Maintenance Services

A generator can only perform at its peak if you keep it in good condition. That means regular inspections, seasonal oil changes, and prompt replacement of parts like air filters, spark plugs, and battery chargers.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Michael did a great job installing a whole house filter. Took time to answer all our questions and was very patient with explaining the installation process and the operation of the water flow with the new filter. Very pleased with experience and will definitely use again.

Greg B.

Scott and Derek did an amazing job replacing our light-fan combos for two bathrooms that were 32 years old. They were prompt, courteous, knowledgeable and professional. We highly recommend Hickey!

Laurie C.

Danny spoke with me on the phone to guide me in attempting to fix the issue myself, and when I was unable to do so he promptly came out to diagnose the issue and get our HVAC back up and running after replacing a bad breaker. He was professional and kind to my kids who were running around the whole time.

Matthew T.

Clint and his crew were very knowledgeable and gave swift service. He has proved himself a kind and compassionate businessman - we felt like more than just a dollar figure to him. He explained the ins and outs of the Generator system we had installed as well as things that the competitors would not.
Highly recommended!
Thanks

Mike from Hickey Plumbing etc. Was outstanding. We are located a little remotely in Nelson and I have not had the best of luck with finding good trustworthy trades people to service our home. Very glad to have found someone I'm satisfied with. I'll be getting the annual service agreement he mentioned. No sales pressure. He just mentioned it. No nonsense, fair price and our hot water heater is working just fine. He was the third guy to look at it and no one before him mentioned the thermostats being the problem. The others just wanted to sell me stuff I didn't need. Thank you Mike and Hickey Plumbling, Air and Electrical. I'll be a repeat customer for sure.
