What Fixed Ducts Really Mean

Your energy bills drop because conditioned air actually reaches the rooms instead of leaking into crawl spaces and walls. Every room hits the temperature you set on the thermostat.

The dust stops circulating through your house because there aren’t gaps letting attic debris and allergens into your air supply. Your HVAC system stops working overtime trying to compensate for damaged ductwork.

You get consistent comfort, cleaner air, and lower monthly bills. That’s what happens when your ductwork actually does its job instead of fighting against you.

Kensington HVAC Duct Specialists

We Know Kensington's Ductwork Challenges

We’ve been fixing ductwork problems throughout the Bay Area for years. We understand how Kensington’s older homes settle and shift, creating the gaps and disconnections that kill your comfort and efficiency.

Most of the duct problems we see here aren’t mysterious. They’re predictable issues that happen in homes built before modern ductwork standards. We’ve seen it all, and we know exactly how to fix it right the first time.

Our Duct Repair Process

Here's How We Fix Your Ducts

We start with a complete inspection of your ductwork system, checking every accessible section for leaks, disconnections, damage, and airflow problems. You get photos of what we find so you can see exactly what needs attention.

Then we give you upfront pricing for the repairs. No surprises, no upselling. Just honest assessment of what needs to be fixed and what it costs.

The actual repair work depends on what we found. Most jobs involve sealing leaks, reconnecting separated sections, replacing damaged portions, or upgrading undersized ducts. We clean up completely and test the system to make sure everything works properly before we leave.

Complete Air Duct Fixing

What's Included in Every Repair

Every duct repair job includes a thorough system inspection, photo documentation of problems, and detailed explanation of what needs to be fixed. We handle everything from minor leak sealing to complete section replacement.

You get professional-grade materials designed for California’s climate and seismic activity. We don’t use temporary fixes or cheap materials that fail in a few years. The goal is solving your ductwork problems permanently.

We also check for related issues like inadequate insulation, improper sizing, or design problems that could cause future failures. Better to address everything at once than have us back next year for something we could have prevented.

How do I know if my air ducts need repair?

High energy bills are usually the first sign, especially if they’ve increased without explanation. Rooms that won’t reach the right temperature, excessive dust, or strange noises from your HVAC system also indicate duct problems. If you can see visible damage like disconnected sections, crushed ducts, or obvious gaps, you definitely need repairs. Many Kensington homes have ductwork issues simply due to age and settling, so if your system is over 15 years old and you’re experiencing comfort or efficiency problems, an inspection usually reveals repairable damage.

Should I repair my ducts or replace the whole system?

Most ductwork problems can be repaired without full replacement. We typically recommend replacement only when the majority of the system is damaged, improperly sized, or so old that repairs would cost nearly as much as starting over. In Kensington’s older homes, we often find that 70-80% of the ductwork is fine and just needs targeted repairs on problem sections. A proper inspection will show you exactly what condition your ducts are in and whether strategic repairs can solve your problems at a fraction of replacement cost.

How long does air duct repair take?

Most duct repairs take 4-8 hours depending on what needs to be fixed and how accessible your ductwork is. Simple leak sealing might take a few hours, while replacing damaged sections in hard-to-reach areas takes longer. We’ll give you a time estimate after the inspection so you know what to expect. The good news is that most repairs don’t require shutting down your HVAC system for extended periods. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine and restore your system’s performance as quickly as possible.

What causes air ducts to get damaged?

In Kensington, house settling is the biggest culprit. As foundations shift slightly over time, ductwork connections separate or get crushed. Poor installation from decades ago also creates problems as substandard materials deteriorate. Rodents sometimes damage ducts, and in some cases, other contractors working in crawl spaces or attics accidentally damage ductwork. Age is a factor too – older duct materials weren’t designed to last as long as modern systems. The combination of California’s seismic activity and normal settling means even well-installed older ductwork eventually needs attention.

Will duct repair really lower my energy bills?

Yes, if your ducts are actually damaged. Leaky ductwork can waste 20-40% of your conditioned air, forcing your HVAC system to work much harder to maintain temperature. When we seal those leaks and fix airflow problems, your system doesn’t have to run as long or work as hard. Most customers see noticeable bill reductions within the first month after proper repairs. The exact savings depend on how damaged your ducts were, but fixing significant ductwork problems typically pays for itself within a year or two through lower energy costs.

Do you offer emergency duct repair services?

Yes, we provide same-day emergency duct repair when your HVAC system stops working due to ductwork problems. Complete system failures, major disconnections, or damage that leaves you without heating or cooling qualify for emergency service. We understand that ductwork failures don’t wait for convenient times, especially during extreme weather. While not every duct problem requires emergency attention, we’re available when you need immediate repairs to restore your home’s comfort and safety. Call us to discuss your situation and we’ll let you know if emergency service is appropriate.
