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.

Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Atlanta’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been in business since 2004, and our Atlanta customers tell us the same thing: they called us because they were tired of no-shows and prices that moved at the door. Our 365-Day Done Right Promise covers every job in writing. If the work fails within a year, we come back and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit.
Our technicians follow The Garrison Code on every Atlanta job: arrive inside the window, price in writing, complete the work by the book, and leave the site clean. Phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No voicemail loops, no callback queues.
We know Atlanta’s housing stock. The 1980s – 2000s tract homes in Marietta and Smyrna with flex duct in unconditioned attics need a different approach than the galvanized ductwork in a 1920s Craftsman in Inman Park. We bring the right equipment for each.
Our Air Duct Cleaning team uses professional-grade Rotobrush rotary brush systems, Nikro negative-air machines, and HEPA filtration from Honeywell and Aprilaire. These are the same tools commercial crews use, not hardware-store gear.
Air Duct Repair in Atlanta
Air Duct Repair in Atlanta often starts with a homeowner noticing weak airflow in one room, a whistling sound from a register, or dust pouring out every time the system cycles. In our market, the most common culprits are separated flex duct joints in unconditioned attics, where Atlanta’s heat and humidity degrade tape and mastic over fifteen to twenty years, and crushed or kinked flex duct runs that builders installed too tight between trusses. A typical repair in Atlanta runs $200 – $450 for a single run or joint, with full sectional replacement reaching $600 – $900 if the damage extends across multiple attic bays.
Separated Joints and Leaky Connections
Flex duct expands and contracts with temperature swings. In an Atlanta attic that hits 140°F in July, the adhesive on builder-grade tape fails. We reseal with Duct Sealing in Atlanta using mastic and mechanical fasteners, then test static pressure to confirm the fix.
Crushed or Collapsed Runs
Storage in attics is common in Atlanta’s smaller homes. We’ve found flex duct flattened by holiday decoration boxes in Smyrna and Marietta. We replace the damaged section with properly supported duct and install protective barriers where needed.
Ductwork Cleaning in Atlanta
Ductwork Cleaning in Atlanta is not a luxury for most homeowners; it’s maintenance that should have happened years ago. The northern-crescent suburbs like Alpharetta, Roswell, Johns Creek, Marietta, and Smyrna are full of 1980s – 2000s builder-grade tract homes whose flex duct runs sit in unconditioned attics, meaning they now need their first-ever professional cleaning after decades of pollen, red-clay dust, and mold spores cycling through them. A full system cleaning for a typical Atlanta home runs $350 – $650, with larger homes or systems with multiple zones reaching $700 – $950.
Construction Debris in Newer Homes
In a three-year-old Johns Creek home, our techs pulled the return register and found drywall dust and construction debris still coating the flex duct runs in the unconditioned attic. We used a Rotobrush agitation tool under negative pressure and HEPA filtration to remove the drywall dust and builder-grade debris, leaving the air handler and blower motor much cleaner.
Pollen and Biological Buildup
After a heavy pine pollen week in March or April, technicians commonly find that return ducts and air handlers are coated with a thick, sticky yellow-green film that standard vacuuming won’t remove without agitation and antimicrobial treatment. We don’t skip this step.
Trusted Brands We Service in Atlanta
We stock parts and filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Abatement Technologies, plus provide Trane service in Atlanta, which means faster turnaround and no waiting on shipped components. Honeywell media air cleaners and Aprilaire whole-house filters integrate with most Atlanta-area systems, including the high-velocity setups common in newer Inman Park renovations. Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration equipment is what we deploy on every job, containing contaminants rather than redistributing them through your home. When we recommend a filter upgrade after cleaning, we’re specifying products we can source locally and stand behind.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Atlanta Homes
- New-construction dust left after handover. Homeowners assume the builder cleaned the ducts, but flex duct runs in unconditioned attics trap drywall dust and construction debris that a standard vacuum can’t remove. We find this in homes from Johns Creek to Grant Park, even years after move-in.
- Spring pine pollen coating return ducts. Atlanta’s pollen season coats interior ductwork with a visible yellow film. Many duct cleaners skip agitation and antimicrobial treatment, leaving residue that recirculates when the system fires up.
- Mold spores spreading in humid summer conditions. Without proper agitation tools and HEPA filtration, cleaning flex duct in unconditioned attics can spread mold rather than contain it. Atlanta’s humidity makes this a real risk from June through September.
- Red-clay dust passing through low-MERV filters. The region’s distinctive soil produces fine particulate that standard fiberglass filters miss. We check filter ratings and recommend appropriate upgrades during every cleaning.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Atlanta, GA
A typical residential duct cleaning in Atlanta runs $350 – $650 for a full system, including supply ducts, return ducts, and the air handler. Larger homes in Alpharetta or Roswell with multiple zones or extensive flex duct networks may reach $700 – $950. Commercial systems start around $800 and scale with square footage and access complexity.
What moves the price: the number of supply and return vents, whether the home has flex duct or rigid metal, accessibility in the attic or crawl space, and the level of contamination. Construction debris and heavy pollen buildup require more agitation time and antimicrobial treatment. We give you one flat price per system, agreed in writing before any work starts. No per-vent add-ons, no surprises at the door. Call (361) 326-5060 for an exact quote; estimates are free.
