What People Say About Us

Unmatched Customer Service: Real Feedback from Satisfied Clients

"We were having an 'issue' with our ac and after a thorough evaluation, the gentleman at Sims kindly informed us there was nothing wrong with the ac except the button was not on. Even though we were the dumb ones, these guys were so nice and honest and didn't speak down to us. They did not even charge us for our mistake. I can't say how much we appreciate their kindness, honesty, time and professionalism."

by Michelle Thaxton

"Anthony and the team were extremely helpful! Had the run around with some other businesses in Killeen and they squared me away in less than a day! Great service, very reasonable pricing, super understanding and helpful."

by Haley

"Highly recommended!! Did great work on my daughters car diagnosed it and replaced it and found that the part was faulty and replaced it again all in the same day also checked my ac only to tell me it was fine and didn’t need replacing. Most shops would have changed it anyway. Talk about integrity. This is our new shop!!"
