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 South Lockport, NY
Full-system air duct cleaning in South Lockport, NY typically runs $350 – $650 for a standard home, with dryer vent cleaning adding $120 – $200 and duct sealing ranging $400 – $900 depending on access. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and we dispatch crews to South Lockport from our New York City office. The work here is different from newer suburbs because most South Lockport homes were built before modern ductwork standards, with original galvanized steel ducts that have spent decades expanding and contracting through harsh freeze-thaw cycles. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate.
Why South Lockport Homes Are Different
South Lockport sits close enough to Lake Ontario and the Erie Canal that moisture is a constant factor in how ductwork ages. The humid summers push mold and mildew growth inside uncleaned returns, while the cold, snowy winters create condensation that rusts out original galvanized steel ducts. We’ve opened systems in South Lockport where the sheet metal was pitted through from decades of this cycle.
The housing stock tells the rest of the story. Most homes here date to the early-to-mid 20th century, many with full basements and original ductwork that was sized for coal furnaces and later adapted for gas forced-air. That retrofit often left undersized returns and uneven airflow that cleaning alone won’t correct. We also see a lot of postwar capes and colonials with aftermarket additions, which means mismatched duct runs, disconnected sections, and debris pulled in through foundation vents. The mature maple trees throughout South Lockport drop seeds and leaves that find their way into outdoor intakes. It’s not unusual for us to pull a surprising volume of organic material out of a system that hasn’t been opened in years.
Our Main South Lockport Services
Most calls we get from South Lockport fall into three categories. Each has its own page with full pricing and details.
Air Duct Cleaning in South Lockport
We clean full duct systems using a rotary brush system from Rotobrush combined with negative-air machines from Nikro. In South Lockport, this means working around tight basement headroom, rusted access panels, and the occasional coal-dust residue we still find in century-old trunks. We photograph the before condition, run the full system, and show you the after. Every job gets a written price before we start and is covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise.

Dryer Vent Cleaning in South Lockport
Dryer vent blockages are a genuine fire hazard, and South Lockport’s older homes often have vent runs that are too long, too many elbows, or terminate in awkward spots. We clear the full run from appliance to exterior cap, check airflow with a meter, and flag any code issues we find. If the vent fails within a year, we come back free.

Duct Sealing in South Lockport
Given the age of South Lockport’s housing stock, this is often the most important service we offer. Original sheet metal seams loosen over time, and the freeze-thaw cycle accelerates the problem. We seal accessible joints with mastic and apply aerosol sealant where appropriate, which can cut conditioned-air loss by 20 – 30 percent in a typical older home. Duct Sealing in South Lockport
