Heat stopped working early evening on Jan 12. Called Kellam and they dispatched Morgan Bayse. He solved the problem, correcting a safety problem and giving us our heat back on a chilly night. The tech was very knowledgeable and worked cheerfully and skillfully to get the job done. Thanks to Morgan and the Kellam team

Kellam’s air tech, Shawn, was very professional from the start fo the finish. He is kind and courteous with great communication skills. Shawn took the thime to explain the process, Issues, and resolution options. He took care with the property, cleaned up after the job and had immeasurable patience answering all my questions. I highly recommend Kellam and if you are lucky enough to have Shawn as your tech you will be in great hands.

Kellam Mechanical continues to be the best! Just had my fall heating system maintenance completed. My tech was very courteous and professional. He arrived on time with a smile on his face. He took time to ask questions about my heating system performance, to explain the fall maintenance process, and to answer my questions. During the service, Shawn identified a problem with my downstairs system. He quickly initiated the correct actions that resolved the problem and returned my heating unit to full strength. Well done! Just had a water heater replaced. Attic installation. Extremely professional job. Neat and clean. Great company.

Your tech was just here today doing a maintenance check. A very stand up guy. Really enjoyed talking to him and he did a very thorough job! You’ve got a good one and he speaks highly of Scott and Sarah and this was before I told him I knew y’all. Happy Thanksgiving.

The technician came to our home to perform maintenance for our HVAC system and the dehumidifier in our crawl space. He was professional, knowledgeable and friendly and completed the work in a timely fashion. All my interactions with Kellam have been great and I definitely recommend them.

The electrician came to quote us to replace 4 external electrical outlets we’d had problems with and were concerned about their safety. When we asked if he could do the work that same day, he managed this, despite finding some additional issues and needing to purchase parts. The whole time he was professional, knowledgeable, courteous and genuine. When he finished, we were confident that things had been done right this time and we were safe. He is a star and well done Kellam for hiring such ace people.

Our generator was not working during the recent storm when we lost power. We had been having issues with it for the past year and the company we had a maintenance agreement with stopped responding to our calls. I called Kellam the day of the outage and was actually able to speak with someone who was very concerned and tried to get us an appointment that day but ended up coming the next day early morning. The tech was great! He was here for several hours and determined to diagnose the issue which he found out was a corroded wire. We now have a service agreement with Kellam and hope this excellent service continues. Thank you

E. Alley

We are new to Kellam Mechanical but have been so pleased with our experiences. Today I had electricians out to work on our generator panel box. With a recent power outage not all the right things came on with the generator. The electricians did an amazing job of getting everything fixed. They were friendly and understanding of our needs. And we got very thing fixed.

John did a good job in servicing my outdoor Generac 8KW generator and answering the many questions I had on the cutoff switch in garage. The fact he was a Master Electrician provide me a high level of confidence that all electrical related questions were answered correctly.

Our 16 year old gas water heater finally gave up and leaked water all over the garage floor in the evening. I called Kellam and their plumber showed up the very next morning. His professionalism, expertise, and timeliness were highly appreciated during a crisis moment as we also have a small child and couldn’t go long without water service. He installed a brand new water heater and thoroughly went over all the technical details with me. I can’t thank him and Kellam Mechanical enough, and will continue to be a longtime customer.

We have been using Kellam Mechanical services for over 20 years. Recently , we had Kellam Mechanical come out to flush our hot water heater and to give us an estimate for replacement of sink faucets, tub faucets and new toilets. The representative from Kellam Mechanical was excellent. From the moment he introduced himself, we felt totally comfortable with his work ethics and his recommendations to the replacement of faucets and toilets. He was most thorough in explaining the flushing of the hot water heater and was most informative in explaining what type of faucets and toilets that he would recommend. Not only was he strait forward with his explanations, we felt a genuine concern from him to make sure our needs and desires were met. The plumber was warm, friendly and information. Kellam Mechanical should be very proud to have Ben representing their company. It is employees like him that keep us loyal customers of Kellam Mechanical. A+++++

Kellam is absolutely top notch! I have an Apollo heating system and the part that I needed was out of stock locally. They ordered the part, got it delivered quickly and set up my repair. Unfortunately I had some unforeseen problems from previous contractors working on the system which Kellam had to diagnose and fix. They sent a tech out on emergency service at 10pm, a master plumber the next am then finally an Apollo specialist that afternoon to get my system running properly. I feel that Kellam really went above and beyond what any other company would have done to get my heat running. Also their techs exhibit much more knowledge and experience than any other company that has worked on my house. If you have a HVAC or plumbing problem you can’t go wrong by calling Kellam Mechanical.

The technician is a very polite young man and arrived early. He even sold me a membership. I think it will be handy. I was pretty scared yesterday with the electrical issues and I also appreciate the quick response
