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 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.

The Process
How a Heating Service Call Goes
On the truck
Professional tools, parts, and diagnostics — every call.
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.
Full system diagnosis
Your tech checks the burners, heat exchanger, igniter, gas pressure, blower, and thermostat, then shows you the actual fault before quoting.
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.
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.
Tested, permitted, warrantied
We verify safe operation, pull permits where required, register the manufacturer warranty, and back our labor in writing.
Pricing
How We Price Heating Work in North Louisiana
Flat-rate, quoted before we start — never hourly. An after-hours surcharge applies on nights, weekends, and holidays. Here's how we arrive at the number on a heating call.
Flat rate, quoted before we start
You get the full price for the job up front — not an hourly meter you watch climb. You approve it before a tool comes out of the truck.
The quote is the price
It doesn't move once work begins. If something unexpected turns up behind a wall or under a slab, we stop and talk it through with you before going further.
Members save 15% on every repair
The 1-Year Classic Membership is $189 a year and takes 15% off all HVAC and plumbing repairs, with reduced after-hours rates and priority scheduling on every call.

Every job is priced for your home and what it actually needs — tell us what's going on and we'll get you a firm number, free and with no obligation.

Furnace vs. Heat Pump for North Louisiana
In our mild winters both make sense — the right pick depends on your fuel, your existing system, and whether you want one unit to heat and cool.
| Feature | Gas Furnace | Heat Pump | Dual Fuel |
|---|---|---|---|
| How it heats | Burns natural gas or propane | Moves heat with electricity | Heat pump with gas backup |
| Best for | Homes with existing gas | All-electric homes, mild winters | Max efficiency in any weather |
| Also cools? | No — needs separate AC | Yes — heats and cools | Yes — heats and cools |
| Best efficiency | Up to 96% AFUE | Very high in mild climates | Highest year-round |
