Customer Reviews
What Cabin Owners Say
"Hickory Home and Cabin Repair saved the day! Our hot tub went down right before a holiday weekend booking. They came out the same day, diagnosed the problem fast, and had it running before our guests arrived. Absolutely phenomenal service."

"AC stopped working mid-summer. Called Hickory and they were out within a couple hours. Fixed it quickly and the price was very fair. I won't call anyone else for my cabin maintenance needs."

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a mini-split installation cost?
A single-zone install typically runs $3,500 to $5,500 including equipment. Multi-zone systems for whole-cabin coverage range from $6,000 to $12,000 depending on zones and capacity. We provide a fixed quote after a site visit. No surprise charges.
How long does installation take?
A single-zone install is one day. A three-zone system is usually two days. We schedule around your booking calendar so guests are not in the cabin during installation.
Which mini-split brand is best for a rental cabin?
Mitsubishi and Daikin are the most reliable for high-use rental environments. Friedrich and LG are excellent mid-range options. We recommend based on your budget, cabin size, and how hard the system will run, not on which brand gives us the best margin.
Do mini-splits work in Smoky Mountain winters?
Yes. Modern cold-climate mini-splits heat efficiently down to single digits. For the coldest snaps we recommend a backup heat source, which we can integrate into the system design.
Can you add a zone to my existing mini-split?
Often, yes, if your outdoor unit has the capacity. We check the rated capacity and line-set limits before quoting. If the condenser is maxed out, we recommend a second single-zone system rather than overloading the existing one.
