“We had our ducts cleaned and Chris Gonzalez did a great job! He was very courteous and respectful. He explained everything thoroughly. Thank you Chris!”
“Working with HL Bowman is always a pleasure. Brett come to check our HVAC system, and although it was running well, he noticed mold spots starting to build up and dust accumulating in the duct system. He showed me both the mold and dust, explaining why and where they were growing. Brett recommended installing a UV light and cleaning the ducts in a couple of years. This is what I appreciate about HL Bowman – they educate and walk you through everything step by step. Rather than pushing unnecessary services, they recommend actions only when absolutely needed. I decided to go with the UV light to prevent mold growth and cleaning the air. Brett also helped me register the product and showed me how to install and replace it, if needed. Overall, this is the kind of customer experience you want. I feel reassured and have a peace of mind after the appointment. Thank you, Brett! Looking forward to seeing you again in the future.”
““Bret came out to service our furnace. He was professional, personable and knowledgeable. He explained everything very well and added an UV light to help get rid of mold. Great job! Thank you Bret!””
“Thank you guys sincerely for all you do. Steve Peterson was an absolutely fantastic guy, and an extremely knowledgeable technician. I would recommend his services to any homeowner. Every tech from Bowman is always timely, professional, and at the top of their respective fields. Plumbing, electrical, appliances. Best company out there. Thank you guys foe keeping our home safe and secure. – Steve”
“The service technical ( Jason ), arrived on schedule and performed "duct-cleaning" on all the ducts in my house. He was here for about 3 hrs. I believe he did a very good job. And he also voluntarily assisted me in setting-up my Wi-Fi account to regulate my thermostat. Setting up this type of account was beyond my skills. So, thanks to Jason, and to H. L. Bowman for a job will done………….keep up the good work.”
“This experience was truly a breeze all thanks to Brian P. !! He is a very friendly and down to earth individual, his knowledge and experience with appliance maintenance made my problem a super easy and quick fix. Thanks again Brian ! We will definitely be using H.L. Bowman for future service needs”
“AUSTIN WAS ON TIME AND VERY RESPECTFUL OF OUR PROPERTY. SINCE WE NEVER HAD A GEOTHERMAL SYSTEM HE WENT OVER HOW TO CHANGE FILTERS, HOW TO SET VENTS AND WHAT PROBLEMS TO WATCH FOR. ADDITIONALLY, HE CHECKED OUR WATER HEATER AND FOUND THAT IT WAS LEAKING. HE SET UP TO HAVE IT REPLACED AND TOLD US ABOUT THE WHOLE HOUSE MAINTANCE PROGRAM WHICH WE SIGNED UP FOR. THAMKS SO MUCH FOR A GREAT JOB AUSTIN!!!!”
“I have two water heater installed last year for my rental property in Bethlehem PA. My property was inspected for renewal of license and the inspector told me that the water heater was installed without permit. I called BOWMAN and been waiting for them to contact me . I sent several email to different people and still no update !”
“My kitchen sink had been draining slowly and finally stopped all together. I left messages for a plumber I'd used in the past but no response. I called HL Bowman in the afternoon and a tech was able to come the next day. Brock was very competent and took care of the blockage. He was also kind enough to put the debris in the trash can at the bottom of the drive way. Thank you!”
“First the plumber arrived at the house and was not prepared for the job at hand! Then says I have to return tomorrow morning to do the job. Said he would be there at 8 am. 11:30am he proceeds to call and cancel the appt. Meanwhile I was charged for the arrival fee the day prior even though work was not complete!!!! Never using this company again!!!!”
“FANTASTIC AND TIMELY SERVICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“I just want to ask you to stop those annoying and obnoxious radio commercials. I have to turn the radio down constantly so I don't have to hear them over and over. Please.”
“Needed to have the gas lines from the meter to inside the house replaced, as the house flippers had seen fit to use flex tubing for most of that. The plumbing tech, Mike Rogers, has done an excellent job turning our fire hazard into a working line, while being very accommodating of our cats and cluttered basement. Very pleased that it now looks like professionally installed piping instead of the mangled tubing we inherited. This is exactly why we continue to choose HL Bowman for the work we can’t do ourselves to fix this place.”
“The best
What can i say
Shelby got it done”
“Bret came out to service our furnace. He was professional, personable and knowledgeable. He explained everything very well with the whole house humidifier and added an UV light to help get rid of black mold. Thank you Bret!”
“On 01-25-2025 We had a problem with our pressure pump. Matt visited us first and diagnosed our problem. Later that day Cody came and installed a new pressure pump. Both gentlemen were a pleasure to work with. Matt checked our water and answered some questions we had. Cody did an efficient job and checked everything to make sure the pump was working correctly. All of this took place on the weekend and we were more than pleased.”
“Jack Murog installed my new furnace today as well as two Ecobee smart thermostats. He did a great job and answered all my questions. He took the time to help me set up the complicated but amazing thermostats. I can use my Alexis app to change settings on both units by talking into the thermostat. How convenient is that! Thanks Jack!”
“Nathan Gembe was very helpful in making me understand why it was time to replace my gas furnace. (Small holes in the tubes that I could see on the photos made it unsafe. ) He guided me through the different types and what unit would best fit my house and budget. Setting up a day for the installation was easy and fit my schedule.”
