"Was quoted a price by "Cal" of “$260 and we'll go from there depending on circumstances.” The two installers show up 30 minutes early and were very polite. Worked for a few minutes trying to get old unit out and then the received a phone call. Installer went outside and then came in and informed me price would be $500 per hour since there were two of them. Told him that was NOT what I was told. He went and made another phone call and came back with a price of $250 per hour (said there was a misunderstanding and it was $250 per hour because there were two of them on the job). Since they were already there and I wanted the job done, I told them to go ahead. The plug receptacle also needed to be changed out, because the old plug type was a 6-30P and the new AC unit is a 6-15P. That was an additional charge of $80 for them to provide the plug and change it. When the plug issue was being addressed, I specifically asked if there would be a problem with the circuit breaker designated for the AC since it was a double-pull 30 amp. The worker asked my question to whoever was on the other end of the phone and then told me there was no problem with continuing to use the 30 amp circuit breaker because it was more than heavy enough to handle the new 15 amp AC unit. I have now found out that answer is emphatically wrong. Reading the installation directions it states: “Before you install or relocate this unit, be sure that the amperage rating of the circuit breaker or time delay fuse does not exceed the amp rating listed in Table 1.” Table 1 shows the circuit rating for that AC unit should be 15 amps. The job took two hours ($500) and only after they had it all installed (including the foam seal and insulation, pouring water into the drip plan to see if it would come out, etc.), then they plugged it in -- and it didn't work. While it was not the fault of Mert’s that the unit did not work, they might have decided to plug it in and try it before they installed it. While the $580 I paid would have been a fair price had the unit worked and the advice I was given correct, what I ended up with was an installed AC unit that doesn't work, a plug receptacle that does and totally wrong information concerning the circuit breaker, which I also confirmed with my local fire department. They had also offered to reinstall the trim work around the AC, but for $250 an hour, I can certainly do that myself. I also decided the other work I spoke with them about should be tabled while I move on to someone else to install the replacement unit and who has a better underwriting of wiring and electricity."

Whether you need a simple cleaning or a new heating and cooling system to provide comfort in your home, Total Comfort NWI is your local professional. I often hear people say it’s not personal, it’s business. Well, business is personal. I started Total Comfort NWI on March 31, 2010, in the worst economy of many of our lifetimes. I knew there would always be a market for better furnace and air conditioning service. Thankfully I was right: we have grown slowly in spite of the recession. Today we are blessed to have the best customers we could ask for. I promise to our customers: No service call fee with any paid repair. We will provide a full diagnosis and provide you with repair options. Our goal is to provide you with choices so YOU can decide what is best for your home and comfort. I have worked for other local companies in the past and it feels great to have the personal satisfaction generated by the way we do things. To know we actually helped people and didn’t just do what was profitable. I believe business can be so much more. I love taking my little girl to your house to trick-or-treat, and being invited to your child’s graduation open house. It is personal because it is MY business. Which would you prefer? I hope God blesses you as he has embraced me! Peter Katschke – Owner

"All went well they replaced two systems for me one at my house and the other at my mom's arrived on time and technicians were very professional and polite got the job done in a timely manner and provided help with how to use the new thermostat overall very satisfied I even had problems with my thermostat just this past month and they came out and took care of it for me without hesitation ??"

Your family owned fireplace & chimney service. We are small enough to care and big enough to give you a good quality service, offering free estimates and you can also call us for advise on any fireplace & chimney questions.

"We called them out for a chimney sweep and inspection as well as a dryer vent cleaning. Upon inspecting the fireplace and chimney, we were told that the chimney was clean and did not need serviced. We were advised that the chimney needed a new cap, but the fireplace was too old to get parts for and they would not use aftermarket parts. The fireplace was installed in 1996. They provided us with a quote to replace the fireplace for $18,500 all due to a missing cap! Upon having another contractor inspect the fireplace, we were advised that the fireplace was fine and only needed some minor repairs. We also did some research online and found that the parts that they told us were no longer available, can still be purchased! They charged us $400 to NOT sweep the chimney and give us an outrageous quote, which was not needed! Now, on to the dryer vent... They inspected the dryer vent and advised it could not be cleaned as it was a flexible vent hose and not a solid pipe. They gave us an estimate for another $1200 to put in a solid vent pipe and still charged us $150! They did nothing except give us a quote! Totally unacceptable! We spoke with the owner about these ridiculous charges and he was totally unwilling to work with us on what we were charged. This is a horrible company to deal with and has some very shady businesss practices. Beware! They WILL try to scam you for as much as possible!"

FAQs for dryer vent cleaning projects in Cedar Lake, IN

The average cost to clean a dryer vent is around $140, but you could pay between $75 and $325, depending on the size of your dryer vent, accessibility, and how much debris is caught inside the vent. A first-floor or basement vent will usually be the most affordable to professionally clean, while a second-floor or roof vent will be more expensive due to additional equipment required for access. Your price could increase higher than these estimates if you also want an official dryer vent inspection or if your professional discovers that you need vent repairs.

Yes, dryer vent cleaning is absolutely worth the money. The service is relatively inexpensive and quick, and the value and peace of mind you get for the investment make it worthwhile. A clogged dryer vent is a significant fire risk, so the average $140 you might pay to have your dryer vent cleaned once a year could save you thousands of dollars in home repairs if the clog causes a fire. Additionally, some homeowner’s insurance companies will charge you a lower premium if you provide receipts of annual dryer vent cleanings by a professional.

Some signs of a clogged dryer vent include the following:

  • Your clothes take longer than usual to dry.

  • The exterior of your dryer gets very hot during operation.

  • You see lint around the area where the vent leaves your exterior wall.

  • You notice unusual or burning odors during dryer operation.

If you notice any of these signs, discontinue use and call a dryer vent cleaning service immediately. Neglecting a clogged dryer vent drastically increases the risk of a fire starting in your home.

It’s possible to clean out your dryer vent yourself, and it’s recommended between professional cleanings. You can disconnect the vent, remove lint and debris by hand, and then vacuum the inside of the vent hose using vacuum extensions. However, a DIY dryer vent cleaning should never replace a professional cleaning. At least once per year, you should hire a professional dryer vent cleaner to clear your dryer vent, regardless of how often you clean it yourself. This schedule will provide peace of mind and increased safety for your family and your home.

You should have your dryer vent cleaned by a professional at least once per year. Over time, lint and other debris from your laundry get caught throughout the vent, causing a few different issues. A less severe problem caused by a clogged dryer vent is extended drying time for your clothes, which increases energy costs. More importantly, lint in a clogged dryer vent can easily catch fire, putting your household members and your home at significant risk. Keep in mind that decades-old dryer vent systems may need increased cleaning, so plan to complete this task twice per year.
