Sheet metal components are used in many residential and commercial applications, from rooftop chimney caps to kitchen range hoods. However, the exact components used in these installations are rarely available at home improvement or hardware stores. Every project has specific dimensions and requirements, so a custom solution is often necessary.
In Cambria and SLO County, contractors and homeowners alike turn to Lafferty Heating for our custom sheet metal services. We have a 40+ year legacy in the community and are known for our craftsmanship, decades of field experience, and proficiency with fabricating sheet metal components for all kinds of unique use cases.

In-House Sheet Metal Fabrication
Most installers don’t have in-house equipment to shape, bend, and cut their own sheet metal properly. As a result, they often show up to job sites with components that do not fit 100% correctly. Without the ability to quickly source the right-sized fittings, they’ll cut corners and leave their customers with a subpar installation.
At Lafferty Heating, we have an in-house 5′ by 10′ flatbed laser cutter right at our Cambria location. If we ever need a quick sheet metal alteration or custom piece to finish a job, it’s only a short drive away.
We Do The Following:
- Start with a planned digital design. We’re never figuring things out as we go.
- Can cut precise, complex shapes for any unique application.
- Can produce custom pieces with fast turnaround times. We don’t have to wait for another company to finish a product since we can do it ourselves.
Custom Ductwork Services for HVAC
We are the only company in Cambria that offers HVAC and sheet metal services. This means we can design, fabricate, install, and repair ductwork for any type of furnace, central air conditioning system, or heat pump.
Most HVAC systems’ performance comes down to the ductwork. While your heating and cooling equipment leaves the manufacturer already lab-tested, the quality of ductwork depends entirely on the contractor’s abilities. Lafferty Heating’s expertise with ductwork ensures your HVAC system delivers as much energy-efficient heating and cooling as possible. We offer:
In-Depth Knowledge
We know airflow. We know when, where, and how to install every duct fitting there is. Where other contractors run flex ductwork everywhere because it’s faster and easier, we use rigid ductwork where necessary to ensure proper airflow throughout your home and a better performing system.
Custom Installations
No matter how unique or oddly laid out your home is, our sheet metal equipment and experience allow us to engineer a solution for you.
Duct Sealing Services
Our sheet metal experts can repair improperly installed ductwork or seal old accessible ductwork that has started leaking.
