Velez, Christopher Nelson
Never hire this company! I was referred to this company by a painter. I have a home in Cape Coral that I rent out. A guy who claimed he worked for this company (Robert James Aponte) gave me an estimate for a 3 ton 14 seer. He ran my credit via Family First Cooling and Air.
Found out James did not pull permit, was not licenses. Owner Christopher Velez took 200.00 from employee to run my credit card for 3596.00. The unit is to big, riddled with code violations, and has to be removed. Found out the owner and employee has a very colorful criminal past...be very careful who you hire and stay away from these guys!
