jim the owner, picked up the phone, when I described the problem, he said he may have a tech in the area to stop by. Called me back, said his tech was already on the way to another customer, but said that he would be out personally to repair.
Jim went through the diagnoses, turned out just to be the condenser, repaired, cleaned up the unit, and topped off the refrigerant.
Very professional knowledgeable, and responsive. These guys are the first one to call when you have heating/​air problems.

A surprisingly great experience. We just moved in and learned that every time the ac kicked on it was spraying water to the point that our basement had an in or 2 of standing water in the surrounding area. Being new homeowners we did not know if sump pump or water heater were also problematic. Instead of taking me for a ride and suggesting I replace it all, he explained that both were older but very much in working order and no need to worry about them yet. The ac turned out to be a blockage in the pvc pipe and was an easy fix that didn’t end up costing me a fortune. He also schooled me on where filter should be inserted and what size to purchase. He checked out the rest of unit and added coolant all for reasonable price as well. Will use this company again and again due to the up front honesty and friendly personality of the owner. Great guy and great work for a great price.

Great customer service!!! Jim was at my house in 30 minutes after calling on a Friday night.
He was honest, explained everything thoroughly and did not try to sell me a new AC system or services I didn’t need.
He checked my unit, added some refrigerant and didn’t even charge me a service fee!!! I would hire them again in a heartbeat for any service they provide.

I RECOMMEND!!! I looked them up on Unilocal and they definitely lived up to the hype. There was a terrible storm on it’s way and Brent came out, looked at my air conditioning unit, gave us some options and because the gentleman had to leave and come back he did not charge a service fee stating that he should have been prepared. He was very honest and offered to take off the amount paid for our services if we purchased a new unit within a year, which is documented on the invoice. I will be calling them in the future for sure.

The serviceman tried really hard to get my old unit going. He spent 2 hours and showed me what he was looking at and the parts that were bad. He also called for help to try other solutions. I was impressed. I will call them again. The price was very fair.

This company was recommended to me via my homeowner’s Facebook group page. I had a 22-​year-​old (still operational) sump pump replaced, which they told me should be in the Smithsonian. I think it may have been the oldest working unit they’d seen. But make no mistake, it was disintegrating and I was super lucky not to have it fail before I got it replaced. The guys did a phenomenal job of explaining things to me and the job was done in under 45 minutes. This company will be my go-​to plumbers from now on. I guarantee it won’t be another 22 years before I have this sump pump replaced.

Great customer service! I called C&J after trying another HVAC service whose techs were very rude and acted like I was bothering them for calling. C&J came out within an hour found the problem and fixed it. Price was very reasonable very friendly technician I would highly recommend them and will use them for future services. The tech that came out to the house called back later to make sure the heating was working, great people to deal with.

Just had this company come out for a clean and check. I have to admit I’m very impressed. They checked everything in the furnace then explained why certain things had to be looked at.
Since calling for the appointment to when they left my home, they have been very honest. Some companies charge you for things you don’t need but the two guys that showed up, Jim and Brent have educated me on a few things and saved me money.
My homeowner knowledge is a little sharper now. I will be calling these guys again for projects on my to do list.

We have used C&J a few times now. I must say they are awesome to work with. Always prompt, courteous and hard working. I really believe they want the best for their customers.
Our sump pump went out today and they rushed out got to work right away and had it running in about forty five minutes. I highly recommend them and will never use anyone else but C&J.

I highly recommend C & J Services! They are honest people to work with. Earlier in the winter when it was one of the coldest days I had called another company to come out do a furnace check and clean. To make a long story short they told me my 20 yr. old furnace was unsafe and that it needed to be replaced asap. Scaring the heck out of me we ALMOST purchased a very expensive furnace from them to be installed the next day, but something didn’t sit well with me and I decided to call C & J who came out an hour later and assured me my furnace was not unsafe, explained what was going on and gave us a very reasonable quote at our request for when we were ready to replace ours. We got through the coldest part of the winter and called them to come and install the new furnace, they were quick and efficient, so quick that our home never got cold during the installation process!
The new furnace has been wonderful and has already saved us money. Just today Jim came out to investigate a gas smell I reported in our furnace room… He took such care to check every line and connection of the water heater and all the gas lines and it turned out to be a very small leak near a existing valve that he took care of at no charge. I wish every company would model C&J services.

