Alan Lambert and Crew first removed the 50 year old heater and installed the new one.The next daya crew came in to remove the old asbestosair ducts and Lambert Heating and Air put in new ducts and had tocut ina new vent in the family room. Since some of the electrical for the condenser unithad to be put on the outside of the house,Lambert Heating & Air did a GREAT job covering it making it look nice. (because of a room addition on a cement slab some electrical had to be exposed on the outside of the house) All of the crew wereCourteous, Polite, Friendly and Very Conscientious. Only a portion of payment was required to get started on the job then a bit more in the middle and final payment was made afterlastinspections. Lambert Heating and Air took care of obtaining any and all permits required.The job tookonly 4business days. We have run the air a few times and it is WONDERFUL! After the So. Cal. heat wave last year we will beready for itthis year!

Arrived on time. Received a very favorable estimate.
Didn't try to sell me something that I didn't want or need.
Returned the following day to check operating system and temperatures through vents. Added small amount of refrigerant to
to make sure that the new system was full.

After over 30 years with horrible luck with contractors my faith has been restored. We have wanted central air and heating but were always put off by the expected cost and how difficult it is to find someone to work on your house, let alone come into your home. My wife found Lambert Service Now on Angies List, along with the e-mail addresses of three other A/C companies pulled from Angies List. I sent the same e-mail to all four. I explained in detail what I wanted and gave my contact information. Thirty minutes after the first e-mail was sent, I received my first of only two call backs from the four e-mails?s I sent out. Christianne from Lambert Service Now called and we set up an appointment for an estimate. An hour later I had an e-mail from her confirming our phone call and appointment time. The night before the appointment I received another phone call from Christianne confirming the next day?s appointment. The owner, Alan Lambert was on time, his work vehicle was clean and professional looking with the company name, products and services noted on the side. Alan was clean and professional. He put on shoe covers before enteringour home, as well as each and every visit, as did all of his workers. We spoke about what we wanted and he explained what he was going to do to insure we were buying what we needed, not what would make him the most money. He didn't say this but his honesty just comes through in that way. Each of the rooms and windows were measured, Alan explained this is one of the most important steps to getting the correct sized unit, one too large and you?re wasting money, too small and the unit is working too hard and wasting electricity. It took about an hour for Alan to measure everything, inspect the attic and electrical panel. We also went over locations to install the outdoor portion of the unit. When Alan was done he said he would like to write up the estimate at the office and come over when my wife was home. This was fine as I had another contractor coming over in the next couple of days. Quickly I'd like to note, the other company from Angie's List that called back, first almost tried to talk me out of it; "You do know this isn?t cheap?. Anyway he did come over, walked through each room and lifted the attic door with his clip board, ten minutes later he was gone and I had his estimate proving he was correct, he?s not cheap! Back to Lambert, Alan again showed up on time and we went over five different estimates that he worked up for us. He explained what each had over the others. He went over in detail the installation process and how long it would take. We were advised the installation would take 5 days,with two workers on site from 8 to 4:30. Each of these days his technician would be in and out as needed. I told Alan we would have to think on it as we had one more contractor coming over, a ?friend of a friend?. As soon as Alan pulled away from the curb, my wife and I made the decisionthatwe were going to go with Lambert Service Now. We phoned Alan, set up a time to sign the papers and I canceled the other contractor.Everything and I mean everything went as planned. The workers were on time, courteous, constantly picking up after themselves. Theylaiddrop-clothseverywhere they would be walking. If they left the drop cloth other than to go outside, they put booties on over their shoes. When they were done for the day, they cleaned up and vacuumed theareas they worked or walked through that day; they also organized all of their tools and supplies outside into one tidy area and before they left. Each day they asked it I had any questions or concerns. I highly recommend Lambert Service Now!
Installed central air and heat and all ducting.

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.
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.
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.
Based upon reviews in Angie's List, I called Lambert's Service Now to get an estimate to replacemy 35 year old heating and air conditioning units that still work, althoughnot very efficiently with very poor airflow. Alan Lambert arrived on time and throughly inspectedthe 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 sobut waiting until more serious problems develop in the future. He patiently explained the pro's and con's of this solution,and we decided thatwaiting would be the best alternative for my familyat 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.
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.
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 theremodeledspace 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.
Replaced a 30+ year old unit and redid all the ducting in a wood/ stucco single story structure.
