Our Services
With a median construction year of 1991 and the largest share of homes built during the 1970s and 1980s, Longmont’s established neighborhoods carry a significant proportion of aging forced-air systems that are now approaching or past standard replacement age, particularly in the older central and eastern sections of the city. The City of Longmont issues a dedicated Mechanical license for HVAC contractors, covering warm-air heating, venting, evaporative and refrigeration cooling, and related systems, and requires contractors to carry liability insurance with a $300,000 combined single limit. Every Precision technician holds a current City of Longmont Mechanical license and manages all applicable permit documentation through the city’s Building Inspection Division before work begins.

Why Choose Precision
Longmont has developed a strong local identity as a community that values authenticity and practical quality over marketing gloss, and that sensibility extends to how residents evaluate service contractors. Precision Plumbing Heating Cooling & Electric entered this market the same decade that most of Longmont’s current housing stock was built, and it has operated here continuously since without relying on growth spurts or market cycles to sustain the business. The company’s credentials are verifiable, its recognition comes from the community it serves, and its pricing model removes the uncertainty that makes HVAC service calls more stressful than they need to be.

Where We Serve
Longmont’s neighborhoods range from the walkable historic streets of Old Town, where early-1900s homes carry equipment that has been through multiple replacement cycles, to the architecturally distinctive Prospect New Town with its mixed-use design, and onward to the family-oriented subdivisions of Clover Basin, Somerset Meadows, and Quail Crossing on the city’s newer edges. The city’s position along St. Vrain Creek and its history with the 2013 flood mean that some properties in lower-lying areas carry mechanical systems that have been replaced or substantially repaired since original installation, creating diagnostic conditions that differ from the surrounding housing vintage.
Precision Plumbing Heating Cooling & Electric serves the whole city, including the following neighborhoods:
With most of Longmont’s housing built between the 1970s and the 1990s, a large share of the city’s HVAC systems are now well into or approaching the replacement window, and the city’s dedicated Mechanical license requirement means not every contractor calling on those homeowners holds the right credentials. Precision Plumbing Heating Cooling & Electric has held that license and delivered that service since 1982.

FAQ

Yes. Coverage extends across the full city, from the historic Old Town corridor and the established neighborhoods of the 1970s and 1980s to the newer communities on the city’s eastern and southern edges including Clover Basin, Somerset Meadows, and Quail Crossing. The team services all residential property types throughout Longmont.
The City of Longmont issues a dedicated Mechanical license for HVAC contractors that covers the installation, alteration, and repair of warm-air heating, venting, evaporative and refrigeration cooling, exhaust systems, hot water systems, and refrigeration systems. Mechanical license holders must carry liability insurance with a $300,000 combined single limit, and Precision holds both the license and the required coverage.
Longmont sits at approximately 4,979 feet above sea level along the St. Vrain Creek corridor, where late-season chinook wind events and rapid overnight temperature drops during shoulder seasons place particular stress on heating systems in buildings with aging insulation. The city’s relatively lower elevation compared to Boulder and the foothills communities also means warmer summer temperatures that push central cooling systems harder during peak July and August demand periods.
Old Town Longmont contains homes from the early 1900s through the mid-20th century where original or extensively aged heating systems, undersized return air capacity, and duct configurations designed for lower-efficiency equipment are frequent findings. Neighborhoods built during the 1970s and 1980s present more standardized conditions, but equipment in that age range is now approaching 40 to 50 years of service with heat exchanger fatigue, capacitor wear, and refrigerant system degradation as the dominant diagnostic categories.
Every appointment begins with a complete system evaluation and a written, fixed-price quote for the proposed scope of work before any work begins, and that price does not change based on the time required. This model applies equally to straightforward tune-ups in newer Somerset Meadows homes and to the more involved diagnostic work that older Old Town and Idaho Creek properties regularly require.
Yes. Longmont is an incorporated home rule municipality in Boulder County with its own Building Inspection Division and contractor licensing program at 385 Kimbark St., independent of Boulder County’s unincorporated area building department, and Precision handles all applicable permit filings on behalf of homeowners as part of every qualifying service engagement.