“I had a great experience with Troy Oyer with my repair for my furnace yesterday! No amount of snow kept him away! He was very professional and explained what he did and explained it to me in a way that I could understand. He showed me the photos he took as well. He was very kind, and we really hit it off with both being dog lovers. I hope Troy fixed my issue and wish him the best in the future!”
“Our service repair person, Alberto Garcia, was professional, informative and answered all of our questions concerning the repair problem, which was fixed to our satisfaction. He did an excellent job.”
“Thank you to my technician, Josh Grandstaff! He cleaned and checked my gas furnace and everything is functioning as expected. He worked quickly and efficiently.”
“My experience was fantastic for the most part. We had a gas line installed and a gas fireplace hooked up. The man that came was super nice and the work completed was well done. However 5 days later where the existing gas line was cut and a new line was installed I smelled a leak. When pointing this out via email to the team, they wanted to charge an additional $70 to confirm this. Any other company I have ever worked with (did the job, and made sure it was completed without charging extra to return and fix what was done especially days after the job was done) something this serious shouldn’t be pushed off. We reached out to another company to come test for a leak because they offered a free inspection.”
“H L Bowman is a professional and liable company. We had our 15 year old Hot water heater replaced and a water softener installed. Danny was here till 7 PM on 12/23/2024. He didn’t leave until everything was completed and he checked for water leaks once he was done too. He came back on Christmas Eve day to purge our new water softener and again he checked and checked again to be sure everything was working properly. We really appreciate his dedication to his profession!”
“My wife and I were very pleased that Reshawn was able to help us with our bathroom problem!”
“Brett arrived and was very personable and happy to help us with our heat pump maintenance. He walked into a household full of children and a dog, and he interacted so kindly with all of us! He walked us through each aspect of our heat pump maintenance check and provided recommendations and estimates. Thank you Brett! We look forward to seeing you again!”
“Adrian & John were awesome! Came out, accessed the issue, worked together, & got the job done! Even dealt with my animals being obnoxious, thank you guys a bunch!!”
“Anthony arrived promptly and aaas very kind. He provided recommendations for my system and answered all questions I had.”
“Had some work done on my gas water heater on 12 Dec 2024.
The bill was way too expensive for 10 minutes of work. No hot
water this morning 13 Dec 2024. Guy forgot to turn it on again
when he was done working. Another person out this morning
to adjust the pressure and of course…. Turn it back on.”
“I had my entire system replaced about a year ago. In that time I’ve experienced a constant stream of problems. I bought their top tier system, but it has performed significantly worse than the ‘failing’ system that they replaced. A lot of the problems that have come up could have been avoided if they had appropriately evaluated my house instead of making a bunch of promises in order to sell me a system that was never going to work. Super unhappy. Avoid.”
“Brett Bartley provided a routine electrical maintenance check at my home on Tuesday Dec 10. He was thorough, pleasant, provided me with recommendations (supplemented with reasons), and that resulted in me accepting a duct cleaning appt that is upcoming. Most importantly, he was nice to my dogs!”
“Brett Bartley did regular maintenance on the furnace. He was very informative and polite, going over various items with me. Great service!”
“OUTSTANDING EXPERIENCE! The folks at Drain Magic were some of the most professional technicians that I have had the pleasure to do business with. My two teams – 1) Raymond and Jordon and 2) Frenchy, Zach H, Camerin took on a rather difficult project consisting of (team one) installing a 100+ feet sewer liner under my driveway and sidewalk and (team two) hard piping around ten feet of PVC that was located under a foot of cement, a wall and a floating floor. These guys reinstalled the flooring after they finished the job, they kept the workplace clean and were happy to answer all of my questions. Overall OUTSTANDING! I highly recommend them! Thank you for your amazing work!”
“We are very impressed with the service provided by HL Bowman. Our geothermal heat pump was working fine last spring, but gave us nothing when the weather turned cold again. One contractor told us they didn't know anything about geothermal. An alleged geothermal specialist looked at the unit and todld us the compressor was burned out, the wiring was fried, and a relay had gone bad. No replacements available, he said, you need a new system. Bowman's Geo tech, Garrett, opened the unit up and showed us everything he was doing with great explanations. There was one broken wire to the contactor (relay.) He fixed the wire then tested the compressor, the relays, the pumps, the boiler boss…everything! He advised us that a 21-year-old system really could fail at any time, but for the moment it was working fine. We are grateful for his honesty, his expertise and his "bedside manor." Bowman will be our HVAC provider from now on.”
“Brett performed the annual maintenance service provided by my contract. He was quick and efficient, and made several recommendations for items that would improve the functioning of my heating system and provide comfort in my home. They were items that, in fact, we have neglected to address for some time. He worked with his manager to reduce the cost by bundling the services, providing an additional discount above my membership reduced rate. Work is scheduled to be done next week. Thanks Brett!”
“I just wanted to send a sincere thanks to Katherine, Dan, and Technician Wesley Livingston for going the extra mile to help me get heat restored to my home yesterday (Thanksgiving Sunday!) It was a huge inconvenience for them, as they were trying to enjoy time with their churches and families. Yet Wesley still came over, and got the furnace going quickly, and was a fantastic representative of Bowman's professionalism and service. I am sincerely grateful for you guys helping me during this cold snap emergency, and I'm truly sorry to have interrupted your Thanksgiving. Best company, management, and employees I've ever worked with. Thank you again, sincerely. – Steve Coffey”
“I had the pleasure of Aaron Ward visiting my home for an inspection on Nov 27th. I have never had a nicer company rep. from any company come to my house! Mr. Ward was professional, informative, outgoing, and down to Earth! Plus, to top it off, he's a military vet! He is an outstanding individual, H.L. Bowman is lucky to have him on the team!”
