Our old rental hot water heater burst, which left us with a bit of a flood and no hot water. We phoned around to the big box retailers to purchase and install a new hot water tank. The install dates were anything from 7 to 14 days wait. I phone Hamco, and they sent a rep that afternoon to estimate the job. The install was completed next day in 2 hours. Excellent service and competitive price. Highly recommend.

They misdiagnosed issue with my HVAC , it was just an issue with a valve but they mentioned it was issue with the board and valve. They ordered board from manufacturer which is very costly by itself and installed it in my unit , it got damaged in 2 weeks , they brought another board from manufacturer as new one they brought is in waranty. After this change my HVAC used to stop working abruptly and this happened multiple times over span of 3 months even after HAMCO's tech multiple visits. But when I contacted different contractor he was able to use the original board that came with my HVAC unit without any issues. It is running fine with original board now. Now I wanted to return the board they ordered but they wont take it or provide me a Purchase Order for that board. I called them multiple times requesting to return the board or provide me with PO but they did not provide it. They mentioned their service manager would call back to me but that did not happen.I see same reviews from other people as well

This company was highly recommended but we are very disappointed.Substandard service was provided by to 2 inept technicians,First technician misdiagnosed the problem on our air-exchange system and ordered a costly part (control board). The new control board not only did not fix the problem but created a new problem.Second technician, who was to correct the problem free of charge, was unfamiliar with the system. After trouble shooting for approx. 2 hours unsuccessfully he ordered additional unnecessary parts and left disconnected wires and the control board exposed.After I enquired about an update, the dispatcher was going to schedule the technician to install the ordered parts at a cost of an additional $300.00 plus. This I refused andrequested to speak with the service manager and was promised a call back. That was over 2 weeks ago and I am still waiting.I refuse any further service from this company.Note: the actual problem was a faulty cable to one of the wall control switches.

Well I waited a while to write a review til it got "REAL cold". I have to say the HEAT PUMP/AC PUMP we had installed in the summer did an outstanding job dealing with the entire attic area with ease. It was so comfortable up there (when it was like 40+ degrees outside on those heat wave stretches we had here in old DUNDAS) we just wanted to be up there more often, also noticed the air was very comfortable and clear. Not too dry or humid, kinda just perfect.Our house was built in 1903, pretty typical Edwardian style, long, skinny and REALLY tall. Attic open from front to back of house.NOW that its COLD, prior to this HEAT PUMP install, our attic was an ice box. Tough to enjoy, NOT A PROBLEM NOW THOUGH !!! The heat in there is excellent!! It's just quietly keeping us at 24 degrees or so. The outside unit is so quiet I have to lean into it make sure we are running. Incredible really!! HYDRO bills do not show huge increases. I think we are quite similar in historical billing actually, be being more efficient in other areas. Ii.e. weekend laundry only (OFF PEAK), less fancy lights out back no one really looks at too much.The installer crew were in/out in about 7 hours. Great crew!!"ANDREW" was spectacular from start to finish with his knowledge, confidence and professionalism. I had 3 or 4 discussions with hvac folks, and clearly ANDREW knew the job better then the rest, so we signed with HAMCO!Thx folks, I've recommended you several times.B

Just had a ductless AC installed. Starting from the sales representative Andrew to the technicians who installed the unit, Ainslea, Shemar, Nick and Tony, we couldnt be happier with the service we received from start to finish. Professional, friendly and efficient, it was a pleasure having them in my home. Hard working bunch and will definitely be referring this company in the future. Thank you Hamco for the amazing job!

I would highly recommend Hamco Heating and Cooling Ltd. We had used their services to maintain our old furnace however when we woke up with no heat one morning, we were very worried. The technician came without two hours. Unfortunately, it was time to replaced the very old furnace and Bill came right away to next day to give us a quote on a new furnace. Our installation took place the following day and our installers Justin and Nick did an amazing job and were very professional. Thank you to the whole team for caring and making sure we were not left out in the cold for very long.

We have been working with HAMCO in Hamilton, ON for over 15 years, to install a high efficiency boiler and a water heater. They have always provided top quality, reliable service. Recently we installed a heat pump in our house (which is almost 100 years old and has hot water heating). We installed 4 heating/cooling units, one on each floor operated by one large condenser to reduce our carbon footprint and hopefully reduce our gas bill. The installation team of 4 eneregtic young technicians (Veronika, Najim, Josh and Nick) were a delight to work with. They were effciient, fast and completely dedicated. They made sure everything was done to a perfection despite cold weather outside. Thanks very much to them and we recommend them higly to anyone who is considering a heat pump installation.

Two technicians ( Najum and Shamar) installed a new gas furnace and hot water tank on a rush basis since my old one failed. They worked well and solved a few install issues quickly. They tidied up afterwards and explained any questions I had thoughtfully and politely. Easy for me to recommend these gents and Hamco.

