I call Cabrera Air after I had a very bad experience with on other company and I am very glad I did because I have to say that there is still some good and honest people in this world. Cabrera Air has my trust and completed satisfaction for the good work and reasonable fees. I personally met the owner and all I can say is that he is a truly Christian men; very honest with people and without greedyness. God bless him and his bussiness!

Satisfied with the services offered to me by Cabrera Air. I needed an estimate for new ductwork in my attic. The duct was as old as me and unlike me it needed to get replaced. Will use Sam and Cabrera Air in the future.

Very friendly owner. Knowledgeable regarding repairs and new installation for the air conditioner in my home. I believe they work only in residential, but that's exactly what I needed.

BEWARE !!! SCAM !!
On 9/25/2018 I entered into contract for a new A/C unit with Cabrera Air in conjunction with Cilas Construction with a deadline of less than 120 days. I wired a deposit of $3000 on 09/26/2018 to begin the installation and an extra $1,200 on 12/21/2018.
Since September, I have tried contacting the supposed owner Joseph P. Maria sr., and various other members of the company by email and by phone in order to understand where my A/C unit is and when the installation would begin. I have only received an answer from Joseph P. Maria Sr asking that I contact his son who also has failed to respond and provide me with details.
The last contact I've had with Samuel Cabrera the real owner was around 3 weeks ago when I had begged for my money back and he had responded by stating "will do". !!!!! As today NOTHING !!!
Since then I have been gathering information about Cabrera Air and the findings have been troubling. The man who claims to be the owner, Joseph P. Maria Sr., is not listed anywhere on Sunbiz.org. I was not provided with a GC license. The company address is a residential single-family home which.
This fraudulent transaction has costed me over $4,200 and now I am struggling to hire another company to properly fix the mess that Cabrera Air has caused.
We are not interested in their services as they are not BBB accredited, and lack the knowledge and experience required to take on such a job.
