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 Valrico, FL
Air duct cleaning in Valrico, FL typically runs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system and addresses a problem most inland Florida markets don’t face: fine sugar-sand infiltration combined with year-round humidity that turns attic ductwork into a mold-and-sand remediation job, not simple dust removal. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and our crews work the Valrico ridge regularly. If you’re noticing a musty smell that returns after basic cleaning, or your vents are pushing sandy grit, the issue is usually deeper than a surface vacuum. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate with a written price before any work starts.
Why Valrico Homes Are Different
Valrico sits on a sandy, high-water-table ridge east of Tampa, and that geology changes everything about how we clean ducts here. Nearly every home is slab-on-grade with ductwork running through a shallow, humid attic that never really dries out. The housing stock is dominated by 1980s-2000s subdivisions in Bloomingdale, River Hills, and Buckhorn, concrete-block construction with flex-duct or sheet-metal trunk systems that have baked in unconditioned attic space for decades. Many were re-roofed after the 2004 hurricanes but still carry original ductwork.
The climate seals the problem. With 50-plus inches of rain annually and only a few weeks of true winter, HVAC systems run almost constantly. Attic ductwork stays damp and warm, ideal for mold and mildew. After a typical summer afternoon thunderstorm, we pull fine sugar-sand from return ducts, blown in from the sandy ridge soil around slab foundations. Homeowners in older Bloomingdale sections often describe a musty “wet attic” smell that returns within months if the evaporator coil pan and duct insulation aren’t addressed alongside the duct cleaning itself. That’s why Valrico jobs require more than a rotary brush pass, they need full-system assessment.
Our Main Valrico Services
Most Valrico homeowners call us for one of three jobs. Each has its own page with full detail on what we do, what we charge, and what to expect.
Air Duct Cleaning in Valrico
We clean the full supply and return network with Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines, pulling debris toward the vacuum rather than pushing it into your living space. In Valrico, we pay special attention to sand loading in return ducts and biological growth on flex-duct interior walls. Every job gets before-and-after photos of your own ducts, not stock images. Air Duct Cleaning in Valrico covers full pricing and what the visit includes.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Valrico
Dryer vent blockages are a fire hazard and a hidden energy cost. In Valrico’s older subdivisions, we often find vents with multiple 90-degree turns or excessive run length through hot attics, where lint compacts with humidity. We clear the full run from dryer to termination, test airflow with a manometer, and verify the exterior flap opens fully under load. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Valrico has full details and pricing.
Duct Sealing in Valrico
Valrico’s original flex-duct and sheet-metal systems have decades of thermal expansion and attic heat cycling. We seal leaks with mastic and mechanical fasteners, then pressure-test to verify results. Sealing before cleaning, or when cleaning reveals extensive leakage, often drops energy bills and stops the attic air infiltration that carries musty odors into living spaces. Duct Sealing in Valrico explains when sealing makes sense and what it costs.
