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.

AfterFast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Woodside
Air duct cleaning in Woodside typically runs $450 – $950 for a full residential system and is scheduled by appointment, not rushed. We’re the Air Duct Cleaning crew that serves Woodside from our San Francisco Bay Area office, and we know the difference between a standard tract home job and the kind of work these properties demand. If you’re noticing weak airflow from vents, dust settling faster than it should, or your HVAC system cycling longer to hold temperature, your ductwork is likely carrying years of buildup through a house with longer runs and more zones than most.
Woodside isn’t a town of identical floor plans. You’ve got estate homes off Mountain Home Road with ductwork spidering through attics and crawlspaces over multiple acres, mid-century ranches near Canada Road with original galvanized ducting, and newer builds tucked into the hills above Interstate 280 with sealed systems that still pull in debris from the oak canopy overhead. We arrive inside our quoted window, price the job in writing before touching anything, and leave the site clean. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Woodside’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been doing this since 2004 as part of the Garrison Partners family, and our reputation in Woodside was built on showing up prepared for homes that don’t fit the standard playbook. Our technicians carry rotary brush systems from Rotobrush and negative-air machines from Nikro, the same equipment commercial crews use, because a 6,000-square-foot home with four zones needs more than a shop vacuum and a brush on a stick.
Woodside customers call us back because we price in writing before work starts and that number doesn’t move at the door. No per-vent add-ons, no “surprise, you need this too” once we’re inside. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers every job in writing: if the work fails within a year, we return and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. That’s not marketing language; it’s printed on every invoice.
Our phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No voicemail loops, no callback queues. Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our San Francisco Bay Area office, and crews serve Woodside locally with background-checked, uniformed technicians who follow The Garrison Standard: arrive inside the window, price in writing, complete the job by the book, leave the site clean.
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Woodside
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Woodside cover the complete removal of dust, debris, pollen, and biological buildup from the ductwork that moves conditioned air through your home. For most Woodside properties, we recommend this every three to five years, though homes near open space preserves or with mature oak canopies overhead may need attention sooner due to debris load. A typical residential job in Woodside runs $450 – $750 for a single-zone system and $750 – $950 for multi-zone estate homes with longer duct runs and additional returns.
Residential Duct Cleaning
Our residential work starts with a video inspection so you see what we’re seeing before we quote. We use Rotobrush rotary brush systems to agitate debris from duct walls, coupled with Nikro negative-air machines that maintain suction and prevent contamination from spreading into your living space. For Woodside homes with guest houses or pool houses on the same property, we price each system separately and clearly.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Woodside’s commercial properties, including equestrian facilities, winery tasting rooms, and small professional offices along Woodside Road, need scheduled cleaning that doesn’t disrupt operations. We work after hours or in sections, using Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration to contain particulates, and we provide before-and-after documentation for facility managers and property owners.

HVAC Duct Cleaning in Woodside
HVAC Duct Cleaning in Woodside addresses the full mechanical system: supply ducts that push conditioned air to your rooms, return ducts that pull air back for reconditioning, and the registers, grilles, and plenums that connect them. Because Woodside’s housing stock includes everything from 1920s estates with retrofitted forced-air to new construction with sealed ductboard, we assess each system individually before recommending a scope of work. A full system cleaning with video inspection in Woodside typically falls between $650 – $950 depending on access complexity and contamination level.
Supply and Return Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts run from your air handler to each room; return ducts collect air from central grilles and route it back. In Woodside homes with multiple HVAC zones, these runs can stretch 50 feet or more through attics and crawlspaces, creating dead zones where debris settles. We clean both sides of the system because dirty returns recontaminate clean supplies.
Video Inspection and Documentation
Every full-system job includes video inspection before and after. You see the buildup, you see the clear duct, and you have proof the work was done. In a market where bait-and-switch pricing is common, documentation protects both of us.
Trusted Brands We Service in Woodside
We clean ductwork connected to equipment from every major manufacturer, and we stock filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman for Woodside customers who want to maintain results between professional cleanings. Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary brush systems for agitation, Nikro negative-air machines for containment, and Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration for capture. If your system needs a filter upgrade after cleaning, we carry the correct size and MERV rating for your unit and install it before we leave. No special orders, no waiting for parts to ship from a warehouse in another state.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Woodside Homes
- Acorn and rodent debris in ductwork near open space. Homes backing up to Huddart Park or the oak woodlands above Kings Mountain Road regularly have technicians find nesting materials, acorn caches, and rodent droppings in return ducts. We remove the contamination and recommend sealing access points to prevent recurrence.
- Moisture-related microbial growth in winter. Woodside’s cool, wet winters mean condensation can form in ductwork running through unconditioned crawlspaces, especially in older homes with galvanized ducting. We treat affected sections and note insulation gaps for your HVAC contractor.
- Dust accumulation in long attic runs. Estate homes off Mountain Home Road and Albion Avenue often have ductwork stretching 60 feet or more through hot attics, where temperature swings break loose settled dust that then circulates through the house.
- Pollen and leaf debris from the oak canopy. Woodside’s dense tree cover is beautiful, but outdoor HVAC intakes pull in pollen, leaves, and organic matter that eventually migrate into ductwork. We clean the full path from intake to register.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Woodside
We typically schedule Woodside appointments within 3 – 5 business days, with flexibility for homes that need coordination with property managers or estate staff. Call (361) 326-5060 to check current availability.
Yes. We work throughout Woodside, including the estate properties off Mountain Home Road, the ranches and horse properties along Canada Road, and the hillside homes above Interstate 280 near the Woodside-Palo Alto border. Our technicians are familiar with gate codes, private roads, and the access requirements of multi-acre properties.
We don’t classify duct cleaning as an emergency service, but our phones are answered by a live person 24/7 and we can expedite scheduling if you’ve discovered significant contamination, rodent activity, or post-construction debris that is affecting air quality. For true HVAC emergencies, we recommend contacting your heating and cooling contractor first.
Woodside jobs often run toward the higher end of our range because of larger homes, longer duct runs, and multi-zone systems, but our pricing structure is consistent across the Bay Area. A single-zone home in Woodside costs the same to clean as a single-zone home in San Jose. The difference is the scope of work, not the zip code.
Every job is covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If the cleaning fails to resolve the issue we addressed, or if workmanship proves defective within one year, we return and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. That’s standard on every Hollis job, including all Woodside work.
