Even a good furnace or AC can't overcome ductwork losing air. We test static pressure and leakage directly rather than guessing based on appearance on every visit.
Stinson Beach 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.
You see proof the fix landed, not just our word for it.
We photograph what we find before repairing it, especially useful for insurance or landlord disputes.
The most common duct problems we find and correct.
We measure leakage, then seal every joint with mastic rather than tape.
A crushed flex run or disconnected joint sends conditioned air straight into the attic.
Where the system is working too hard.
Damaged insulation leads to condensation and wasted energy.
Wasting air and introducing contamination.
An undersized trunk or poorly routed branch can bottleneck airflow.
Four steps to airflow that actually reaches every room.
Describe the comfort issue and we schedule an assessment.
No separate visit needed.
We measure first and explain findings, then quote a flat-rate repair.
Re-testing before we call it done.
Reviews from completed duct projects.
Landlord dispute over whether pre-existing duct damage caused a tenant's high bills. The photo documentation they provided settled the disagreement fairly for both sides.
— A. Werneke, property manager
Home theater room in the basement never got enough airflow to stay comfortable during movie nights with a full house. Found and fixed a disconnected branch line.
— C. Aldeguer, homeowner
Sourdough baking hobby means a very specific kitchen temperature matters more than most people would guess. The duct sealing evened things out enough to matter.
— 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
Home art gallery in a converted garage needed even airflow to protect artwork from humidity swings near the exterior wall. Duct rerouting solved a problem two other companies just shrugged at.
— N. Falowo, gallery owner
What people ask before we test their ductwork.
Uneven rooms, high bills, or dust near vents are common signs.
That gray cloth tape everyone associates with ducts becomes brittle and peels within a season or two.
Significant leakage in attic or crawl space runs can waste a meaningful share.
Rodent damage affects performance, not just appearance.
The fix gets done the same day we find the problem, in most cases.
Longer for extensive resizing.
Documentation is standard, not a special request.
We will flag anything unusual before starting.
Standard duct work has no bearing on your unit's warranty.
