Get matched with top heating and air conditioning pros in Carpinteria, CA

"I am so pleased, Lawsons construction came to my home the same day I called them. They provided me with a quote and was not pushy to close a deal. A couple days later I decided to go with them because they were the most reasonable and fast responsive company I ever had experience with. They put a new roof on my home and I am so happy with the work. Highly recommend them."

"Very good! They are very efficient and the price is reasonable."

"DO NOT hire SoCal Climate Control (or AttiClean; Mike Molloy owns both and uses both for jobs) unless you want them to waste your time and take your money for an incomplete job that violates building code. We hired AttiClean for a simple job: install dampers on 2 duct lines, route a new duct to our kitchen, enlarge our intake grill & duct, and insulate our supply plenum. None of these 4 tasks were completed without issues. They showed up with the incorrect damper sizes, incorrect return grill size, and incorrect return duct size. Day 1 consisted of their workers running around getting correct material and concluded with them cutting into an attic beam that was not professionally assessed. When I asked the worker if he could cut the beam, he replied "I don't know" which was incredibly concerning. The job was stopped so that the co-owner's HVAC "professionals" at his other company, SoCal Climate Control, could resume the work the next day and assess the beam. Day 2: The co-owners Mike Molloy and Todd Morelli determined via picture they could cut the beam (a licensed individual never inspected the beam in person). Mike's workers from SoCal Climate Control were scheduled for 12pm, but they didn't showed up until after 5pm. They worked very fast, and concluded the job a little after 8pm. I had concerns that the workers would be tired and rushed and do a bad job, but I didn't know how bad until the next day when I went into the attic to see why my condenser pump wouldn't stop running. To start, I could barely even open the door. The new 18" duct line completely covered the attic door and encircled the attic entrance. This is a violation of building code and is illegal. As of today Mike, Todd, AttiClean, and SoCal Climate Control refuse to abide by code and fix this. Once I got around the ducting, I noticed 2 other issues: 1) there was also a large tear in the return duct at the return plenum, and 2) the new 18" duct was smothering our condensation pump and the workers wound the condensation line so tightly with a kink, it couldn't drain (hence the noise). This was a major issue because eventually our drain pan would fill and leak into our attic and ceiling. It took another 4 days to get back on the calendar and we were instructed to not use our AC in the middle of August until the repair. Day 3: AttiClean was supposed to arrive at 8am. They never showed. Instead, SoCal Climate Control got pulled in and didn't arrive until after 3pm (their window was 12-2pm). They tore apart the new ducting and attempted to reroute the line, but concluded they would have to find another solution. In the removal process, not only did they tear up the entire 18" duct line (exposing fiber glass insulation everywhere) they damaged another duct line not a part of the job (smashed our bathroom fan duct, rendering it completely unusable). Since it was late on a Saturday and no AC store was open, they said they would loosely put everything back together and come back the next week with the necessary material to finish the job. Not only did they never come back, they left us with more issues than they arrived with on Day 3. The attic entrance was still blocked and still violating building code; they never insulated our supply plenum per the original work order; the tear in the return duct to the return plenum was significantly larger and I'm pretty sure we have fiber glass fibers blowing now into our FAU and breathing air; the 18" duct line was completely torn up throughout; they smashed and tore apart our bathroom duct; and they removed a good chunk of our newly done attic insulation and never replaced it. The co-owner of AttiClean and owner of SoCal Climate Control, Mike Molloy, emailed us that they finished the job per the work order and if we want any of this fixed we would have to pay them the same cost of the job (essentially double). What a scam: "I'm going to completely block your attic entrance for $900; you want that fixed? $800 more please." Images can speak for themselves. Please save yourself the time and energy and go with another company. We are now in the process of hiring another company to clean up their mess. All of this could have been avoided with better management, quality training, and appropriate processes in place; a direct reflection of the leadership and ownership of these companies."

"They did fine"

"Temp Air personnel are responsible, honest, knowledgable, and their customer service is top of the line. They were accommodating with a scheduled that worked for us. Also, the techs that came to our house were professionals and answered all of our questions. I highly recommend them."

"GREAT EXPERIENCE - Myra worked tirelessly with my insurance company to assure that necessary repairs were completed in a timely manner and appropriately reimbursed. The repairs were needed by my elderly mother in order to remain in her home, and Myra was very sensitive to our situation - sending a crew out for estimates and repairs weeks before any other contractor was willing to accept the job. Quality work completed quickly. We were regularly made aware of the status of the repairs , and Myra maintained constant communication with our (reluctant) insurance company to make sure our needs were met."
