Leave Us a Review

If you have worked with Finish Line Cooling & Heating, we would appreciate your honest feedback. Your reviews help other homeowners find a contractor they can trust.

We highly recommend Finish Line for AC/heating. It’s been our experience that they are honest, reliable and respectful. We interacted with Ken (owner) Tyler, Paul and one other tech (sorry I didn’t get your name) thru this process and each of them are well trained and willing to explain their work. Our warranty work was done immediately and thoroughly. Thank you very much.

On 6.19.2026 our ac went down at our home in North Port at 11:00 pm. We Called 9 companies fist that all claimed they offered 24 hour service. The companies really offer 24 hour AI telephone service. We wasted an hour calling and leaving messages, when we called Kenny Gibson from Finish Line he actually answered the phone and was out to us within 45 minutes and resolved our problem professionally . Kenny has very fair emergency service pricing. . Our advice call Kenny first. We will be using Finishline AC in the future for all our needs.

These guys came through! I had called my regular a/c service company 3x while my house was at 81 degrees and left multiple messages with the service rep and didn’t even get the courtesy of a call back. Then I called Finish Line and they picked up on a Sunday on the 1st ring. I spoke to Kenny and he had someone at my house within an hour, at a reasonable rate and had my unit back up and running that same day (frozen coil). They even scheduled to come back the next day (free of charge) to make sure the unit remained working properly. Customer service is everything and word of mouth is worth more dollars than you can count. Finish Line just became my new A/C go to guy and I suggest you give them a try. Good work , at an honest price with guys who actually put service first!

Memorial Day Weekend late afternoon on Sunday my AC stopped working. I called a couple others and either no answer or call back Tuesday. I called Finish Line and they had a tech out to my place in less than an hour. They called Eddie who had the day off, he came over and quickly got to work. He went through the system and did preventive maintenance. He even came back on the same day to redo the drain line since it was improperly installed from the previous company. An employee with such dedication is extremely rare. Maybe Eddie should get a raise or at least employee of the month!!!

I had a mini split system installed and the guys were great. They did a great job and were very knowledgeable about the system. I would recommend Finish Line for any heating and cooling needs.
