Historic stone colonial home with ivy and a white portico entrance where A Plus Oaks installed a central vacuum system

Installation

We know what is behind your wall before we drill.

Anyone can glue pipe and drill holes. Seventy years in these neighborhoods taught us where the wiring runs and where the framing will fight you. That is the difference between a system that works for thirty years and one that clogs in two.

How a job goes

Four steps, no mystery

01

We walk the house

We look at the floor plan, the attic, the basement and the mechanical room. Then we mark where the inlets belong so you are not vacuuming around furniture.

02

You get a real number

One price, written down, with the unit and the parts listed. No line item surprises after the fact.

03

We run the tubing

Glued joints, supported runs, sweeping turns instead of hard elbows. Done right so the line never clogs.

04

We clean up and show you

We test every inlet, walk you through the system, and take our mess with us.

Hard installs

Others said it could not be done in their house. We did it.

The tricky houses are the ones we like. If a contractor has already told you no, call us before you give up on the idea.

Old homes

Plaster, balloon framing and no straight paths. We find the chase and we patch clean.
