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 Coral Gables, FL
Air duct cleaning in Coral Gables typically runs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. Coral Gables homes present challenges you won’t find in standard suburban construction: original 1920s – 40s gravity and early forced-air ducting hidden beneath barrel-tile roofs, tight attic spaces, and a mature tree canopy that pumps organic debris into outdoor intakes year-round. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Garrison Partners family, and our crews are equipped for the access problems and code constraints that come with Mediterranean Revival housing stock. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free written estimate.
Why Coral Gables Homes Are Different
Coral Gables isn’t a city where you can pull attic ductwork and replace it without paperwork. The City’s historic-preservation and building codes mean many homes still run on original 1920s – 40s systems that cannot be simply swapped out. Duct cleaning here is as much about careful access, patching, and code-compliant modification as it is about vacuuming debris.
The housing stock tells the story: Mediterranean Revival and Mission-style homes with barrel-tile roofs and low-pitch attics dominate, plus mid-century ranches and luxury high-rises along the Miracle Mile and Biltmore corridors. Tile roofs and tight attics make duct access labor-intensive. Our crews often enter through roof or soffit points rather than standard attic hatches.
The climate layers on more complexity. Coral Gables sits in a tropical monsoon zone: hot, humid summers, a May – October rainy season, and year-round moisture that keeps HVAC systems running almost constantly. Ducts here don’t just collect dust; they’re prime sites for mold, mildew, and biological growth. Hurricane season (June – November) drives additional moisture intrusion and storm debris into systems.
Then there’s the canopy. Streets like Granada Boulevard and Coral Way are tunnelled by mature ficus and live oak that shed fine organic matter into outdoor air intakes. That debris coats interior duct walls with a sticky, humid biofilm. A standard one-pass vacuum often fails inspection here. A second pass with antimicrobial treatment is the local norm, not an upsell.
Our Main Coral Gables Services
Most Coral Gables homeowners call us for one of three jobs, each shaped by the local housing stock and climate conditions:
Air Duct Cleaning in Coral Gables
We clean supply and return ductwork using Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines that pull loosened debris out of the airstream rather than pushing it deeper into the system. In Coral Gables, this means navigating original galvanized ducting, tight attic clearances, and biofilm buildup from the tree canopy. We photograph the interior before and after so you see what came out. Air Duct Cleaning in Coral Gables covers our full process and pricing.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Coral Gables
Dryer vent blockages are a fire hazard and an efficiency killer, especially in Coral Gables homes where long vent runs through masonry walls or roof terminations are common. We clear the full run from appliance to termination, check airflow with a manometer, and flag any code issues with the exhaust setup. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Coral Gables has the details.
Duct Sealing in Coral Gables
Leaky ductwork in a Coral Gables attic dumps conditioned air into 130-degree roof spaces and pulls humid outdoor air back into the system. We seal joints and penetrations with mastic and specialized tape, then pressure-test to verify the seal. In historic homes where replacement isn’t permitted, sealing is often the most cost-effective efficiency upgrade available. Duct Sealing in Coral Gables explains what’s involved.
