I was referred to Bayside by my wife's co-worker. I had a heat pump problem and they diagnosed it and repaired it without a lot of upselling I have delt with from other vendors. The Eric came out and explained the problem. He was very knowledgeable and did a great job. I plan to use them in the future.

Kevin was knowledgeable and honest. Refreshing! I have contacted Bayside two times and both were positive interactions.

Great team at Bayside Heating & Cooling!We are new to the area & during this frigid weather they came to our rescue! Our heat pump wasn't delivering much heat and it was getting colder! (12 degrees that night) They immediately came out and Eric went under the house & found 2 reasons for the problem & fixed one right then & there which made a huge difference! And then told us (which we didn't know) we had a propane back up and needed propane! And Eric even spoke with the propane company on our behalf! Great team there!

I cannot say enough about Kevin and Eric, they are absolutely awesome!!! We were VERY lucky to find Bayside Heating and Cooling, and will ALWAYS use them and recommend them, We would give them an 12 out of 10, that re thank good!!!! We have been working with them for over 2-years now, so the review is a one-off, it shows their consistency.

I recently had an outstanding experience with Bayside Heating and Cooling. My furnace broke down, and after booking an appointment on their website, Eric arrived the same day to diagnose the issue. The inspection fee was $120, which was later applied to the furnace repair itself—a great policy that saved me money.Eric discovered the problem was a faulty control panel and clearly explained several replacement options, outlining the pros and cons of each. Because my furnace was already over 16 years old, I decided on a more budget-friendly approach. Eric then took the extra step of calling around and checking online to find the best price for the part. He picked it up and installed it the same day, saving me at least $500 in the process.I especially appreciated Eric’s transparency and willingness to go the extra mile. This stood out compared to a previous experience I had with another company, Home Constellation, which charged a nonrefundable $99 fee (not applied to further work), which was bumped to $124 for half an hour spent diagnosing the issue. They quoted around $900 for the control panel plus $250 for labor, and when I asked for a detailed breakdown, no one followed up for two days. In contrast, Bayside gave me immediate answers, multiple options, and finished the job that day.Overall, I think Home Constellation under performed and Bayside Heating and Cooling went the extra mile, and I lucked out getting Eric, who worked unfazed by our overly friendly rescue Akita's kibitzing.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Bayside Heating and Cooling for the installation of a new BOSCH HVAC unit in my home, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience.The pricing was competitive, making it a great value for the quality of service provided. They completed the installation quickly without sacrificing attention to detail, ensuring everything was done properly. Since the install, the new unit has been working flawlessly. I highly recommend Bayside Heating and Cooling to anyone in need of HVAC services!

Kevin was absolutely spot on with diagnosis. This problem started 14 years ago with the builder going cheap and undersizing the unit, with a 2 ton unit. We purchased the house in December of 2013, no AC needed in December. In July of that year we had a hot streak in the hundreds, upstairs rooms were 92°, builder cam back a tried to fix it on the cheap. With the excessive heat this year 2024, it was unbearable, we called Kevin, he came out advised us what was going on and what needed to be done to fix the problem once and for all. He brought his crew out on Saturday and they were very nice and professional! When they were done Kevin spent an extra hour double checking everything. Today it is 73° upstairs and a cool 72° downstairs. That has never happened since we have owned this house. Great job Kevin and thank you very much!!!

Kevin responded to my call within an hour and came out the very next morning when my AC stopped working. Very professional and will definitely be a return customer in the future.

Working with Bayside was a terrific experience! When I called on a Saturday, I left a message and he called me back within an hour to schedule an appointment. Kevin arrived when he said he would. He ran the diagnostics, showed me the results and explained them all to me. He made suggestions for the repairs and did them quickly, explaining what he was doing as he went along. When he left, everything was cleaned up and back in order. I highly recommend Bayside!!

Over the top experience. They were at my house within an hour of my call and I was greeted by an experienced professional. He identified the problem quickly and had the thermostat I needed in the van and replaced my old one. Could have had a better experience.

