Response from Lambert Heating and Air Conditioning
Dear [Member Name Removed], I am confused about your recent review (for the work we did 10 months ago). According to your review, you stated that we did not give you a written quote. We gave this quote last April at your appointment and you signed it. Had you notified us that you may have lost it following our original service call, we would have provided you with another copy. We are mailing another copy of this quote in the mail. I hope this clears up any misunderstandings you had in this situation and with our company. Sincerely, Alan Lambert, Owner Lambert Heating and Air Conditioning Office: (562) 861-2727 Cell: (562) 879-7620 Fax: (775) 269-8540 alan@LambertHeatingandAir.com www.LambertHeatingandAir.com

Lambert's has a company, Home Services, who answered the phone for them in the morning of Feb. 23 about 8:45 AM. The person had no record of me having called the night before and seemed to be very confused throughout our conversation. He finally gave me Lambert's number. Mr. Lambert needs to have his number in the Angie's list ad, not Home Services.
Description of Work: I have a 60-year-old gas floor heater with frozen rods, both the pilot light and the gas switch. Daniel simply needed to push down on the rod while twisting to clear the jam. Any plumber facing a heater this old could have talked me into anything during this cold spell; however, Daniel never mentioned upgrading my equipment, simply fixing what I had. I am so pleased that I am going to hire this service to come back and replace the heating system in June. I was going to hire a neighborhood person to do the job, but having met this new heating service has definitely changed my mind.

Lambert's Service Now lives up to it's name. they answered phone calls promptly and courteously, cheerfully too I might add. The estimate was fair and within dollars of the other two that I got. Mr. Lambert and his team are careful, efficient and clean. The men wore protective booties when in the house, put down drop cloths to protect the floors and collects attic detritus, and swept up immediately upon finishing each day or each portion of the job. They worked very quickly and answered any questions that I had. We did not have occasion to use either heating or cooling until some months after the installation. They were more than willing to come back out to the house several times at no charge to insure that everything was working properly. First to trouble shoot the air as the wrong fuses had been put in by the electrician and then much later when we had questions about the heating and one of the ducts. They are extremely accommodating. We are very pleased with our new system.
Description of Work: Mr. Lambert and crew installed a new heating and air conditioning system in our 90 year old house with a very low pitched roof. They removed old duct work from under the house and installed new ducts in the attic. Not an easy job because there is little head room. They installed the heating unit in attic and the air conditioning unit outside. The air conditioning unit was a special, narrow (18 inches wide) unit because code demanded 5 foot clearance which could not be achieved with a standard unit. Mr. Lambert went out of his way to find this type of unit and give me pros and cons of various manufacturers. The installation of appliances and ducts was done first and then several weeks later they had to come back to hook everything up and test it, after we had finished the complete electrical re-wire.

I wish all estimates for home repair and maintenance went as well as this one.
Description of Work: Based upon reviews in Angie's List, I called Lambert's Service Now to get an estimate to replace my 35 year old heating and air conditioning units that still work, although not very efficiently with very poor airflow. Alan Lambert arrived on time and throughly inspected the entire system, including the duct work in our attic. He was very professional and wanted to know our life style to best meet our heating and air conditioning needs. During the inspection, he concluded that the systems themselves were working just fine, but that there were two areas where the ducting had come apart and that the filter needed to be replaced. Alan showed me how to reconnect one of the ducts (which I did on the spot) and he reconnected the other duct which I couldn't easily reach. He also replaced my air filter with one I had on hand. In testing the systems after these repairs, it worked better than it had in years. Although he was prepared to provide an estimate to replace the entire system, Alan suggested I consider not doing so but waiting until more serious problems develop in the future. He patiently explained the pro's and con's of this solution,and we decided that waiting would be the best alternative for my family at this time. Even with this decision, and at my request, Alan still provided an estimate to replace the system. Since Alan actually did perform services (labor to change the filter and reconnect a duct), I offered to pay him for a service call. He said there would be no charge as the repairs were very minor and that wasn't his intent in helping me . I was very very impressed with Alan and his knowledge of the industry, his patience in explaining everything and his willingness to do what was right for his client and not necessarily for his immediate business interests. I will definitely call Alan when I do need his services, and will recommend him to anyone looking for such services.

Very well ... fortunately my heating unit was enclosed in the attic and did not require a lot of servicing. But, Lambert was very helpful with the services he provided including adding more duct tape around an opening near the heating unit to prevent further loss of heat. He also provided a reusable filter - one that I could rinse out once it became full of dust. He provided some other pointers as well.
Description of Work: Alan Lambert was a pleasure to work with. He came to estimate work on my central heating unit. He was very helpful and the opening price ($99 for the work) was so reasonable that I decided to 'hire' Lambert to complete the repair work. He replaced a battery for my wall thermostat (I didn't know about this to my embarassment ...); he checked and serviced the heating unit itself; he checked and cleaned all the vents and replaced the filter(s). Lambert also performed some related tasks and made suggestions on weather-proofing my attic. He was most helpful, patient and easy to follow. Thanks so much for including this business among your list of contractors. I would definitely use Lambert's Service Now again and I would recommend the company to my friends.

