Common Air Conditioning Problems We Repair
Your air conditioner can encounter a variety of issues over time. Our team is equipped to handle them all, including:

If your AC is running but not cooling effectively, it could be due to a refrigerant leak, dirty coils, or a faulty compressor. Our technicians will inspect and repair the system to restore its cooling power.
2. AC Not Turning On
A system that won’t start may be suffering from electrical issues, thermostat malfunctions, or a tripped circuit breaker. We’ll diagnose and fix the problem quickly.
3. Strange Noises
Banging, buzzing, or screeching sounds can indicate mechanical problems such as loose parts, a failing motor, or belt issues. We’ll identify the source and perform necessary repairs.
4. Leaking or Frozen AC Unit
If you notice water pooling around your unit or ice forming on the coils, this could be a sign of a clogged drain line or refrigerant issues. Our experts will address the issue and prevent further damage.

Signs You Need AC Repair
Not sure if you need professional AC repair? Here are some warning signs to look out for:
- Warm Air Blowing from Vents – If your AC isn’t producing cold air, it could indicate a refrigerant issue or compressor problem.

- Frequent Cycling – If your AC is turning on and off frequently, it may be struggling to maintain the set temperature.
- Bad Odors – A musty or burning smell could indicate mold growth, electrical issues, or overheating components.
- Excessive Humidity – Your AC should regulate humidity levels. If your home feels too humid, it may need servicing.

Had a sudden plumbing problem and Mike K. was able to get there in less than 2 hours and get the problem fixed fast. Thanks!

Very happy with our water heater maintenance check today by Gene Johnson Plumbing. Our technician Branson did a thorough job, was friendly, and did a great job communicating what had been done and any items of note while completing the task at hand.

Called to get leaky water tank replaced. The team sent Jeff over and performed way above any expectation… He is a great tech but mostly a wonderful human being. He was clear and complete in his communications. Helpful and thoughtful the whole way through. Great guy! His knowledge and professionalism shines in what he does, and does well. I have his card and will not ever hesitate to reach out, for anything that may come up in the future. Jeff leads in representing what I like to call “old school” approach to customer service and managing any task or service he provides, from simple to complex. You got a winner there, for sure!
Pam Harmon
Nice work, thank you.
Loc Bui
Our Plumber was Justin, he was great
Jessica Gardner
Mark O. came to my home today to inspect my plumbing and water heater. He was very professional and made sure I understood all of the problematic things that he found and what it would cost to address them. He even took a little extra time to explain things to my very curious 6 year old that insisted on following him around throughout his entire inspection. We highly recommend Gene Johnson for all of their services and if you can, ask for Mark to come do your water inspection/repair!
Ronda Barnes
Thank you, Joe!
The service was prompt and efficient.
Joe went the extra mile to get the job done sooner than later! Very nice,
Highly recommended!

Had Justen come out for a faucet replacement. He was great and quick. The only thing is Gene Johnsons prices seem to be higher and higher. It was a surprise to me that when they replaced a toliet with one I bought, to take out the old and install a new one was $1016. That did not include the new hose and valve. Those little things have to be replaced too and that doesn’t bother me as much. But high to just install a Glacier Bay toliet with nothing fancy.
Gary and Karen Cone
Particularly liked our installer, Matthew who went above and beyond and beyond.
Stephanie McBee
Mark Ochoa worked hard, was knowledgeable, and stuck with a very difficult job. We are very satisfied!
Conney Vernall
Tyler’s team, Greg & Rory were amazing! Everything was done efficiently, they even backfilled the holes with fresh soil, put seeds on top, poured concrete in the garage and cleaned up their mess, this is way more than what I asked for. Nothing but praise from me, thank you again!
Gloria Leach
Excellent service and workmanship as always. Won’t use any other company for plumbing and electrical work!
Emma Brillhart
Chandler Price came out to fix a leaking pipe under the sink. He was super quick and very communicative. Would absolutely work with him again in the future!
cozys place
Needed to replace bathtub faucet from leaking. It was looking like I would need to replace the surround on my tub because of old style fixtures and molding on the surround. The guy had the same type fixtures on truck, which normally would take a couple of weeks to get in, as I was also told by another company. Had job done that day. The guys did a fantastic job. They explained everything they were doing and even saved me some money. I would highly recommend.
Daryl Imburgia
Steven and Joe did a great job for us today. Didn’t try and over charge us. Gave us quotes for all options. And then found out the problem was an easy fix and took care of it quickly.
VeenaM Arani
Excellent work by Andrew! He is very friendly and accommodating. Great job. Would recommend to others.
Lynnda Laurie
I wanted to invest in a tankless hot water heater. My current heater was still working, but I wanted the replacement done before it was an emergency. Colby gave me a bid that was significantly lower than a competitor. He and Hugo got the job done with such professionalism. They were both so pleasant and professional. I would hire them again in a heartbeat!
