Professional Duct Repair Services
When your ductwork is damaged, your HVAC system works twice as hard to move half the air. You’re paying for conditioned air that never reaches the rooms where you need it.
Professional duct repair fixes the root problem. We seal leaks, reconnect loose joints, and replace damaged sections so your system moves air efficiently again. That means consistent temperatures in every room and energy bills that make sense.
You’ll notice the difference immediately. Rooms that were always too hot or cold start feeling comfortable. Your system runs less but performs better. And those monthly utility bills finally start reflecting what you’re actually using instead of what you’re losing through damaged ducts.

How do I know if my air ducts need repair?
The most obvious signs are uneven temperatures throughout your home, higher than normal energy bills, and rooms that never seem to get comfortable no matter how you adjust the thermostat. You might also notice dust buildup around vents, unusual noises from the ductwork, or weak airflow from certain vents. If your HVAC system runs constantly but doesn’t maintain consistent temperatures, damaged ducts are often the culprit. A professional inspection can identify problems that aren’t immediately visible, like leaks in ducts located in crawl spaces or attics.
What causes air ducts to get damaged in the first place?
Most duct damage happens over time through normal wear and aging, especially with flex ducts that can develop tears or become disconnected at joints. Poor original installation is another common cause, where ducts weren’t properly secured or sealed from the start. Rodents can chew through ductwork, and construction or renovation work sometimes damages ducts accidentally. In older Sequoyah Heights homes, we often see issues with outdated duct materials that weren’t designed to last decades. Temperature changes, settling foundations, and even foot traffic in attics can loosen connections over time.
How much does professional air duct repair typically cost?
Repair costs depend on what’s actually wrong with your system. Simple fixes like reconnecting a loose joint might cost a few hundred dollars, while replacing major sections of damaged ductwork costs more. Most homeowners spend between $500 and $2000 for typical repairs, but we always provide upfront pricing after our inspection so you know exactly what you’re paying before any work begins. The investment usually pays for itself through lower energy bills within the first year. We never give estimates over the phone because every duct system is different and requires an actual inspection to price accurately.
Can I repair damaged air ducts myself or should I hire professionals?
While you might be able to handle very basic issues like changing air filters, most duct repairs require specialized tools, materials, and knowledge of building codes. Improperly sealed repairs often fail quickly and can make problems worse. Professional repairs use commercial-grade sealing materials and techniques that last for years. We also have the diagnostic equipment to identify all the problems in your system, not just the obvious ones. DIY repairs might seem cheaper initially, but they often need to be redone properly later, making professional service more cost-effective in the long run.
How long do air duct repairs typically take to complete?
Most residential duct repairs take between 4 to 8 hours, depending on the extent of the damage and how accessible your ductwork is. Simple repairs like sealing a few leaky joints can be completed in a few hours, while replacing multiple damaged sections takes longer. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine, and your HVAC system remains functional throughout most of the repair process. Complex repairs involving hard-to-reach ducts or major replacements might take a full day. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe after our initial inspection so you can plan accordingly.
Will repairing my air ducts really lower my energy bills?
Yes, properly repaired ductwork typically reduces energy costs by 15-30% because your HVAC system no longer has to work overtime to compensate for lost air. When ducts leak, you’re paying to condition air that never reaches your living spaces. Sealed, efficient ductwork means the air you’re paying to heat or cool actually gets where it needs to go. Most homeowners see noticeable bill reductions within the first month after repairs. The exact savings depend on how damaged your ducts were initially, but energy efficiency improvements are one of the most immediate and measurable benefits of professional duct repair.
