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 Galt, CA
Air duct cleaning in Galt, CA typically costs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system and is scheduled by appointment, not dispatched same-day. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Garrison Partners family, and our crews handle the specific mix of agricultural dust, Delta pollen, and rodent-damaged flex duct that Galt homes produce. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a free written estimate before any work starts.
Why Galt Homes Are Different
Galt sits in the southern Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta where agricultural dust and seasonal allergens hit harder than almost anywhere else in Sacramento County. The fine, dark, silt-like soil that blows off surrounding farmland doesn’t just settle on windowsills; it pulls into return ducts, coats evaporator coils, and forms a stubborn mat inside flex duct runs. From May through October, most Galt homeowners run their AC continuously, which means that pollen and dust bake into a sticky layer on the coil and the first ten feet of return trunk.
The housing stock splits two ways. The original town core has older single-story ranch homes, many still running original or retrofitted flex duct that’s gone saggy in the attic. On the east and south edges, 1990s-2000s tract subdivisions were built with cheap builder-grade flex duct prone to crushed runs and disconnected joints. In both cases, attic temperatures regularly hit 140°F in July and August, accelerating duct fatigue. And every fall, rats pushed in from surrounding farmland and Delta sloughs chew through flex duct in newer subdivisions, leaving debris and droppings that no filter change will remove. That’s why a proper Galt duct cleaning often includes inspecting for rodent damage and recommending repair or sealing before the job is closed out.
Our Main Galt Services
Most Galt homeowners call us for one of three jobs. Each has its own page with full pricing, process details, and local conditions.
Air Duct Cleaning in Galt
We pull the agricultural dust, pollen buildup, and rodent debris from your entire duct system using a Rotobrush rotary brush system paired with negative-air containment. In Galt, we pay special attention to the return side, where Delta dust loads are heaviest, and we inspect flex duct for fall rodent damage before we seal the access ports. Air Duct Cleaning in Galt covers full-home pricing and what’s included.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Galt
Dryer vent cleaning in Galt runs harder than inland Bay Area jobs because the same fine agricultural dust that loads your HVAC ducts also clogs exterior vent hoods and lint screens faster. We use Nikro equipment to clear the full run from dryer to termination, check for proper airflow, and verify the vent hood opens fully. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Galt has full details and pricing.
Duct Sealing in Galt
Galt’s hot attic spaces and rodent-chewed flex duct make leakage one of the costliest hidden problems we find. We apply duct sealing mastic and mechanical fasteners to close disconnected joints and seal punctured runs, then pressure-test to confirm the fix. Duct Sealing in Galt explains when sealing beats replacement.

Most Galt homeowners get an appointment within 3 – 5 business days, though peak allergy season in March and April can stretch to a week.