“Brock Paulik came to our residence for a plumbing issue. Brock was extremely courteous and professional.
He explained several options to repair the problem, gave us a quote, and fix it quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend H. L Bowman for future residential maintenance and installations.”
“I am so happy I made the decision to get a gas furnace and tear out the old oil furnace that came with the house. The two men did a fantastic job and were very informative. I highly recommend this company. They cleaned up good too.”

“I had an issue with a corroded valve and and my toilet flange so I had a couple of things that needed replaced. Mike Rogers came by, was super helpful, and fixed both issues no problem. 5/5 would recommend.”
“Christian Gelbaugh was extremely professional and knowledgeable. He dealt with a clogged kitchen sink very quickly and professionally. I would definitely use him again. Rangers lead the way!”
“I'm so glad I called you guys. I initially was supposed to have a cleaning and the technician found 3 cracks in my furnace, so needless to say, a new furnace was in the works, I was quoted a ridiculous price by one of the other companies, but Nate assured me H.L. Bowman would quote me a cheaper price, and have someone out to my home in a day, no lies he told, Bryan came and was absolutely awesome, my 3 yr old granddaughter just talked his head off n he didn't mind. They really do treat you like family, he asked about her on our return phone call. I'm starting to think she was the reason our furnace was put in so fast, just kidding, but they really do treat you like family. Thank you guys for your promptness and efficiency.”
“We needed a full replacement of the water heater , well pump and filtration systems. It took a while, but they kept diagnosing, fixing and showing up without complaint. The entire team was a pleasure to deal with. Mike R. finally solved the issue ! Thanks to Steve and his team for not giving up! I finally have drinkable water that has a constant flow and isn’t full of mud and acid!”
“Nathan Gembe came to clean our furnace. He was very professional and thorough but felt bad in having to tell us we needed a new furnace. He showed us pictures and explained the issues. He also installed our AC unit this past summer and we couldn't be more pleased. Thank you Nathan.”
“Mike R has always been exceptionally courteous and helpful! His installation today went smoothly, and we are very happy with the final product.
Thank you!”
“While i am not big into the service contract sign up thing with HVAC services, the experience was very prompt and fast to get to what was a leaking drip from my main water pressure valve! which God know how long that's been going bad, he also found my faucet in my rarely used downstairs bathroom had a slow leak! only noticeable from looking inside the vanity, which he did… he had everything in the truck for the repairs needed that afternoon, which saves so much time on everyone's end…”
“I had David Joswick out today to install my New Oil Furnace. Both David & his helper did a fantastic job. They were very thoughtful on the work & cleanup of the job. They took the time to go over the unit with me & answered all my questions. I would highly recommend H.L. Bowman for all your heating and cooling needs.”

“Paris Barker was very helpful and explained the process of maintaining the furnace with us.”
“Thank you so much 🍁Eric🍁 , you were Today's Super Hero Of The Day ,you did such great job ,I appreciate that”
“Brian and Jeremy – I tried my best to write a glowing review for Jake, David, Nick, Tyler, Mike, and Amanda, and certainly you 2 guys for everything you've done for us these past few months. Google is acting up at the moment! Nevertheless, I feel honored to have worked with your company, and to finally see a group of professionals that actually follow through on every job. I will fervently recommend H.L. Bowman to anyone I know who needs Plumbing, A/C-Heating, and electrical work. I certainly don't need anyone else to even quote! Thank you sincerely! – Steve Coffey”

“We had a very good experience with HL Bowman, Inc. Bryan Potylycki was very knowledgeable and helpful with our repair of our icemaker on our refrigerator. We were very impressed with his quality of workmanship and thoroughness. It was a pleasure to see this kind of attitude in this day and age. I know it is hard to come by. We will definitely recommend, this company to our friends. Thank you Bryan.”

“Chad was awesome, he really looked out for my best interest. Polite and curiosity abdctook the time to talk about all my options, very respectful and personable.”
“Air conditioner with a frozen refrigerant line was diagnosed with a pinhole leak that wasn't able to be found. Sprayed a leak sealant and added 1 lb of refrigerant. Total service cost $892.65. The technician, Rachel, was pleasant, informed, and responsive. The price was twice what we wanted to pay, but was similar to what we paid another company for another location a few months ago for the same service. Unfortunately HVAC companies will not provide a phone ball park estimate without visiting the site. HL Bowman waived the trip fee, and was the only company that offered to do that. For that reason, we took a chance on them, and were pleased with the service.”
“Ari Matzavas did a plumbing repair at our home this morning; Ari was both courteous and professional. Ari's knowledge base on the repair was thorough and his explanations of the work he performed were much appreciated. Hats off to Ari and H L Bowman!”
“Joey Santos worked on our tub drain (backed up) and was very polite and professional! I was very impressed by his work ethic and advice.”
“From start to finish we were completely blown away. Nick was our sales rep and I must say the best sales rep I have ever dealt with. I have over 30 years of service manager experience and can honestly say Nick is an absolute asset to this company. Will recommend to many. Our installers Ryan and Bryan also top notch. Clean, thorough and very knowledgeable. You don't find techs like this often and the company should know, they are blessed to have these 2 techs. Owner offered us a deal on our unit as we were tied up in an insurance claim that lasted 6 weeks. Hl Bowman was a huge help in getting us installed the next day. To all that were involved You Guys Rock!”
