Response from Attic Air
[Member Name Removed], Well this came as a surprise! As you can see from our rating's, this is NOT usual. Without giving you an estimate, or doing any work; we don't understand the F rating. If you're upset with us declining the work; we have that right to do so as a company. We do not have to provide a customer an estimate, if it's not something we want to do; it's our choice. Just like you have a choice whether to use our company, or another company, for your work. Your crawl space was too wet, muddy, and debris everywhere; we wouldn't feel comfortable sending out worker's there to do the job. We're sorry you had this response, and hope you have a better understanding of our decision. Thank you

Description of Work: I contracted with Attic Air for some remedial improvements to my attic insulation, correct venting of a shower exhaust fan , and fixing some improperly installed supplemental insulation. They were outstanding from first contact when the owner Robert returned my call thru execution by Alex and the crew. The whole experience was a pleasure and the crew was outstanding-especially considering it was a 97 degree day, and much warmer in the attic. I love these guys.

Robert was a pleasure to do business with from our initial phone conversations up to the day of installation. He was very accommodating with regard to my unpredictable schedule and came over on a Sunday morning. He looked at my garage and gave me the same price as he quoted me on the phone and he didn't try to sell me anything I didn't need. His work was professional, neat and efficient. He also checked his work at the very end and did a nice job cleaning up. I definitely recommend his services.

Called, appt. made, arrived on site promptly and gave estimate with plan to complete work immediately if estimate was acceptable. Three workers worked very efficiently to get work completed. All wore shoe covers and care was taken to keep work site clean. Brought all tools and supplies on truck at time of initial appointment, so no need to leave job site to get any supplies. Work completed without incident.
Description of Work: Checked proper function of attic fan, installed 2 new bathroom exhaust fans and vented 1 old and 2 new fans properly through roof.

A year ago, Attic Air had installed an attic fan, soffits, etc. The job was well done, and we have significantly decreased our a/c use. Robert was prompt, pleasant and professional in completing this small, but very important job for us. I highly recommend Attic Air, and Robert.

Work was done at time promised and in one afternoon. High quality materials were used for the soffit vent grills. Holes were cut and blocking insulation was removed from above the vent grills. This was difficult due to nails through the roof. I agree that more insulation is blocking the grills and will need to be removed in the future by working in the attic. Mr. Carroll replaced the wrong fan motor. I called and he came back within 15 minutes of my call and replaced the correct broken attic fan motor for no charge. No delay, no hesitation at all.
Description of Work: Attic Ventilation improvement project. Added 10 new soffit vent grills and replaced all existing vents with new vent covers. Replaced broken attic ventilation fan in one attic.

Robert offered a free visit to see what was wrong with the attic fan. He identified the problem and offered to fix it quickly (that day). He and his workers were polite, clean, and cleaned up after themselves after being in my attic. Initially it took almost two weeks for him to be able to come out, but I'm glad I scheduled him and waited for him.
Description of Work: They identified that my former attic fan was indeed broken. They replaced it quickly and had it up and running within less than a half hour's time.

We quickly received a quote over the phone for the work. We accepted Attic Air's proposal and they immediately scheduled the work for 10 days later. The crew arrived right on time and quickly and professionally completed the job. I was very impressed with their efforts to keep our home clean by laying down tarps and using cloth booties on their feet.
Description of Work: Removed an old, non-functioning whole house fan. Replaced with a new fan and installed a wall switch to control the fan.

We have not decided if we will use Attic Air because they are recommending a plan that differs from what the home inspector gave us and the other two companies we called on. This is not to say that their ideas or plan is not good, just different because it includes adding more vents in our roof and we already have quite a few.

Robert assisted me with a vendor and location to purchase two Gable Vents. I was able to match color and purchased the vents. Robert arrived on time in wet weather with two helpers to install. They were professional and efficient and had the job completed in one hour and one half. My siding company had previously quoted this job, but Attic Air saved me money. I am very satisfied with the Attic Air service, quality of workmanship and price.

Mr. Carroll came when he promised he would. He and his employees put on those "booties" that surgical staff wear so they wouldn't track mud into the house. He showed me that the fan was useless. It blew air from an upstairs bedroom into an enclosed attic space where it just blew back into the bedroom rattling the fan cover which accounted for all of the racket it made. He took it out for me immediately. Also, he found the previous fan laying in the back of the attic and took that with him, too. He was prompt, friendly and professional. He gave me some tips on attic ventialtion. I recommend him highly.
Description of Work: The house I bought had a "whole" house fan in the attic. I didn't know what it was for and it made a lot of noise when I switched it on. I wondered if it was working properly and if I needed it. I called Attic Air and they promised to come out the next day to look at it.

