"Electrical and plumbing were subcontracted and I have no complaint on their work. However for the work this contractor performed.....It started out okay, complimented his work... But by the time the last of the porch repair and the bathroom reno was completed I realised I had made a huge error of judgement. He insisted in starting the porch work in the fall and then over the winter. When the ground thawed in the spring and the supports no longer met the concrete footing blocks, he used rigid foam boards to shim the concrete blocks up to meet the posts. The floorboards had been removed and proper footings could have been sunk below the frost line, instead it had to be jury rigged and as the ground heave sin the winter and thaws back down, I expect it to be only a matter of time before the folly of this becomes apparent and I will have to get a competent contractor in to fix it. The bathroom was to have a radiant heat floor put in, but the system installed is not meant to be used in a wet room. There is baseboard heat with a pipe running through the floor and that was "sealed" with a piece of moulding and if there is any problem with the heater or the pipe breaks it is harder to get to, nevermind just being able to clean it. I was concerned over the floor system and he promised me that a letter would be coming from the manufacturer saying the system was safe as installed. I spoke to a company rep and they cannot sign off on an installation that they did not witness. So I am unable to recommend this contractor based on any sense I have of his integrity. I am back to using a space heater and When I am able to I will have to have the floor taken up and the correct system put in. There are numerous other minor things, such as the laminate floor being laid with no regard to the pattern on the boards so the same pattern piece was used 3 times next to each other. I did look up how to install this type of floor and found plenty of instructive videos saying how the boards are usually separated by pattern and then laid down in such a way to be random and give the illusion of real wood. The result on my floor does not demonstrate to me an attention to detail. The light over the shower, an upgraded ceiling fan, an additional outlet or two were all part of the plan but were never installed. There were assertions like a new outlet would have cost $400. I checked with the electrician myself and was told that was not the price they would charge and did not understand why that would have been quoted. When issues were raised it was mentioned that he had a lien on someone's house who didn't want to pay for their finished projects. So, there is a lot of work to redo and since the money isn't there I will have to live with things as they are for a while. Not the result I was expecting after 6 months (way beyond the estimated time) of work having been done and at no small expense. I will try to post photos to illustrate what I have mentioned above."

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.
