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 Bellaire, TX
Air duct cleaning in Bellaire typically runs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and we handle the specific challenges that come with Bellaire’s aging ranch housing stock and Gulf Coast humidity. Our crews work from the Houston office and serve Bellaire directly, bringing Rotobrush rotary systems and Nikro negative-air equipment to jobs where original flex duct has been baking in attics since the Eisenhower administration. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
Why Bellaire Homes Are Different
Bellaire’s housing market is dominated by original 1950s-60s single-story ranch homes built on pier-and-beam or slab foundations. Many of these houses still run flex duct through attic spaces that hit 140°F in July and August, and that thermal stress degrades connections, tears insulation, and loosens seals in ways you don’t see in newer construction with rigid metal trunk lines.
The humidity is the other factor. Bellaire sits in a humid subtropical zone where HVAC systems run eight to nine months annually. Condensation builds inside ductwork, and the constant moisture creates an environment where mold and mildew colonize quickly. We’ve opened systems in Bellaire where the first foot of flex duct off the plenum was lined with visible growth.
Flood history matters here too. Many Bellaire homes were rebuilt after hurricane and heavy rain events, and replacement ductwork installed during those rebuilds often wasn’t sealed to the same standard as original construction. We’ve found disconnected runs, unsealed boots, and filter gaps that pull attic air straight into the living space.
The city’s point-of-sale inspection program adds a practical wrinkle. When a Bellaire home sells, the inspection often flags duct conditions that must be addressed before closing. That means we regularly coordinate directly with realtors, buyers, and sellers to get work done on a transaction timeline, something you won’t see in Houston neighborhoods without that ordinance.
Our Main Bellaire Services
Most Bellaire homeowners call us for one of three jobs. Each has its own page with full detail on what’s included, how we price it, and what the work looks like in your specific home.
Air Duct Cleaning in Bellaire
We clean the complete supply and return duct network, from the main trunk lines to each register boot, using a Rotobrush rotary brush system for agitation and a Nikro negative-air machine to pull loosened debris out of your home entirely. In Bellaire’s older ranches, we pay particular attention to flex duct connections that have worked loose in hot attics and to register boots that may have separated from drywall during past flooding. The job includes before-and-after photos of your own ducts, not stock images. Air Duct Cleaning in Bellaire
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Bellaire
Dryer vent cleaning removes lint buildup from the transition duct, wall run, and exterior termination. In Bellaire’s dense ranch neighborhoods, many dryer vents run long horizontal paths through slab foundations or extended wall cavities, creating spots where lint accumulates and airflow drops. We measure airflow before and after with an anemometer and show you the numbers. Reduced dryer vent flow is a genuine fire hazard, and we’re explicit about that. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Bellaire
Duct Sealing in Bellaire
Duct sealing closes the gaps, seams, and disconnected joints that leak conditioned air into your attic or crawl space. We use mastic sealant and mechanical fasteners, not tape that degrades. In Bellaire homes with post-flood replacement ductwork, we often find sealing that was skipped or done with foil tape that’s already failing. The work is priced per system, not per linear foot, and we test with a pressure pan to verify results. Duct Sealing in Bellaire
