Duct & HVAC Services in Bassendean

Riverside Ground and Character Housing

Bassendean sits on a bend of the Swan River in Perth’s inner north-east, an older suburb of character cottages, interwar bungalows and post-war brick homes on established streets. It is low, close to the water, and shaded by mature trees — a pleasant combination to live with and a slightly demanding one for anything mechanical hidden under the floor or above the ceiling.

Proximity to the river is the thread running through the work here. Ground moisture sits higher on these blocks than it does on the sandy plains further inland, and older homes with raised timber floors have subfloor voids that stay damp long after the surface has dried. Where ducting was retrofitted into that void — which is common in character homes with no roof space to spare — it sits in humid air with unsealed earth beneath it. Ducting in that environment does not just collect dust; it collects the conditions in which mould establishes, and the recurring musty smell every winter that owners blame on the house is very often coming out of the vents.

FreshDuct diagnoses that properly rather than treating the symptom. We camera the subfloor and roof runs, identify where moisture is actually entering the system, clean ducts, returns and vents thoroughly, treat mould where we find it and address the source rather than just the growth, and check drain trays and coils on the indoor units. Photographs before and after, including the parts of the house under your floor.
