The Mini Split Reef model

Flat pricing is the whole idea at Mini Split Reef. $2,000 covers one zone installed, materials and labor. $4,000 covers two zones and $6,000 covers three. Any true exception, like a very long line set or a panel upgrade the house already needed, gets named before work starts, never after.

How the local market usually prices

Most local shops price the traditional way: an estimator comes out, measures, and a quote follows. Ductless installs in Central Texas commonly run $3,000 to $6,000 per zone on a custom quote. Our flat rate sits at the very bottom of that range, and you know it before you pick up the phone.

Mini splits in Round Rock

Round Rock grew fast, and plenty of its 1990s and 2000s homes have a bonus room over the garage that bakes every summer. That one room is a classic single zone mini split job, and a posted $2,000 price makes it easy to decide whether it is worth fixing this year.

Questions

Straight answers

What if my job genuinely is not a standard install?

Then we say so before any work starts. A very long line set, a panel upgrade the house already needed, or unusually difficult mounting are the named exceptions, and you approve any adjustment first.

How do I verify any contractor's license?

Search the license number on the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation public license roster at tdlr.texas.gov. Every legitimate A/C contractor in Texas appears there. The license number on this page comes from that public roster.

Why do most companies quote in the home?

Custom quoting lets an estimator price each job on its specifics, and it is also a sales opportunity. It is the industry norm and it works for many buyers. We simply chose the other model: publish one price and keep it.
