Chanin Mechanical

I wish there was a NO STAR rating.
The worst company I have ever dealt with in The Miami Beach area. They installed a new a/​c unit 3 years ago after the quick talking owner told me that he installed most of the a/​c units in the beach area. It has been leaking in my condo ceiling the entire time. Although I signed up for the twice yearly service, that service person had no knowledge about leaks and merely emptied out the overflow pan each time.
There is a roof top pool above my unit and when the owner FINALLY came to check the unit and saw the condition of the ceiling and the cabinets one year ago, he was rude and abrasive to the point of being a bully. He was about to storm out of my unit until my friend talked him into taking a look inside of the ceiling. He then exclaimed that it was NOT the a/​c unit and everything was dry BUT the position of the unit in the ceiling could be changed because my building was built on a slant. (The prior a/​c did not leak) The company cancelled the appointment with me for that service 3 times to make the repair and no longer renewed my twice yearly contract.
To make this zero star review shorter, this week I had the cabinets and the damaged ceiling removed. All of the damage is indeed from the a/​c unit.
The total cost to me is over $ 8,000 for repairs to the condo and an honest a/​c company to fix the installation problem. Not to mention the bad karma I have with the HOA and every single management person in my condo association wanting them to fix the pool, sprinkling system and every other water source in the building because I was told by the «expert owner» that it was not the a/​c.
Chanin Mechanical is a company that does not stand by their work and the owner has no concern when a problem arises. Their mechanics are always doing a job somewhere else and they cancel scheduled appointments with the little guy.

I would highly recommend this company for your air conditioning needs. Owner is the BEST. office staff very friendly and crew are very efficient knowledgeable and caring. Have dealt with other companies in the past and Chanin is the BEST! My neighbors are now using them. This company is very reliable and honest. If you want excellent service Chanin is the BEST.

Great customer experience. I received prompt service and the prices were very fair. They are an extremely reliable and honest company. I wouldn’t trust my ac to anyone else. I’ve had several bad experiences with shady ac companies in the past and the superior service I received with Chanin mechanical made me feel compelled to write my first Unilocal review.

I feel compelled to write my first Unilocal review as this company has provided me with really disappointing customer service. They came out in November to replace a digital touchscreen thermostat. They told me it was still on warranty but still charged $ 225 for labor (which i thought was steep). I promptly paid my bill. Then they came out again to check a seperate issue which never got fixed. I received an exhorbitant bill for accomplishing nothing and called to complain. They asked what i felt the visit was worth, I told them $ 100. They agreed that was acceptable and I paid them promptly. Now the thermostat is once again not working. When I called to have it resolved, they told me they will only take care of the problem if I give them my credit card upfront. They did the work, they charged me for labor and I feel it is only right that they fix it since it has been only 6 months and the exact same problem is occuring. Disappointing to say the least. Obviously, I refused to pay upfront and will instead give my business to Bostick who provided me with superior customer service the last time i used them (I intentionally didn’t use Chanin with my last unrelated problem since i think their prices are exhorbitant).
