Kalka Plumbing Air Conditioning and Heating

This review is both for Kalka Air, and Brandon, the service technician who came to our home.

First, let me give the review some context - our home is serviced by two separate air conditioning units. On the Friday before Labor Day at 5:30 p.m., when it had been over 100 degrees for at least 2 straight weeks, BOTH of our air conditioners broke down. We have two toddlers under 3 years old. The temperature inside the home was unbearable, and down right unsafe for two babies. After spending a sleepless Friday night in total misery, we took the kids to a hotel.

Kalka Air was the ONLY company who returned my calls. I left messages with half a dozen HVAC companies in the area, including our home warranty company, and NO ONE got back to me that weekend except Kalka. On top of that, they sent a service technician out on Sunday morning. Did I mention this was Labor Day weekend???

Not only did Kalka come to the rescue for our family on a holiday weekend when literally no other company even gave me a call-back, but to boot, the service technician Brandon (I’m sorry, I don’t remember his last name) was the most thoughtful and empathetic technician I’ve ever met. He spent the time to explain everything he was doing, step-by-step, he was extremely patient (especially with my 2 year old son who kept handing Brandon his little tikes tools in an attempt to help the situation), and he stuck around to answer all of our questions after fixing BOTH air conditioning units.

Even though this review is a little late, I want to make sure that I give a GIANT thank you (and 5 star review) to both Kalka Air and their service technician Brandon, because they were the heros of the summer for our family. I highly recommend them to anyone who’s in need of HVAC work in Orange County. I definitely plan on using them in the future!

Our AC went down on a Saturday and we were referred by a friend. Not only did Kalka Heating and Air show up on time (same day), they were able to fix our AC at a very competitive and reasonable rate. I highly recommend Kalka Heating and Air! Thanks for all you do guys!

Kevin is nothing but a seasoned professional. Extremely responsive, always willing to explain and walk the homeowner through what’s happening. It’s clear he has years of experience. Glad to have selected Kevin and his team over others and will use them in the future.

Installed new kitchen faucet and garage disposal and replaced all of the pipes that were corroded and /or leaking under sink.
This is the fourth time I have used Kalka’ s technician Sara for various services and as always have had a very positive experience.

Ryan came fixed our problem took care of us!
Kamran Did a fantastic job with both our HVAC and our dryer vents! Very professional fast and top notch!

Didn't pass inspection multiple times. The preventive maintenance program was a scam never returned . I spent $180 to receive a service I never got. Tried to sell me things for my air conditioning that I didn't need had an actual reputable company come afterwards to check my air conditioning they said nothing was wrong..

I Called office and was seen same day! Sara the plumber , was excellent!!! She was Professional, prompt and kind. As always , Kalka Plumbing was the best! Thank you so much,

Kim

Best plumbing service we’ve EVER had! Sarah was very thorough, professional, upfront about costs & gave options. She went ‘above& beyond’ the call of duty for us & we truly appreciate it!

They arrived at 8:56 am right as scheduled and left my home after 11 pm that night. Yes that is correct, the Kalka team that came to my home worked a 14 hour day to give my home a complete new heating & A/C system, including duct work and the full shebang!

At first there was two technicians, then three, then four, and finally a fifth arrived. There might have been more but I lost track! They worked fast, they worked hard, they worked cleanly and diligently. But most importantly the Kalka Heating & Air team was knowledgeable, skilled, and did the job as a master craftsman would only do.

The team was polite, the team was care full, the team cleaned before they set in for the job and cleaned again upon completion - even after an exhausting 14 hour day! My home was respected – I never felt that things would go lost, be broken, or stolen. So much so by dinnertime I left the army of busy Kalka workers unattended as I went out to dinner with the wife. Heck they even smelled good!

Edil - thank you for taking the time to explain everything and listen to my concerns. From the start your knowledge was clear and it helped me feel comfortable with what was to happen next.
Quang - thank you for answering my questions and quelling my fears about the old aluminum wiring we have in my home.
Jose, Rae, and Terrence – Thank you for your detail and care. Even when you were filthy from working in my old dirty attic you took great steps not to get my home dirty.
Robert – Thank you. You are the creator of my new air condition system. And the reason I went with Kalka.

Kalka Heating & Air Conditioning, I wanted to close by saying I received many bids for my new heat/ac system. Yours was not only the best - beating out such others are Home Depot’s (outrageously expensive) and Costco’s estimate – but I never expected a crew as knowledgeable, courteous, and polite. From the initial sales visit with Robert and his follow up calls, to the direction of the team under Edil’s command, and how Quang, Jose, Rae, and Terrence executed Edil’s requests. Everyone’s knowledge and craftsmanship, care and cleanliness… I could never have envisioned an install going so well, but I actually can refer to my install as fun!

Peter is a very courteous and knowledgeabe technician. He fixed the problem and provided us a maintenance solution. We are very happy with his work. He is a keeper.
Jennifer is also a great helper. She is able to schedule us with a skillful technician to repair our air condition unit. We got cool air in the HOT day now. Thank you Jonathan
