West Seneca questions
Which parts of West Seneca can you take requests from?
All of it, ZIP 14224 included. When the company phones you back, they check that your street is inside the territory they cover.
How soon could a technician get here?
That swings with the weather. The first humid week of June swamps every company in the county. If the house has no cooling and someone living there is older or in poor health, put that in the request so the company can move you up if its schedule allows.
Will I know the cost before any work?
You will. The technician finds the fault and names the price, and only then starts, if you say yes. When you book, ask how much the service call is and whether it is credited.
