Ductwork Repair FAQ
Everything Charlotte homeowners need to know about ductwork repair
How much does ductwork repair cost in Charlotte?
Ductwork repairs typically cost $300-$1,500 depending on extent. Simple sealing runs $300-$600, damaged section replacement costs $400-$1,000, extensive repairs $1,000-$2,500. We provide free inspections and estimates. Many repairs pay for themselves in energy savings within 2-3 years.
How do I know if my ducts need repair?
Signs include: high energy bills, rooms that won't heat/cool, excessive dust, visible gaps or disconnected ducts, whistling sounds, or rooms with poor airflow. Charlotte homes with ductwork in attics/crawlspaces often have issues. We offer free ductwork inspections.
Will sealing my ducts really lower my energy bills?
Absolutely! Typical Charlotte homes lose 20-40% of conditioned air through duct leaks. Sealing can reduce bills by $200-$500 annually. In attics that reach 130°F+ in summer, leaky ducts waste massive energy. Most repairs pay for themselves in 2-4 years.
Should I use duct tape or professional mastic sealant?
Never use duct tape on ducts (ironically)! It degrades in attic heat. We use professional mastic sealant that lasts 20+ years, stays flexible, and withstands Charlotte's temperature extremes (0°F to 140°F in attics). This is why professional sealing is worth it.
Can you repair ductwork in my attic or crawlspace?
Yes! Our technicians are equipped to work in Charlotte attics and crawlspaces safely. We handle asbestos concerns, mold issues, pest problems, and extreme temperatures. Most ductwork is in these spaces—we access and repair it properly.
How long does ductwork repair take?
Simple sealing takes 2-4 hours. Replacing damaged sections may take 4-8 hours. Extensive repairs can take 1-2 days. We work efficiently but don't rush—proper sealing and connection is critical for performance and longevity.
Do you need to cut holes in my walls for ductwork repair?
Usually no. Most Charlotte homes have ductwork in attics or crawlspaces that we access from there. Occasionally we need small access panels for repairs, but we avoid cutting walls whenever possible and patch professionally when necessary.
Can you repair flex duct or rigid metal ductwork?
Both! Flex duct is common in Charlotte attics (easier to install but tears more easily). We repair tears, reseal connections, and replace damaged sections. Metal ductwork lasts longer but joints can separate—we reseal with proper mastic.
Will ductwork repair improve my indoor air quality?
Yes! Leaky ducts pull in attic/crawlspace air containing dust, insulation fibers, mold spores, and pest allergens. Proper sealing prevents contamination. Consider our indoor air quality solutions too.
Do you offer duct cleaning with repairs?
Yes! If your ducts need cleaning (visible mold, pest infestation, excessive dust), we offer that service. Often repair + cleaning together makes sense. Clean, sealed ducts maximize HVAC efficiency and air quality.
Can ductwork repair fix hot/cold rooms?
Often yes! Uneven temperatures are usually caused by disconnected ducts, massive leaks, or improper damper settings. We diagnose the root cause and fix it. Some cases need ductwork redesign, but most are simple repairs.
How often should ductwork be inspected in Charlotte?
Every 5-7 years, or sooner if you notice issues (high bills, poor comfort). Charlotte's temperature extremes stress ductwork. Attic temperatures reaching 130°F+ cause flex duct to degrade and connections to separate over time.
Do you provide warranties on ductwork repairs?
Yes! We warranty all repair work for 1 year labor. Materials (mastic, connections, etc.) are warrantied by manufacturers. Quality repairs last 15-20+ years. Check our customer reviews to see why Charlotte trusts us.
Can you repair commercial ductwork too?
Absolutely! We service commercial ductwork in Charlotte businesses, offices, and light industrial buildings. Commercial systems have different requirements and we have the experience, tools, and licensing to handle them properly.
