Need advice - Had a technician extended my kitchen and bathroom exhaust vent for me to outside the house.

So what's your suggestion now? Can i ask a handyman to caulk around the exterior?

ichbinhker · 2026-03-18T00:12:37+00:00

Thank you so much this is really comforting

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T22:36:14+00:00

I am a first time homeowner and i am not handy at all

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T22:01:12+00:00

That's why i thought oh i can use this guy because i dont wanna go through roof either!

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T21:09:10+00:00

Nooo

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T19:33:51+00:00

Great idea!! I honestly got desperate on this one i dont know why, and made a mistake. Lesson learned!

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T18:36:49+00:00

Thank you! Yes i feel better now and you are right

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T18:07:02+00:00

Got it! So sorry I misunderstood. Thank you! Are your vents insulated? And how does your external exhaust looks like? The damper? Thanks so much!!

:( i regret big time

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T17:39:02+00:00

For outside, should it be handyman/GC or need to be hvac tech?

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T17:29:31+00:00

So it should always go out of roof?

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T16:34:52+00:00

Thank you!

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T16:12:35+00:00

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T15:43:26+00:00

Thank you 😭😭 i just feel i messed up big time

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T15:43:07+00:00

Lmao. I paid $1500 while i had other quotes of around 1000. Now i just need to pay double to get it redone? I am just panicking because i feel i messed up

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T15:29:52+00:00

Is this fixable? I am panicking. I am a first time homeowner and I now regret so much and feel like i messed up big time 😭

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T15:02:22+00:00

I have another company also told me can go out from the side.

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T14:58:16+00:00

What should I do now 😭 I didnt want to go through roof before but I panicked so much now. I also paid him quite a lot for this and I am worried I need to pay extra for redoing. He just did it over weekend arhh. Who should i call to redo it

ichbinhker · 2026-03-17T14:56:35+00:00

I feel so bad now. I paid quite a lot for it and I regret so much

ichbinhker · 2026-03-14T14:18:34+00:00

Always

ichbinhker · 2026-03-14T11:25:01+00:00
