Leaky or damaged ductwork in a Stony Creek attic or crawl space can waste a large share of conditioned air before it reaches a vent. Measurement replaces assumption on every visit.
Stony Creek 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.
Leakage gets measured with a duct blaster test.
The inspection covers attics, crawl spaces, and behind walls.
Every joint gets mastic and a proper mechanical fastener, never the cloth tape that peels off in a season or two.
We take a pressure reading before we start and another right after, so the improvement is a number, not a promise.
We photograph what we find before repairing it, especially useful for insurance or landlord disputes.
The most common duct problems we find and correct.
Testing comes before sealing.
A crushed flex run or disconnected joint sends conditioned air straight into the attic.

Feedback from recent ductwork assessments and repairs.

Insurance claim after a rodent infestation needed documentation of the actual duct damage. They provided exactly what the adjuster needed.

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.

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.
It is more than cosmetic — chewed insulation and punctured duct walls both leak air and can pull contaminants into circulation.
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.
