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.
Fast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Brisbane
Brisbane sits in that odd pocket of the Bay where the fog lingers longer than it does in South San Francisco and the hillside homes catch more damp air than anything built on flat ground. We’ve been driving these curves since 2004, and our crews know the difference between a house on Kings Road with original 1950s ductwork and a Baylands townhome pulling air off the lagoon. Air duct cleaning in Brisbane typically runs $350 – $650 for a full residential system, and we schedule most jobs within a few days of your call. When you’re ready for a written estimate, call us at (361) 326-5060. Our dispatch team operates from the Los Angeles office, but the technicians who arrive at your Brisbane door are local to this market and familiar with the specific duct configurations common here.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Brisbane’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve earned our reputation in Brisbane by showing up inside the window we quoted, pricing the job in writing before touching a single vent, and leaving the site clean. That’s The Garrison Standard, and it’s how every independently owned Hollis location operates.
Our Brisbane customers aren’t shy about what matters to them. They mention the 365-Day Done Right Promise repeatedly, because it’s rare in this trade: if the work fails within a year, we return and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. No negotiation, no runaround.
Response time to Brisbane neighborhoods runs faster than you’d expect from a company that doesn’t cut corners on staffing. Phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, not a callback queue that dumps you to Monday.
The local knowledge separates us too. We know which hillside homes on San Bruno Avenue still run gravity-fed floor furnaces with decades of accumulated dust, and which Sierra Point condos need careful moisture checks after fog season. That context means we don’t waste your time guessing what’s in your walls.
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Brisbane
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Brisbane cover the full removal of dust, debris, and microbial buildup from the network of supply and return ducts that move conditioned air through your home. Most Brisbane homeowners schedule this every 3 to 5 years, though homes near the lagoon or with poor ventilation may need attention sooner due to the persistent marine moisture. A typical residential cleaning in Brisbane runs $350 – $650 depending on system size and accessibility; commercial systems start around $800 and scale from there.
Residential System Cleaning
Our residential crews use Rotobrush rotary brush systems to agitate debris loose from duct walls, then extract it with Nikro negative-air machines that maintain suction throughout the job. For Brisbane’s older hillside homes, we often encounter flexible retrofitted ducts that require gentler handling than the rigid metal systems found in Baylands construction.

Video Inspection and Documentation
We feed a camera through your ductwork before and after cleaning so you see what was there and what we removed. In Brisbane’s high-humidity environment, this documentation is particularly useful for spotting early mold growth in corners where moisture collects.

HVAC Duct Cleaning in Brisbane
HVAC Duct Cleaning in Brisbane addresses the entire forced-air system, including the furnace cabinet, evaporator coil housing, blower compartment, and all accessible trunk lines. Because Brisbane’s cool, moist marine air keeps indoor humidity relatively high, mold growth inside ductwork is a genuine concern here, especially in homes with poor ventilation or systems that short-cycle. A full HVAC duct cleaning in Brisbane typically costs $450 – $750 for residential properties, with pricing set in writing before work begins.
Supply and Return Line Separation
We clean supply ducts and return ducts as distinct zones, sealing one side while working the other to prevent cross-contamination. This matters in Brisbane’s mixed housing stock, where return paths in older homes sometimes draw through wall cavities rather than dedicated ductwork.
Component-Level Cleaning
The blower wheel and evaporator coil get cleaned as part of a full HVAC service, not just the ducts themselves. In Sierra Point townhomes where systems run nearly year-round for both heating and cooling, these components accumulate debris faster than in milder inland climates.
Trusted Brands We Service in Brisbane
We stock parts and filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Abatement Technologies for Brisbane customers, which means most replacements happen same-visit rather than ordering and returning. Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines, the same tools commercial crews use in larger facilities. If your system uses a proprietary filter or a specific media cabinet, we’ll identify it during the initial walkthrough and source accordingly. That preparation keeps turnaround tight and avoids the “we’ll be back next week” routine that frustrates homeowners who took time off work for the appointment.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Brisbane Homes
- Decades of dust in hillside gravity systems. Homes on Kings Road and San Bruno Avenue often still run original mid-century ductwork or floor furnaces that have never been properly cleaned. The debris layer can be substantial enough to restrict airflow and force the system to work harder.
- Moisture-driven mold in Baylands and Sierra Point townhomes. Sealed modern systems in these neighborhoods pull damp air off the lagoon and hold it inside rigid metal ducts. Without regular cleaning and proper filtration, musty odors spread room to room.
- Poor ventilation compounding humidity. Brisbane’s frequent fog keeps baseline moisture high, and homes with inadequate exhaust fans or blocked soffit vents trap that moisture inside the duct network year-round.
- Retrofit ductwork failing at connections. Older homes that added central air later often use flexible duct runs with taped joints that loosen over decades of thermal cycling on San Bruno Mountain’s temperature swings.

Yes, we service the full Brisbane area, from the older single-story homes on San Bruno Mountain slopes to the newer townhomes in Sierra Point and the Baylands near the lagoon. Our Air Duct Cleaning crews carry equipment for both flexible retrofitted ducts and rigid modern systems.
We don’t advertise emergency dispatch for duct cleaning specifically, but our phones are answered by a live person 24/7, and we can often accommodate same-week scheduling for situations involving suspected mold, post-construction debris, or system failure related to severe duct blockage.
Brisbane pricing sits roughly in line with South San Francisco and Daly City, though hillside homes with difficult access or original mid-century ductwork may run toward the higher end of our ranges. The written estimate you receive is specific to your home, not a generic regional average.
Every job is backed by our 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing.

No expiration games, no fine-print exclusions.
