A Family Business Built on Trust: Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning Serves Houston for Over 30 Years

HOUSTON – For more than three decades, Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning has been a trusted name in Houston homes — offering dependable plumbing, heating and air conditioning services with a personal touch that only a family business can provide.

Founded in 1991 by Daniel Lawlis, the company was named after his son, Luke — a reflection of the values the business was built on: consistency, responsibility and long-term service to the Houston community. Today, Luke works alongside his father as a plumbing expert, preparing to one day carry the family legacy forward.

“It was always about building something that would last,” Lawlis says. “Naming the company after my son meant everything we did had to stand for integrity and quality.”

Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning provides residential plumbing, heating and air conditioning services across the Houston area, helping homeowners with routine maintenance, repairs and full system replacements.

Meet Tupelo — the Four-Legged Mascot

The Luke’s family recently added a very special team member: Tupelo, a 2-year-old English Labrador adopted from Bigfork, Montana. Tupelo has quickly become the company’s official mascot — and a fan favorite.

If you schedule service with Luke’s, there’s a good chance Tupelo might tag along, bringing a little extra charm and comfort to your visit. For the Lawlis family, Tupelo represents what the business is all about: warmth, connection and treating customers like family.

Winter Storm Awareness: What Homeowners Should Watch For

Following Houston’s recent winter storm, Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning is encouraging homeowners to stay alert for potential damage that may not be immediately visible.

Some common post-freeze issues include:

  • Burst or leaking pipes
  • Slow or clogged drains
  • Low water pressure
  • Furnace or heating system malfunctions
  • Electrical failures or unusual odors coming from heating units

Because Houstonians don’t use their heaters daily, problems can go unnoticed until temperatures drop again. Having an expert inspect your system can help prevent costly breakdowns and keep your home safe and comfortable.

“One heating issue homeowners should never ignore is strange smells or electrical issues when the furnace turns on,” Lawlis advises. “That’s always a sign to call a professional.”

Special Offers for Houston Life Viewers

Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning is currently offering several valuable service specials:

  • Drain Cleaning for $93 — and if they can’t unclog your drain, the service is FREE
  • Furnace Tune-Ups for $49
  • $200 off new hot water heater replacements
  • Ask about the Tupelo VIP Club for ongoing maintenance and priority service

These offers are designed to help homeowners stay ahead of plumbing and heating problems before small issues turn into major repairs.

A Legacy You Can Count On

What sets Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning apart is its commitment to family, service and the future. With Luke now working alongside his father, the company represents a true passing of the baton — from one generation to the next.

“It means everything to see my son growing into this business,” Lawlis says. “This company was built for Houston families, by our family.”

Whether it’s routine maintenance, storm-related repairs, or simply peace of mind, Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning continues to deliver reliable service with heart.
