Trouble Free Heating & Cooling

Susan C.

This company has been my go-to for heating and air conditioning installation and repair for years. I have always had rapid and outstanding service. I cannot recommend them enough!

My mother purchased a new HVAC system and also their ""gold plan"" for maintenance at $19.95 per month. The payment was taken directly from her checking account. When she sold the house and moved, I called to cancel the plan. They took another payment.
I called again and I was told I have to discontinue in writing, not a phone call. I wrote a letter that day.
They took another payment.
I drove to the office with my documentation and was told there should be no more payments coming out and they CANNOT refund my mothers money they took out.
Bottom line-do not trust their services. Should you need a plan to maintain a brand new HVAC system? And DO NOT let them automatically take money from your account. They keep taking it when they shouldn't and refuse to refund it.
I do not recommend this company.

TROUBLE FREE? Should just be named trouble. It was a nightmare working with them and I would not recommend them to anyone. They spend all their money on dumb ads and run a scam business.

Called for emergency service on Sunday. Clogged sewer line. Paid $378.00
for 1hou, 15 mins. Serviceman was pleasant enough. Gave me the impression that he wanted to get to other calls ASAP. He ran a ""snake""
once through the sewer line. Not much debris came out. I asked him if he was going to doi it more times and he said "" lets test it. Ran water from several sinks/ toilets. Sinks were still slow to drain. I told him it wasnt fixed yet. He said let's try again. Water then seems to drain as usual. He left. Monday evening, same sinks backed up with sewer line clog. Called office Early Tuesday morning. Office said per notes, I signed off ( I never did get the receipt emailed to me as promised) and sewer clogs weren't guarenteed anyway. They wanted another charge of $149.00!!! Minimum!!!

Stay away. Shoddy, overpriced service. Don't stand behind their work!!!

Have not dealt with them personally, but within the past few months I have heard several individuals that I know, that have had terrible experiences with this company. I will never go to them for services. BEWARE!

Let me start my review by explaining the ""issue"" they were called to fix. My wife read online that it was good preventive maintenance to once a month or so flush your drains with a mixture of baking soda and vinegar to keep them fresh, so she decided to try this one night after I had gone to bed, and the baking soda clogged the U joint in a downstairs restroom, she couldn't fix it herself, but didn't want to bother me with it, so arranged for Trouble Free to come and unclog it in the morning. Before I left for work, she informed me what she did, I told her I could mess with it when I got home, she said no it was her fault and she had already called. I say fine, I head to work figure it'll be something like $80 no biggy, next time she'll get my opinion and we can decide together. Around 10am she calls me sounding very distressed, the ""plumber"" they sent couldn't unclog the drain, and informed her because our house was so old the pipes were at too sharp of an angle to be snaked (remember this because he claims something different later), and that the only way to unclog this drain is to go to our utility room, pay them to move and re-plumb our water softener so he has access to the lower part of the pipe. I tell her to send him home because that is INSANE, it's just a simple clog. She asked him to leave the drain plug out, he charges her for his ""services"" and leaves.
On my way home I stop by Walmart, buy a $4 drain snake, go home and clear the drain in no joke 5 minutes. I am 100% serious, I have 0 plumbing skills and I cleared this pipe very easily. At this point I am kind of annoyed, the guy left a mess, he had loosened the drain stopper nut on the back of the sink and water leaked all over the floor, he didn't re-tighten it or clean up the mess he made after he left, so I called to complain about that. During the call I remain calm, and tell the person on the phone, that I would like to place a complaint about the quality service we received, I explain to her that he didn't snake the drain at all, suggested some ridiculous solution, left a mess, and I with no experience as a professional plumber, fixed it in 5 minutes, so I felt he didn't try too hard. She apologizes and says she will talk with the plumber and call me back. She calls me back and explains that he couldn't snake the drain because the snake he had was too big, I counter, what do you mean too big? When my wife called, she said it was a bathroom sink, you would think he would have multiple sizes of drain snakes on his truck, what with being a professional plumber and all. Then she informs me that his ridiculous solution of moving the water softener was so that NEXT time we had a clog it would be easier to fix, I tell her that we have never had an issue with this before and the ONLY reason we had an issue was because it was clogged with backing powder WHICH my wife told him about. She argues with me a bit about me complaining and I ask to see the bill which she keeps saying well your wife signed off on it (my wife knows 0 about plumbing) so she says she will send me the bill with his notes on it, then also says they will cut the bill in half to only $149. This is the first time I heard the price. They charged my wife almost $300 to do nothing at my house for an hour but leave a mess. I had to call twice to get the bill sent to me and low and behold all kinds of different things are written on it, he claims in his notes the clog is behind the wall. I determined the clog was in the drain U bend by simply measuring where the snake I bought got stuck, it got stuck EXACTLY at the U bend well before the wall. This was why he wanted to move the water softener, COMPLETELY unnecessary as again the clog was very clearly in the U joint BEFORE the wall. THEN I notice the billing part - Drain Cleaning - Quantity 2. TWO he charged my wife for TWO drains no wonder they were willing to refund her half since he OVERCHARGED her in the first place. What gets me about that is instead of telling me the truth they act like they are doing us a favor giving back money they wrongfully charged my wife. I have called and asked at least 5 times now to talk with the supervisor for the plumber that came to my house, I feel I have always been very calm in my calls, I really just want to know what went on because it comes down to two things to me:

1) Their plumber is INCREDIBILY incompetent, could not fix a VERY simple clogged drain and recommended an INSANE fix, again I fixed this clog in 5 MINUTES with a $4 drain snake from Walmart (one of the times I pointed this out the lady on the phone she says they don't use cheap tools from Walmart or Lowes it's all professional grade, to which I replied, well maybe you should since my $4 snake fixed the issue and his professional tool did nothing).
OR
2) This is a predatory business, the plumber saw a woman struggling with a simple problem and decided he could sell her some BS about the pipes having too sharp of a curve and that he

Trouble-fee is running a scam disguised as a business.
My kitchen drain needed snaked. This is apparently too difficult for this place! Tried once and failed Talked me into unnecessary ""cut out"" -still never snaked it..
Apparently didn't have one long enough!
Came back told me I needed all new pipes!
Called a new guy he snaked it it 25 minutes everything is now perfect! I want my money back!

Had a valve replaced in my shower was charged $365. Learned the part was actually only a $7.00 part. He went out in his truck and sat for 20 to 30 min. came back in put the valve in which took him 10 min. Later actually looked on you tube and saw a gentleman replace exact same valve in 1 minute. There was no need to charge that much.

Their HVAC System quote was about 3X more than the same Furnace & A/C system elsewhere.
- Seriously - $16,000 for a non modulating 100k btu variable speed Furnace and a 3t 16 SEER A/C... & this was AFTER the $4000 ""discount""
- 3lbs refridgerant + stop leak + 20 minutes = $520
- PM with contract was outrageous =
-- $200yr contract + $100yr filters + $100+yr UV bulb that are notoriously problematic... that's $400 yr in PM on top of $16,000 = $20k over 10 yrs - yea - no thanks - I got the same system and better upgrades for about - 1/3 of the price with a far superior company with a better reputation for customer service.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY
You DO NOT get what you pay for with these guys.
Either someone is raking in mad cash, or they have to overcharge to pay for their overhead! Be Smart get multiple bids, and you will see!!!

The owner is an ass-hat. They're only interested in taking your money, whether they can actually fix your problem or not. No offer to make it right or refund your money when they aren't able to remedy the situation. I called another local company who got it done for less than half what these clowns charged.
