"We hired Advantage Remediation Services to address a mold and radon issue in our recently purchased home, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Joel did an outstanding job—he successfully reduced the radon levels to a safe range and thoroughly remediated the mold. His attention to detail was impressive, and he took the time to explain every step of the process, ensuring we felt confident in his work. He also cleaned out duct work as well as the entire house. After the post-remediation testing, we were thrilled to confirm that our home was safe to occupy. I highly recommend Advantage Remediation Services for anyone in need of professional and reliable remediation solutions. "

The problem with most "pros"? Too many bad habits. It's easy to get swept away in the day to day monotony, even for those that call themselves "pros". When it comes to hiring a heating and cooling technician, nobody wants to deal with being treated like a sale rather than a person, the use of scare tactics instead of education, or someone who just wants to get to job done quickly instead of correctly. All our HVAC pros go through 5 years of HVAC schooling, for a total of 10,000 hours of on-the-job training. And it's not just technical training either; it's training that focuses on you, on making you feel comfortable every step of the way. We will roll out the red carpet for you, both figuratively and literally. Red Carpet Treatment During every visit to a home, we lay out an actual red carpet to prevent any additional mess. But what may be even more important than just protecting your home is making sure you feel like you've received the best in customer service.
"The Technician, Christian Ray arrived on time, was very professional & did a great job with checking & cleaning my AC unit in preparation for the summer season. I would recommend Calfo & would request Christian for my next service call. "

All your masonry needs from new brick, block or stonework.. Retaining walls..chimney repair..whole house repointing..lintel replacement..step cracks ..mortar matching..no job too big or small
"A Cut Above many other Contractors! We had needed brick pointing done on our home for a few years. We are also in the middle of a renovation project for our game room and that included the installation of a sliding glass door where a window was. The door install required that a steel lintel be moved up to accommodate the height of the new door. We were very fortunate that we called Michener Chimney and Masonry to come and have a look. They came out in a timely fashion and gave their estimate to us in just a few days. Once we agreed to get the work done, Jim and his team from Michener began the work quickly. They were professional and friendly and did a wonderful job on all of the aspects of the project. Communication with them was easy, clear and accurate. We would highly recommend anyone needing brick or masonry work to use Michener Chimney and Masonry. Thank you Jim for doing such an amazing job and keeping our renovation project on-time and with your quality craftsmanship!"

"The cleaning itself was great, really top-notch. Getting ahold of Ashley for anything (schedule change, additional cleaning, etc.) was impossible. I tried calling and emailing multiple times over 2 years. Responses were rare, and if they occurred it was generally so delayed that it no longer mattered. We have decided to change providers due to this issue."

Yes, cleaning air ducts is worth it because it improves your HVAC system's efficiency and extends its lifespan. Dust and dirt accumulation force the system to work harder, increasing energy costs. By removing contaminants from your ducts, you enhance indoor air quality and create a healthier environment for your household.
You should get your air ducts cleaned at least every three to five years to maintain optimal indoor air quality and system efficiency. Additionally, consider scheduling a cleaning after purchasing a new home, completing a remodeling project, or if you notice signs of mold, pests, or excessive dust. Regular cleanings help prevent allergens from circulating and keep your HVAC system running smoothly.
You can tell your air ducts need to be cleaned if you notice visible mold growth inside ducts or on other HVAC components, excessive dust or debris blowing out of vents, or musty odors when the system is running. Other signs include unexplained allergy symptoms, inconsistent airflow, increased energy bills, or evidence of rodent or insect infestations in your ductwork.
Yes, air duct cleaning can cause damage if not performed correctly. DIY efforts or hiring uncertified companies may lead to damaged ductwork, loosened connections, or punctures that reduce system efficiency. Professional duct cleaners use specialized equipment and follow industry standards to ensure thorough cleaning without harming your ducts, so it's important to hire qualified professionals.
No, standard duct cleaning does not remove mold. While cleaning can remove visible dust and debris, mold requires specialized remediation. If a professional cleaner discovers mold in your air ducts, they will have it tested to identify the type and extent. Then, a certified mold remediation specialist should address the issue to eliminate mold from your ducts and prevent it from returning.
You can decrease the need for frequent air duct cleanings by regularly changing your HVAC filters every one to three months, using high-quality filters that trap more dust and allergens. Keeping your home clean by vacuuming and dusting regularly reduces the amount of debris entering the ducts. Sealing any gaps in your ductwork can prevent dust accumulation, and maintaining your HVAC system with regular professional inspections helps ensure optimal performance.