“The best plumbing experience we’ve had bundled pricing on many services. Andrew was our plumber and he fixed our bathtub leak as well as recommended getting a new toilet. The next day he came back and installed the toilet very timely manner as well as other services. Overall, great experience.”
“I have nothing but great things to say. I really like the texting to schedule. Everyone is so kind and answers right away! Glad I found this company to help me out!”
“Brandon Montufar installed a new garbage disposal and faucet, also repaired a leaky pipe. He was professional, very knowledgeable and pleasant, Brandon did a great job for me!
Mike Rogers installed a water filtration system for me and was professional, very kind and knowledgeable, another great experience. Thank You!”
“I called with an emergency as our AC did not work. They came out quickly, and when one tech had trouble with the system reset, they sent a second (George) to help and he knew exactly the procedures to get the system up and running. I appreciated their persistence to solve the problem when they could have just stopped and moved on.”
“We just had our 1st yearly maintenance check that was performed by Jacob Hoke. He arrived on time and he did call 30 mins before arrival as promised. He was very thorough and knowledgeable. After I the maintenance check, I asked him about having the vents in our home cleaned. He advised us how important it is to have this done yearly, and sent me a quote via email the same day. He provided outstanding customer service; I will be reaching out to soon to schedule that appointment with you guys.”
“Yesterday, technician Mike Rogers, performed a shower faucet repair in our guest bathroom. He arrived promptly, was courteous, and quickly completed the job. This was appreciated during a busy work day. Thank you!”
“Ignacio Ruiz was highly professional, courteous, knowledgeable, prompt and overall helpful. Bowman, Inc phone representatives were also professional and courteous. I would recommend this company and intend to use them again!”
“Our Company had a plumbing emergency – a hole in a pipe in the ceiling. HL Bowman was able to send someone very quickly, which was good since we had to turn off the main water valve and had no sink/toilet facilities. Jeremy Morris, on the first day, stopped the water to the pipe section which allowed us to have the front area sinks and bathrooms. Jeremy was extremely polite and knowledgeable about what needed to be done. He came back the second day to finish with his helper, and they wrapped it up quickly. Very quick to respond, very quick fix. Very much appreciated!!”
“Today 7/11/2024 a specialist came and fixed the problem. I hope everything will work fine now! Thank you for your promptness. My previous post can be considered closed. At the moment I recommend the company, because even if something went wrong, they keep their brand! Thank you!”
“The technician Mike Roger’s was extremely helpful and customer friendly.”
“Ed was very prompt, very knowledgeable and quickly got our air conditioner back up and running during this hot weather. We appreciate everything he did. Looking forward to working with H. L. Bowman soon in getting a new air conditioning system.”
“Insulation for line was repaired in a very timely manner.”
“I will start by saying the sales person Chad who came out to our home to give an estimate was professional, knowledgeable, and a very warm and kind person. He answered all of our questions and went above and beyond even after the initial estimate. We were back and forth on whether we could afford the service and Chad and his team did everything they could do to try to make it work for us. The receptionist Melissa was a pleasure to deal with as well. She put me at ease with her friendliness and knowledge of the business. I would highly recommend H.L Bowman.”
“Mike Rogers was on time, pleasant and professional. He did a great job on the bathroom installation.”
“The tech was very knowledgeable and gave good advice on how to avoid the problem in the future. He showed up on time, and the communication was excellent.”

“My technician was Mike. He was very detailed on what was going on with My system he actually showed me what was wrong.”
“I called HL Bowman regarding 2 plumbing issues. They were able to get me scheduled quickly. Mike Rogers arrived on time, and was incredibly professional, kind, and courteous. He talked me through the potential cause and proposed fix, as well as what to watch for in the future. Mike was fantastic and I appreciate how he answered my questions so thoughtfully and skillfully fixed the plumbing issues.”
“Appointment window 8am-4pm. Received a text at 3:59pm letting me know that they got other calls which were more important then my scheduled service asking if I would like to reschedule. Absolutely not a day off already wasted may as well stay home the rest of the night n get it over with. 6:15pm tech calls he is an hr away okay see ya in an hr he arrived at 7:07pm was very nice got the job done explained everything he did too noch tech the issue was not with him at all he just goes were the schedule office sends him so I feel the office needs to do much better”
“Bryan Potylycki was prompt and courteous, knowledgeable, and provided great service. I would definitely recommend HL Bowman services.”
“I discussed my issue with a mnager- If I had known the price for a one hour drain cleaning would be $342.00 plus the $70.00 trip fee- I would have said now. But the tech was dealing with my wife and took full advantage of her lack of knowledge. I presented my request for a reduced charge and was told they go with flat fees regardless of time spent. If I had not called – they would have left the rip fee on the bill which the manager said should have been waived if we accepted the work.. I live ina development of 220 homes. There is a neighborhood Facebook page and social media can be very powerful in alerting the community to how folks are being taken advantage. They could have been fair and revised the invoice, but chose to not do the fair and honest thing. I guess fool me once, jokes on you- fool me twice- jokes on me. I'll be sure no one is fooled.”
