Fox has been an excellent service company for heating, air conditioning, and electrical services. Their staff are very capable, friendly, efficient, and thorough in the work they have done. We have used their services during the past 14 years or so for maintenance, repair, and replacement of heating and air conditioning systems and also for the repair and installation of a number of overhead fans with their associated wiring requirements. One example must be given. One AC unit began to operate erratically. The technician checked the entire unit, examined the remote distribution components in the attic, and inspected the piping feeds connecting the units in the system. He found the problem to be a minute sized leak in a refrigerant pipe which had been incorrectly installed by the original supplier (not Fox). The leak was in a buried underground conduit below the house foundation! The repair required a full day to resolve due to the existence of a fire ant bed at the point where there was a need to excavate and the need to pull the refrigerant line through the opened conduit. This was done on a rainy day. The technician was thoroughly drenched by the time the repair was completed and should have been very unhappy. Yet he found time to explain the entire proceeding to us and was very informative as he proceeded. The bill when it came was in line with what the initial conversation had estimated. We are extremely pleased by their workmanship, their promptness, and their services. They provide all that one expects from a service company and more.
Pros: Fast, efficient, thorough, straightforward
Cons: None

So I called Fox to come out and look at replacing a faucet in my bathroom shower. It wasn't going to be a real simple job because a component behind the wall would have to be replaced. But access would've been easy because a section of sheetrock can be removed to get at it. The Fox tech took a quick look at the job, and then went out to his truck to write up an estimate. Well, was I surprised when he came back with a quote of $568 to do the work! I'm no expert, but my guess is that an experienced plumber could get this done in an hour or less. What a rip-off. Don't call these guys unless you just have no other option. I decided it would be cheaper to just pay the service call fee and get someone else.
Pros: Same day response
Cons: Crazy pricing
