Whole-system duct and dryer vent check with before-and-after photos - you see exactly what came out of your vents
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.

AfterAir Duct Cleaning Company in Edgewood, WA
Air duct cleaning in Edgewood, WA typically costs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system and is scheduled by appointment with a written price confirmed before work begins. Homes here face a specific double challenge: chemical and particulate residue drifting from Aberdeen Proving Ground operations, combined with persistent moisture from Bush River’s tidal air that drives mold and mildew inside ductwork. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Garrison Partners family, and our crews handle Edgewood’s older military-era housing stock and humid mid-Atlantic conditions with equipment built for commercial jobs. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate.
Why Edgewood Homes Are Different
Edgewood sits in a pocket of Harford County where the terrain itself shapes what we find in ducts. The town lies downwind of Aberdeen Proving Ground, and depending on wind patterns, particulate matter from testing and training operations settles into outdoor HVAC intakes and attic venting. That residue layer is real. We see it on return grilles and inside trunk lines, especially in homes built during the 1940s – 60s military housing era.
Those post-WWII duplexes and small ranches dominate much of Edgewood’s core. Many still run original galvanized steel duct or early flex duct that’s corroded, poorly sealed, or compromised by decades of rodent traffic. Backing onto wooded edges near APG, we regularly pull acorns, nesting material, and droppings from runs where mice and squirrels have chewed entry points. The humidity doesn’t help. Bush River and Chesapeake Bay tributaries keep relative humidity elevated year-round, and damp winters followed by hot, sticky summers create the exact conditions for microbial growth on duct interiors.
Homeowners here aren’t dealing with generic dust buildup. They’re managing a convergence of military-area particulates, aging infrastructure, and moisture-driven contamination that demands equipment capable of both aggressive mechanical cleaning and controlled negative-air containment.
Our Main Edgewood Services
Edgewood homeowners call us most often for three services, each with its own local conditions and approach.
Air Duct Cleaning in Edgewood
We clean supply and return ductwork using a Rotobrush rotary brush system paired with Nikro negative-air machines that lock debris inside containment rather than letting it cycle through your living space. In Edgewood, this matters more than in drier climates because the brush action dislodges mold-prone buildup that humidity has cemented to duct walls. We inspect with a camera before and after so you see what came out. Every job gets a written price before we start and is covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Air Duct Cleaning in Edgewood is scheduled by appointment, not rushed.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Edgewood
Dryer vent blockages in Edgewood often include lint packed with the same fine particulate residue that coats outdoor surfaces near Aberdeen Proving Ground, creating denser, more stubborn clogs. We run a rotary brush through the full vent run to the exterior termination and measure airflow before and after. A blocked dryer vent is a genuine fire hazard, and we treat it with the same written-price, upfront protocol as every other job. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Edgewood typically takes 60 – 90 minutes.
Duct Sealing in Edgewood
Older Edgewood homes with galvanized or early flex duct leak conditioned air into attics and crawl spaces at rates that modern mastic and aerosol sealing can cut dramatically. We apply duct sealing mastic to accessible joints and, where appropriate, use aerosolized sealant that finds leaks mechanically impossible to reach. Sealed ducts reduce the humidity load on your system, which directly counters Edgewood’s mold-friendly climate. Duct Sealing in Edgewood includes a post-seal pressure test with results in writing.
