R&E Home Solutions handles duct repair and duct replacement for homes and businesses across Charleston, SC. We pressure-test your system, find the leaks and disconnected runs that are wasting your cooling, and either seal them or replace the sections that are past saving. Every job starts with an inspection and a written estimate.
Same-day service available for emergencies
Most Charleston homes lose a meaningful share of their conditioned air before it ever reaches a room. It escapes through split seams in the attic, crushed flex duct in a crawlspace, or connections that worked loose years ago. You feel it as a bedroom that never cools, and you pay for it every month on the power bill.
Our duct repair service in Charleston starts with a diagnostic rather than a guess. We run a pressure test to measure how much air the system is losing, then send a camera through the runs to see exactly where it’s going. From there we tell you what needs sealing, what needs replacing, and what’s fine to leave alone.
Some jobs are a two-hour fix. Others need entire runs pulled and rebuilt. We’ll tell you which one you’re looking at before we start, not halfway through.

Before every service, we conduct a thorough visual inspection to identify, assess, and strategize the needed repair & replacement service.
This routine diagnostic test helps our experts measure the air pressure and identify leaking areas throughout the duct.
Since most ductwork is long and narrow, camera infrared duct inspections are necessary to help our technicians thoroughly assess the entire system and pinpoint the duct’s pain points.
Our trained experts begin the repair work by restoring duct components.
We conduct replacements on completely irreparable components. Most replacements will last customers years of service.
Before finishing the service, we administer a final check. This is when we ensure that all parts function properly with the customer’s approval.
Our HVAC ducts constantly work to provide our homes or offices with the right air circulation and temperature. Because of this, HVAC duct damage is inevitable.
These common signs suggest your air ducts may need repair, part replacements, or cleaning. Regardless of what it is, R&E Home Solutions is here to help you.
This is the question almost every customer asks, so here’s the honest answer.
| Consideration | Duct Repair | Duct Replacement |
|---|---|---|
| Best when | Ductwork is structurally sound with isolated leaks or damage | System is 20+ years old, widely deteriorated, or badly undersized |
| Typical work | Sealing joints, resecuring connections, patching sections, replacing damaged insulation, straightening crushed runs | Removing old ductwork and installing new runs, plenums, and boots |
| Timeline | A few hours to one day | Two to five days, depending on home size |
| Cost range | Lower — priced by the extent of the damage | Higher — priced by linear footage and system layout |
| We recommend it when | Damage is confined to specific runs and the rest tests tight | Repairs would cost a large share of replacement, or the ducts have mold, saturation, or pest contamination |
We don’t push replacement when a repair will hold. If your ducts test tight after sealing, that’s the job. If they don’t, we’ll show you the camera footage and the pressure numbers so you can see why.
Leaks within the air ducts are the most common damages that need immediate repair or replacement.

Duct repair and replacement service covers many services, from minor to major work. With its vagueness, hundreds of homeowners are left with several questions. We’re here to answer some of the most common questions about it.
It depends. The price range of repair and replacement services will depend on the severity of the damage to the existing air ducts.
Price ranges can be anywhere from $200 to $6,000.
Regardless of the price, regular duct maintenance can easily help reduce the chances of an expensive one-time replacement service.
We highly encourage regular duct maintenance to avoid costly repair and/or replacement overhauling. Regular checks allow you to be on top of things and make the necessary repairs to keep your air ducts in shape.

The HVAC system’s lifespan typically lasts anywhere between 15 and 25 years. Although, its longevity will also depend on a variety of key factors such as proper installation, duct material, usage, and maintenance.
The entire process may take anywhere between a couple of hours to days, depending on the amount of work needed.
Of course, the repair process will finish faster, possibly within a couple of hours to a day or two. Meanwhile, depending on the severity, duct replacement may take a day to five days or maybe even a week. Lastly, repair and replacement services may take much longer.
For this reason, we always encourage customers to get regular maintenance to avoid extreme damage and costly expenses.
