      Had Carini Heating **************************** come out and quote us to replace electric panel and all outlets and switches. Signed the quote returned it with the deposit. We scheduled the work for Monday the 18th of Dec. two men showed up to do the work. When they showed up at the door, they said we are here to do the panel correct. I said the panel and all the switches and outlets. They then proceeded to tell me that there was a problem, they said the person that originally had done the quote had been fired, and that they had been quoting the wrong amount. They then discussed that it would be double or more to complete the job. We said we have assigned contract that tells the scope of work and how much is going to be. The work had been scheduled on 12/13,. They had plenty of time to call us prior to the day of install to let us know that there was a problem. They should have stood by their word and done the work for what they quoted us I've never heard of any kind of sham as this, they called their superior and the manager told them that they were not going to stand by the quote. This is outrageous. I think it is called bait and switch.

      We have received outstanding service from Carini, heating air and plumbing. Carini installed two new heating and air units in our home in 2017 and then every year they come to do maintenance every six months. Because of their excellent maintenance the units are running smoothly. I want to particularly think ****, the Carini maintenance service engineer, for doing such a great job this July 2023. We highly recommend Carini heating air and plumbing.
