Licence #28258 — active on the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation register, valid to 12/22/2026. We check licences against state records; we do not inspect workmanship.
Lister Plumbing INC is listed in Galveston, TX, in Galveston County, and holds Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation contractor licence #28258, current to 12/22/2026. Licensing for air conditioning and refrigeration work in Texas falls under Occupations Code Chapter 1302, which requires contractors to hold a licence before carrying out this work. Galveston sits in IECC climate Zone 2A — hot and humid, meaning long cooling seasons and high humidity, so moisture removal matters as much as raw cooling capacity. New split-system air conditioners installed anywhere in Texas must meet a minimum of 14.3 SEER2 under the federal South-region standard — worth knowing when you compare quotes, since a cheaper unit that falls below it cannot lawfully be installed here.
Based on what Lister Plumbing INC lists with AirProHQ: services offered are HVAC contractor. We have no record of them advertising 24/7 emergency service — call ahead to confirm hours for anything urgent. Their Texas contractor licence is verified and active as of our last check. For anything not covered here — such as whether they specifically serve commercial or multi-unit properties — that's worth confirming directly with Lister Plumbing INC before you book, or compare other Galveston contractors first.
