Highly Recommend Them
Ronald J. Downs provides high quality major household equipment services. Technicians are knowledgeable and dependable. Highly recommend them.
Professional and friendly every time
We have been with Roland J. Down for many years. They service our heating and cooling, and provide plumbing services. We have had them install 2 major systems in our home, as well as routine maintenance and repair over the years. Our most recent experiences were with Jeff and Jett, who installed a new kitchen sink for us yesterday, and helped me replace my drain mat and under-sink shelving storage. They did a great job, and I was very pleased. Today, Angel came out to deliver salt for our water softener. He carried the 5 bags down to our basement, and poured the salt for us too. Angel, Jeff, and Jett were all very professional and friendly.
Nice Job!!
The technician (Mark) was friendly and professional. The belt was marginal; he went back to the office to pick up the belt and checked to make sure the unit was fully operational. Nice job!!
Spectacular service and fair pricing
Spectacular service and fair pricing. I really appreciated the professionalism that Shamel showed and how patient he was with me when explaining the work. I will absolutely use this company for plumbing needs in the future. Really happy with the service I received.
Honest and Professional Recommendation
The team from Roland J. Down makes it very convenient to schedule appointments. Michael Alvarado came at the scheduled time and thoroughly assessed our situation. He suggested we contact a well-drilling company to address our water pressure issue, and he was absolutely right. Thank you for the honest and professional recommendation.
Good experience with one-day install
Had a good experience with one-day install of heating, cooling, and hot water tank. Response time was great, technicians numerous for a big job. Have been with them for years, and appreciate the expertise and punctuality.
Very professional and knowledgeable
All the service people were very professional and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this company.
Roland J Down Is the Best and Our Go-To
My wife, daughter, and I have been homeowners for a little over a year. We have used several services in the area and found Roland J Down to be the best and our go-to. Everyone who has stepped foot in our house has been friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Mekhi is our choice as far as plumbing goes. Super friendly, down to earth, knows his trade, and even goes out of his way to say hi and give our 21-month-old a smile. Choose Roland for services and choose Mekhi for plumbing.
Oh, and their Maintenance+ Program?! You’d be crazy not to sign up. Peace of mind for my family and me as we are new homeowners.
The technicians were fantastic
The technicians were great, explained everything, were very professional, very knowledgeable, very courteous, so I would rate them a five. But as far as customer service, they quoted me the wrong amount for the service call, so I was very disappointed, because I had already budgeted out what I was going to pay, so I was taken aback by it. But as far as the technicians went, they were fantastic. I will be using this company again because I was very impressed with the technicians.
Honestly the most kind gentleman
Honestly the most kind gentleman with Jeffrey... more expensive than I had hoped, but problem solved at the end of the day!

I couldn't be more pleased
Ed, a cheerful and astute plumber, arrived at our home when scheduled, assessed what needed to be done, left briefly to pick up a part that was needed, and had us back in good order pretty quickly. Ed made sure that we understood the estimate before he began the work and that we agreed to it. He left everything tidy when he departed. I couldn't be more pleased with the work he did. Thank you, Ed, and Roland J. Downs.
Excellent workmanship
Larion was super. Clean, neat appearance, efficient, mannerly, and we would love to have him any time in our home to service our furnace and hot water heater.
Excellent workmanship. The Mitchells.

Will Definitely Be Using Their Services Again
I had some leaking from my water and waste pipe, the toilet was running, and I needed a couple spigots repaired. Angel conducted my initial assessment; he was very knowledgeable and efficient. On the day of repair, he and Hector had everything fixed and running in a decent time. I will definitely be using their services again.
Very pleased with Roland J. Down
I have only used Roland J. Down Service for a short time but am very pleased. They recently replaced my AC unit without issue in a short amount of time. I had to work and they worked independently, and I came back to everything as I left it. They even secured my dogs' safety.
Wonderful service
Wonderful service. The gentleman was very friendly and helpful, very knowledgeable, and very respectful. They arrived when they said they would, fixed the issue right away, gave short- and long-term solutions, and were very reasonably priced. Would highly recommend them.
We couldn't be more satisfied
Great! During an annual exam, Ron and Jordan discovered a problematic leak within our 18-year-old condenser. Ron said they could either trace the leak or replace the system at a time of our choosing. Justin and Walter replaced the whole system in 4.5 hours! Everyone was on time, courteous, and knowledgeable. We were very impressed and couldn't be more satisfied with the work and the product.
I remain happy with their service
Angel and his apprentice showed up in the communicated time slot and completed the maintenance work on our on-demand hot water system quickly. I remain happy with the service of Roland J. Down Service Experts.
