How much does it cost to have air conditioning installed?

Air conditioning installation price varies. One of the primary costs will be for the unit itself. Our technicians also have the ability to modify ductwork in case it is needed. We will also charge an installation fee that varies depending on how many installation parts we use, and how much time it takes to do the job. But no matter what, we will give you a written firm proposal in advance, before we start the work, guarantee the price, and guarantee the work!

Which air conditioning brand do you guys recommend?

We supply and install Trane and Mitsubishi units with financing available. When selecting a unit, our team will provide specific recommendations based on your family's needs, energy efficiency requirements, and overall budget. We are proud to be Trane Comfort Specialists and Mitsubishi Elite Diamond Contractors.

How much should it cost to convert from a traditional to tankless hot water heater?

Tankless water heaters are often more costly to install than traditional tank water heaters. However, the overall cost for installing a tankless hot water heater will vary depending on your existing plumbing and the cost and capacity of the unit itself. Tankless hot water heaters are a great option for new builds and when easy accessibility and venting are available. Annual maintenance for your new tankless water heater is vital to keep it functioning properly!

Can you repair any brand of water heater?

Yes! We are experienced in water heater repairs with most makes and models of water heaters. Whether you have a traditional tank water heater or a tankless unit, our reputable professionals are highly capable of fixing any problem you might have with your hot water unit. As long as the parts available, we offer repairs for most water heater brands. If your water heater is over eight years old, parts aren’t readily available, or repairs will cost over $800, we may recommend installing a new unit for the most cost-effective option.

I have bad allergies. What can help improve the air in my house?

For individuals who suffer from allergies, we recommend installing indoor air quality systems to help remove contaminants, bacteria and molds, viruses, and allergens from the air. Robert B. Payne, Inc. offers indoor air quality assessments and installation services such as Air Scrubber and Reme Halo systems which work to keep the air you breathe as healthy and pure as possible!

Top Places to Celebrate Christmas in Fredericksburg and Nearby Communities

Maybe we’re a little biased, but we think Fredericksburg is one of the best places to celebrate and spend the Christmas holiday. That’s because our city has so much history! The crew at Robert B. Payne, Inc. decided we’d gather a list of our favorite Fredericksburg Christmas traditions and share that with you!

Celebrate Christmas at These Places

First and foremost, the Christmas Parade is the perfect way to ring in the holiday season. It takes place downtown and hosts floats made by several community groups. This year’s theme is “Christmas Pastimes,” and we couldn’t be more excited about it!

Next, stay in the historic downtown area and shop small. Our local businesses often have sales around this time of year, so shopping at these local stores is the perfect way to support the Fredericksburg community and get a good deal.

Holiday concerts and performances are some of our other ways to ring in the holiday. From the school district’s choir concerts to the Frederickburg Ballet Centre’s Nutcracker performance, Christmas is bound to feel festive.

The traditional favorite, finally, is to visit the Battle of Fredericksburg Site. The battle actually took place on December 12th and 13th, so this time of year is great for delving into the local history. Check out a guided tour at the site!
