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 Lincoln, CA
Most Lincoln homes need a full air duct cleaning every three to five years, with whole-system jobs in this market typically running $350 – $650 for a standard single-family residence. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and we’ve built our work around the realities of Lincoln’s newer housing stock, its hot Sacramento Valley summers, and the construction debris that still hides in ducts across master-planned communities from Twelve Bridges to Foskett Ranch. If you’re ready to schedule, call us at (361) 326-5060 for a free written estimate.
Why Lincoln Homes Are Different
Lincoln’s explosive growth along the Highway 65 corridor means thousands of homes in master-planned communities like Twelve Bridges, Sorrento, and Foskett Ranch were built within the last two decades. Many of those builder-grade HVAC systems are now hitting their first major duct-cleaning milestone, where construction debris, drywall dust, and warranty-driven maintenance needs collide. We’ve opened systems in Lincoln that still carried the original installation dust from 2005.
The housing mix matters too. Most Lincoln homes are newer single-family construction from the 1990s through the 2020s, with flexible ductwork in modern floor plans that is prone to kinking and, in some areas, rodent intrusion. In Sun City Lincoln Hills and other active-adult communities, it’s common to find original HVAC systems from the early 2000s with ductwork that has never been professionally cleaned, often because the original homeowners never occupied the home during peak summer months. That’s a pattern unique to Lincoln’s large seasonal and retiree population.
Climate pushes the work harder here. Lincoln sits in the Sacramento Valley’s hot-summer Mediterranean climate, where prolonged 100°F+ days keep HVAC systems running near-constantly, pulling in dust, pollen, and wildfire smoke from the surrounding Sierra foothills. That combination clogs filters and ducts faster than in cooler coastal markets. We’ve found systems in Lincoln running 40% harder than necessary simply because the ductwork hadn’t been cleaned since the Bush administration.
Our Main Lincoln Services
These are the three services Lincoln homeowners call us about most often. Each has its own Lincoln page with detailed pricing, process notes, and neighborhood-specific conditions.
Air Duct Cleaning in Lincoln
We clean the full supply and return duct network, registers, and main trunk lines using a rotary brush system paired with negative-air containment. In Lincoln, we pay special attention to flexible duct runs in newer homes, which can collapse or kink if handled roughly, and we document before-and-after conditions with photos you can keep. Most Air Duct Cleaning in Lincoln jobs take three to five hours for a standard single-family system.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lincoln
Lint buildup in dryer vents is a leading cause of house fires, and Lincoln’s long vent runs in newer two-story homes make the problem worse. We clean the full vent path from the dryer to the exterior termination using a rotary brush and high-velocity air whip, then verify airflow with a meter. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lincoln typically runs $120 – $200 and takes about an hour.
Duct Sealing in Lincoln
Leaky ducts waste 20 – 30% of conditioned air in the average home. In Lincoln, we see this most often at flex-duct connections in attics and crawl spaces, where thermal expansion and builder-grade tape have failed. We seal with mastic and mechanical fasteners, then pressure-test the system. Duct Sealing in Lincoln jobs range from $400 – $900 depending on system size and accessibility.
