Why do some Chapel Hill homes experience uneven temperatures between rooms?

Many homes in Chapel Hill were built during different decades and may have undergone multiple additions or renovations. Aging ductwork, insulation deficiencies, airflow restrictions, and improperly sized equipment can all contribute to hot and cold spots throughout the house.

Are sewer line issues common in older Chapel Hill neighborhoods?

They can be. Established neighborhoods often have older underground infrastructure, and tree roots may also affect sewer lines over time. Recurring drain backups, foul odors, and slow drains throughout the home may indicate a sewer line issue that requires professional inspection.

Is surge protection worth installing in Chapel Hill?

Many homeowners choose whole-home surge protection because thunderstorms are common throughout the Triangle. Surge protection helps shield HVAC equipment, appliances, computers, entertainment systems, and other electronics from damaging voltage fluctuations.

Very nice young man. Professional and took the time to explain issues and my options.

If I could give 10 stars I would! I needed some extensive electrical work done and after looking over everything, they gave me an estimate and would get back to me re: dates/times. They contacted me that afternoon and scheduled the work for 2 days later. Elijah and Corey were very professional, kept us informed about what was going on, etc. The work was completed in a timely manner, but unfortunately the power company had their own agenda and didn't come out to turn the power back on until hours later. The guys stayed with us, giving us updates about calls they and their boss made to try and get a specific time. They were professional throughout and very patient. The next morning first thing, Elijah was back to label the breaker box and make sure everything was working correctly, as it was so late when they left the night before to do those things. I can't say enough good things about how the entire experience was. Highly recommend them!!

Kendall did an excellent and thorough job - he inspected all the electrical outlets we were having trouble with, and pro-actively examined other minor electrical issues and made sure everything is working well in the house. Kendall was professional, friendly, and honest. We are very happy with his service, and will use Ted’s Air, Plumbing, Electric for our future needs.

Eli was , is awesome! He came out as part of my check up for the electrical service and discovered that my front electrical outlet outside my townhouse was out. He was able to replace it on the spot is very helpful. He went the extra mile and caulked around it said debris would not get in it again.

It was a pleasure to have Levi Strader to complete our annual plumbing evaluation. He was so polite and professional. He did an extremely thorough job of explaining the process and the “whys” of his findings. Levi made it easy to follow his recommendations and the benefits of each. We are strongly considering his recommendations. We’ve already requested Levi for next year’s plumbing evaluation!

I have nothing but good things to say about Ted's HVAC & Plumbing. I became a member of Ted's Club because of their core values and it simply made sense to us. A personal thank you to Ted's team that have helped us out on our HVAC maintenance. Liam came out and is a true professional who fully demonstrated the core values of Ted's.

New update: Omar came out for the HVAC system maintenance check and found no major issues. A very professional and friendly experience. The price listed in this review is for the annual maintenance package. Perhaps higher than average, but the work always seems great.
