Professional AC Repair for Bristol Homes

Historic homes and harbor views come with humidity. Your AC should handle it.

Our NATE-certified technicians arrive prepared, diagnose accurately, and repair correctly the first time. Same-day appointments, 24/7 emergency response, honest pricing.

We had one condenser stop. They came, found an electric problem, sent the electricians in their group, ordered the required electrical panel and we are back up and running.
These people REALLY know what they are doing!!
Corey Mayo took care of it this morning- he was polite, informative, and efficient.
I was very pleased with GEM plumbing. They came when they said they would and explained everything. I would highly recommend them.
Gem has always been my lifesaver and yesterday they came through again. When GEM came yesterday for the annual boiler cleaning they discovered that my boiler was leaking carbon monoxide gas. It had not been leaking the year before so carbon monoxide leaking from your burner. It’s like a tire that’s going flat in the air is coming out. It only gets worse. They gave me an estimate on replacing it, I did some research and they said that they couldn’t install it the next day. The price was in line with everything I had researched and the Bernar rated very high on Trustpilot as did the warranty. Having worked with GEM before, I trust them and I made the deal. Today two men arrived two more came then the Electrician.They got the old burner out they got the new burner installed. They cleaned up the basement and I now have heat and no carbon monoxide.Thanks for being there again GEM.
John arrived within the time window, was courteous and professional. He explained what he was doing throughout the service call.

FAQ

Do you provide same-day AC repair in Bristol?

Yes. GEM offers same-day air conditioning repair throughout Bristol, from the historic district along Hope Street to waterfront properties on Poppasquash Point.

Can you work on AC in Bristol’s historic homes?

Absolutely. Many Bristol properties date to the 18th and 19th centuries with retrofitted cooling systems. Our technicians understand preservation considerations and work within the constraints of historic construction.

What energy incentives are available to Bristol homeowners?

As a Rhode Island Energy partner, GEM helps Bristol residents access rebates for energy-efficient cooling equipment. We’ll explain available programs and help you maximize savings.

Why does my Bristol waterfront home stay humid?

Harbor proximity to Narragansett Bay creates higher ambient humidity than inland locations. If your home feels clammy despite running AC, you may have undersized equipment, low refrigerant, or condensate drainage problems. Our technicians diagnose the specific cause.

How often should Bristol homeowners schedule AC maintenance?

Annual maintenance is essential for Bristol homes. Coastal exposure accelerates equipment wear from salt air, and historic construction adds complexity that benefits from regular professional attention.
