"Excellent, in spite of issues identified with previous installation. Jeff leveled everything, trued everything, and made it all right! He was excellent, and was careful, deliberate, and thoughtful in his preparation and planning. I will recommend him without hesitation for interior remodeling."

"The good and the bad. Small jobs may be ok but a large job seems to be to much to handle. For the good They showed up on time The price was good They were polite Now for the bad The gentleman does not speak good English so communicating is difficult. They didn’t put any floor protection down i.e. paper so the floor was a complete mess. Drywall mud all over and also spray paint on tile. When installing the drywall there were a bunch of huge gaps, which exceeded a half inch. Drywall gaps should not exceed more than a quarter inch. When hired I told them, I wanted the drywall to be as smooth as my other walls however, there were a bunch of imperfections. When I seen, they started painting with a $50 per gallon paint that I purchased that was a paint and primer in one , I immediately stopped them because you could see the imperfections so I said you have to do the primer first. As with any Drywall job if they are not 100% percent perfect they need to place primer to see all the imperfections and make the repairs otherwise when you put a semi gloss paint on all the imperfections will pop out. After speaking with the wife, I was told to Mark any spots that needed fixing which I did before they came out another day. When he shown up, he appeared to be irritated. He said he is done and doesn’t want additional payment. I paid them 2000 versus the 3000 however, the following was not completed. Painting on the new Drywall Touching up the flaws on the Drywall Doing the tile work on the fireplace Painting the stairwell I would not recommend them for a large Drywall job unless you are looking to have only drywall hung without having the finishing / mudding performed."

Install Central Vacuum questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost to install a central vacuum cleaner system averages about $1,600, ranging from $1,100 to $2,200, depending on the size of the system, add-on features, your home’s location, and age of the system. Accessibility to running lines and other equipment can also impact the project cost. Consult a central vacuum cleaner installation company for an accurate estimate of your installation cost.

They’ll use more electricity than the average upright vacuum, but not remarkably more. Most power units plug into a standard 120-volt outlet and don’t have significant power demands. You shouldn’t notice an increase in electricity bills. If you have any specific questions about energy costs, ask your installer as you examine purchase decisions. Larger power units will need more electricity for their suction levels.

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.

A central vacuum system can be a worthwhile investment depending on your needs and budget. While the upfront cost is higher than a traditional vacuum cleaner, it offers significant long-term benefits. These systems can save you time and make cleaning your home easier, as you only need to carry the hose and vacuum head, eliminating the need to lug a heavy unit up and down stairs. They also tend to operate more quietly and can improve indoor air quality. The convenience and performance over many years may make it a valuable addition to your home if you can budget for the initial installation.
