What I do

HVAC repairs, installations, and tune-ups

I work on homes and small businesses. If something is not heating, cooling, or moving air the way it should, I can help you get to the bottom of it.

Spring tune-up

Catch it before the first 95° day

I would rather find a weak capacitor or clogged drain during a tune-up than have you discover it when the house is already hot.

Where I work

Based in McKinney. Working across north DFW.

These are the communities I am in most often. If you live just outside them, send me a text—I may already be headed your way.

Why call me

No call center, no upsell script

You get me every time

I answer the phone, diagnose the problem, do the work, and send the invoice. You are not passed from person to person.

You hear the price first

I tell you the diagnostic fee before I head over. If you approve the repair, that fee comes off the bill.

A straight answer on timing

Text me and I will tell you honestly whether I can get there today—no four-hour window I already know I cannot make.

I show you what went wrong

Before you decide anything, I will explain what failed, why it matters, and what it will cost to fix.

FAQ

Questions I get asked

If you do not see your question here, text me. I would rather give you a clear answer than leave you guessing.

Who actually shows up?

Me, Jacob. Starsky Mechanical is a one-man operation. I answer the phone, do the work, and I am the person you call back if something is not right.

How fast can you get here?

If you are in McKinney, Allen, Melissa, or Prosper, same day is usually doable. Frisco and Plano depend on where I already am. Text me — I will tell you honestly instead of booking a window I cannot hit.

Do you charge a diagnostic fee?

I charge for the diagnostic, and I tell you the number before I drive out. If you go ahead with the repair, that fee comes off the invoice.

Will you look at another company’s quote?

Happily. Bring me the quote. Sometimes it is fair and I will say so. Sometimes you are being sold a whole system when you need a $40 part.

Not cooling? Text me a photo of the unit.
