Overview

Every Heating Job, One Local Crew

When the temperature drops and the heat won't come on, you want the same honest, licensed crew you already trust for plumbing. Mark Johnson & Sons has kept North Louisiana homes warm since 1997 — gas and electric furnace repair, new system installation, heat pumps, boilers, ductwork, thermostats, and seasonal tune-ups, all under one roof.

No subcontractors. The tech who shows up is on our payroll and accountable to the job. Every quote is flat-rate and given before we touch a tool, so you know the price before we start — and the $89–$129 service call is waived when you have us do the repair.

What we service

  • Furnace repair — gas and electric, no-heat and short-cycling calls, flame sensors, hot-surface igniters, blower motors and capacitors, inducer motors, gas valves, and control boards
  • Furnace installation — right-sized 80% AFUE and 95%+ high-efficiency furnaces, load-calculated and code-compliant, from Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, York, American Standard, Bryant, and Amana
  • Heat pumps — repair, replacement, and dual-fuel setups that pair a heat pump with gas backup for North Louisiana's mild-but-unpredictable winters
  • Boilers — hydronic repair, circulator and pressure diagnostics, and full replacement
  • Ductwork — sealing, repair, and replacement to kill cold rooms and cut bills in older homes with aging ducts
  • Thermostats and radiant heat — smart and programmable thermostat installs, plus in-floor radiant systems

Repair vs. replace

If the furnace is under 12 years old and the repair is less than a third of replacement cost, we fix it. Past 15 years, on repeat breakdowns, or with a cracked heat exchanger, replacement is usually the smarter money. You get the honest math and a flat-rate quote on both — no pressure, no scare tactics.

Emergency heat and commercial

A sudden hard freeze is exactly when furnaces quit, so we answer live 24/7 and dispatch fast on no-heat emergencies. We also handle light-commercial rooftop and packaged units on scheduled and emergency contracts. Ask about our Classic Membership — a Fall heating tune-up and Spring AC tune-up for $189/year, plus 15% off repairs and front-of-line scheduling.

Warning signs

Signs Your Heating Needs Service

Heating problems almost always warn you first. Catch these early and you avoid a no-heat morning in the middle of a North Louisiana cold snap.

  • Furnace runs but the house never reaches the thermostat setting

  • Short cycling — the system kicks on and off every few minutes

  • Cold spots in some rooms while others stay warm

  • Burning, musty, or gas smell when the heat runs

  • Yellow or flickering burner flame instead of steady blue

  • Banging, rattling, or squealing from the furnace or blower

  • A spike in the gas or electric bill without a weather change

  • The blower runs constantly but the air isn't warm

  • System is 15+ years old and needs repairs every season

The Process

How a Heating Service Call Goes

Mark Johnson & Sons technician servicing a gas furnace in a North Louisiana home

On the truck

Professional tools, parts, and diagnostics — every call.

  1. Call answered live, 24/7

    No heat in a cold snap is an emergency to us. A real person answers, triages the symptom, and dispatches — day or night.

  2. Full system diagnosis

    Your tech checks the burners, heat exchanger, igniter, gas pressure, blower, and thermostat, then shows you the actual fault before quoting.

  3. Flat-rate quote, safety first

    You get the price up front. If we find a cracked heat exchanger or a carbon-monoxide risk, we tell you straight — and never upsell a repair you don't need.

  4. Repair or install, done clean

    Common parts ride on the truck for same-day repairs. New system installs are sized with a load calculation, not a guess.

  5. Tested, permitted, warrantied

    We verify safe operation, pull permits where required, register the manufacturer warranty, and back our labor in writing.
