Lane, Colton

Lane Service runs as a family HVAC outfit based in Waco Texas. Jimmy Lane entered the air conditioning and heating trade right after high school in December 1964 at the local General Electric distributor. He started his own company in 1975 and has kept it operating for the past 49 years. His two sons Steve and Jeff joined after they finished school and now grandsons Colton and Chad work in the business as well. This keeps the whole operation family owned and run from the first day through to the present with the same focus on local homes.

The crew handles full repairs and replacements on residential heating and cooling equipment across Waco. They respond to calls about units that stop cooling during peak summer heat or need new parts installed to restore airflow and temperature control. Family members and other techs arrive to check compressors fans and thermostats then complete the fixes on site so homeowners avoid multiple visits. Work often includes routine maintenance ahead of the hot months plus emergency stops when systems fail without warning in older houses around town.

Homeowners keep coming back because the jobs get finished on time without added costs or delays and the systems hold up once repaired. Feedback highlights clear updates during visits solid results on the equipment itself and prices that match the scope of the work. Speed matters when temperatures climb fast and the crew earns notice for showing up ready to solve the problem the same day. DIRT Score 3.48 from 19 reviews on Finds.

“What an amazing hidden gem! I have ran in here lately to grab a couple of gifts on a couple of different occasions. Always greeted with the most polite employees. Their gifts are upscale and perfect for any occasion. Their gift wrap service is top-notch also. If you were looking for a wedding shower gift, baby shower, gift, graduation gift or hostess gift and much more this really is the perfect spot. Price appropriately in my opinion for the brands and quality of products.”

“Very helpful staff, they went out of there way to help us find the right gift for a wedding.”

“I stopped by with my daughter-in-law last weekend and we were very pleasantly surprised. What a beautiful store, full of gorgeous glassware, china, gifts and jewelry. It’s an Aladdin’s cave! And the owners there were extremely friendly and welcoming. What a gem!”

“If you are looking for something unique and pretty for yourself or a friend then Lanes is tour place! Just walking in makes you feel like you are in the right store! Everyone greets you with the most warm welcome and instantly helps you if you need it! Love the fact that I don’t have to go get some things that normally would have to get in Dallas or Austin! Lanes has it all from unique gifts, baby items, home decor, lighting, and the best snacks! Love going to Lanes and so glad to see it thriving and doing well! I highly recommend this place! Like I said just walking in and being greeted can put a smile on your face!”

“I stopped by this beautiful gift store on Austin Avenue for the first time with my mother last week. I was not disappointed. It was packed with all sorts of what bots. It would take a while to go through the rooms. The service was pleasant but not overbearing. Will be back!”
