He came out the day as promised, communicated very well, showed me tips on how to do some things to avoid unnecessary costs and was upbeat the whole time. These guys are awesome! What you see and expect is what you get. No games or disappointment.

In October, 2017 my gas heater broke down. Heater only 14 years old. Dave Lawler tried for 2 weeks replacing part after part to get heater working. What it basically came down to was a new heater. Lawler gave me a great price on a new heater and was wonderful with installing heater. Great company! Recommend Highly!

Their work was excellent. They arrived as scheduled and finished on time. Dave and his crew are very talented HVAC people. I plan to have them work on my other properties.

Dave the owner of Lawler Heating installed my a/c and heating unit 6 years ago, as well as my tank-less water heater. He is a really good guy. He is friendly and easy to work with. He doesn't try to sell you stuff you don't need. He doesn't mind answering your questions. He is just a really nice guy.

They came out on emergency on a Sunday and were very good about keeping us up to date as to when they were arriving and handled the problem quickly and efficiently. They were genuine and helped the problem on hand and didn't try to sell us on anything else.

My AC stopped working over the weekend during 90 degree temperatures. I scheduled an appointment for first thing Monday morning, and as usual Tito showed up right on time. He quickly diagnosed the problem as a broken capacitor for the fan motor. He had the replacement part on his truck, swapped it out, checked and topped off the freon levels, and reminded me of preventative maintence that I can do myself. My house is cool again. I trust Lawler to arrive on time, diagnose problems quickly, and perform the required work with excellent workmanship.

As always, they showed up when scheduled and did the service requested. We have been using them for years. Dave and his crew have proven themselves to be honest, dependable, and punctual.

After I installed the thermostat (very simple installation, just connect same color wires), the heater ran for an hour and again shut down.  The following morning (11/15/12), I called Lawler and told the woman who answered the phone what was going on.  She said she would have the repairman call me.  NO CALLS.  The following morning (11/16/12), I called again.  The same woman said she would have the repairman call me.  AGAIN NO CALL, so I called again - she said she spoke with the repairman and he asked if I replaced the thermostat - FOR THE SECOND TIME IN TWO DAYS,  I TOLD HER I REPLACED IT.  HOWEVER, THE REPAIRMAN NEVER CALLED ME THAT DAY EITHER. 
The following morning, (11/17/12), I was beside myself because I had no heat, it was cold, and not knowing what else to do, I called the POLICE.  The police officer told me to stop payment on the check because Lawler had not done the job I had paid them for and to call another HVAC company which I did.  The new company came out and installed a new part on the front of the unit and it worked perfectly. 
On 2/20/13, I received a letter in the mail telling me Lawler had turned this case over to the DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S BAD CHECK RESTITUTION DEPARTMENT.  They also sent me a copy of the form that they had supposedly sent to the District Attorney. 
I followed up with the District Attorney's office and found out that they don't even handle this kind of an issue because it was not a "bad check" - checks are considered "bad" when there are no funds in the account to cover the check.  The woman I spoke with in the DA's office also told me they never received any paperwork from Lawler - so Lawler was threatening me hoping I would get frightened and send them the money.  
This company is one of the worst companies I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with and I would advise Angie's List people to stay away from them.  Can you imagine - the heater wasn't working after their repairman came to fix it and when I called to let them know the unit wasn't working (3 times over the following two days), their repairman never returned my calls. 
And then to threaten me with the DA - well it speaks for itself. 


Response from Lawler Heating & Air Conditioning
"[member name removed] called on November 1st for a maintenance service on her gas furnace. We scheduled a mutual time on November 14th, 2012. The technician with 35 years experience, traveled to the home at 10:25 am. When we arrived the furnace was not working. The technician found the thermostat was not sending a signal to the furnace. The technician quoted $75 for a Honeywell thermostat and $88 in labor to install the thermostat and perform the maintenance. The customer insisted she would replace the thermostat herself. The technician proceeded to perform the maintenance with thermostat jumped out and charged her $80 for the service and $7.00 for the air filter. A maintenance service checks all the furnace safeties and the mechanical operation of the furnace, which was operating properly with the exception of the thermostat. The technician left the home at 11:27 am. When [member name removed] called to state she had no heat, of course we asked if she changed the thermostat because this was the only problem we found. We spoke to the technician and he stated we would have to come out to her home again to troubleshoot the problem. [member name removed] was irate. Usually we do not tell the customer a technician will call them directly, because it is our office's job to communicate with the customers on the telephone and a technicians job to repair your system at your home. We believe [member name removed] should have forwarded us a copy of the repair work from the other company before she stopped payment on our check. We believe this is unfair to our company."
