No cool air on a 90° Apple Valley afternoon? We're just north in Eagan, with crews staged near the Cedar Avenue corridor, so most repair calls in 55124 are out the door same day. Firm written quote first, no upsell, family-owned since 1988.
Fill this out and a real person calls you back within an hour, not a call center.
We've served Apple Valley since 1988, dispatching from our Eagan shop directly to the north, so calls are usually a quick run down Cedar Avenue (Highway 77) or across County Road 42. Whether you're in an original 1970s rambler near Alimagnet Lake, an established home off the Galaxie Avenue corridor, or one of the newer builds out by Cobblestone Lake or Quarry Point, our techs know the housing stock, the duct quirks, and the way Minnesota summers push undersized systems past their limit.
We've been repairing central A/C, heat pumps, and ductless systems for Apple Valley families since 1988. The approach hasn't changed: diagnose the real problem, explain the fix in plain English, write a firm quote, and only then do the work. If the repair isn't worth it, we'll tell you straight, and we'll give you a FREE second opinion if someone else has already quoted a replacement.
System runs but no cold air, usually a refrigerant leak, frozen coil, or compressor problem.
Vents barely pushing air, clogged filter, blower motor failure, or duct restriction.
A/C turns on and off every few minutes, thermostat, oversizing, or electrical control issue.
Frost on indoor coil or outdoor line, shut the system off and call before you damage the compressor.
Grinding, banging, or hissing, usually motor, bearing, fan, or refrigerant issues that worsen fast.
Summer bill jumping with no usage change? Losing efficiency, sometimes a tune-up, sometimes a real repair needed.
Water around the indoor unit or oily residue on outdoor lines, condensate drain or refrigerant leak.
Dead system, often a capacitor, contactor, thermostat wiring, or tripped breaker issue.

"A/C quit on a Saturday in July, 94 degrees outside our place near Alimagnet Lake. Bob's team got a tech down from Eagan that afternoon, diagnosed a bad capacitor, had the part on the truck, and we were cool again by dinner. Fair price, no BS."
"Another company told me I needed a $9,000 replacement. Called Bob Boldt for a second opinion, turned out to be a refrigerant leak on a 7-year-old unit. They fixed it for $480. Saved us thousands."
"Our A/C was short-cycling and blowing warm. Tech walked me through what he was checking, found the issue in 20 minutes, wrote a clear quote, and fixed it same-visit. No upselling, just the fix. We're regular customers now."
