“Our historic rental in Gruene needed the panel and AC brought into this century without ruining the character. Moorhead nailed it, pulled the permit, and our guests have not had a single hot-day complaint since.”
When the AC quits on the hottest afternoon of the year in Gruene, you need a tech already carrying the part — not one who orders it Monday. Service call is a flat $79, waived when you book the repair.
Thanks for reaching out. We've got your request and we'll be in touch shortly, usually the same day. Need us right now? Call (830) 587-5790 — we're open 24/7.
Same-day in most cases
Most Gruene AC failures come down to a handful of parts, and we carry all of them on the truck. We diagnose flat-rate, tell you what is wrong in plain English, and most repairs finish the same visit.
No guessing, no ordering it and coming back next week. The price is in writing before we start.
Call (830) 587-5790South Texas summers are not subtle, and Gruene runs its systems hard. When one quits, it is almost always one of these.
The most common single-point AC failure we see. A part the size of a soup can that dies in heat — usually the hottest week of the year, when the attic is 130 degrees and the system has run flat out for days. We carry capacitors in three ratings, so the repair takes under an hour and the house is cool before dinner.
If your AC slowly lost its cool over weeks, you have a leak. We do not just recharge it and leave — recharging a leaking system is a subscription, not a repair. We locate the leak, quote the fix, and recharge once it is sealed. It is usually the evaporator coil.
The contactor is the electrical switch that starts the compressor. When it burns out, the outdoor unit sits dead while the air handler pushes warm air. Parts on the truck, usually under two hours — and being licensed for electrical too, we check the whole start circuit while we are in there.
A clogged condensate drain trips a safety float and shuts the system off — it looks dead but it is protecting itself. A dirty coil makes the system work twice as hard for half the cooling. Both are same-day fixes.
The 1800s homes in and around Gruene predate central air entirely — undersized panels, two-prong outlets, sometimes knob-and-tube still in the walls. We modernize the electrical safely, keep the period character, and document it with a permit, which matters for insurance and resale on a historic property.

From the historic district and the rentals along the river to the homes just outside it, we cover Gruene and the surrounding part of New Braunfels. A few of the areas:
“Our historic rental in Gruene needed the panel and AC brought into this century without ruining the character. Moorhead nailed it, pulled the permit, and our guests have not had a single hot-day complaint since.”
“AC went out in our shop on a Saturday in peak season. They came fast, fixed it without making us close, and the price was exactly the quote. They get what downtime costs a small business.”
“Old house near the river, muggy and musty for years. They added a dehumidifier and UV light and sealed the ducts. Comfortable, and it even smells better. Honest, careful crew.”