“Our technician was very good, BUT… How can it cost over $800 to install a new garbage disposal? It took exactly one hour from start to finish! We are very disappointed. We have used HLBowman for a new HVAC which also was rather expensive, but we felt was in the best interest of long term use. This is just crazy and we should have said NO!”
“My hat is off to this company and it's service techs. My water line to my refrigerator was leaking and the first service tech, Bryan, correctly diagnosed the issue and realized I needed a next-level plumber to handle the problem. Connor showed up several hours later, began work on the issue and stopped the leak. He came back this morning with replacement parts and fixed the problem completely in 30 minutes. I am very satisfied and will gladly recommend them. Thanks guys!”
“We called because our washing machine did not drain. Ignacio quickly identified the issue and proposed a fix. I was impressed by Ignacio's knowledge, problem solving skills, and courteous demeaner. I will certainly use HL Bowman again.”
“I come from a family of plumbers (located in Hazleton). Mike is not only a fine plumber but a fine person. He paid meticulous attention to every detail of the job and answered all of my (many) questions. Service with a smile is always much appreciated, and in this case that's exactly what we got. I'm very pleased. Bob”
“I had a technician come out to diagnose and fix a leak in my shower drain. The technician was Matt C. He was able to diagnose the issue in under 10 minutes and resolved the issue very quickly. He was friendly, polite and very knowledgeable. Overall, the experience was great and I'm happy to be an H.L. Bowman customer. They have always delivered in their services and I will use them again and again whenever anything comes up. Thank you guys!!”
“I have a maintenance contract with H. L. Bowman's for my two mini-split systems in an apartment building I own in Harrisburg. And subsequently I have semi-annual inspections and cleaning of the units every six months. For the past two visits I have had Brandon for my inspections and cleaning. He was timely, pleasant, and especially important, was very thorough in his inspection and cleaning of both the six indoor units and two out door units I have. Thank you so much Brandon for your attention to detail and assistance in helping me maintain my units!!”
“John showed up and went right to work. He explained everything that he was doing each step of the way. He didn't mind me watching and asking questions which I appreciate as a relatively new homeowner. Once the new plumbing was complete, he made sure to test everything for leaks and cleaned up. Do not hesitate to schedule work with them! A+ SERVICE”

“Clint Danner did a total furnace replacement for us. He did an awesome job and was very patient with us at a trying time. We would definitely recommend Bowman’s to any of our friends and family.”
“The technician that came out to repair my toilet was great. John went above and beyond in making sure I wasn't inconvenienced with the repair to my bathroom. Unforeseen issues were encountered, but they were clearly and professionally addressed and resolved. I wouldn't pick another repair company after this great experience!”
“Brandon Frysinger arrived promptly, and after initially thinking he could not do the job, found a way and professionally finished the job in an expert manner.”
“Mike Roger's was very knowledgeable and patient with all our questions. He did a wonderful job. Will call on him again.”

“Our plumber Blake was very professional and knowledgeable. He went the extra mile to ensure that the job was done right”
“Nicholas Ricco performed electrical service at our house on 1/4/2024. The H.L. Bowman team was contracted to replace and re-wire our breaker panel and to replace our original outside meter, along with the weather head and original cable. Nico performed superbly in bitter wind chills that day.
He was knowledgeable and friendly and was able to explain the entire process in great detail. He thoroughly answered all questions I posed.
I observed that he was very efficient, neat, and organized. He displayed great concern about doing his work carefully. It was clear that he took pride in doing his job well. And, we were satisfied with his, and and his partner's, completed work!”
“Had to have emergency service done on a Saturday afternoon. Technician Daniel Sprague responded to call quickly, assessed the problem and had repair work done accurately and efficiently. Overall, made the bad experience the best it could have been.”
“The customer service team was very helpful. Response time is quick. The schedulers worked with my schedule and sent me updates with a picture of the technician that would be arriving. The technician quickly identified the problem, reviewed the repairs needed and next steps and completed everything satisfactorily. I would recommend HL Bowman to family, friends and anyone looking for service in the central PA area.”
“On Saturday I placed a call to your company concerning the relief valve on our water heater. First of all I was impressed that someone would be able to come out the same day and within hours of my call. Brandon Montufur arrived and was very professional , knowledgeable, and friendly, and was able to answer all of our questions and concerns. He replaced the valve within a short time after arriving.For that we thank you very much. In the next couple of days I noticed that there still seemed to be more water being released through the relief valve, and called your company again. On Thurs. Matt Chubb came. Again I was impressed by Matt being punctual, years of experience, and friendly. Within a minute he knew what the problem was. The expansion tank was faulty. Matt replaced the tank in a very short time. These were my first experiences with H L Bowman Co., and I can say that my wife and I are very satisfied. Both of these individuals are an asset to your company and are very much appreciated.”
“Poor customer service, scheduling and follow through. Contacted HL Bowman early a.m. about a plumbing issue. Water coming through kitchen ceiling from upstairs bath. I was told they would be out from 9am-4pm and that they would call 30 minutes before. At 3:59pm I received a text with the technicians picture that he was on his way. 30 seconds later I received a text from the office stating they are trying to reach me in regard to my appt. I called them and was told that the technician would not come out until they confirm with the customer. I told them about the text from the tech and that I was not contacted any other way. After 10 minutes I was told they would try to reach the tech but he might not be available. I waited until 4:30 and called again and was told he was on the way. Th tech was nice and thorough. He didn't have all of the parts needed and they would return this morning between 7:30 and 8am. At 8:45am I called the office only to find I am not on the schedule. This is frustrating. I had similar issues with my HVAC service with HL Bowman.”
