Here at Super Duct Cleaning, we take the time to regularly remind our readers about air duct cleaning scams. There are several quality air duct cleaning companies that have integrity and do honest work. However, unfortunately, there are also several other companies that are only trying to scam people. These companies have no intention of doing any real work; they are just looking to take good people’s money.

For example, in May of this year in Washington D.C., a dirty duct cleaning company was uncovered after they were found to be offering a duct cleaning coupon for $89. A resident there tried to use the coupon but when the technician showed up he told the customer that she had a very bad mold problem and then tried to charge her more than a thousand dollars to do the work.

The first clue that this was a scam was the coupon for $89. There is no way that you can get a real air duct cleaning for only $89. Any time a coupon sounds too good to be true it probably is. This is one of the most common scams that shady air duct cleaning companies use. They promise a cut rate, but then jack up the price once they arrive at your house. They claim to find a bunch of problems that probably don’t exist and then charge you for work that they don’t intend to do.

Don’t fall for one of these scams. Instead, contact a trusted and reliable air duct cleaning company in the Vancouver and Portland area.
