Duct Repair Irving
on Google.Expert Ductwork Repair For Irving Homes & Businesses
Damaged, disconnected, or leaking ductwork silently wastes energy and compromises comfort throughout your home or business. At The Go2Guys, we specialize in identifying and fixing duct problems that other companies might miss. Our professional repair services restore proper airflow, enhance efficiency, and improve comfort without the expense of complete replacement.
The Impact of Duct Problems
Many Irving homeowners and businesses don’t realize how significantly duct issues affect both comfort and operating costs:
Energy Waste
Leaky ductwork can waste 20-30% of your heating and cooling energy—that’s like intentionally keeping windows open while your system runs. Professional repairs can dramatically reduce this waste.
Comfort Inconsistencies
Damaged or disconnected ducts create hot and cold spots throughout your home or business, making some areas uncomfortable regardless of thermostat settings.
Indoor Air Quality Issues
Leaky return ducts can pull in contaminants from attics, crawlspaces, or between walls, circulating dust, insulation particles, and even mold spores throughout your living or working space.
System Strain
When your ductwork doesn’t deliver air properly, your HVAC equipment must run longer cycles to maintain desired temperatures, potentially shortening its lifespan and increasing repair needs.

Common Duct Problems We Solve
Our team addresses a wide range of ductwork issues for both homes and businesses throughout Irving
Disconnected Ducts
One of the most common issues we find is sections of ductwork that have completely separated, dumping conditioned air into attics, crawlspaces, or wall cavities instead of your living spaces.
Damaged Flexible Ducts
Flexible ducts are particularly vulnerable to damage from pests, maintenance work in attics, or improper installation. Tears, holes, and crushing restrict airflow and waste energy.
Leaking connections
Over time, the connections between duct sections can develop leaks as sealing materials deteriorate. These leaks might seem minor but collectively can cause significant energy waste.
Poorly Supported Ducts
Sagging ductwork creates inefficient airflow patterns and can eventually lead to disconnections. Proper support is essential for long-term performance.
Crushed or Restricted Ducts
Inadvertent crushing during attic storage or renovation work can severely restrict airflow through flexible ducts. Even partial crushing can reduce airflow by 50% or more.
Unsealed Register Boots
The connections where ducts meet your ceiling, floor, or wall registers often leak substantially. Properly sealing these “boots” can significantly improve efficiency.
Deteriorated Duct Tape
Despite its name, conventional duct tape is not suitable for long-term duct sealing and often fails within 1-2 years. When this happens, previously sealed connections begin leaking again.
Our Professional Duct Repair Process
We’ve developed a thorough approach to duct repairs that ensures we identify and fix all issues, not just the obvious ones
1. Comprehensive Inspection
We begin with a detailed evaluation of your entire duct system:
- Temperature differential readings throughout the system
- Visual inspection of all accessible ductwork
- Specialized cameras for examining internal conditions and inaccessible areas
- Pressure testing to quantify leakage rates
- Airflow measurements at registers
- Thermal imaging to identify areas of energy loss
2. Clear Documentation
Before making repairs, we document our findings and explain the issues in terms you can understand:
- Transparent pricing for all work
- Photos of problem areas
- Clear explanation of how each issue affects performance
- Prioritized list of recommended repairs
3. Professional Repairs
Our experienced technicians perform all necessary repairs using professional-grade materials and techniques:
- Addressing insulation deficiencies around ductwork
- Reconnecting separated duct sections with proper mechanical fasteners
- Sealing leaky connections with mastic (not tape) for permanent results
- Replacing damaged sections of flexible ductwork
- Properly supporting sagging ducts
- Repairing or replacing damaged register boots
4. Thorough Testing
After completing repairs, we verify the effectiveness of our work:
- Visual inspection of all repair areas
- Post-repair pressure testing to confirm leakage reduction
- Airflow measurements to verify improved delivery
- Temperature readings to confirm more consistent distribution
6. Follow-Up Documentation
We provide complete documentation of the work performed:
- Warranty information for repair work
- Before and after photos
- Test measurements showing improvement
- Summary report of all repairs made
- Recommendations for maintaining duct system integrity
Professional Materials Make the Difference
One key aspect of lasting duct repairs is using the right materials for each application. Unlike many companies that rely primarily on tape, we use professional-grade products specifically designed for permanent duct sealing
Mastic Sealant
This specialized duct sealant creates permanent, flexible bonds that won’t deteriorate over time like tape. We apply mastic to all connection points and seams for lasting air-tightness.
Metal Tape (Not Duct Tape)
For certain applications, we use foil-backed metal tape with long-lasting adhesives specifically formulated for HVAC applications. Standard “duct tape” is never used for our professional repairs.
Mechanical Fasteners
We secure connections with appropriate mechanical fasteners before sealing, ensuring physical stability in addition to air-tightness.
UL-Listed Materials
All materials we use meet Underwriters Laboratories safety standards for HVAC applications, ensuring code compliance and safety.
Proper Insulation
Where insulation has been damaged or is inadequate, we use the correct type and R-value of insulation material to prevent energy loss and condensation issues.

Signs Your Ductwork Needs Repair
Not sure if your ducts need attention? Watch for these telltale indicators
Uneven Temperatures
Some rooms consistently feel too hot or too cold compared to the rest of your home or business.
High Utility Bills
Your heating and cooling costs seem excessive compared to similar properties or have increased without corresponding rate hikes.
Weak Airflow
You notice significantly weaker air from some vents compared to others, suggesting blockages or disconnections.
Rattling or Whistling Sounds
You hear unusual noises from your ductwork when the system runs, potentially indicating loose connections or damaged sections.
Excessive Dust
Your home or business seems unusually dusty, especially near supply registers, suggesting leaky return ducts pulling in contaminants.
Visible Duct Damage
You can see sagging, crushed, or disconnected ductwork in accessible areas like attics, basements, or crawlspaces.

Repair VS Replace
Making Right Decision
In some cases, duct repair provides the most cost-effective solution, while in others, replacement makes more sense. We help you make this decision with honest, informed guidance:
When Repair is Ideal
- Issues are limited to specific sections rather than system-wide
- Ductwork is otherwise in good condition and properly sized
- Budget constraints make complete replacement impractical
- Quick resolution is needed for comfort or efficiency concerns
When Replacement Should Be Considered
- Multiple widespread issues affect most of the system
- Existing ductwork is significantly undersized for your equipment
- The current design creates inherent performance problems
- Major contamination or damage affects most of the system
We always present both options when appropriate, explaining the pros and cons of each approach for your specific situation.