I purchased my first furnace in 2009 It was a good experience. Justine & Shemar just installed my 2nd furnace today. They were fast, reliable and got my heat on quickly.I highly recommend this company!👍👍

Very positive experience working with Hamco for our Daikin ductless system. Andrew was very informative and detailed in explaining the best heating solution for our sun room. Murray and the team were fantastic and consulted with us during every step of the installation process. The job was unique and challenging, but it was completed professionally and on time. Couldn't be happier with the results!

Recently had our Furnace replaced after it was deemed too expensive to replace a fan whose cost was the equivalent of 50% of a furnace. Veronika and Rick installed our new furnace updating specs that had changed. Excellent job all round our second furnace from Hamco

We had a good experience with HamCo for our AC replacement, that we contacted them again regarding our furnace! We thought we could get a couple more years from the furnace but it too needed to be replaced. Again it was another quick turn around from our initial call to Laura, quotes with Bill, and to install with a great team of technicians.

Our experience using Hamco to install our air source heat pump last year was great. Andrew is very consistent in his messaging about the pros and cons of the new system and the quote that he put into place at the beginning of the process remained unchanged, despite some changes in the overall plan. From our experience, Hamco seems to be running an honest operation that cares about customer satisfaction. We are happy customers.

Had a 1T ductless Daikin Heat Pump installed to help heating & cooling in our Durand 1890's brownstone. They've attended to the needs of this house through a number of owners and many many years.From the professional (and free) sales call from Andrew to the great install team of Veronica, Josh and Corey I can highly recommend this local company to you.

My Parents have been using Hamco since the late 80’s. We are completely satisfied with the on going excellence with all the service. The techs are professional and persistent in solving our heating and cooling issues.So much so we purchased a hot water heater we had no idea they did that but the tech advised us on the type and size we needed. That was also an excellent install. I’m not really a google review type but when it’s good you need to tell others.Give Hamco a try I know you will not be disappointed.

I’m a GC that hired Hamco to install the HVAC system in one of our commercial units. The team at Hamco did a spectacular job.The consultation with Jordan was very easy. He redesigned the entire system to a more affordable solution for the clients.The installers did such a great job on site.I highly recommend using this company for your HVAC needs.

HAMCO did an exceptional job installing both my York AC and my York furnace. Bill gave me several options and helped me figure out what made sense for my home. It was a very positive experience working with Andrew, Bill and the installers. They also did a great job rerouting the ductwork in my basement. (I can now walk around without hitting my head.) I recommend HAMCO highly.

We had an excellent experience with Hamco. Our 41 year old boiler up and died on us just about 2 weeks ago and Nolan and Christian were able to diagnose the issue. Based on their feedback, we decided to switch over to a heat pump with mini splits and they put us in touch with the sales dept. Andrew immediately gave us a call and helped us decide on the right mini split system. The main installers, Veronika and Reese were great and very efficient. They went above and beyond making the installation process painless. Overall, I'm impressed with the service from start to finish and the professionalism of Hamco.

Our house was doing basement renovation, there’s lots of work because of new room reorganizing. Veronika, Lyie, Rees are very professional and detail driven, they are not only installed the new pipes according to code, also they changed wrong pipes which done by previous house owner, it avoided potential fire, keep our house safe. Highly recommend HAMCO, wondering an old company since 1946, how they can maintain the high quality service level. They are amazing

I first contacted Hamco due to a CO leak in the house that the gas company said was caused by the furnace. Upon investigation, Nolan determined it was the Water Heater and that I'd need to work with Reliance for that since I rented from them. He was very courteous and helpful in letting me know of the options available to me, and I was very happy dealing with him.After two separate Reliance techs did nothing and said it wasn't the heater, and 3 more instances of the CO alarm going off over a couple weeks, I contacted Hamco to look at buying a heater outright and having them install it. Laura was extremely helpful and kind, and I was able to get everything organized through her, including the Reliance cancellation.On installation day, the two installers were friendly, courteous, and put in effort to keep everything tidy as they went. They also took the old heater and returned it to Reliance on our behalf.It's been months now with zero problems or CO leaks. Of 4 different technicians that came to investigate the leak, only Nolan from Hamco got it right. I will happily use them again.

Very happy with Andrew at Hamco with oil furnace conversion to heat pump. Lots of options out there, but Hamco proved superior not only in terms of price, but assistance with design, selection, and installation. Andrew even helped guide us through the grants process, which was an important factor in our decision to convert to a heat pump. Works even better than we imagined and have already started enjoying the energy savings and lower carbon footprint. Thanks Andrew!

I had HAMCO install a heat pump water heater and perform furnace maintenance a week ago. In both cases, the employees were extremely professional, friendly, and courteous. They were on time, to the minute, and provided updates as well as easy to understand explanations of the work they were doing. There were no surprises. The sales rep was very friendly and never pressured me. Office staff were flexible when it came to scheduling the work. Great experience with both jobs.
