Lawson AC and Plumbing is a valuable asset to our community. As a person with a modest income who works hard, I can rely on their honest opinion and professional service. Fabian has visited my 1979 house three times, addressing various issues such as hot water heaters, sinks, and showers. He ensures that each job is completed correctly and at a reasonable price. I am extremely grateful for this excellent local business, which consistently provides trustworthy and fairly priced services.

We have been customers of Lawson for about 17 years. Our old A/C units finally died and Scott Holland gave us a great price on replacements, told us how long it would take, and made everything incredibly smooth and easy. Sebastian and his crew were professional and worked so hard to get everything done in the two-day time frame. We could not be more pleased!

Changed out my two bowl kitchen sink to single bowl sink. Did all the work myself until I realized that my drain needed to be rerouted. Contacted Lawson and they literally had someone out to my house within the hour to get this done for me. No additional fees.they came in assessed what needed to be done and got to work. Completed the drain reroute, hooked up the disposal, made sure everything worked, no leaks and looked good. They cleaned up and were on their way in and out in 35 mins. You guys have earned a customer. Thank you so much

We had a lovely experience buying a heat pump from Lawson Air Conditioning and Plumbing, Inc. Chris Ivey was knowledgeable, professional, and low key. He explained the different types, made suggestions for us to consider and treated us like family. There was no hard sell.rather, Chris treated us as if we were intelligent partners. Chris and the others at Lawson Air make it extremely worthwhile to buy locally.

I am so impressed with the great job they did and at a reasonable price. Thank goodness for good old fashioned hometown service. It is nice to know people like this still exist. Thank you so much!

My AC went out Friday evening, 6/18/21; called around, no one would come out next day til I got a hold of Lawson AC via a friend; they sent technician Cody out next day, mid-morning, had AC by 11am for a reasonable price. With 2 little ones in the house, it was needed, plus a wife who did not get a good night's sleep with just fans on, now its a happy life for me. :- thanks to Cody and the Lawson team.
