“It has an office on E Greenway Rd in Scottsdale, BBB lists it as A+ rated and accredited since 2010 (in business since 2009), its own site shows ROC 252603, two directories show a 5.0 Google rating from about 765 to 786 reviews, and I found no complaints.”
“It has a Scottsdale office at 8989 E Via Linda, lists ROC 328617, is BBB A+ accredited since 2020, says it has served the Valley since 1982, and has about a 4.8 to 4.9 rating from roughly 540 to 635+ Google reviews in directories, though Birdeye shows two serious complaints (a $12k water-damage dispute and a repair that broke the AC) that the company disputed.”
“It is a Marine Corps veteran-owned company based in Scottsdale with ROC 261627, BBB A+ accredited since 2010, says it uses no commissioned salespeople, and has a 5-star average on 66 CustomerLobby reviews, though that is far fewer reviews than the two picks above.”
“It is Scottsdale-based, founded in 1983, and has about 2,345 Google reviews at 4.8 per VouchedPros, but it scores only 3.8 on Yelp (207 reviews) and 4.4 on Angi (79 reviews), where some reviews accuse it of upselling or misdiagnosing.”
“It dates to 1947, is BBB A+ accredited since 2012, and claims ROC 337821, but its listed offices are now in Tempe and Phoenix, a private-equity-backed group bought it in 2021, and BuildZoom shows several older licenses as inactive or cancelled.”
“It is based in Tempe with an East Valley focus, and its numbers conflict between sources (Pendium shows 4.7 from 2,790 Google reviews while VouchedPros shows 5.0 from 335+).”
“It is in Scottsdale and BBB A+ accredited, but only since 2023, and I found no review-volume data to judge it on.”
“The only thing I saw was a comparison-table line from VouchedPros in search results (4.9 from 135+ Google reviews, 17+ years, BBB A+), which is too little evidence to recommend it.”
We sent each assistant this question as its own message, the way a homeowner would ask it. It searched the web and read business sites on its own. Each answer shows which assistant and version answered and when. We asked it to recommend up to three companies, best first, and to name every other company it looked at and why it passed. Reasons are quoted as given. Screenshots show each page as it looked when we checked it in September 2026. We ask again every month and keep every answer.
