Logan and Ryan came to perform a 2 day vent cleaning job in our 2 story house. From the moment they arrived, they were professional, friendly and informative. The dryer vent cleaning went well, but unfortunately the news wasn't as good with the major part of the job: the AC/heating vents. The ones in our attic were made out of an obsolete product too fragile for their cleaning system, so they advised against trying to clean them due to the damage that would incur. They explained that the only solution for cleaning would be to replace, but felt that it was in good enough shape that it didn't necessarily need to be done at this time. I was impressed by this; it instilled trust in me that they were both competent and truthful, and not going to take advantage of me. They then moved on to the duct work in our basement, where the news was pretty bad. They found evidence of significant water damage, resulting in rusting out ducts and "growth" that could be dangerous for us to breathe. We have had water issues down there in the past, but hadn't realized that there are some remaining problems. They provided photo documentation of their finds, and laid out an initial plan for addressing the problem, which involves getting a colleague who specializes in this area to come and evaluate, and also told me what other contractors I might want to contact to address groundwater issues, etc. And they performed some disinfecting and other stopgap steps to mitigate the risk in the short term. So while the only cleaning that happened today was in the dryer vent, and while we face a rather involved and potentially expensive repair job, I feel confident about the recommendations made and like I was treated with respect and honesty. It was one of the better interactions I've had with contractors of any kind.
