Fix Damaged Ducts and Get Air Where It Belongs
Your furnace and AC can only keep you comfortable if the air reaches your rooms. A crushed, torn or disconnected duct can send that air into your attic or crawlspace instead. Our team repairs and replaces damaged ductwork for homes in Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Caldwell and Eagle.
Owyhee began as Owyhee Sheet Metal back in 1946, so ductwork has been part of what we do from day one. You get upfront pricing with no hidden fees. We explain the problem and the cost before any work begins.

Common Duct Problems We Fix
Disconnected Ducts
Ducts can pull apart at the joints over time. A fully disconnected duct can dump all of a room’s air into the attic or crawlspace. That room may get almost no heat or cooling.
Crushed or Kinked Flex Duct
Flexible ducts can get stepped on, squeezed by storage or bent too sharply. A crushed duct chokes airflow to the rooms it serves.
Torn or Damaged Ducts
Rodents, pets, moisture and work in the attic or crawlspace can tear ducts. Old flex duct can also crack and fall apart with age.
Sagging Ducts
Ducts that sag between supports can restrict airflow and collect moisture. We add proper supports and straighten the run.
Damaged Insulation
Ducts in cold spaces need insulation. If it is torn or missing, warm air cools off before it reaches your rooms. Ducts can also sweat in summer.
Poorly Sized or Designed Ductwork
Some ducts were never sized right for the home. Others were changed during a remodel or a new furnace install. We can redesign problem runs so each room gets the air it needs.
Signs You Need Duct Repair
- One or more rooms that never get warm or cool
- Weak or no airflow from certain vents
- Whistling, rattling or banging sounds in the ducts
- Higher energy bills with no change in use
- Extra dust in the home
- Visible damage to ducts in the attic, crawlspace or basement
