Any recommendations for a cheap plumber for a simple job?

I know it's been asked, but I didn't see any recent answers.

Looking to rent a place for the first 3 weeks of August (possibly last week of July). 3 bedroom minimum. Prefer Hearthstone/ Finchley/ Chateau area but will look at any location. Basement is fine.

Looking for someone that works with hvac to come down to my house to check out my ac to make sure it is working properly. As of now it is but few days ago it wasn't.

Thanks

I think the standard is $150. If you find someone for cheaper please let me know but I hear Izzy Zerken comes highly recommended. AMZ Heating and Cooling.

Just wondering, if it's working fine now, why pay money to have someone look at it? How do you know it wasn't just frozen over and there is nothing to do now?

it froze over on Friday nighy. Afterwards I changed the filter which was pretty dirty. Let it defrost for a few hours and now it works. I don't want it to happen again. So I would want then to go thru the ac to see if it needs freon or if anything is not insulated correctly etc... the ac always breaks at the worst times so if I can avoid it happening again....
