The Honest Answers to Common Furnace Repair Hesitations
Four hesitations we hear on first calls, and the straight answers behind each one.
“The diagnostic fee feels like a trap.”
Some contractors charge $200 CAD to show up and discount nothing off the repair. Our diagnostic starts at $99 CAD and is waived when you authorise the repair on the same visit. The fee covers a full combustion analysis, CO check, and a written fault report you keep regardless.
“You cannot tell if the technician is really licensed.”
Ontario requires TSSA G1 or G2 certification for any gas furnace work. Ours hold both. Certificate numbers appear on every invoice per B149 fuel code. You can verify any number on the TSSA public registry before the technician starts.
“Nobody will publish the price.”
Our four CAD scope bands are published on this page: diagnostic $99 to $149, standard repair $150 to $950, major repair $600 to $1,500, full replacement $3,500 to $8,500. Scope named, not hidden behind adjectives.
“The furnace is 15 years old, is it worth repairing?”
At 15 years with an intact heat exchanger, 5 to 10 more service years. At 20+, the 95% AFUE efficiency gap justifies replacement. Written repair-vs-replace recommendation on every diagnostic, with the numbers.

Thornhill Dispatch Across Two Municipalities
Thornhill sits across the Vaughan and Markham boundary, which sometimes complicates permits and service scheduling with other contractors. For us it is one dispatch area: Yonge Street, Bathurst, Highway 7, and Steeles cover L3T and L4J the same day.
Where a replacement requires a permit, we file with the correct municipality for your side of the boundary so the install is not delayed by paperwork sent to the wrong office.
Thornhill Homes and Heating Systems
Royal Orchard, Thornlea, and Uplands hold established housing from the 1960s to 1980s, where furnaces past 18 years, older thermostats, and mid-efficiency venting are common findings.
German Mills and newer pockets run high-efficiency condensing units with ECM blowers. Comfort complaints there usually come down to staging, thermostat compatibility, or a condensate blockage rather than a failed furnace.
What Thornhill Customers Say
“Furnace kept locking out overnight. The diagnostic found a dirty flame sensor and a weak ignitor, both replaced on the spot for the price quoted.”
“New smart thermostat was never wired correctly by the previous installer. They added the C-wire properly and the short cycling stopped immediately.”
“Replacement handled end to end, including the permit on the Markham side. No back and forth, no surprise charges on the final invoice.”
