“Our AC died during that August heat wave and Moorhead had a tech at our place in Stone Oak the same afternoon. Turned out to be a capacitor — he had the part on the truck, fixed it in under an hour, and charged exactly what he quoted. No upsell.”
When the AC quits on the hottest afternoon of the year in San Antonio, 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.

Same-day in most cases
Most San Antonio 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 San Antonio 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.
Monte Vista, Mahncke Park, Alamo Heights, King William — gorgeous homes, original electrical. We still find knob-and-tube remnants, 60- and 100-amp services feeding a house that has since added two AC systems and a hot tub, and Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels that Bexar County insurers increasingly refuse to cover. Homes built 1965 to 1973 often have aluminum branch wiring, which loosens at connections and runs hot. None of it is a reason to panic. All of it is a reason to have it looked at before it picks the worst possible night to quit.

From the historic homes inside Loop 410 to the new builds past 1604, we run calls across the San Antonio metro every week. A few of the areas we cover:
“Our AC died during that August heat wave and Moorhead had a tech at our place in Stone Oak the same afternoon. Turned out to be a capacitor — he had the part on the truck, fixed it in under an hour, and charged exactly what he quoted. No upsell.”
“We bought a 1940s home in Monte Vista and the panel was a Federal Pacific our insurance would not touch. Justin's crew swapped it, pulled the permit, and explained everything in plain English. Felt like dealing with a neighbor, not a salesman.”
“Called three places when the upstairs of our house would not cool. Moorhead was the only one who measured the load instead of just quoting a new system. Ended up being a zoning fix for a fraction of the price. Honest people.”
Tell us what the system's doing and we'll get right back to you — usually same day, anywhere in San Antonio. Prefer to talk? Call (830) 587-5790, day or night.
