"Originally I had them come out to look because my downstairs A/C system was cooling sporadically. The technician was really friendly, polite and informed me that it would be $1500 to replace the variable motor b/c it was completely done. My system is just now at 10 years old. I decided to compare the cost of getting a new unit which I ended up doing. I got different estimates but Andy gave me the best deal for the best unit out of all the estimates. Install went great, the technicians were very polite, professional and my house is cooling again."

Hello, I am a furniture maker that has skills that reach beyond the shop. While designing and creating beautiful furniture is my mainstay, I also preform handyman duties as well, mostly ranging in finish carpentry, installation of fixtures, as well as general around the house upgrades and repairs. With skills and interest in how things work I have learned the necessary skills to be a jack-of-all-trades. As a handyman I do not stray outside of my knowledge base just to earn a dollar. I've been helping people fix and maintain their homes for years before I began doing it professionally. Let me help you, too. Whether you just need some pictures hung on the wall, an old table leg to stop squeaking, or a brand new dining room table design and built, I am here to help you accomplish your goals! With an eye for detail and design, an education in design and a love for crafting beautiful objects, I have cultivated the skills to help design and build custom pieces that anyone would be happy to have in their home!

"Jarod is the best. We have used him on multiple occasions. There doesn't seem to be anything that he can't do… Installation, repair, production.... I will continue to call Jarod time after time after time."

Central a/c installations FAQs

If you’re replacing an old AC system with a new unit, you can usually clean and repair the old ductwork without having to conduct a full replacement. Cleaning HVAC ducts typically costs around $400, while repairs range from $200 to $1,000. In contrast, installing new ductwork can range from $1,000 to $5,000, making it far more costly than cleaning or fixing existing ducts. HVAC installation costs an average of $7,000 to replace a full system, so staying on top of maintenance and repairs is important.

AC cost efficiency depends on the size of your space and your long-term plans for your home. If you only need to cool a small area, a portable AC unit has a low upfront cost. Heat pumps are typically the most cost-effective option if you want to cool an entire home or improve the resale value. They provide strong cooling while being energy-efficient, which saves you money on your utility bills compared to most other AC types.

Installing a central AC unit typically takes four to eight hours if your home already has ductwork in place. However, if new ductwork needs to be installed, this can add another one to two days of labor to your project.
