Alpine Air

This place is a scam company and will waste your time and money! I wish I would have looked at Unilocal before calling them-​I ordered the regular cleaning through the Val pack coupon and just like everyone else here. They showed up told me I had mold and that I must get mold cleaned for 500.00. They also told me I needed to get the plastic wrap on my entire 3k square foot crawl space which was over 4K of work. I told them no way and that this was a scam. of course, after seeing the mold you get scared and we have a baby so I agreed to let them clean out the mold-​even though it was minor. The guys come off as super creepy sales people and are in every inch of your home — had to keep an eye on them as I found one guy in my closet which has no vents! Very untrustworthy would not recommend.

BEWARE! This business should be shut down! I will give you the short version… Called in for the coupon special $ 59.95 and scheduled the appointment. Jim Rogers and his son (not trained) showed up and checked everything out, after the «evaluation» he showed me pictures of «mold» and explained how it needs to be cleaned immediately. I questioned the pictures because it didn’t look like my unit but I wasn’t exactly sure and didn’t suspect one would go so far as show fake pictures. He quoted me over $ 4,000 worth of work which included a full cleaning as well as a IV light and crawl space vapor barrier and «mold» bombing. We denied the crawlspace «fixes» because I just had it checked by Dry Pro and all was perfectly fine down there, so I started to distrust these guys. They negotiated the prices down to about 60% of first quite and I said ok and watched them spray the «hospital» strength sanitizer into the vents WHAT A JOKE… so here I am writing this review and warning you NOT TO DO BUSINESS WITH THEM!

We had these folks come through and do the cleaning with a 69.95 coupon. After they started the pictures came out. He indicated we had a leaking coil. Water was collecting in the drip pan. He told my wife we needed a new coil and we had mold. He also told my wife that we should get UV system to kill the mold spores.
My wife called and I talked to this gentleman on the phone. He explained the above to me and, well I called him out on his statements and as we talked he lowered his price for mold removal from 1400 to 650 to 350. I have extensive experience with HVAC called him on his mechanical abilities.
With all said and done our 69.95 became 150.00. These guys are not reputable in anyway.

Whole heartedly… its more like 2.75(¾)…got the mailer, same nice lady… guy came @8:30 for cleaning of ducts & dryer vent… I will give ¾ stars to any contractor who at least shows up… so, he did his «assessment» & gave us the quote, bad news & what I believe was «fake pictures» of the extra work that he said must be done… blah, blah…$ 1200…for everything… slow down junior… he claimed…
1-​we had mold
2-​hvac needed the coils cleaned
3-​we needed to have «mold-​GO Away» sprayed into our ducts…“all the hospitals do it“
But he would give us a 20% discount
…about this time, I let him know I was also a local RE Agent… so I shared w him…
1-​unless he was a mold specialist-​he could not say I had mold, black mold he said…“uh huh”…No
2-​that i have an hvac person who had came out not 60 days ago… certainly if you are saying he didn’t do his job, I need to call him…
3-​unless your a remediation specialist… he could not perform putting this magic potion in my air ducts…
Lastly I said… you can screw me over for $ 500(b/c he was doing a few other things, but not a penny more)…
Lastly it may not seem like the «nice girl» thing to do… but I told him… if I google this stuff your doing & I find out it was all not needed… someone will need to carry you out of my home, WHAT… I said it with a smile…
Bottom line, its less dusty, he opened closed air bi-​pass flaps to the ducts, cleaned everything, dryer vent (which was almost full), fixed a couple things & gave me «the hospital spray» for free… whole system runs better & more evenly upstairs & down… took him a bit over 2 hours…
For all of that I paid, less than ½ of the bogus quote & he got to walk upright out of my house when he was done :)

Due to dust and allergies, I purchased a $ 40 deal for duct cleaning from Clean Air through LivingSocial and made the appointment for the next day. Was told that they could not do the $ 40 deal, but offered Basic for $ 423, w/​o u.v. $ 523 and w/u.v. light $ 823 (Clean Air was on my voucher that I purchased, but Alpine Air was on the quote form that Josh Bertocci had left with me). After checking on Alpine Air I came up with several bad reviews. I told him that I had only wanted the $ 40 deal and was going to get a second opinion from my builder and heat and air company. My builder said that my heat/​air unit was just like everyone’s in my development and county, that someone was trying to sell me something that I did not need. I have a maintenance agreement with my heat and air; they had never mentioned any need either and are schedule to come next month. LivingSocial did reimburse my $ 40. BEWARD…

F on better business bureau. Had coupon redeemed for $ 39.95, which is a scam… guy tried to say we needed $ 550 in work. «Cleaned ducts» left a huge mess in our house and our AC runs through the house like crap now. My infants room is now even more humid and we have to vacuum the mess they left behind. If you hired monkeys they would do a better job. I work in CS and we always get numb nuts complaining about stupid crap, so I’m complaining that these idiots don’t do their job. Screw you. NEGATIVE 1.
