"Ductz of the Upper Bay Region cleaned my ductwork today. The team was professional and friendly. The cost was stated in advance as a firm price and not an estimate. They took before and after pictures which I found very helpful. The owner and his team went above and beyond to suggest ways that I can best maintain my A/C system to minimize the need for cleanings in the future. I recommend them highly."
"hired to clean dryer and bathroom vents. Attached new dryer hose and blew out and cleaned bird nest out of bathroom duct vent. Attached vent/bird covers. Fast, efficient and good pricing. Highly recommend"
"I had a very nice experience with the Best Air Quality and Restoration team. The price seemed fair to me. I purchased the duct cleaning, mold treatment services. Amanda was very helpful in scheduling my appointment; I was hoping for an earlier date; Dennis offered to reach out to me if the option presented itself, which it did a few days later. On the date of the appointment, Sergei called to tell me he was on his way. Sergei and his crew of one were professional and attentive to my questions and needs, being mindful of my 6 month old. I was very satisfied with the service, attention and professionalism of Best Air Quality and Restoration. I would recommend and use their services again in the future."
"Damien did an outstanding job cleaning the air ducts, furnace, and dryer vent in our home. He was prompt, professional, and fairly priced. I appreciated him explaining the process as well. We will definitely use Macks Home Services again!"
"This a great company. I think they called the same day that I contacted Angie’s List looking for area rug cleaning. My contact was Christina, who was very helpful and just all-around nice throughout the whole process. We set up an appointment date and time, and I was sent email and text reminders so I knew exactly when the technician, Dave, would arrive. Dave was great too. He cleaned the area rug in our condo with minimum disruption. Our condo is pretty far from the parking area and he had a hose that made it inside. Dave is also very nice, so nice the we requested him for another carpet cleaning a week or so later. Both carpets were thoroughly cleaned. I believe the pricing was fair and competitive with other companies doing this kind of work. Next month I will be calling them again for duct cleaning."
"I initially was going to have just the dryer vents cleaned but decided to also have the air ducts and vents cleaned since I have lived in the house for 10 years and never had this done. I was amazed! Dan (the technician) took pictures which I am too embarrassed to post. I had a tear in the dryer vent which I was not aware of so I had the hose replaced. I was very impressed with the quality of the work that was done and I highly recommend Dan."
"Marvin was knowledgeable and thorough in explaining everything that he was going to do for us for dryer vent cleaning. We would recommend him to others."
"Legacy Premier Cleaning just completed cleaning my part time home near Chestertown, MD and did a superb job. Jennifer was extremely professional: she gave me a quick quote, scheduled the work right away, and arrived right on time. The job was very thorough, attending to every detail, including laundering linens. I couldn't be more pleased and plan to use this company for all my future cleaning needs. For those of you with vacation rentals, I'd especially recommend as it's hard to find a reliable and punctual service. Thanks, Jennifer!"

Unfortunately, you probably don’t have much legal recourse if you think you’ve been scammed by an air duct cleaning company, but there are some actions you can take. Your first order of business should be to report the issue to the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Your complaint will show up to other customers doing research and, ideally, prevent the scammer from getting to other homeowners. You can also leave a negative review on online review sites. If you got scammed out of a large amount of money, you may want to seek legal counsel for advice.
Ozone can damage building materials and belongings in your home, as the same oxidizing powers that allow it to remove odors can break down other things in your living space. However, it would take long-term exposure for any noticeable damages to occur. Since ozone smoke removal takes 24 to 36 hours, a treatment or two won’t have much of a negative impact on your belongings.
Smoke stains, grease buildup, mold, and water spots are common reasons for hiring professional cleaning services.
Whether an HVAC damper should be open or closed depends on the season, the zone it controls, and the temperature in that zone. In the summer, open upstairs dampers and close lower-level dampers to get the most efficient cooling possible. In the winter, do the opposite. Cool air will naturally flow down to lower levels, while warm air will rise. This keeps your system from working harder and helps prevent common AC problems.
The timeline for smoke damage remediation can range from a single day to several months, depending on the extent of the damage, the size of the affected area, and the methods used. For minor damage, such as removing cigarette smoke odors from a single room, the process might take only one to two days and typically involves deep cleaning, painting, and sealing walls. Some methods, like ozone treatments, can take 24 to 48 hours, though multiple treatments may be necessary. More extensive smoke damage, such as from a house fire, can take three weeks or longer to clean and treat. If significant material restoration or replacement is needed, the timeline can extend to six to 12 months. A smoke damage restoration professional can provide a more accurate estimate for your specific situation.
