Hear from Our Customers
Your AC breaking down in Lawrence isn’t just uncomfortable—it’s a problem that compounds by the hour. The house heats up, kids get cranky, sleep becomes impossible, and you’re stuck wondering if you’ll be waiting days for someone to show up.
Here’s what changes when you call us. You get a real person on the phone, not a recording. You get a technician dispatched within hours, not days. You get a diagnosis that makes sense and a repair that actually fixes the problem—not a bandaid that fails next week.
We’ve been doing emergency AC service in Lawrence, CA since 1985. That’s four decades of late-night calls, same-day repairs, and customers who needed their system working yesterday. We know what it’s like when your AC quits during a heatwave. That’s why we don’t make you wait.
We’ve been handling emergency air conditioner repair in Lawrence, CA for over 40 years. We’re not a franchise or a call center—we’re a family-run business that’s been serving Santa Clara County since before most of our competitors existed.

You call us—day or night—and talk to a real person who understands what you’re dealing with. We ask a few quick questions about your system and symptoms, then dispatch a licensed technician to your location in Lawrence, CA. Most calls get same-day service.
When our tech arrives, they run a full diagnostic to find the actual problem—not just the obvious one. Could be a failed capacitor, a refrigerant leak, a bad compressor, or something simpler. You’ll get a clear explanation of what’s wrong and what it’ll take to fix it, along with upfront pricing before any work starts.
Once you approve the repair, we get to work. We carry quality parts on the truck for most common failures, so there’s usually no waiting on orders.

You’re back to cool air, usually within hours of your call.

Emergency AC repair in Lawrence, CA means we show up when you need us—not when it’s convenient for us. That includes nights, weekends, and holidays. California summers don’t wait for business hours, and neither do we.
You get a full system diagnostic, not just a quick look at the obvious problem. A lot of emergency failures have underlying causes that’ll come back if you don’t address them. We find those and give you the option to fix them now or monitor them later.
Lawrence sits in Santa Clara County, where aging HVAC systems and extreme heat create the perfect storm for breakdowns. Nearly half of all service calls in California are repairs or replacements of older units that finally gave out. If your system is over 10 years old, there’s a good chance this won’t be your last repair—but we’ll tell you honestly whether fixing it makes sense or if you’re better off replacing it.
We also offer transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Emergency repairs cost more than regular service calls because we’re coming outside normal hours, but we don’t gouge you. You’ll know what it costs before we start, and we offer 15% discounts for seniors and military families in Lawrence.
Most emergency calls in Lawrence get same-day service, and we’re available 24/7. Response time depends on where you’re located in Lawrence and how many calls are ahead of you, but we prioritize emergencies—especially during heat waves when AC failures spike.
When you call, we’ll give you an honest estimate of when our technician can arrive. If it’s going to be several hours, we’ll tell you upfront. If we can get there faster, we will. We’ve been doing this for 40 years, and we know that when your AC is down in the middle of summer, every hour counts.
If you’re in a situation where the heat is dangerous—elderly family members, young kids, medical conditions—let us know. We’ll do everything we can to prioritize your call.
Capacitor failures are the most common culprit. Capacitors help your compressor and fan motors start up, and they wear out faster in extreme heat. When they fail, your AC won’t turn on or won’t cool properly.
Refrigerant leaks are another frequent issue. If your system is low on refrigerant, it can’t absorb heat effectively, and you’ll notice weak airflow or warm air coming from the vents. Leaks usually happen at connection points or due to corrosion over time.
Compressor failures are less common but more serious. The compressor is the heart of your AC system, and when it goes, you’re usually looking at a major repair or full replacement. Dirty coils, electrical issues, and clogged filters can also cause emergency breakdowns—especially if the system has been neglected. Regular maintenance catches most of these before they become emergencies, but if you’re already dealing with a failure, we’ll diagnose it and get you back up and running.
It depends on what’s broken. Simple fixes like replacing a capacitor or cleaning a clogged drain line might run a few hundred dollars. More involved repairs—like fixing a refrigerant leak, replacing a fan motor, or addressing electrical issues—can cost more.
Emergency service does come with a premium because we’re dispatching technicians outside regular business hours. But we give you upfront pricing before we start any work, so there are no surprises. If the repair cost is high enough that replacing the system makes more sense, we’ll tell you that too.
The average HVAC repair in the U.S. costs around $350, but emergency calls can run higher depending on the issue and the time of day. We also offer 15% discounts for seniors and military families in Lawrence, which can help offset some of the cost. If you’re worried about price, just ask—we’ll walk you through your options and help you make the call that makes sense for your situation and your budget.
If your system is under 10 years old and the repair cost is reasonable, fixing it usually makes sense. If it’s over 15 years old and you’re looking at a major repair—like a compressor or coil replacement—you’re often better off replacing the whole unit.
Here’s why: older systems are less efficient, so they cost more to run every month. They also use outdated refrigerants that are being phased out, which makes future repairs more expensive. And if one major component failed, others are probably close behind.
We’ll give you an honest assessment when we’re at your house. If the repair buys you another five years of reliable cooling, we’ll recommend it. If you’re throwing money at a system that’s going to keep breaking down, we’ll tell you that too. Nearly half of all HVAC service calls in California are for aging systems that need replacement, so you’re not alone in facing this decision. We just want to make sure you have the information you need to choose what’s right for you.
Yes. We’ve been repairing AC systems in Lawrence and Santa Clara County for over 40 years, and our technicians are trained on all major brands—Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, York, and more.
Different brands have different quirks, but the core components—compressors, capacitors, coils, fans—work the same way across most systems. We carry common replacement parts on our trucks, so if your system needs a standard repair, we can usually handle it the same day.
If your unit is older or uses a less common part, we’ll let you know upfront if we need to order something. But in most cases, we can diagnose and fix your AC on the first visit, regardless of brand. That’s the advantage of working with a team that’s been doing this since 1985—we’ve seen just about everything.
Close your blinds and curtains to block out direct sunlight. Heat gain through windows makes your house warmer faster, and reducing it helps keep indoor temperatures manageable until we arrive.
Turn off any heat-generating appliances you’re not using—ovens, dryers, computers, even incandescent light bulbs. Drink water, stay hydrated, and if you have vulnerable family members (elderly, very young, or with medical conditions), consider moving them to a cooler part of the house or even a neighbor’s place if it’s dangerously hot.
Don’t try to fix the AC yourself unless you know what you’re doing. AC systems involve high voltage electricity and pressurized refrigerant, both of which are dangerous if handled incorrectly. And if you make the problem worse, the repair gets more expensive. Just leave the system off, keep everyone safe and comfortable as best you can, and let us handle the repair when we get there.
