Duct sealing and repair is the process of finding and fixing leaks, gaps, or damage in your home’s air ducts to improve airflow and energy efficiency. Leaky ducts can make some rooms too hot or too cold, drive up energy bills, and let in dust or allergens. For homeowners in Freehold, Marlboro, and Manalapan, sealing ducts helps your HVAC system work better — and keeps every room comfortable.
It’s frustrating when your heat or AC is running, but some rooms still feel uncomfortable. Often, the problem isn’t the system — it’s the ductwork. Over time, air ducts can pull apart, sag, or develop small leaks that let conditioned air escape into attics, basements, or crawlspaces.
At Novus Mechanical, we help families in Freehold, Marlboro, and Manalapan find and fix those hidden issues. Our duct sealing and repair service makes sure the air your system works so hard to create actually gets to the rooms you live in — not lost along the way.

We hear this all the time from NJ homeowners:
“Our bedrooms are freezing, but the living room is hot.”
“I thought we needed a new system… but this one’s only a few years old.”
“My energy bills are going up, and I don’t know why.”
“Some vents barely blow any air at all.”
“We’ve had this problem for years, and no one’s explained it clearly.”
“Other contractors said it was fine — but something still feels off.”
“We booked someone before… and they never showed.”
That’s exactly why we do things differently. At Novus, we believe in comfort that makes sense — and in treating people the way we’d want to be treated. Nova, our glowing little spirit of comfort, reminds us every day: take the time, explain it clearly, and always show up.
One Marlboro homeowner called us after her upstairs bedrooms were always chilly in winter — even with the heat running nonstop. She was worried she’d need a new system. We did a duct inspection and found multiple leaks in the attic ducts. After sealing and securing everything, the next morning she texted: “We actually woke up warm. First time in years. Thank you.”
Ducts can sag, split, or come loose over time. Even small leaks can cause big problems — wasting air, money, and comfort.
If the ducts are damaged but still intact, sealing is usually enough. If they’re crushed, rusted, or full of mold, we’ll talk about replacement options — only if needed.
You can try with foil tape in visible spots, but full testing and professional-grade sealing ensures long-lasting results and safe airflow.
It depends on the size of your home and the state of the ductwork, but most jobs in our area range from $500–$1,500. We’ll always give you a clear, honest quote first.
Not typically for duct repairs, but if it’s part of a larger heating or cooling issue, we’ll do our best to come quickly — especially during weather extremes.
