"Handy Hubby Steve repaired cement stairs and installed a new outside back door. He did an awesome job. Steve was always on time and made sure everything was done properly. His prices were very reasonable. Great personality. Very personable. I will definitely use him in the future for any other repairs I need done."

"It was difficult getting Roger into Manhattan.  He wasn't prepared to bring his vehicle and supplies into Manhattan.  My first appointment had to be rescheduled because he wasn't sure about parking.  He had someone wait in the vehicle and he came up and I showed him the  projects I needed to get done.  He was apologetic but after waiting around for him all afternoon it was very inconvenient to have to reschedule.   While he was there he suggested that I mount my TV which I hadn't been planning to do but it was a good idea.  He thought that if I wanted to buy the mount he could do it in addition to my other projects.
After much going back and forth and resending of my address, Roger arrived for our rescheduled appointment.  He came by train so he didn't bring his supplies.  My project list included: installing bathroom door handle, checking why my ceiling fan wasn't working and installing the TV mount.  He was able to get the door handle installed and the TV mount.  Because he didn't have his full tool bag  he didn't have the circuit tester.  So he was unable to get the ceiling fan working.
Before leaving, I showed him my kitchen because in the future I wanted to put down new floor tiles and a backsplash.  He suggested a new countertop and said he would bring by samples but I have never heard from him again.
He did a good job installing the door handle and the TV but I felt he did not come prepared to do the ceiling fan. This was an Angie's deal so the price was good.  I think that was also why he was overbooked and having trouble keeping up with appointments.

Install Central Vacuum questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.