Had a nightmare experience with another company so I called this company based on the positive Unilocal reviews. They came out and fixed the heater that the other company had just abandoned and told me I had to wait for the new parts to come in (at this point I had waited over two weeks). Well after they left the heater was still acting up so he came out not once but twice to make sure the problem was taken care of. I would highly recommend this company and will be calling them again when in need.

I would give this company 6 stars if I could. My husband and I knew we would be needing a new water heater in the near future and called C & J Plumbing Service because of the good reviews. We were impressed with his honesty and they happened to be running a special so we made an appointment. They were prompt and did an excellent job! The water heater was in worse shape than we thought! I am so glad I called this company and will call them for future heating and air needs as well. Finally someone we can trust!!!

During what felt like the hottest week of the year, the AC in our new house developed a leak and couldn’t be used. We attempted to deal with our warranty company’s HVAC contractor and after going without AC for 10 days I took matters into my own hands to get it fixed
I called Jim who agreed to meet me at my house after work within 4 hours of the call! Jim immediately diagnosed the issue as a clogged pipe* and identified the completely blocked pipe. Within fifteen minutes had the problem fixed and the house was cooling off!
Jim was wonderful to deal with. He took the time to explain the problem as well as how to avoid it in the future. On top of all of that his prices were amazingly reasonable.
I would highly recommend Jim in the future for anyone with HVAC or plumping issues!
* The warranty company’s contractor failed to look for a clogged pipe and erroneously diagnosed it as a rusted pan which required a new evaporator coil since they are all one unit.

My A/​C Capacitor was blown and the fan stopped spinning. I called these guys once again, and they got the whole repair done in less than 30 minutes. Jim is the shizzle.
As for that $ 150? I wrote him the check in a heart beat.

C&J plumbing are the BEST!!! I am so skeptical of contractors as I like most of you have been burned in the past or are worried about being burned. I was in a bad spot with my sub pump today with no time to compare prices etc. I looked at the Unilocal reviews and gave C&J a call he literally shot over here because it was raining so bad and he didn’t want my basement to flood. 1 hour later I had a new sub pump instaled. He was professional, friendly, clean, fast, and super informative. When he left I still called around to see what it would cost to get that exact brand installed today and I was shocked at what most places told me. Every palace was at least $ 100 more than what he charged two places were almost $ 400 more and none of them could come out till at the earliest tomorrow unless I paid even more. Thank you Jim and C&J plumbing! Its nice to see there are still honest contractors out there.

Just got off the phone with Jim, the owner, who walked me through a sump issue in our basement when our washer was on. We haven’t had any plumbing issues before, so I was super nervous about what was about to happen. Thankfully, he was able to walk me through a few steps over the phone and saved us at least $ 150 because he ended up not having to even come out. He was super nice and I will absolutely call him again, should we have any more issues.

Jim came at midnight to save us from a leaking sump pump line. While here he also noticed that the furnace wasn’t working correctly. Fixed everything better than it was before it broke. Extremely knowledgeable about his area and a wonderful human being. Even gave us electricity advice. Will definitely call him again for plumbing, furnace and air conditioning work.

Our boiler went out in the middle of winter. C&J came out immediately with a new unit based upon our space requirements. Removed our old 62 year old unit, hailed away, and installed a new energy efficient model. Service was very efficient and professional. Our house was treated like it was their own. Great job!!! Great price!!!

Great Plumber! Shows up fast in an emergency and gets the job done right! I would highly recommend!
