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.
Centreville 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.
Not just visible sections.
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.
Instead of the intended room.
Where the system is working too hard.
Especially in unconditioned spaces.
Rodent damage to ducts is more common than people realize.
Regardless of equipment quality.
What to expect.
Tell us what's off.
A tech shows up with testing equipment ready to go.
Measurement before the quote.
Re-testing before we call it done.
