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 Palmetto Estates, FL
Air duct cleaning in Palmetto Estates runs $350 – $650 for a typical single-story home, with most jobs completed in one afternoon. What separates this market from inland Florida is the housing stock: most Palmetto Estates homes are 1960s – 1980s concrete block construction with original or first-generation ductwork sitting in unconditioned attics that hit 140°F in summer. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Garrison Partners family, and we dispatch crews to Palmetto Estates from our Miami office. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
Why Palmetto Estates Homes Are Different
Palmetto Estates sits in unincorporated Miami-Dade, and the housing tells the story. Most properties are single-story 3/2 or 4/2 concrete block ranch homes built between the 1960s and 1980s, with a large share still running original fiberglass ductboard or early flex-duct systems in their attics. That matters because ductboard is porous. Once mold takes hold in the fiberglass liner, wiping the surface does nothing. The material has to be agitated, extracted, and often treated with antimicrobial to stop regrowth.
The subtropical climate here makes it worse. May through October brings 80 – 90% humidity and daily thunderstorms. Attics routinely climb above 140°F, which bakes dust onto duct walls and creates the perfect breeding ground for mold whenever the AC cycles off. After Hurricane Irma and similar storm-driven outages, we fielded calls from Palmetto Estates homeowners who noticed musty odors and dark staining at ceiling vents within 48 hours of power restoration. When the AC stops for even a day in July, attic ducts cool just enough to wring out condensation and seed mold in the fiberglass liner. Orlando techs almost never see this pattern.
Our Main Palmetto Estates Services
Palmetto Estates homeowners call us for three jobs, each with its own page and pricing.
Air Duct Cleaning in Palmetto Estates
We clean the full supply and return trunk lines, branch ducts, and registers using a Rotobrush rotary brush system or Nikro negative-air machine depending on duct material and contamination level. In Palmetto Estates, we often find baked-on dust layers and mold staining inside original ductboard. We photograph the condition before we start and again after, so you see what came out. Every job gets a written price upfront and the 365-Day Done Right Promise. Air Duct Cleaning in Palmetto Estates
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Palmetto Estates
Dryer vent cleaning here means pulling lint and debris from the full run, including roof-term vents common on these single-story ranches. Blocked vents are a fire hazard and they extend drying times, but in Palmetto Estates we also see humidity-trapped lint turning to mold in the flex hose behind the dryer. We clean the full line and check airflow with a meter before we leave. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Palmetto Estates
Duct Sealing in Palmetto Estates
Duct sealing stops conditioned air from leaking into the attic through gaps at joints, plenums, and register boots. In Palmetto Estates homes with 40 – 60 year old ductwork, we regularly measure 20 – 30% airflow loss before sealing. We use mastic and metal-backed tape, not duct tape, to close gaps permanently. Sealing often pays for itself in reduced AC runtime during July and August. Duct Sealing in Palmetto Estates
