I am a handyman looking to help you with your next big idea. I can do construction work like framing, flooring, window installation, bathroom remodels including tile and plumbing. I can do small roofing, gutter cleaning and window cleaning. I can do general maintenance work for you like shovelling snow, lawn and garden work, lighting installation, and filter cleaning. Got a big idea and need some extra help? Give me a call. I'm available most afternoons, Wednesdays thru Saturdays.
"Ken is AWESOME! He was the Only one who responded to my need. It was Thanksgiving day and my kitten had already spent a day and a night stuck high in a tree and afraid to get back down. It was such a cold night I couldnt have her go through another! And thats exactly what Ken said too when he read my need. He was at my house within 30 minutes Thanksgiving day. He was sharing it with his loved ones at the time I messaged him so he let me know he would say his goodbyes and be on his way. He showed up, ready to rescue and I was so happy to see him! I really didnt know what I would have done otherwise! He is such a good hearted man, making sure he had a treat for the kitten when he got to her and then putting her inside his coat, for warmth, as he climbed down the ladder. When it got time to pay, he smiled and told me Happy Thanksgiving. WOW! I think anyone else would have charged extra because it was a holiday! I 100% recommend Kendoes Handy Work and will call him if I need a helping hand. And not because he didnt charge me, but because I could tell hes an honest, hard working, caring man and that I could trust him in my home for any job. This guy knows how to do everything!!"

Hurliman Heating is a second generation locally owned family business, in operation since 1956. We pride ourselves on quality work and customer satisfaction. Our knowledgeable staff will go the extra mile to ensure our customers are happy.
"Hurliman installed a furnace for us on 12/20/23 and an air conditioning unit this summer. While the state inspector came to look at the air conditioning unit he also looked at the furnace. Although last winter Hurliman told us the furnace passed inspection after it was installed- it was NEVER INSPECTED and the inspector found three code violations. Our broken air conditioning unit was misdiagnosed by their tech and we spent $1,937 on a so-called fix that didn't work. We were then given an estimate for a $7,604.20 new AC unit which was higher than the price range listed on their website. Although they listed eight different AC manufacturers on their website that should have various price points, they refused to offer us estimates for any other more affordable units because there was so much demand in the summer so they "don't have to". That's not a company with integrity, that's called gouging. We ended up going with one of their competitors who installed a quality air conditioner (one of the same brands listed on Hurliman's website) for almost $2,000 less than what Hurliman was going to charge us."

Heat pumps rely on evaporation and condensation processes. The unit transfers heat through the system via a compressed refrigerant. The compressor within the pump circulates the refrigerant through two coils. The first coil evaporates the refrigerant and absorbs warmth from the air. The refrigerant then passes to the second coil, at which point it condenses, and the unit releases the absorbed heat.
A heat pump lasts anywhere from 12 to 20 years, depending on how well you maintain it, the type of heat pump, the brand, and the quality.
Your cost to run a heat pump ranges from $500 to $2,000 per year. It depends heavily on your climate, your house insulation, and if your system has a backup heat source. Solar heat pumps generate their own heat from solar energy and can save you money overall.
Heat pump repairs cost an average of $150 to $600. You might pay $65 on the low end or $1,400 on the higher end.
For similarly sized central units, air conditioners are cheaper than a two-way heat pump. Keep in mind that an AC is a heat pump, but it only works in one direction. A central AC unit costs between $3,800 and $7,600 to install, compared to $4,100 to $18,000 or more for a heat pump.
Whether a furnace or heat pump costs less to warm your home depends largely on the type you have and your climate. For example, these systems usually cost less in southern states with mild weather. In colder northern climates, a gas furnace does better with a heat pump. Backup heating and insulation also play a role. Talk to a heat pump installer about costs and climate before you commit to one or the other.
