At J and M Services, we’re happy to help our customers cut costs whenever possible! We would MUCH rather save you a few bucks and hopefully earn your Friend / Neighbor / Families work than nitpick to get every last dollar out of you. We can pull the permit for you when required for a small fee, or we offer free email and/or phone advice if you want to pull your own permit. While we do charge for a return trip to install a gas appliance, we don’t mind providing FREE consultation if you would rather do it yourself. How many businesses do you know that will tell you that up front?

Dryer vents are often routed excessively long, with too many turns, bends and 90’s or improper installation. We can up-size the duct for better flow and less lint accumulation. We can improve the routing by reducing bends and improving airflow. Very commonly we see cheap aluminum duct from local hardware stores instead of commercial quality galvanized ducting like we install. The cheap product falls apart and corrodes much faster.

Many of our competitors like to brag about their powerful truck-mounted vacuums. We use portable machines for good reason. We think they provide a much better service and are less intrusive to the system. The large truck mounted machines cut an 8″ hole in the duct work near the furnace, then count on their powerful vac motors to suck all the debris back through the system and the hole they cut in. Our machines have a hose with suction and a spinning brush sized to fit existing entries to each individual duct, doing a much more thorough job and putting the powerful vacuum right in contact with the debris.

By specializing, we have an edge in knowledge of our trade over many larger, fully mechanical companies. We’re also able to purchase our materials in bulk, receiving more pipe monthly than they do, giving us a significant costs savings. Additionally, our vans are specifically set up for gas piping, allowing us to cut labor time. In both cases, we pass the savings on to you. What’s more, we only use the best tools for our trade: Ridgid brand aluminum pipe wrenches, CSST specific tubing cutters and self oiling Ridgid 300 compact pipe machines. So, while many of our competitors use tri stand machines that must be assembled and disassembled at each job (taking 30 minutes to set up each time), it takes us only 5 minutes and we’re ready to roll.