We called on Monday. The service was scheduled for Wednesday between 1-3 PM. The fellow who came arrived within that time and was very thorough. He took care of all the items as described. Was very personable. Made a call to find that he could order a better fitting filter for our unit which he will bring when he returns in the fall. Gave us some advice regarding the ducts and duct cleaning. He used a carpet in front of the unit as he disassembled it, so as not to make a mess. Offered to wear shoe covers which was unnecessary for us. Good experience.
Description of Work: He took the unit apart and cleaned it. Also checked the refrigerant level and cleaned the condenser. He also checked the heater unit. He will come back in the fall and check the heating system again. That is included with the total.

We had an old building with no insulation to speak of that had previously been worked on by some shady contractors who had cut ducting, power and gas to the central unit. After we had these problems fixed by plumbers and electricians the 30+ year old unit required having the main blower motor replaced and eventually other parts failed that were either too expensive or couldn't be found altogether. The unit was also not sufficient for the remodeled space and so we started looking for someone to come in and fix the air conditioning from top to bottom. We got quotations from several contractors and big name companies and they were all at least twice as much as Alan's estimate, additionally all the other people seemed to not care for the outcome of the project and would either not handle the ducting and told us to hire someone else or tried to sell us more stuff regardless of our budget. Alan was vested in our entire project from the beginning and answered all our questions and suggested a system that has been trouble free for fairly heavy two+ years of usage thus far. He really worked with us to make sure that the new unit would not only be sized correctly but noticed that the existing unit was installed in a way that was compromising the roof structure and we had repeated leaks from around it. He worked closely with the roofing contractor and installed the new 5 ton unit replacing the older 2 ton unit. The new unit went in on the roof with a new integrated roof mount that the unit just sits on as opposed to having conduits coming out of the unit out in direct sun and then routed back in the roof crawl area. The new installation not only looks much cleaner, but there is a lot less stuff exposed to the elements to degrade over time. This new installation further fixed vibration issues that the old unit was causing, we only noticed this when the new unit came online and the shaking that we had been so used to was no longer there. Overall we were really pleased with Alan's work and would certainly hire and recommend him to others.
Description of Work: Replaced a 30+ year old unit and redid all the ducting in a wood/ stucco single story structure.

The work and customer service was excellent. We couldn't be more happier with their attention to detail and care for our home. Being the curious home owner on how everything works, Alan took the time to educate me about the how hvac system worked. This enabled me to better understand the features and benefits when deciding on a new system. Alan and the team at "Lambert's Service Now" is A+++++++++. In addition, I had 8+ different companies come out and give me estimates, and by far, Alan's approach to solving our problem was more creative and budget conscious than anyone else.
Description of Work: Our old a/c finally clunked out, and we needed a new one. Alan and his team put in a brand new furnace and a/c unit in our home. They also replaced the a/c line.

We haven't had any luck getting the heater repaired. I was facing upcoming surgery and didn't want to come home to a cold house. Mr. Lambert was amazing, he fixed our heater and it has been working ever since. It the first time we've had consistent heat in years. The Best.

He had a hard time working on my a/c unit. He wasn’t able to figure what was causing the problem at first. He had come several times. When the times he came, the fan wouldn’t come on and when he was gone it would come on. I wasn’t sure how he didn’t know what was causing the problem. We finally figured out that it was the circuit upstairs. He did finally get it fix, I just wish it wouldn’t have taken so long. He was a nice guy and very polite, I just wish it didn’t take him so many trips to fix the problem.

Response from Lambert Heating and Air Conditioning
We needed to make multiple trips to Member's home because his furnace was working each time that we arrived at his home. It is very difficult to fix a furnace that working. We could change parts out at random to see if perhaps one of them was the bad part; however, this method is usually very costly for our customers. We have found that it is a better use of our customer's money to change only the parts that are not working, rather than change out several parts and hope that one of them was the non-working part. Once we were finally able to observe Member's furnace when it was not working, we were able to locate the bad part and replace it at a much lower cost than if we had tried to change out several other parts at random looking for the bad part.

As CA and my local city were offering rebates for new HVAC systems, I decided to replace my old(er) heater and barely functioning AC. I also wanted the heating system moved to the attic so that the closet could be used for storage. Alan engineered an elegant solution to get the heating system into the attic with minimal ceiling intrusion. The system (Amana) works great; Alan and his team were prompt, professional and responded to questions and concerns. I definitely would use Lambert's Service Now again.
