This week Air Duct Cleaning The supply and return ducts cleaned properly, with the equipment that actually removes debris rather than moving it around. Worth doing for real reasons, and not worth doing on a schedule. In Taylor-Massey → Can wait Dryer Vent Cleaning The single most useful job on this list. A blocked dryer vent is a fire risk and an obvious one, and clearing it is cheap. In Taylor-Massey → This week Furnace Cleaning The blower, the coil and the cabinet. In a Toronto house the furnace runs for half the year, and a dirty blower wheel costs more in electricity than the clean does. In Taylor-Massey → This week HRV and ERV Cleaning The heat recovery ventilator almost every Ontario house built since the 1990s has, and almost nobody has ever cleaned. It is the unit in the basement with two pipes going outside. In Taylor-Massey → This week Condo and High-Rise Duct Cleaning In-suite fan coil units, bathroom and kitchen exhaust risers, and make-up air. Toronto has more of this housing than anywhere in the country and most of it has never been touched. In Taylor-Massey → This week Duct Sanitizing and Deodorizing An additional step after cleaning, not a substitute for it. Worth asking what is being applied and whether it is actually needed. In Taylor-Massey → Can wait Duct Mould Removal Growth on duct surfaces, usually near the coil where it is damp. This is one of the reasons duct cleaning is genuinely warranted. In Taylor-Massey → This week Duct Repair and Sealing Leaking joints and disconnected branches. In a Toronto basement the ductwork is usually accessible, which makes this cheaper here than in a house with everything in the attic. In Taylor-Massey → This week Furnace Humidifier Cleaning The bypass or steam humidifier on the furnace. Necessary in a Toronto winter, and a reliable source of trouble when it is left alone. In Taylor-Massey → This week Commercial Duct Cleaning Offices, restaurants, retail and multi-unit. Larger systems, rooftop units, and usually work that has to happen when the building is empty. In Taylor-Massey → This week Indoor Air Quality Testing Measuring rather than guessing. Worth doing before spending money on anything else, and worth being told when the ducts are not the problem.

Why the work is like this in Taylor-Massey

Taylor-Massey is dense enough, around people, that a smell rarely belongs to the suite that reports it. The riser is shared and so is the problem. Toronto's humid continental — long cold winters, humid summers, and a freeze-thaw shoulder season either side climate and its housing — Victorian and Edwardian semis through the old city, postwar bungalows and backsplits across Scarborough, North York and Etobicoke, and a downtown core that is almost entirely towers — set what is worth doing. Two things separate Toronto from a milder city here. The furnace runs for roughly half the year, so anything wrong with airflow costs money for six months rather than two. And houses built to Ontario standards since the 1990s are deliberately airtight with an HRV to ventilate them — a unit almost nobody has cleaned, which is why windows fog in February in houses that are otherwise fine.

When to book in Taylor-Massey

Heating runs from roughly October to April. Early autumn is when this work is easiest to book and when it makes the most difference. That is context rather than a reason to wait: this is work people call about on the day it happens.

Which parts of Taylor-Massey?

Technicians cover the whole of Taylor-Massey, including Dentonia Park, Secord Community Centre, Crescent Town Elementary School, Faith Presbyterian Community Church and Donora Park.

If you are just outside Taylor-Massey, Woodbine-Lumsden, Oakridge, East End-Danforth, Clairlea-Birchmount, O'Connor-Parkview and Woodbine Corridor are covered as well.

How it works

Three steps, and you decide at the end of them.

  1. 1

    You call and describe the problem

    Tell us what you have noticed and where — the room, the smell, the noise, how long it has been going on. Give us your postal code and we will match you to a licensed company covering Taylor-Massey. There is no form to fill in.

  2. 2

    A local company takes it from there

    They discuss the problem with you directly, arrange a time to inspect, and agree the work and the price with you before anything starts. That conversation is between you and them.

  3. 3

    You decide whether to go ahead

    You are under no obligation. If the quote or the approach is not what you wanted, you are free to say no and call someone else.

Air Duct Cleaning in Taylor-Massey — FAQs

Will someone actually come out to Taylor-Massey?

Yes — our partners work Taylor-Massey itself, including Dentonia Park, Secord Community Centre, Crescent Town Elementary School and Faith Presbyterian Community Church, not just the nearest big city. If you are on the edge of town, give us your postal code on the call and we will confirm it in seconds.

How soon can someone come out in Taylor-Massey?

Often within a couple of days, and same-day for anything urgent.

How do I know the work is actually needed in Taylor-Massey?

Ask what they found rather than only what they recommend — photographs, a written scope, and which parts are urgent against which can wait. A company worth using will tell you when something does not need doing at all. Two things separate Toronto from a milder city here. The furnace runs for roughly half the year, so anything wrong with airflow costs money for six months rather than two. And houses built to Ontario standards since the 1990s are deliberately airtight with an HRV to ventilate them — a unit almost nobody has cleaned, which is why windows fog in February in houses that are otherwise fine.

What makes this different in Toronto?

Anything involving the gas appliance itself belongs with a TSSA-registered contractor, which duct cleaning is not. Ontario does not licence duct cleaning, so the checks worth making are liability insurance, a WSIB clearance certificate, and whether the technician holds NADCA certification — voluntary, but it means something. Heating runs from roughly October to April. Early autumn is when this work is easiest to book and when it makes the most difference.

Are your partners insured?

Ontario does not licence this trade at provincial level, so the documents worth asking for are liability insurance and a WSIB clearance certificate. Any legitimate partner will show you both without being chased.

I am just outside Taylor-Massey — is that covered?

Almost certainly. The same companies work Woodbine-Lumsden, Oakridge, East End-Danforth, Clairlea-Birchmount and O'Connor-Parkview. Give us your ZIP postal code on the call and we will confirm right away.

What does this cost in Taylor-Massey?

It depends on the property, the size of the system and what the inspection finds, so we do not publish a price — a figure quoted here is not one the attending company has agreed to. Be wary of a per-vent price quoted over the phone before anyone has seen the system; the number of vents is not what decides the work. You get a price for your Taylor-Massey property before anything starts.

Do we come to your address?

Put in your postal code and we will tell you right away.
