My furnace decides to go out when it's zero degrees on a Saturday. I call Cork's and they find the part for my 20 year old furnace. Gil shows up and I'm back in business 30 minutes after he arrives. Can't ask for more than that!!!

never checked the furnace for other problems that could cause the problem and told me to lower the gas valve if the problem persists a highly dangerous thing to do

Needed 2 bathroom faucets replaced. Dave came out, was prompt, personable, knowledgeable and professional. Very neat. Was appreciative that we emptied out the vanities and gave him room to work. We've used Cork's several times - replaced toilets, our water heater... Very reasonable and they do excellent work! Save yourself some time Googling and collecting estimates, just call Cork's!

Came out to fix a code 33 on my furnace, overheating. changed the limit switch that took about a hour, never checked the furnace for other problems that could cause the problem and told me to lower the gas valve if the problem persists a highly dangerous thing to do then took the old part to resell to someone else that was in working order. $263.00 bill. Never again Corks
