Duct Sealing in Ojus - Leakage Measured, Then Priced in Writing

Fast, Reliable Duct Sealing Across Ojus

Duct sealing in Ojus runs between $450 and $1,200 per system for most homes, depending on how many leaks we find and whether the chase access is tight. We know the homes here: 1950s and 1960s ranches off West Dixie Highway, newer rebuilds near Keystone Point, and a lot of ductwork hidden in flat-roof chases where nobody can see it failing. Our crews seal ducts by the book, document everything with camera footage, and leave a written price before we touch anything.

Why Hollis Air Duct Fort Lauderdale Is Ojus’s Preferred Duct Sealing Company

We are not the cheapest bid in Ojus, and we won’t pretend otherwise. We are the crew that shows up inside the quoted window, walks the property, and hands you a written price before the first tool comes off the truck. Our techs are background-checked and uniformed, and they work under The Garrison Code: arrive on time, price in writing, do the job the right way, leave the site clean. Roy Castellanos leads our team with a simple rule: if the work fails within a year, we return at no charge.

Ojus homeowners call us after another company left them guessing. Our Duct Sealing crews have handled everything from single-trunk ranch systems to three-zone luxury builds where hidden chases mean we need camera snakes just to find the runs. We answer the phone 24/7 with a live person. You’ll get a real answer, not a voicemail loop.

Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our Miami (South FL) office, and crews serve Ojus locally. That means the technician who seals your ducts knows the difference between a 1960s flat-roof chase near the Intracoastal and a new construction attic with accessible decking. That local knowledge changes how long the job takes and what it costs.

Duct Insulation in Ojus

Duct insulation in Ojus matters because uninsulated metal ducts in hot or humid chases sweat, and that moisture feeds mold and degrades the duct exterior over time. The job involves wrapping or replacing insulation around supply and return runs, sealing seams in the insulation jacket, and verifying the system holds temperature through long runs between the air handler and far registers. Homeowners in Ojus typically need this when they notice condensation dripping from a chase, when rooms at the end of a long run blow warm, or after a renovation exposes old fiberglass wrap that’s torn or water-stained.

Expect to pay $300 to $700 per system for duct insulation replacement in Ojus, depending on run length and how much old material needs removal. A three-system home with long trunk lines can push toward the top of that range or slightly beyond. We quote it in writing before work starts, and the number doesn’t move at the door.

When Insulation Is the Real Problem

Sometimes homeowners call us for sealing and discover insulation is the actual culprit. Sweating ducts in a humid Ojus chase create the same musty smell and uneven cooling as an air leak, but mastic won’t fix it. We identify this with a temperature probe before recommending any work.

What Insulation Replacement Covers

The job includes removing deteriorated wrap, checking the duct exterior for corrosion while it’s exposed, installing new R-6 or R-8 rated insulation, and sealing every seam in the jacket. You get before-and-after photos so you can see what was under the old wrap, even when you can’t climb into the chase yourself.

HVAC Duct Sealing in Ojus

HVAC duct sealing in Ojus means locating and sealing every leak across an entire system: joints, takeoffs, trunk lines, plenum connections, and chase penetrations. We do this with commercial-grade mastic and aluminum tape applied to code, not quick-fix foil tape. Homeowners in Ojus need this when energy bills climb without a change in usage, when rooms run warm despite a newer AC, or when humidity inside the house spikes even with the system running. On a three-system home, that means testing and sealing each system separately, because one sealed system does nothing for the other two.

Whole-system HVAC duct sealing in Ojus runs $450 to $1,200 per system. Seal-only work on a single ranch system with good access lands near $450 to $650. A three-zone luxury home with hidden chases and multiple pinhole leaks in trunk lines can hit $900 to $1,200 per system. We use HEPA-filtered negative pressure testing to verify airflow after the seal, so you get numbers showing what changed.

Sealing Hidden Chases

Most Ojus mid-century homes have duct runs routed through flat-roof or low-slope chases with no access panels. We use flexible camera snakes to map the runs, locate leaks, and apply mastic at the problem points without tearing out ceilings. That’s the difference between a sealed system and a guess.

Three-System Pricing Logic

Large Ojus homes often have separate systems for different zones. Per-system pricing matters because each system has its own trunk, its own takeoffs, and its own leak profile. We quote each system on its own merits, and you approve the full written price before we start any of it.

Trusted Brands We Service in Ojus

We work on duct systems tied to Honeywell zoning controls, Aprilaire filtration, and Abatement Technologies components, plus equipment from other major manufacturers. Our techs carry mastic, tape, insulation wrap, and common replacement parts on the truck, so most Ojus jobs finish in a single visit. If we find a specialized damper or plenum fitting that needs replacement, we can usually source it from local supply houses the same day. You’ll know the exact part and price before we order anything.

Common Duct Sealing Problems We See in Ojus Homes

• Dried and separated joints in original mid-century ductwork. The mastic and tape used 50 to 60 years ago break down from heat and humidity. Leaks at joints go unnoticed until energy bills climb or a room never cools, because the chases hide everything.
• Pinhole corrosion from salty coastal air near Biscayne Bay. Metal ducts exposed to that air develop small holes over years. Sealing only the joints on a three-system home leaves the trunk lines leaking, so we inspect the full metal surface, not just connections.
• Improper transitions after a renovation. Contractors sometimes leave old duct sections in place and connect new ones with mismatched transitions. The junction points leak, and only a camera inspection shows the gap before you pay for another round of sealing.
• Sweating ducts in flat-roof chases. Ojus’s subtropical humidity means uninsulated or poorly sealed ducts in low-slope chases condense. The moisture drips into ceilings, feeds mold, and corrodes the exterior. Sealing plus insulation replacement is often the only real fix.
