Where to Look for Reviews

Google Business Profile: most reviews, easy to spot patterns. HomeStars: Canadian platform, focuses on home services. BBB: complaint history and resolution. Facebook: community recommendations. Ask neighbours and local community groups for personal recommendations — word-of-mouth is the most reliable source.

Spotting Fake Reviews

Red flags: multiple 5-star reviews posted within hours of each other, reviews from accounts with no other reviews, vague reviews that could apply to any company (great service, fast, friendly), reviews that mention the company name repeatedly (sounds promotional), and reviews written in a different language or with poor grammar.

What Patterns to Look For

Positive patterns: consistent praise for professionalism and cleanliness, detailed reviews describing specific technicians, reviews that mention the company going above and beyond, and the company responds professionally to both positive and negative reviews. Negative patterns: repeated complaints about the same issue (pricing, scheduling, communication).

Safety Reminder

If you smell gas, suspect carbon monoxide or believe there is an immediate danger, leave the property and contact emergency services or the appropriate gas emergency authority. Do not remain inside — exit the building immediately and call for help from outside.
