Air Duct Cleaning who should I hire?

When searching for a company don’t just ask for a price, find out something about who you are hiring. When you step into the service industry you never know quite what you will get. Just asking do you clean ducts and how much, will deprive you of your money and leave it to chance that who you are hiring will give you a good job, bad job or no job.

Over the years I have heard you do a good job but I just want to pay for an ok job. Is there such a thing? No. The cheap guy is cheap for a reason. You get what you pay for and with air duct cleaning, the lowest price usually means a bad job which can be worst than no job. You’ll be lucky after the cheap guy comes out and the price stays cheap, usually the price goes up, way up. Most cheap guys are bait and switch, meaning the cheap price is a come on to get their foot in the door to your home, and once they arrive the price goes up, way up. The price going way up doesn’t mean you’re going to get a good job unfortunately you are probably going to get a bad job and just be out a lot of money.

A bad job can loosen up all the dust and debris in your ducts, and this loose debris can be blown through out your home making the situation worse. No dust removed but dust all over your home. Think before you hire. We only believe in doing the highest quality of work. Why settle for less?

The Lowest Bidder

“It’s unwise to pay too much, but it is worse to pay to little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money -- that is all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot -- it can’t be done. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run. And if you do that, you will have enough to pay for something better.”

John Ruskin (1919 - 1900)

Most fiberglass filters are 5% filters, this means that they stop only 5% of the particles which pass through them. For better indoor air quality, and increase furnace system longevity use an electrostatic filter. High efficiency filters can stop from 95% to 97% of the particles passing through them. These contaminants circulate throughout the house and you breathe these particles. Allergy suffers can find relief with better filtration and regular air duct cleaning.