“Josh Grandstaff was excellent and explained everything to us-great service!”
“Efficient scheduling with on time arrival. Chris is incredibly knowledgeable and a real professional. Thoroughly inspected our plumbing failure and explained clearly what was needed. Would recommend HLBOWMAN anytime. Thank you.”
“Mike Rogers was great he was very friendly and professional. His work was top notch. He had both our problems fixed the same day and in a timely manner thanks again Mike.”
“Have used H.L.Bowman twice within the last two weeks.They installed a new toilet and a hand held shower haed, and did the annual maintenance on my gas furnace.. Both of the techs, Joe Santos and Hunter did outstanding work. They took the time to answer my questions, didn't rush the jobs.
This was a pleasant change from the companies that I've dealt with recently. Have npo hesitation in referring H.L. Bowman to anyone”
“I want to express my gratitude to Aaron Glick for the competent work on installing the furnaces, great job, thank you very much!!!recommend to all.”
“We needed a 200 amp underground meter base on very short notice & we were only without power for 6 hours total. We couldn’t get same day service, until we called Bowman!”
“Thanks to Dan Ball – technician for excellent advice and clarification of my questions.”
“Brandon arrived on time and worked for hours cleaning the ductwork in my old house. He got rid of 40 years of dirt! He was a pleasure to work with. Great experience with HL Bowman!”
“Expert service. Efficient and very personable installer. Would hire again.”
“We had our air conditioning air ducts cleaned and my husband and I were very happy with the results. Very efficient with explaining everything and answered our questions.”
“Dylan Elliot is a personable, skilled, and effective plumber. Faced with a difficult job, he didn't give up on the first (or second, or third, etc.) try, but kept at it until he was able to maneuver a drain snake into several tricky junctions, getting the snake into the right one, and in time dislodging a peach pit that had clogged our drain in a pipe behind the wall. He had to repeatedly push the pit and clog along through at least 50 feet of pipe until it hit a larger pipe and flushed away. Had he not gotten the drain cleared, it could have meant cutting into the cabinet wall and cutting out the pipe. I appreciated his efforts, his good humor, and friendly manner. If we have other plumbing issues, I'll call H.L. Bowman again, and hope we get Dylan.”
“Christian Gelbaugh was very professional, fully knowledgeable. Answered all my questions. Gave me several ways to resolve my drainage issue.”
“Just wanted to make sure that Christian Gelbaugh, the technician that helped us with our plumbing problem gets the credit and recognition he deserves. He was thorough and knowledgeable and took time as he worked to explain why and what he was doing so we'd understand how and why the problem developed. He also gave us tips on how to prevent future problems. It was once of the most pleasant experiences we've ever had dealing with an unpleasant problem, thank you Christian. We will use your services again, if necessary, and will pass along our experience and recommendation to family members and friends. thanks. Brad and Linda”
“We requested the service special $83.00 or free for a plumbing issue we couldn't figure out. Unfortunately the service was not successful but the technician was a great help with options that we could do and even called the sister company to come out for a free diagnostic screening to help us narrow down the problem area. Very friendly, didn't leave a mess where he worked and super helpful. I would recommend to anyone!”
“Electrical service performed in my home 7/28/23 was all completed to our great satisfaction! The work done by technician Nicholas Ricci was professional and pleasant, explained the process in detail, was meticulous and organized, also left the work area completely clean. Highly recommend this technician for future electrical services & will recommend this company to others for their future home services. Thank you!”
“Nash did an outstanding job…very thorough, polite, respectful you man…duct cleaning, blower motor repair…although the 5" filter could not be installed due to coordination problems, it'll be installed soon…service lead assured me filter install will be done ASAP!!!”
“This is an enthusiastic recommendation for Nico's work at my place this week. I was happy to get the detailed quote work earlier this summer from Mike—twice—as Mike went through my very complex electrical upgrade request, evaluated all the options in detail, and gave me basically an Electric 101 course while doing it. Mike had already spoken highly of Nico when I talked to him earlier in the summer, and I was not let down by his work on my place on the day of my electrical service upgrade. Nico called in advance, showed up on time, was a consummate professional at every aspect of the project—approachability, information, attention to detail, ability, cleanliness, and on and on. Over the day Nico (1) removed and replaced and rewired my current, incredibly old & poorly wired basement disconnect box, (2) upgraded my service from 60 amps to 100 amps, (3) removed and replaced my (again) incredibly old & poorly wired upstairs breaker box, and (4) grounded my breaker box through the attic and across the building (which makes sense if you were here). Everything Nico worked on was organized and thorough—my breaker box has never been as clean and well-arranged, and up to code. Nico cleaned up after everything at every point. Can't recommend him highly enough, for work ethic, intelligence, and electrical skill and efficiency.”
“Aaron Ward was top notch in all respects. Personable, professional, thorough and masterfully skilled. He very efficiently removed our dead hot water heater and replaced it with a tankless unit in record time. Melissa in scheduling was very prompt in getting us on the work schedule as well. Huge thanks to Bowman for having such outstanding employees and especially thanks for hiring an Army veteran with whom we bonded immediately.”
“Matt Chubb did an excellent job at repairing our gas leak at our exterior pipe at our home. He was professional, knowledgeable and completed the job in a timely manner. would highly recommend.
Thanks again!”
