What You Get When We Fix It Right

Your home feels comfortable again. Every room reaches the temperature you set without your HVAC system running constantly.

You’ll notice the difference in your energy bills within the first month. Properly sealed ductwork means conditioned air goes where it’s supposed to go instead of heating your crawl space or attic.

The dust stops accumulating as fast because air isn’t pulling debris through gaps and tears in your ductwork. Your family breathes cleaner air, and you spend less time cleaning.

Walnut Creek HVAC Duct Experts

We Know Walnut Creek Homes Inside Out

We’ve been fixing ductwork problems in Walnut Creek for years. We understand how homes in this area are built and what typically goes wrong with their HVAC systems.

Most of the homes we work on were built when ductwork standards were different. We see the same issues repeatedly – poor connections, undersized returns, and ductwork that was never properly sealed.

We’re licensed, insured, and we live in the community we serve. When we tell you what needs fixing, it’s because it actually needs fixing.

Our Air Duct Repair Process

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we inspect your entire duct system with cameras and pressure testing equipment. You’ll see exactly what we’re seeing – the disconnected joints, torn sections, and areas where air is escaping.

We give you a clear explanation of what needs repair and what it costs before we start any work. No surprises, no pressure to fix things that don’t actually need fixing.

The repair work uses professional-grade materials designed for your specific ductwork type. We seal connections with mastic compound, replace damaged sections completely, and test everything to make sure it’s working properly. You get photos of the completed work so you can see the difference.

Complete Ductwork Repair Solutions

Everything Included in Your Duct Repair

Your duct repair includes a complete system inspection, professional-grade sealing materials, and replacement of any sections that can’t be effectively repaired. We use mastic sealant and metal-backed tape that meets industry standards.

We also check your return air pathways because inadequate returns cause many of the comfort problems people blame on their ductwork. If your system can’t pull air back efficiently, it won’t heat or cool evenly no matter how well the supply ducts are sealed.

Many Walnut Creek homes have ductwork in unconditioned spaces like crawl areas or attics. We pay special attention to insulation around repaired sections because temperature differences cause condensation problems that lead to mold and efficiency loss.

You’ll usually notice uneven temperatures between rooms, higher than normal energy bills, or excessive dust even after cleaning. Some people hear whistling sounds when their HVAC system runs, which indicates air escaping through gaps. If you have rooms that never seem to get comfortable or your system runs constantly trying to reach the set temperature, damaged ductwork is often the cause. A professional inspection can pinpoint exactly where problems exist and whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
Duct cleaning removes dust and debris from inside your ducts, but it doesn’t fix structural problems like tears, disconnected joints, or inadequate sealing. Duct repair addresses the physical damage that causes efficiency loss and comfort problems. If your ductwork has gaps or damaged sections, cleaning won’t solve issues like high energy bills or uneven heating. Many homes need both services, but repair should come first because there’s no point cleaning ducts that are letting conditioned air escape into unconditioned spaces.
Most residential duct repair jobs take between 4-8 hours depending on how much damage we find and how accessible your ductwork is. Simple repairs like sealing a few disconnected joints might only take a couple hours, while extensive repairs involving multiple damaged sections could take a full day. We give you a time estimate after the initial inspection so you know what to expect. The work is usually completed in one visit, and your HVAC system is fully operational when we’re done.
Yes, we regularly work in crawl spaces, attics, and other tight areas where ductwork is typically installed. We have the proper equipment and experience to access these areas safely and complete repairs effectively. Crawl space and attic ductwork often has more damage because it’s exposed to temperature extremes and sometimes moisture. We also check the insulation around repaired sections because poorly insulated ductwork in unconditioned spaces loses a lot of energy even when properly sealed.
Properly executed duct repair typically reduces energy costs by 15-30% when significant leakage existed before the repair. The actual savings depend on how damaged your ductwork was and how much conditioned air was escaping into unconditioned spaces. We can measure the improvement using pressure testing before and after the repair work. Most customers notice the difference in their first utility bill after the repair, especially during peak heating and cooling seasons when HVAC systems work hardest.
Yes, we guarantee our duct repair work because we use professional-grade materials and proven techniques. If a repair fails due to our workmanship, we’ll return and fix it at no charge. We also provide documentation of the work completed including photos of repaired areas so you can see exactly what was done. Our goal is solving your comfort and efficiency problems permanently, not creating return visits. Quality materials and proper installation techniques mean repairs should last for many years without issues.
