Before & after on every job
Typical residential ductwork loses a meaningful share of its conditioned air through joint leaks, failed tape, and gaps at the boots and plenum. In a house with ductwork in an unconditioned attic, that's air you paid to cool being delivered to a space that's 130°F in July.
Restoration addresses it without tearing the system out. We clean first, then seal every accessible joint and connection with mastic, repair damaged insulation and, where the interior liner is deteriorating but the duct is structurally sound, apply an encapsulating coating that locks the surface down.
It's a fraction of the cost of replacement and, on the right system, it delivers most of the benefit.
Duct sealing closes the leaks. Joints, seams, register boots, the plenum and trunk connections are where conditioned air escapes. Sealing them properly means mastic, not cloth duct tape.
Duct restoration is sealing plus everything the system needs to perform like it should: a full cleaning first, disconnected runs reattached, sagging runs re-strapped, damaged insulation repaired and, where the liner is shedding but the duct is sound, an encapsulating coating.
Some homes only need sealing; others need the full restoration. When ductwork is crushed, torn or badly degraded, duct repair or replacement is the honest answer. The inspection tells us which one you have, and we show you the photos.
Drag the handle to compare
This is the same duct, photographed from the same spot before and after. The bracket on the left wall and the taped joint at the bottom are your reference points.
Before: surface rust across the liner, staining down the back wall, and debris collecting along the seams. This system was still moving air — the homeowner had no idea.
After: cleaned, every accessible seam sealed with mastic, and the interior surface encapsulated so it stops shedding into the airstream.
Replacement would have meant tearing the run out and rebuilding it. Restoration got the same result for a fraction of the cost and disruption — because the duct was structurally sound underneath.
According to ENERGY STAR, about 20 to 30 percent of the air moving through the duct system in a typical house is lost to leaks, holes and poorly connected ducts. ENERGY STAR also says leaky ducts can reduce heating and cooling efficiency by as much as 20 percent. Every house is different. Here’s where you feel it:
A lot of Metro Atlanta ductwork runs through unconditioned space: hot attics in newer subdivisions, damp crawlspaces under older homes. When ducts leak there, the air goes outside your living space completely.
The two spaces wear ducts out in different ways. Attics are about heat. Year after year of summer heat dries out tape and adhesives until the joints let go, and the insulation sleeves break down. Crawlspaces are about moisture. Insulation holds the damp, metal rusts, and a leaky return pulls that air straight into the house. We check whichever one your system runs through.
We go through the whole system and photograph every problem area. If restoration isn’t the right call, we tell you before you spend anything.
You don’t seal a dirty duct. The system is cleaned under negative pressure first so we aren’t locking debris in.
Disconnected runs reattached, sagging runs re-strapped and supported, register boots secured to the drywall.
Mastic at joints, seams, boots, the plenum and trunk lines — the places where the air is actually escaping. Never cloth duct tape.
Torn or missing insulation sleeves repaired or re-wrapped so bare duct isn’t sweating in a humid attic or crawlspace.
We check airflow at the registers and take before-and-after readings when the job calls for it, then take after photos from the same spots as the before photos and walk you through the results.
The duct holds shape; the connections have failed.
Leakage into unconditioned space is expensive and invisible.
One or two rooms always run hotter or colder than the rest of the house.
The AC runs, but the house never feels properly dry.
Bare duct sweats in humid weather and loses heat to the attic.

“I had my ducts cleaned for the first time by LServices. It was an excellent experience watching the guys clean all 33 ducts, taking every vent apart to clean the ducts. I was impressed with the services and would highly recommend this company.”

Yes. Sealing over dust and debris locks it in, so cleaning always comes first and is part of every restoration job.
It can. ENERGY STAR says duct sealing can often pay for itself in energy savings. How much you save depends on how leaky your system is and where the ducts run, so we won’t promise you a number.
We seal everything we can reach: attic, crawlspace, basement and the register boots. Some sections inside finished walls can’t be reached by hand, and we’ll tell you up front which ones.
Often. Leaky returns pull dust from attics and wall cavities into the airstream, and sealing stops that. It won’t replace regular filter changes.
Restoration works when the duct is structurally sound and the connections have failed. When runs are crushed, torn, badly degraded or contaminated, repair or replacement is the better call. The inspection photos make that clear.
For many homes with ducts in a hot attic or damp crawlspace, it’s one of the more practical upgrades. Our full guide: Is Duct Sealing Worth It? What Atlanta Homeowners Should Know.
We remove the dust, dander and debris circulating through your home every time the HVAC runs — and we show you the photos to prove it.
A clogged dryer vent is the most common house fire risk homeowners never think about. We clear the full line — not just the first three feet.
Creosote buildup is what turns a fireplace into a chimney fire. We remove it and inspect the flue while we’re in there.
Paying to clean a duct that’s leaking a third of its air into your attic is money spent on the wrong problem.
