Leaky or damaged ductwork in a Garden Valley attic or crawl space can waste a large share of conditioned air before it reaches a vent. Measurement replaces assumption on every visit.
Garden Valley homeowners often assume duct problems when comfort is off but equipment seems fine, and they're often right — disconnected sections and torn insulation are common in attics and crawl spaces. We inspect the full run, not just the sections near the equipment, since damage tends to hide exactly where it's hardest to see.
What every duct assessment includes.
We measure rather than estimate.
The inspection covers attics, crawl spaces, and behind walls.
What we use is meant to last, not just look sealed on day one.
We take a pressure reading before we start and another right after, so the improvement is a number, not a promise.
Evidence, not just our word for it.
Six issues that come up on most inspections.
Testing comes before sealing.
A crushed flex run or disconnected joint sends conditioned air straight into the attic.
We measure and correct pressure with damper adjustment or resizing where needed.
Especially in unconditioned spaces.
Rodent damage to ducts is more common than people realize.
An undersized trunk or poorly routed branch can bottleneck airflow.
What to expect.
Tell us what's off.
No separate visit needed.
Measurement before the quote.
We re-test after the repair before leaving to confirm airflow improved.

— T. Osayande, home baker
Insurance claim after a rodent infestation needed documentation of the actual duct damage. They provided exactly what the adjuster needed.
— R. Kowalczyk-Ibe, homeowner
