We got quotes from three different Burlington/Hamilton-based home comfort companies to replace our AC and Furnace (one of which was part of a larger group of companies). Cassandra from Lancaster was the most helpful of the three, and did not try to pressure me into a purchase on the spot (unlike some of the larger companies which offer a discount if you sign on the spot and will call their manager in front of you to try to get a further discount that they know they can already provide). Installation team showed up on time and were very professional and respectful of the house. Very meticulous and the team did a great job in minimizing the footprint of the furnace unit and running new pipes and lines to conceal as much as possible. Overall extremely happy with Lancaster’s service and highly recommend them." — Tristan McLeod, Burlington, ON, Google > "My elderly parents’ a/c failed in their Burlington townhome during a heatwave early this month. Temperatures were close to 40 degrees. I called Lancaster and spoke with Sara, explained the situation, and she was able to have one of their technicians, Rob, come the same day and check the air conditioning. It was the capacitor, and Rob replaced it that afternoon. My parents were VERY happy to have their a/c back on and couldn’t say enough good things about Rob and the service he provided. Highly recommend Lancaster Heating and Cooling." — Kelly Hribljan, Burlington, ON, Google --- **Lancaster Heating and Cooling** — HVAC contractor serving Hamilton, Niagara and surrounding areas since 1955.
