Why Licensing Matters
When you hire a licensed HVAC contractor, you're not just paying for technical skill — you're getting peace of mind. In South Carolina, licensed contractors must pass exams, follow legal standards, and carry insurance. It’s how you know the work will be safe, code-compliant, and accountable.
Most HVAC complaints come from unlicensed work.
State Licensed. Insured. Bonded.
The paperwork's in place. We're licensed with the state, bonded for protection, and fully insured — so homeowners never have to wonder what if.