They were great. They were on time for both the estimate and the day of work. They completed everything as promised and cleaned up everything. Very polite and professional.
Description of Work: I had attic air install exhaust fans in two bathrooms. They also vented all of the soffit vents in the front of the house. This was somewhat of a custom job due to the original builder using bits & pieces on the soffits. Two other companies turned down the job.

I HAD INITIALLY ASKED THEM TO COME OUT TO GIVE AN ESTIMATE. WHEN THEY CAME OUT, THERE WERE THREE PEOPLE AND I GOT THE IMPRESSION THAT THEY EXPECTED TO INSTALL THE ATTIC FAN THEN. THEY GAVE ME AN ESTIMATE OF $445, $120 OVER THE FLYER PRICE, AND EXPLAINED THAT THE DIFFERENCE WAS DUE TO THE LARGER FAN THAT WAS REQUIRED. THEY ALSO SAID THEY WOULD WIRE USING ARMORED CABLE WHICH THEY SAID WAS WITHIN CODE. I THEN PRICED THE FANS, AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A $50 DIFFERENCE IN THE RETAIL PRICES. I CALLED THE VILLAGE INSPECTOR TO VERIFY THAT THE ARMORED CABLE WAS IN CODE; IT WASN'T. WHEN I CALLED THEM TO DISCUSS THESE TWO POINTS, THE OWNER SAID HE WOULD INSTALL THE UNIT TO CODE FOR AN ADDITIONAL $45, AND QUOTED A CONDUIT INSTALLATION OF AN ADDITIONAL $150. I ASKED ABOUT THE INSTALLATION PRICE DIFFERENCE AND HE SAID IT WAS DUE TO THE PITCH OF THE ROOF (THEY HAD INITIALLY SAID THERE WASN'T ANY INSTALLATION SURCHARGE FOR THIS.) HE WAS VERY RUDE AND DEFENSIVE WHEN FACED WITH THE FACTS AND HUN

Response from Attic Air
THE CUSTOMER RECEIVED A DIRECT MAIL COUPON IN THE MAIL. THE COUPON DOESN'T STATE INSTALLATION TO VILLAGE CODE. ALL VILLAGE CODES ARE DIFFERENT. THIS COUPON GOES TO MULTIPLE VILLAGES. WE HAVE 3 PEOPLE IN OUR TRUCK AT ALL TIMES. WE MIX JOBS WITH ESTIMATES. THE HOMEOWNER HAD A LARGE ATTIC. ALSO, THE ROOF WAS AS STEEP AS A STEEPLE. THE HOME NEEDED A LARGER FAN. HE ALSO WANTED IT RAN WITH CONDUIT. WE NEVER TOLD HIM ARMORED CABLE WAS WITHIN HIS VILLAGE CODE. THE HOMEOWNER WANTED THESE EXTRAS AT THE COUPON PRICE. THE HOMEOWNER WAS VERY UPSET HE COULDN'T GET THESE EXTRAS FOR FREE.

I CAN'T RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY ENOUGH! I HAD THREE OTHER ROOFERS FROM ANGIES LIST GIVE ESTIMATE TO INSTALL SOFFITS IN MY ROOF. ONE SAID IT WOULD COST THOUSANDS. ANOTHER SAID IT WAS AN INCREDIBLY TOUGH JOB AND DIDN'T EVEN GUESS AN AMOUNT. CARROLL SWUNG BY AND, WITHIN MINUTES, SAID HE WOULD DO THE WHOLE JOB FOR $300. I WAS DUMBFOUNDED, BUT HE SHOWED ME WHY. THE OTHER ROOFERS TRULY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT. HE WAS POLITE, PROMPT, SPEEDY, AND A SPECIALIST IN VENTILATION. HE'S A GO-TO GUY. I'VE USED HIM TWICE, AND APPRECIATED WORKING WITH HIM. HE IS THE KIND OF GUY WHO LOOKS AT HIS WORK WITH THE SAME COST-EFFECTIVE MANNER THAT A HOMEOWNER DOES, MEANING HE WILL SUGGEST NOT TO DO SOMETHING IF HE THINKS YOU DON'T NEED IT. BUT HE WILL LEAVE IT UP TO YOU, OBVIOUSLY. HE WAS THE BEST CONTRACTOR THAT I'VE WORKED WITH YET. I WISH I COULD FIND CLONES OF HIM IN OTHER AREAS OF HOME REPAIR.
Description of Work: INSTALLED SOFFIT VENTS FOR ENTIRE ROOF, INSTALLED ATTIC FAN, TUBING, AND EXHAUST FAN FOR 2ND FLOOR DRYER, THROUGH CEILING AND ROOF, 2 ROOF VENTS FOR LOWER STORY ROOF, AND SOFFIT VENTS. VENTED A BATHROOM FAN.
