Hey folks, I’ve been considering starting my own small business, and duct cleaning seems like a niche with solid demand. I don’t have any prior experience in HVAC though, just general handyman work. Do you think this is something one can realistically get into without a trade background?

There’s definitely a market for it, especially in suburban areas. Just need to know the rules and equipment side of things.

Starting a duct cleaning business can be a smart move if you approach it strategically. Many successful operators didn’t begin with HVAC licenses but learned along the way. The second thing you need, after motivation, is proper knowledge. This guide really helped me understand https://comfortclean.com/how-to-start-a-duct-cleaning-business-advice-from-the-experts/ how to start a duct cleaning business. It covers equipment, pricing, marketing tips, and regulations. I started with part-time jobs to build skills, then gradually scaled. My advice is to shadow a pro if you can and study your local codes. Customer service makes a huge difference too — people remember punctuality and cleanliness more than you think.

I am sure that your direction is very promising. The most important thing is to find a company that will help you register your business. I would like to recommend you the Confidus Solutions - many years of experience and professionalism allow them to provide first-class services.
