"Had all the things to fix our wall inlet plates that were cut off by our remodelers. He also installed extensions so that the inlets could reach the vacuum pipe behind the new wainscoting. Alex is a friendly, knowledgeable professional who goes above and beyond. Would definitely hire him again for future central vac needs!"
"Jeremy saved me a lot of money by managing to install a second strap in the existing water heater. A contractor had installed the heater with only one strap when he had access to the back wall. Now, when there will be an inspection for the house sale, I saw that there didn't appear to be any room in the tiny closet containing the heater to get back to the wall to install the second strap. A plumbing outfit said the heater would have to be drained of water and removed. Jeremy, who is quite strong, managed to move the 75 gallon heater enough so that he could access the rear using a twenty inch extension on the drill bit. He did everything well and was a pleasure to deal with.,"
"Marco greatly helped us out during a difficult and emotional time for our family. He performed a wide variety of work for us on a home we were placing on the market for sale. Marco and his crew were simply wonderful! They were professional, patient, had deep passion for their craft and listened intently to our needs and concerns. Some of the work they performed for us included: painting, door installation, stucco remediation, floor repair, water sealing, constructing a water heater enclosure, to name just some of what they accomplished for us. Marco's prices were fair and the quality of his work was excellent. We would hire him again in a heartbeat. Thank you so very much, Marco."

Install Central Vacuum questions, answered by experts
Technically, yes, you could install a central vacuum system on your own, but it is a very difficult DIY. There is a significant amount of planning, cutting into walls, and electrical wiring work that goes into it, which should only be performed by a professional. Because of the difficulty and expense associated with a central vacuum system, it’s worth it to hire a professional company familiar with the installation's complexities.
For the average-size house, a central vacuum installation usually takes one day of work by a team of professionals. Large houses may take two or more days. But if you are planning on a DIY project, it’s likely to take much longer. We suggest getting a few estimates for a project this big and fully understanding all the requirements before you make a decision about installation. Certain parts of your house may not be usable during the installation, and you may want to make other plans.
Whether talking about a whole-house central vacuum or a portable vacuum cleaner, the expected cost of major repair work should always be balanced against its replacement cost. However, excluding high-cost motor replacements or major electrical trouble, repairs on a central vacuum system are typically far less than the cost of purchasing and installing a new one.
The disadvantages associated with central vacuums start with cost. They are expensive to install, especially in existing homes, as retrofitting requires opening walls. The system's bulky hoses can also be inconvenient to maneuver and store compared to portable vacuums. Additionally, repairs may need professional service, adding to maintenance costs. Lastly, while powerful, they may be overkill for smaller homes or apartments, making the investment less practical for some households.
No. Only the hose or the attachments are portable in a central vacuum system. A portable vacuum is a standalone model like a stick, canister, or upright. A central vacuum system is defined by a central power unit, which is installed in one place like an AC unit, and the connected network of piping to funnel the suction.
