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.

We’re the Duct Sealing crew that serves Wilton Manors from our Miami office, and we know the local housing stock: the 1950s ranch blocks off Wilton Drive, the low-rise condo stacks along Northeast 26th Street, and the newer townhomes filling in teardown lots throughout the city.

Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Wilton Manors’s Preferred Duct Sealing Company
We’ve been working in Wilton Manors long enough to know that a ranch home near Hagen Park isn’t the same job as a condo unit in a 1960s stack near the Intracoastal. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and they arrive inside the quoted window because The Garrison Standard doesn’t allow excuses about South Florida traffic. Every repair we make is backed by our 365-Day Done Right Promise: if the seal fails, the duct pulls apart, or the musty smell returns within a year, we come back and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit.
Phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No voicemail loops, no callback queues, no waiting until Monday to schedule. When you call (361) 326-5060, you’re talking to someone who can book your Wilton Manors appointment and answer questions about shared chases, parking access, or whether your 1950s fiberglass duct board needs replacement before sealing.
HVAC Duct Sealing in Wilton Manors
HVAC Duct Sealing in Wilton Manors means closing the gaps, cracks, and disconnected joints in your forced-air system so cooled air reaches your rooms instead of your attic or crawl space. In this city, most homes run A/C ten or eleven months a year, and every leak forces your compressor to work harder, raising your FPL bill and wearing out equipment faster. A typical whole-home duct sealing job in Wilton Manors runs $550 – $850 for a single-family ranch, $350 – $550 for a condo unit with shorter duct runs, and $800 – $1,200 for larger homes or systems needing extensive mastic and mesh rebuild work.
When Sealing Becomes Replacement
Original 1950s fiberglass duct board in Wilton Manors attics doesn’t just leak; it delaminates. The fiberglass facing separates from the board core in year-round humidity, and sealing over that degradation traps moisture against the fibers. We inspect with a camera first. If the board is shedding fibers or showing mold, we quote replacement of those sections with Guardsman mastic and mesh before we seal the joints.
Shared Systems, Shared Responsibilities
Many Wilton Manors condos built in the 1960s and 1970s have duct chases or dryer-vent stacks that serve multiple units. Sealing your section may require coordinating access with neighbors or the building association. We handle that scheduling as part of the job, and we price it in writing before we start.
Duct Repair in Wilton Manors
Duct Repair in Wilton Manors addresses the physical damage that sealing alone won’t fix: crushed flex duct in tight attics, rusted metal connections at the air handler, and degraded fiberglass board that has lost its structural integrity. Repair costs in Wilton Manors typically run $300 – $600 for localized fixes like a section of flex duct or a rusted collar, and $700 – $1,500 for more extensive rebuilds of original duct board in a low-slung ranch attic. We always inspect with a camera before quoting, so you know whether you’re looking at sealing, repair, or both.
Condensation and Rust
Constant A/C operation in Wilton Manors means cold air moving through warm attic spaces. That temperature differential creates condensation on metal duct surfaces, especially at joints and collars. Over years, the metal rusts through. We replace rusted sections with galvanized fittings sealed with mastic rated for wet conditions.
Attic Access Limitations
Many Wilton Manors ranches have attic accesses barely 18 inches wide. Our Rotobrush rotary systems and Nikro negative-air machines break down for tight spaces, and our technicians are trained to work in confined areas without damaging your ceiling or insulation.
Trusted Brands We Service in Wilton Manors
We stock parts and materials from Abatement Technologies, Guardsman, and Aprilaire for Wilton Manors jobs, which means faster turnaround and no waiting on shipped materials. Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary brush systems for mechanical agitation inside ductwork and Nikro negative-air machines that maintain containment during repair work. For filtration upgrades after sealing, we carry Aprilaire media cleaners and Guardsman UV systems. These aren’t hardware-store tools; they’re the same units commercial crews use in hospitals and schools, and we explain what each one does for your specific Wilton Manors system before we start.
Common Duct Sealing Problems We See in Wilton Manors Homes
- Delaminating fiberglass duct board in 1950s ranches. The original board in low-slung Wilton Manors attics sheds fiberglass facing after decades of humidity exposure. Sealing over it without replacing degraded sections traps moisture and mold behind the seal, making the air quality worse, not better.
- Shared vertical dryer-vent stacks in 1960s – 70s condos. A seal on your in-unit section won’t stop lint accumulation in the common stack above you, which is a fire risk that requires building-wide access and cleaning, not just your unit’s connection point.
- Dense canopy debris clogging outdoor intakes. The oak and palm canopy over Wilton Drive and surrounding neighborhoods sends a constant rain of organic material into fresh-air intakes and A/C condensers. Sealing the duct system without addressing the intake means the blower motor pulls that debris through every register.
- Disconnected flex duct in newer townhome infill. Replacement townhomes on former ranch lots often have duct chases running through shared walls with neighbors. Vibration from adjacent units and tight bends in the flex duct create separations that standard sealing can’t reach without access agreements.

FAQs About Duct Sealing in Wilton Manors
We can seal your in-unit connection and the accessible portion of your branch, but the common vertical stack above your unit requires building-wide access and cleaning to eliminate the fire risk from accumulated lint. We coordinate with your building management for that work, and we price both phases in writing before starting. Call (361) 326-5060 to schedule an inspection.
Yes. Our Rotobrush and Nikro equipment breaks down for tight accesses, and our technicians are trained to work in the low-slung attics common to Wilton Manors ranches. We set up negative pressure at the air handler and run camera inspection through the supply and return ducts to assess the full system without requiring full attic traversal. Call (361) 326-5060 to discuss your specific access.
The musty smell usually means moisture is entering through leaks in the duct system, or the original fiberglass duct board has delaminated and is harboring mold behind the facing. Cleaning removes surface debris but doesn’t seal the leaks or replace degraded board. We inspect with a camera to locate the source, then seal or replace as needed. Call (361) 326-5060 for a diagnosis.
We need curb space for a standard service van, not a large truck. In Wilton Manors’s dense neighborhoods with restricted street parking, we coordinate with you in advance to identify legal parking near your building. For condos with shared garages, we arrange temporary access through building management when needed. Call (361) 326-5060 to confirm logistics for your address.
We seal the accessible portions of your system from inside your unit, using camera inspection to verify seal integrity at the shared wall boundary. If the leak extends into the common chase, we coordinate with your HOA or neighboring unit for access, and we handle that scheduling as part of the job. Everything is priced in writing before work begins. Call (361) 326-5060 to schedule.
