Clay scene: a family waving from their warm living room as Gus heads out the door with his toolbox

About us

We're a small heating and cooling crew. We work on homes in Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Eagle and Kuna.

About Tinkerdale

The clay folks you see around this site are our mascots. Each one is modeled on someone on the crew. That's them in the photo.

How we work

  • We look for why it broke, not just which part broke.
  • You hear what's wrong and what it costs before we start. You decide.
  • When we're done, we test it and clean up after ourselves.

What neighbors say

A few words from people we've kept warm.

    Our furnace quit on a cold Sunday morning. Gus showed us the bad part and told us what it would cost before he touched anything. He cleaned up after himself, too.

  • Photo of Darius Clay figure of Darius waving

    The AC was blowing warm air. Nina showed me the worn-out part and explained it in plain English. No pushing.

    Walt put a mini-split in our bonus room. Before he left, he showed us how the remote works.