“Shawn Bobbitt is fabulous! Shawn was our HVAC Technician for our mini-split service check-up and he took the time to explain everything he was doing and why. Very knowledgeable and thorough! Answered all of our questions. Appreciated his kindness.”
“We are so pleased with everything from this company so far. The Rep (Joshua Zieger) came to our house and explained everything and had a pretty good handle of what we needed and did not try to upsell or overstay. He was very professional and on time. We were going to get another estimate, but Joshua was so good and impressive that we did not. Finding out that Joshua was a Veteran, was only icing on the cake for us! Thank you for your service Joshua !!!! Hoping the install goes just as well…..Stay tuned LOL”
“Mikey Gesler was very professional, arrived on time, and stayed until the problem was completed to the customer's satisfaction. I would not hesitate to contact H.L. Bowman again for service, maintenance, or installation of a new product.”
“Brandon and Kyle did a great job they were both very courteous and explained the system to me in a simple easy way”
“Mike Hess did a good job explaining everything.”
“Technician Chris came out for a sink clog. He was very knowledgeable and very professional. Unfortunately the clog was not able to be removed however he gave us some good tips to try prior to repiping everything. I highly recommend using this company. You will have my business anytime plumbing is needed.”
“We are extremely satisfied with the service provided by HL Bowman. Ten months after we purchased our house, we had an older outside unit replaced with a new more efficant and enrolled in the Heat Pump Maintenance Plan. The costs incurred from this company are fair and reasonable. They make you feel like you are valued as customer. The technicians are always professional, knowledgeable and congenial. They take the time to answer all my questions and explain what is being done and why it is being done. If something is found that should be addressed, they make a recommendation without pressuring us to have it done. Mike was here yesterday to perform the spring routine preventative maintenance and performance check and it was a pleasure interacting with him. He recommended duct cleaning and we scheduled it to be performed.”
“Very satisfied with our first experience using HL Bowman for a semi-emergent plumbing situation in our home. A local person answered the phone on practically the first ring both times that I called them and there were no automated prompts to navigate – just a helpful person on the line. They were able to schedule a same-day technician visit to my home to assess the plumbing problem. I spoke w/ two administrative employees over the phone and the technician who came to my home – all were incredibly polite and helpful. Pricing was reasonable and our technician was able to resolve our issue in one visit. They set a reasonable expectation at the start of the visit and then delivered faster than expected. Pleased to find out that they also provide electrical services and so we enrolled in their MVP cost saving plan and scheduled an electrical consult. We hope to use them for our regular maintenance and new projects for years to come!”
“Hunter was very experienced and courteous. A great representative of your business.”
“We had a scheduled PM and Josh did all are work he was amazing. Did work for us and made some recommendations and no pressure. He was so professional and detailed in what he was doing!!.”
“The guys were quick and efficient in installing our new steam boiler. My wife commented that it was nice to hear the workers downstairs laughing and talking rather than swearing and yelling. The team seemed to know what they were doing, which is refreshing compared to other contractors we've had in the past. It was also great to see the more experienced team members teaching the less experienced. A smart way to go!
They did forget to turn the pilot on our hot water tank back on. It was not pleasant waking up to cold water in the morning. 🙁
But all the guys were very respectful and cleaned up very well after themselves. Even though they were in a hurry to leave and the end of the day, they did patiently answer all our questions!”
“I called because my furnace wasn't kicking on. HL Bowman was accommodating on getting a technician out the same day since the temperature was supposed to drop and I was going to be worrying about the possibility of frozen pipes. Bryan got there and diagnosed the issue, got the replacement part and fixed the furnace in under an hour. He was very friendly and respectful of the property.”
“Matt came to our house in September and installed a new faucet for our shower and our bathroom sink. He was quick, clean and friendly. We will definitely use Bowman for any other issues we have.”
“Mike Rodgers ran into a unique bathroom drain situation and problem solved it very professionally! He communicated to me so I understood what was going on at all times. Great job to Mike and to HL BOWMAN.”
“The quality of service and response time you receive from HL Bowman is exceptional. I have had two split units installed and an existing system repaired within the past month. With both experiences, the service technicians were professional, diligent and minimized any disruption to my own business. I highly recommend HL Bowman to anyone seeking HVAC and plumbing services.”
“When the water pump in the house wouldn’t stop running, immediately I shut off the breaker. I called H.L. Bowman, who was able to schedule a technician to my home. Aaron Ward arrived and did everything he was trained to do to try to resolve my issue. Unfortunately, I had to replace everything from the pump to the line inside my well. Aaron Ward arrived the very next day with all new equipment and along with him, Barry Wagner. Two of the best people who are very knowledgeable about their job and professional. They both explained everything to me in detail. I highly recommend Barry Wagner and Aaron Ward. H.L. Bowman is very fortunate to have two amazing technicians.”
“I used this business for a new toilet installation. Bill was so nice and kind and punctual and quick. I will definitely use this business for any other plumbing issues or repairs needed. The professionalism and courteousness of this company went beyond my expectations! I will totally recommend this company to any family members or friends who may need repairs or installations done! Well Done H.L. Bowman👍👍👍 A+++”
“Had Mike come out for a drain blockage, and he took the time to do a detailed camera inspection finding a pipe break allowing rocks and mud into the drain line. This issue had happened twice prior to his visit in a building just over 3 years old. Thanks to Mike's effort we identified the problem which should prevent business disruptions in the future.”
