Most sites rank pros by who pays the most, or sell your details to whoever bids. We do neither. Every HVAC pro here carries one independent Trust Score, built from state license records, review sentiment from Google and Reddit, and our own verified homeowner reviews. Payment cannot move a Trust Score by even one point, and we never sell your details.
A pro cannot pay to rank above a higher-scoring competitor. A subscriber scoring 22 never outranks a non-subscriber scoring 88.
Placement follows the verified data, not an ad budget. Paying us never hides a negative signal from you.
When you request quotes, your job goes to verified local pros. We are not a lead broker auctioning your details.
Every pro on this page traces back to a public record, not a marketing claim. Here is exactly what we check.
We seed this directory directly from Texas state license data (TDLR and TSBPE) and record each pro's active-license status, expiry, and authority. License verification is the single largest factor in the Trust Score, checked against Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, never inferred from a contractor's advertising.
We analyze real Google reviews and Reddit recommendations for reliability, quality, responsiveness, and pricing fairness, so a pro praised on Google but dragged on Reddit does not slip through.
First-party reviews affect a score only after we confirm the reviewer actually used the pro, which blocks bought or retaliatory reviews. New signals wait through a 7-day grace period before they count.
Eight reviews count less than eighty, recent reviews weigh more than old ones, and we publish every signal and principle while keeping the exact weighting internal, so the score cannot be reverse-engineered.
How to hire with confidence, and how HomeClip keeps this list honest.
Search at tdlr.texas.gov/LicenseSearch/. Confirm the Air Conditioning Contractor license is Active and the class is appropriate for your job (Class A for any tonnage; Class B for residential under 25 tons).
$8,000-$14,000 for a standard 16 SEER2 single-stage 4-ton condenser + matching air handler + permit + install in Austin. Variable-speed 18+ SEER systems run $13,000-$22,000. Outside that range, both above and below, warrant extra scrutiny.
Typical residential AC system: 12-18 years in Texas. If your system is under 12 years and the repair quote is under $2,000, repair almost always wins on math. Beyond 15 years, replacement starts making sense even on smaller repairs because failure rate climbs and refrigerant types are phasing out.
Two reasons: legitimate (refrigerant has phased out, compressor is dead, repair would be 60%+ of replacement cost) or commission-driven (sales-incentivized techs upsell). Get a second opinion before any replacement quote over $8,000, the HomeClip Get 3 Quotes flow gives you 3 independent looks within the hour.
