What reviewers report — the concerns
Other directories bury these. We think you should read them before you call. Every concern below comes from the reviews it cites.
Red flag
Upfront $379 pre-payment for a part replacement that did not fix the reported issue; customer felt misled about the diagnosis.
“I trusted them and paid $478 in total ( $99 for the visit + $379 advance payment o replace the pressure switch for next visit ). After they left, the HVAC system was working, blowing hot air but doesn't take break when indoor temperature reaches thermostat”
Red flag
Multiple Yelp reviews in the sample appear to be for an unrelated restaurant (Fountain Grill) — review collection or scraping integrity issue worth flagging.
Cited in 4 of the 100 reviews we analyzed.
Cleanup can be inconsistent — one 4-star reviewer specifically docked a star for incomplete cleanup.
“The only reason I didn’t give a full 5 stars is because the cleanup could have been a bit more thorough, but I’d definitely call them again.”
$478 charged upfront on an HVAC pressure-switch repair that allegedly didn't resolve the underlying problem.
“I trusted them and paid $478 in total ( $99 for the visit + $379 advance payment o replace the pressure switch for next visit ). After they left, the HVAC system was working, blowing hot air but doesn't take break when indoor temperature reaches thermostat”

The evidence — in reviewers' own words
Critical

They observed the code 31 or 13 flashing on the carrier HVAC and told me it’s the pressure switch that is faulty. Since they claimed they were licensed and experienced technician I trusted them and paid $478 in total ( $99 for the visit + $379 advance payment o replace …”
“Not a good experience. First time and ordered fettuccine chicken it was cold. The place was clean but food was good. Added garlic bread it was over cooked. The last straw was I had a $50 Fountain Grill gift card bought in April but the waiter said he could get it to work.were his words which I paid but not worth going back. Beware of getting any gift cards from them.”
Positive
“We received quotes from a lot of HVAC companies and ultimately used Clover. Ryan did an awesome job at helping us figure out the issue with our Furnace - blower motor and inducer was bad. Since the unit was so old (20 years old) we went ahead and replaced that. We noticed major corrosion on our water heater and I asked them about fixing the dryer exhaust pipes in the wall because somehow that was crushed. Long …”
“I called 6 different businesses in my area for quotes to have my broken and leaking water heater replaced. Clover hands down had the best value AND the best customer service experience! I was blown away! While most companies charge for a quote or require a technician visit, Clover offered me a free, no-hassle quote over the phone by simply sending a few pictures (which they offer for certain services). I initially …”