Christopher

12:56 02 May 24

I called Bayside around 4:00 in the afternoon and left a message. I thought that I would not hear anything back until the next day. Instead, I received a return call about 90 minutes later. Kevin was able to squeeze me intro his schedule for the next day (probably during his lunch break). He came on time and fixed the problem in a timely manner. This type of service is not found much anymore. I appreciate the way he runs his business.

Paul Martin

15:25 01 May 24

They were able to show up early and had my AC fixed in 30 minutes. Walked me through every step that he was taking. Definitely recommend if you need repair. Thanks again.

Outstanding service as always. Kevin is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and personable. He was able to come out the next day and got our aging unit working to get us through the summer. Bayside is going to install a new unit in the fall. There really is a difference with a local smaller company. Bayside takes their time and is always focused on what's best for the customer. You won't get that from the larger companies. I can't recommend Bayside enough.

Andrew Beecher

22:39 17 Apr 24

Bayside did an outstanding job replacing our 20+ year old A/C unit with a modern and reasonably priced heat pump. Kevin made it a point to make sure we were informed of relevant tax credits and the cost breakdown of similar units. He did the job impressively quick and with a keen eye for attention to detail despite the massive workload. Kevin was extremely professional throughout and I'd 100% recommend him to anyone looking for A/C or Heating work in the area!

John Nicholson

Kevin was professional and fixed the issue with our furnace quickly during a routine maintenance check. Kept us informed during the process. Will definitely use them again.

23:53 07 Apr 24

Best experience I've ever had with a repair! It was 90+ degrees on a Sunday holiday weekend when my AC started making an awful noise. It had been serviced last fall by Arundel heating and that was an awful experience. Found Bayside and hoped they could give me a next day appointment. Kevin answered the phone and came out 7:25 on a Sunday! No extra charge! Less expensive than weekday charge by Arundel! Problem was fixed promptly! Highly recommend! Thanks Kevin. You will be hearing from us again. Great customer service!

We found Bayside through a frantic internet search when our AC had gone out AGAIN in the summer heat (while pregnant, mind you. Not fun). We were unsatisfied with another local company who continued to give us the run around and couldn't figure out what was wrong.One phone call later, Bayside comes out less than 24 hours later and is able to diagnose the issue. Kevin was an absolute gem and really helped us to understand what was going wrong with our hvac system and was thorough in explaining why. He gave us multiple options for where to go from there and as soon as we decided, he promptly scheduled us to have it fixed. We finally have stable ac and heat! Could not recommend Bayside enough!!!

Kevin was fantastic to work with - he was very knowledgeable, open, and honest about the issue we were having. He wasn't able to fix our issue because our system is so proprietary, it required an OEM technician. But he was straightforward and did all of the inspections that he could in order to make his visit worthwhile. He gave us good recommendations on the problems with our ductwork. I would absolutely use Bayside again for my HVAC issues (I just wish I didn't have such a locked down system).

THE BEST! got bayside’s contact from my neighbor friend bc she had a great experience. we’ve been needing a new servicer for yearly maintenance and I’m so happy I called Kevin. Even though he just did a simple tune up for us, he went over and beyond my expectations. He was way more thorough than our last servicer, taught me a few things I wasn’t aware of, any even programmed our ecobee schedule which had been confusing me for years 🤣 super nice guy, knowledgeable, and honest. couldn’t ask for a better experience!

Kevin was a lifesaver! He came out and diagnosed the problem with my heating system on short notice at the end of the day on a Tuesday. I wasn’t available the next day, so he came out first thing on Thursday morning and had me back up and running before 11:00. He provided estimates, let me know what he was doing throughout the process, and was unfailingly professional. Would recommend 10/10.

Kevin McClain is one of the kindest, most professional, and most attentive service providers I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Additionally, his employees are just as diligent and nice to interact with. He spent hours to carefully install our new HVAC. He came up with the most reasonable solution for us financially, and then delivered sooner than scheduled when the weather turned. I give them eight stars out of five. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Kevin and Blake were extremely hard-working and dedicated and were able to diagnose a complex problem and get it done over a period of two days. They moved the air conditioner out from under the back porch and serviced it got the pressure correct, got the fan motor working, cleaned it and were able to get it up and running again. I highly recommend Bayside Heating & Cooling.