“Fast and reliable service, Aaron W. Was so personable, knowledgeable, and got the job done. Definitely recommend them for all your needs”
“Technician Barry, came to fix my leaky shower/tub faucet and did an excellent job! Very professional and courteous.
Thanks again Barry.”
“We needed some plumbing repairs in our bathroom. Our house is old and things are wearing out. I booked my appointment online and received a text and call to confirm. They called prior to coming which was nice considering we gave 3 dogs and need to contain them when strangers come. Steve was our technician and he was wonderful. He did his work well and he was very nice and respectful. He was a delight to have in our house. I will be recommending Steve and H L Bowman every chance I get. Great service!!!! Thanks & keep up the good work. It’s hard to come by these days.”
“There had been a communication breakdown regarding scheduling and I previously left a poor review because the tech never arrived.
However, amends have been made. The office manager phoned at 7pm on Friday night and squeezed me onto the Sat schedule to have a tech repair my unit. Tech arrived as promised, on time, and had the unit up and running in about 10 mins.
Experienced a bump in the road but H.L. Bowman made good their word. Very pleased.”
“The Tech (Aaron) was the ultimate professional. Explained exactly what needed to be done and how he was going to accomplish the task. Friendly and personable. Excellent representative for the company. The company itself is responsive and reasonably priced. Highly recommend both!”
“They came out and quickly figured out the problem did the install, we had an issue and they came back out next day, excellent service very pleased will use them again if ever needed. Always pleasant and friendly.”
“Wanted to share what a great job Isaac did. He was very professional and informative. Will definitely recommend your Company.”
“Awesome service done by Issac!! Very professional and kind cleaned our furnace today. AAA PLUS COMPANY HERE HIGLEY RECOMMEND. thank you.”
“I had a leaking kitchen faucet and guests arriving that evening. Bill arrived ahead of schedule and fixed the problem. He waa very professional, knowlegeable, and friendly. I liked that he explained the cause of the problem and what needed done to repair it.”
“Mike was on time and very knowledgeable. He was very efficient and did a fantastic job in removing the clog in our pipes which affected three areas of the home. He explained everything and completed the job without any problem. It was a wonderful experience for us and we were glad we contacted H.L. Bowman to to our job.”
“An overall thank you to the frontline H.L.Bowman representatives that I met with. Brian did an excellent job on the sales side of the project and spent 2+ hours with me reviewing a/c options while sitting on my screened in back porch, several weeks ago.
(more…)
“H.L. Bowman if you need your AC or your heating unit Fixed I would choose them they were very reliable they were on time came in did the repair made sure everting was working before they left cleaned up I would give them 5 star rating”
“On 5-17 & 18, Mike and his crew did an excellent job of being sure to show us what and how they were doing repairs to unclog our sewer lines. The job was bigger than expected, but they stayed until it was finally fully resolved.”
“George arrived, listened to the compressor and knew exactly what my problem was. The capacitor was failing so he replaced it and the noise went away. Great service. THANK YOU”
“Our technician was very professional and polite. We appreciated his service. An asset to your company.”
“Brandon was my tech. He was prompt, efficient, and polite. Hard to find a company now a days that you can trust that won’t try to take advantage. So far so good with HL Bowman.”
“Professional and friendly! although plumbing is not the prettiest, Mike made it look easy! highly recommend!”
“Had a new boiler put in today. These guys were very professional and very informative. So great to have a nice new service that is not noisy and seems to heat our home quickly. Very pleased all around!.”
“Mike came out, located the problem, and fixed the issue in a timely and professional manner! Very quick and explained everything to me that needed to be done!”
“Have used HL Bowman for years for both my home and, when I had a remodeling business, for on job sub-work. They are highly skilled technicians that have solved any problems encountered and will keep you updated. Appointments are kept on time and intervals for work are reasonable. I highly recommend having HL Bowman for all your HVAC and plumbing work.
“Our 20-year-old furnace went out on Friday, so we called HL Bowman. Super nice, very knowledgeable, fast, thorough, and kind employees. Worked with us to figure out a payment strategy and to chose the right energy plan. We couldn’t be any happier with how warm our home is now. Thank you”
“I discovered raw sewage coming into my basement on a Friday afternoon. After not getting return calls from 2 other plumbers, a real person from HL Bowman answered the phone and made an appt for me. Mike was here by 6pm and had to “jet” the line – while it was snowing! The company has good communication, and even tho Mike was working since 5 am, he stayed til the clog was cleared. Great service!”
“Dan is my hero!!!!! I’ve had issues with my gas boiler ever since it was installed and received estimates that ranged from 2k – 8k for repairs. Dan was able to get it working in a few hours and the cost was less than 1k. My only regret is that I didn’t find him sooner!”
“HL Bowman was terrific all around, especially considering the current Covid circumstances. We had a minor issue with our air conditioning, and they were able to get a tech to come out the next business day (I called on the Friday before Memorial Day–tech came on Tuesday).
I asked about precautions related to Covid, and the person on the phone ensured me the tech would be masked and gloved. When the tech (Cory) called, he was understanding and cooperative regarding how to initiate the interaction. He was always masked in the house, maintained at least 6 feet, and communicated his steps and concerns throughout. Cory was super professional and very courteous to our concerns, which is much appreciated. Their pricing was fair and the work was completed in about an hour. I will call them again if I have any HVAC (or plumbing) needs. Highly recommended!!”
