AC repair costs in North Texas typically range from $150-$650 for common repairs. Diagnostic fees average $75-$150, often waived with repair. Major repairs like compressor replacement can run $1,500-$3,000. Always get multiple quotes and ask about diagnostic fee policies.
Texas HVAC contractors must hold a TACL (Texas Air Conditioning License) issued by TDLR. Verify licenses at tdlr.texas.gov by searching the contractor's name or license number. Also check for EPA 608 certification for refrigerant handling and consider NATE certification for technician competency.
The top HVAC companies in North Texas typically serve Collin, Denton, and Dallas counties, including Frisco, Plano, McKinney, Allen, The Colony, Prosper, Little Elm, and Addison. Most reputable companies offer same-day service within a 20-30 mile radius of their main location.
Schedule AC maintenance in early spring (March-April) before the summer heat arrives, and heating maintenance in early fall (September-October). Avoid peak summer months (June-August) when contractors are busiest with repairs. Spring and fall appointments are easier to schedule and may offer better rates.
