Whole-system duct and dryer vent check with before-and-after photos - you see exactly what came out of your vents
That "$99 whole-house special" is a bait ad - the real number appears once they are in your hallway, or the "clean" is a shop-vac at the register. We photograph the inside of your ducts before and after instead.
Fast, Reliable Duct Repair & Sealing Across Dunwoody
Most Dunwoody homes need more than a dryer vent cleaning. They need the failing ductwork found, photographed, and fixed. Our crews are dispatched from the Atlanta office and serve Dunwoody directly - call (470) 326-1926 for a written estimate before any work starts.
We’ve been in Dunwoody attics since 2013. We know the 1970s ranch on Peeler Road, the split-level off Tilly Mill, the two-story colonial in Dunwoody Club Forest with flex duct stapled through 140°F July heat. The problems here are specific to this city’s housing stock and climate, and the fixes need to match.

Our Duct Repair & Sealing Services in Dunwoody

Duct Sealing
Leaky ducts steal 20-30% of conditioned air in a typical Dunwoody home. We seal every joint, boot, and plenum connection with mastic sealant - not tape, which fails in Georgia’s humidity cycles. In Dunwoody’s original fiberglass duct board systems, the seams between sections have often degraded to the point where the blower is pressurizing the attic instead of the bedrooms. We photograph the leakage, seal it, and verify with static pressure readings.

Flex Duct Repair
This is the repair we perform most often in Dunwoody. In Georgetown and Dunwoody Club Forest, long flex runs stapled through unconditioned attics delaminate when attic temperatures hit 140°F+ in July. The inner liner separates from the insulation, sags into partial collapse, and chokes airflow to back bedrooms. We pull the failed run under negative pressure, rebuild with insulated flex on proper saddles, and mastic-seal every connection. In Dunwoody Club Forest we opened up a two-story colonial whose second-floor flex run had been stapled through a 140°F+ July attic, and our camera inspection found the inner liner completely delaminated, sagging into a partial collapse that was choking airflow to the back bedrooms. We pulled the collapsed run under negative pressure, rebuilt it with insulated flex on proper saddles, and mastic-sealed every boot and plenum joint back to the air handler - the return static dropped immediately and the upstairs registers finally moved real air again.

Metal Duct Repair
Some Dunwoody homes, particularly earlier 1970s builds near the Dunwoody Village Parkway corridor, have galvanized metal trunk lines with rusted seams or disconnected take-offs. We repair or replace sections, seal with mastic, and insulate where the metal runs through unconditioned space. Metal duct doesn’t delaminate like flex, but it corrodes. We photograph the corrosion and show you exactly where the air is escaping.

Duct Insulation
Uninsulated or degraded duct insulation in Dunwoody attics creates condensation, mold risk, and thermal loss. We replace insulation on repaired runs using materials rated for Georgia’s humidity and temperature swings. This matters especially in Dunwoody’s older homes, where the original insulation has compressed or been disturbed by decades of service access.

Mastic Sealant Application
Mastic is the only sealant we use on Dunwoody jobs. It remains flexible through decades of thermal cycling, unlike tape which dries and separates. We brush-apply mastic to every joint, boot, and plenum connection, then photograph the sealed assembly before closing access. This is standard on every sealing job, not an upgrade.

Common Duct Repair & Sealing Problems We See in Dunwoody Homes

- Fiberglass duct board shedding fibers into living spaces. The 1970s-1980s fiberglass duct board systems still in most Dunwoody homes were designed with a roughly 20-year lifespan - meaning virtually every original run here is now 40-50 years old and shedding fibers into the living space, unlike the tight-flex, 2000s-era systems in the GA-400 corridor suburbs north of here. Our camera inspections regularly show degraded liner material accumulating at registers.
- Flex duct collapse in unconditioned attics. Long flex runs stapled through unconditioned attic space in Georgetown and Dunwoody Club Forest delaminate and partially collapse when attic temps hit 140°F+ in July. The restriction shows up as weak airflow to second-floor rooms and higher utility bills.
- Pollen and debris compaction against aging duct liner. Decades of oak, pine, and sweet gum pollen - metro Atlanta records some of the highest counts in the U.S. - compact against aging duct liner and restrict airflow at the registers. Six-plus months of continuous AC operation means these deposits build far faster than in drier climates.
- Disconnected or separated joints at plenum connections. Thermal cycling and vibration loosen connections between the air handler plenum and trunk lines, especially in systems that have never been professionally inspected. We find this in Dunwoody homes where the original installer used tape instead of mastic.
Pricing for Duct Repair & Sealing in Dunwoody, GA
A typical duct sealing job in Dunwoody runs $450-$850 for a single system, depending on access and the linear footage of ductwork. Flex duct repair, including replacement of a collapsed run with insulated flex on proper supports, typically ranges $280-$520 per run. Metal duct repair starts around $340 for localized seam work and can reach $680+ for section replacement with insulation. Full duct insulation replacement on a repaired system runs $380-$720.
What moves the price: attic accessibility, the number of failed runs, whether the plenum itself needs resealing, and whether we find additional damage during the initial camera inspection. We deliver a written price before any work starts - Haven Standard Clause 1. No per-vent pricing. No coupon bait.

FAQs - Duct Repair & Sealing in Dunwoody

The 1970s-1980s fiberglass duct board systems still in most Dunwoody homes were designed with a roughly 20-year lifespan, meaning virtually every original run is now 40-50 years old. Cleaning deteriorated duct board can accelerate fiber shedding and doesn’t address collapsed flex runs or separated joints. The real fix is often sealing and replacing failed runs, not a one-time cleaning. Call (470) 326-1926 for a camera inspection and written estimate.
Attic temperatures in Dunwoody regularly exceed 140°F in July, and flex duct stapled through unconditioned attic space - common in Georgetown and Dunwoody Club Forest - experiences thermal degradation of its inner liner. Over years, the liner delaminates from the insulation layer, sags under airflow pressure, and partially collapses. Proper installation on saddles with adequate support spacing prevents this; original installations often lacked both. Call (470) 326-1926 for an inspection.
Yes. Metro Atlanta consistently records among the highest pollen counts in the United States, and Dunwoody’s mature oak, pine, and sweet gum canopy amplifies local airborne loads. Six-plus months of continuous AC operation pulls that pollen directly into return systems, where it compacts against aging duct liner and restricts airflow. Homes with original 1970s-1980s ductwork see this accumulation far worse than newer systems with smoother interior surfaces. Call (470) 326-1926 for a camera inspection.
Every job starts with a camera inspection of every accessible run, photographed and delivered to you. We then provide a written scope and price before any work begins. Repairs typically include pulling failed flex runs, rebuilding with insulated flex on proper supports, mastic-sealing every joint and boot connection, and verifying with static pressure readings. You receive a Documented Photo Record of every run, before and after, as a standard deliverable. Call (470) 326-1926 to schedule.
