With dedication and hard work, this family-owned business has become a popular choice for all air duct cleaning, dryer vent cleaning and chimney cleaning service needs. When you call us, you are inviting well-trained, experienced, and certified professionals.

"Got a groupon for $69 for whole house unlimited air duct cleaning. Was told when I made the appointment that the groupon that additional main would cost between $100-189 addition per main as some homes have more than 1 main. I made a appointment for 8/21 but they called a few days prior to cancel and had the appointment rescheduled to today, 10/2. The guys arrived on time in the provided window. I was told my home had 3 mains and the groupon only covered 1. Each additional main was $189 (suprisingly it went to the higher amount I was told) for additional $378 ontop of my $69 groupon. I told them to just do the work for the groupon for the one main but they advised they could not cause when they "hook up" their system it would clean everything. They offered a "deal" for $329 and promised to refund my $69 groupon. I regret it but I took the $329 "deal." I honestly don't know if they cleaned anything because it entailed the guys blowing compressed air into my air vents and hooking up a vacuum hose into my basement return air supply vent. I was told the vacuum hose was used to create negative pressure to collect the dust/debri. It was a very quiet vacuum, didnt seem like it was ever on. I even went outside to their van where it was but didn't hear anything besides the air compressor. The vacuum hose was filled with some many holes I highly doubt there was a "negative pressure." I saw guy was trying patching up the vacuum hose with tape. My expecatations from previous duct cleanings was that someone would use air and agiator to break/loosen up dirt/dust but it was never used. The guys had a agiator on them never once saw them use it or heard it as it would bang against the duct work if they were. Additionally in the past duct cleanings, to create negative pressure they would seal air and return vents but none were done. I have a 4000 sq. feet home and it was done in less than an hour and they were just hanging outside of my home. Doesn't seem like any cleaning was done and there is no difference in the duct work."

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

There are no strict rules for who is responsible for covering repair costs after a home inspection, but major issues with the home often result in a renegotiation. The seller may agree to lower the price to compensate for the cost of the repairs to the buyer, or the seller may agree to fix the repairs before the sale is complete.

Beyond having an inspection, it’s important to do chimney maintenance at least annually to be certain the chimney is safe to use. Cleaning the flue of any built-up particles, creosote, and soot reduces the risk of fire. Fortunately, the cost of hiring a pro to do a chimney inspection often includes a chimney cleaning, so you may not have an extra expense for maintenance.

Any unexplained smell in your house should be investigated. However, some home odors are "red flag" worrisome because they pose immediate health and safety risks. Odors should be taken seriously when accompanied by headaches, nausea, or lightheadedness. If you smell an egg-like aroma, this is probably natural gas. You should leave the home immediately, and  contact your gas company.  

Wood-burning fireplaces typically make homeowners insurance more expensive, simply because they increase the risk for a fire in your home. Gas and electric inserts are less likely to bring up your insurance rates, but you should always speak with your agent to understand how installing any type of fireplace will affect your premiums.

Federal law doesn’t require homeowners to disclose the presence of asbestos in their home, but some states and local municipalities may require it. That is why it’s important to test an older home for asbestos and other health hazards before moving forward with a sale.
