SGA Heating & Air Conditioning

Csaba is just incredible. He’s come to my home twice for issues I worried were massive and expensive. He was very thorough, candid, helpful, and affordable. The most recent visit, he showed us a quick fix with our furnace that had been blocking our heat from functioning to its fullest. He wrote down notes so we wouldn’t have to call him again for it, so we could handle it ourselves. I’d trust him with anything in my home.

I called at least 10 companies to see if anyone can give me a quote of adding freon to our two window AC units. Other nine companies either gave me an outrageous quote or they don’t offer that. When I called SGA Heating, it surprised me how helpful the person was. He told me first check if filters are clean. (Didn’t even know there is one in AC.) Then explained it’s not cost effective to add freon because price probably will be even higher than a new unit. I don’t have to use their service to tell what a great company SGA is. I appreciate their help very much. I will definitely call SGA for new AC units when we’re ready.

I am still baffled by what happened here. I used SGA once before in the summer when Csaba came to repair my broken AC. He was excellent, timely, reasonable and even gave me great maintenance tips. But after a no call, no show on the coldest day of the year so far, I have to regretfully give a 1 star.
Two days ago I noticed a strange sound coming from my furnace. The heat was still working but I wanted to be proactive and get it checked out before it went out on me. I called Csaba and made an appointment for this morning at 9AM. Woke up early this morning with no heat and a sick infant. I was so relieved that I already had my 9AM appt. When it got to be 9:15 I shot a text just to confirm that we were still on for the appointment. No response. When it got to be 9:30 I called and left a voicemail. No response by 10. He was timely in the past and has a great reputation, so I can only assume that some emergency came up. I went ahead and made an appointment with Oasis Heating & Cooling, who were fantastic, squeezed me in today and fixed my problem (motor had gone out). I did call Csaba and leave another voicemail that I made an appointment with someone else. Never heard anything back, which I find to be very unprofessional. I don’t understand treating customers this way. If he had just called and said — hey I’m way backed up, I won’t be there until much later today — I would have understood. It just doesn’t sit right with me to be completely ignored like my time or business isn’t valuable. He is a nice guy but I have no choice but to take my business elsewhere.

Csaba consistently services my home and investment properties. He remains resourceful/​incredibly reliable/​patient/​timely.
I refer Csaba to all that need help, but I won’t give up his business card. …to valuable to me.

Such a great experience. I would highly recommend using Csaba he is so friendly and easy to get along with. He came over to fix our AC unit late on a Sunday and gave us so much knowledge including assistance on installing a garbage disposal. I wouldn’t hesitate in calling him again.

Wow.
I had some water leak from my AC unit due to a PVC pipe that needed to be extended. Csaba drove down the next day, extended the pipe and fixed the problem effortlessly. Not only that … he refused to charge me because apparently the job was «too simple».
He even answered all my questions about how to replace my old water heater.
What an extremely knowledgeable, honest, and friendly guy. If I ever need new AC /​heating equipment again in Chicago, I will ALWAYS contact Csaba first. No question.

I signed up on Unilocal just to write this review. Csaba has been taking care of my properties for over 6 years. Also a property manager, I must have someone I can count on to be honest and there when I need him. I refer him to friends and family as much as I can. I hope you have the privilege of meeting him someday.

Csaba came over today to look at a few things that my inspector had notified me about before I bought my home. He is very honest and told me that I wouldn’t need to fix certain things. His approach is: «what would I fix?» In addition, he fixed my leaky humidifier by adjusting a few parts and identified for me what I should purchase at Home Depot and install. This, of course, was the most economical solution.
He is also a great teacher. I am challenged in the area of home repair. Csaba was extremely patient and instructive in showing me what I needed to do to maintain my humidifier and air purifier. I plan to use him again in a heartbeat.
Finally, he is extremely professional, friendly, and a general pleasure to have around.

Csaba at SGA is awesome! I had multiple «mystery» problems involving ducts in my old home — noises, excessive dust, etc. I had other companies come out in the past; nobody was ever able to solve the problems. Csaba, however, not only was able to quickly diagnose and fix ALL these problems — he was very courteous, honest, professional, prompt, smart, and easy to deal with. I I regret all the time I wasted with other companies that couldn’t figure anything out. I would highly recommend Csaba for any HVAC/​AC needs.

As a property manager it is important to have a reliable and honest technician. Csaba at SGA is your guy! He is responsive, professional and always gives us the honest truth about cost and his opinion on repairing or replacing parts. I recommend Csaba at SGA for all of your heating and AC needs!
