From my first conversation with Derek to the amazing installers Devon and Colin, the service was gold star! Professional, friendly, efficient and went above and beyond to assist me! My new gas range was installed with no issues.I highly recommend this company and the team.

Bruno is awesome. I bought a new house and inherited a code violation for my gas pipe (stove). While renovating the kitchen, I called Bruno to come and fix said code violation, as well as hook up my new gas stove. Bruno was flexible with the schedule changes I had to make (different areas of the renovation kept getting delayed - which pushed back the gas hookup), and when I was finally ready for gas, Bruno was open with his availability and ready. Bruno was incredibly knowledgeable and efficient. After tending to the stove hookup and code violation...Bruno kindly looked at my gas fireplace which wasn't working. He cleaned it up and got it working perfectly, saving me lots of money as a new homeowner (as I was afraid I'd have to replace it). It looks like a brand new fireplace now! He also took a look at my water heater (currently a rental) and offered some advice. Bruno was friendly and personable - helped me with a lot more than I called him to come out for, didn't try and upsell me on anything, and offered great advice and taught me multiple things that will come in handy as a new homeowner. Thank you Bruno! I will be calling you for all of my future gas and plumbing needs, and recommend you to friends/family. 11/10.

Bruno works even on weekends. I called on Sunday and did not expect that Bruno will pick up the phone. Lucky me, he did. We had emergency water heater installation. Clean, knowledgeable, on time and honest, plesant. I would recommend him vs other companies. Price is reasonable, easy to have a deal. thanks Bruno for good job

Honest, reliable, clean, friendly service. Derek was also very clear about the details of expense and payment methods. He answered all of my questions regarding our new hot water tank install. An easy yes.

I had them to install the tankless water heater. They showed up on time with 3 people to get the whole job down in 4 hours. They are polite and patient. I am highly recommend them for any Hvac work. Thank you!

Our Reliance water heater died. I was going to just keep renting with them but I looked into it closer and realized it was way cheaper to buy it. If you go through Reliance you just pay forever. My water heater will last about 10 years. I would be paying 2-3 times the amount of just buying it. The money up front is worth it. And Bruno is a local straight up guy.

Bruno was prompt, called him on the weekend as i was desperate, my pool heater broke, during this pandemic, the stock was low and installation was minimum two to three weeks, was able to get a heater, and Bruno was here Monday morning, did a great job, tested the heater, and my kids were able to swim that afternoon. He was extremely knowledgable, cleaned up and took my old heater with him.

So refreshing to find decent honest people that are very quick to help and get the job done as soon as possible. In my case within 48hrs. Very efficient, clean and thorough. Thank you Derek and Bruno for a great job! Definitely added to my contact list! Highly recommended.

We could not be more pleased! We not only got helpful advice as to how we needed to transform a wood burning fireplace that was not to code into an updated gas fireplace but the quality and professional install was first class. Also the service and warranty were honoured without question and promptly. These are people I recommend and trust.

We had a plumbing leak in our kitchen, and a different company agreed to come, then was a no show. It was a holiday and these guys came really quickly. They did a great job. Would recommend!

In late October, we had an urgent situation that required attention. Our furnace needed to be replaced due a cracked heat exchanger. In 20 minutes, Bruno was at the house to investigate ... within 24 hours we had a new furnace. This response time is not always possible but it is clear that Bruno will do what it takes to address an urgent situation and treat the customer very well in the process. Thank you!

Derek and Bruno have been our first call for renovations for the past 2 years. They have helped us with plumbing and boilers and heating, and also general renovations including tiling, drywalling, and repairs. They are incredibly responsive, and always work to the highest standard. They think carefully about what needs to be done and are sensitive to budget concerns. Their supportive approach has really made some stressful moments easier. We have no hesitation providing them with a top rating!

Twenty year old furnace died. LOC replaced furnace within 24 hrs. Bruno and Derek were friendly, courteous and respectable of flooring. Called on them again when hot water heater needed to be replaced. Happy to own one rather than renting. Will absolutely call on them again in future!

My whole family has been using this company for years and Ive had them install a water heater, furnace and water softener for me. I called them when my water heater wasn't working, they were there within 2 hours. Diagnosed it and fixed it in 15 min. Also, they used boot covers to make sure my house stayed clean. I liked that the most. I will definitely be using them again

If I could give them more than 5 stars I would! Bruno and Justin just installed my natural gas BBQ. Friendly, fast reliable and very experienced. I always learn a lot when they are here too. Inspected all my natural gas appliances, furnace and water heater while they were here. This is my 3rd time using Local Own Comfort and it wont be my last. They are forever in My Contacts. Thank you!

If you want excellent, timely service done by skilled, friendly professionals with years of experience, use Local Own Comfort. Owners, Derek and Bruno pay attention to detail on every job and they charge reasonable, competitive rates. They keep their work spaces clean and tidy, while always being considerate of me and my living environment. I would definitely hire them again.

Over the past few years, LOC comfort has done quite a bit of work for us; a furnace, a hot water heater, a new fireplace and general plumbing. Always on time and reliable. So much so I recommend them to my Dad who had them put in a new shower. He’s very happy. Nice work boys!

I have worked with Derek and Bruno for years on all of our plumbing and HVAC projects. They have installed gas fireplaces, furnaces, gas stoves,, outdoor gas lines, shop heaters, hot water tanks, air filtration systems, range hoods and most recently a full reverse osmosis water filtration system for us.Their project management skills are excellent. They are on time, clean, thoughtful and take the time to make sure that the job is done right. On top of all that, they are transparent with their pricing.Highly recommended!

It is hard to find quality service at a fair price these days. I was extremely satisfied with the services provided by Bruno. I strongly recommend LOC if you are seeking someone who is knowledgeable, experienced, reliable and committed to doing a great job. Thank you!

The staff of L.O.C. were friendly, timely, and most of all more than capable when installing a new furnace for me. They offered a great product at a competitive price, and completed the installation in under the estimated time of completion. After the job was finished they carefully removed the old furnace and cleaned up as if there was no mess created. I can't recommend these guys enough.

We had no hot water and we found out from Reliance Home Comfort that our tank needed to be replaced. We decided to explore our options of buying over renting. We found out that we paid over $5500 for that rental tank we had for 12 years. We were recommended by our friends to speak with Local Own Comfort and we purchased a tank from them. They came and installed the tank very quickly and left no mess. They were $300 to $400 cheaper compared to 3 local companies we called and owning is 3x cheaper than renting from Reliance. We would recommend LOC to our friends and family.
