About LACORTE HVAC & ELECTRIC
LACORTE HVAC & ELECTRIC has served Valparaiso and the surrounding Porter County community since becoming a registered contractor in Indiana. The business holds an active license for both heating and electrical work, reflecting the dual-trade expertise that defines their operation. With a perfect 5.0-star rating across four verified customer reviews, the company has built its reputation on transparent pricing and technical precision. Homeowners in Valparaiso, Portage, and Chesterton rely on Phil and his team for everything from routine seasonal maintenance to complete system replacements.
What distinguishes LACORTE from neighboring contractors is their breadth of in-house capabilities. Unlike operations that subcontract electrical or plumbing work, LACORTE maintains fully licensed electricians on staff, enabling them to handle complex panel upgrades, generator installations, and comprehensive whole-home retrofits without coordinating multiple vendors. Their product portfolio includes traditional forced-air furnaces, ductless mini-split systems for older homes lacking ductwork, boiler and radiant heating for historic properties, and advanced indoor air quality solutions including whole-home humidifiers.
Customer reviews consistently highlight Phil as the primary technician, with clients praising his honesty and approachability. Jessica Koartge specifically notes Phil is 'not out to rip you off' despite being available for both heating and cooling calls. Ann O describes how LACORTE managed her 1950s-era home, replacing a dangerous outdated electrical panel while simultaneously installing a tankless water heater and backup generator, work spanning three separate trades completed by one crew.
What Customers Say
All four reviews award a perfect 5-star rating, with customers emphasizing fair pricing and honest recommendations. Two reviewers specifically mention Phil by name as their trusted technician. Multiple reviewers highlight the company's willingness to handle multi-trade projects (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) for older homes, contrasting with contractors who decline complex jobs.
