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.

We’ve been working in Aldine long enough to know the housing stock. The 1960s – 1980s ranch houses off Aldine-Bender Road and along the Eastex Freeway corridor weren’t built for three-zone comfort systems, yet that’s what many of them have now. Original galvanized trunk lines, undersized for the load, with early flexible ductwork patched in wherever someone added a room. That matters when you’re pricing duct cleaning, because a “whole house” quote that assumes one system will miss two more air handlers in the attic.
Our Air Duct Cleaning team works under The Garrison Standard: arrive inside the window, price in writing, complete the job by the book, leave the site clean. In Aldine, that standard gets tested by humidity that stays above 70 percent for months, industrial particulate drifting from the Eastex Freeway and nearby corridors, and ductwork old enough to collect two decades of buildup before a homeowner even thinks to look. We’re familiar with the area because we’re here regularly, not because we bought a mailing list.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Aldine’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Hollis Air Duct Cleaning has been part of the Garrison Partners family since 2004. That’s a track record that predates most competitors you’ll find in Aldine’s market. We don’t compete on the lowest teaser price; we compete on discipline. The price is written down before any work starts, and it does not move at the door.
Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. You know who’s walking into your home before they arrive. And our phones are answered by a live person, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No voicemail loops, no callback queues, no waiting until Monday when your system is pumping musty air through the house.
Every job carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise. If the work fails within a year, we come back and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. That’s not a satisfaction guarantee; that’s a written obligation we put on every invoice.
We know Aldine’s neighborhoods. The ranch houses near Aldine Mail Route Road. The subdivisions off West Road. The older stock close to the Eastex Freeway where traffic particulate settles in attics and crawl spaces. That local knowledge means we don’t walk into your house guessing what we’ll find.
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Aldine
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Aldine covers office suites, retail spaces, warehouses, and light industrial facilities where the HVAC system moves air through ductwork that hasn’t been opened in years. We use Nikro negative-air machines and Rotobrush rotary systems to dislodge buildup and extract it under controlled pressure, then verify with video inspection. A typical commercial job in Aldine runs $800 – $2,500 depending on system count and square footage. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written quote.
System Documentation for Property Managers
Commercial clients in Aldine need records. We provide before-and-after video, filter MERV ratings, and a written scope of what was cleaned and what was found. That documentation protects you during lease turnovers and insurance reviews.
Scheduling Around Your Operations
We clean Aldine commercial systems after hours and on weekends. The negative-air method contains dust; your staff doesn’t come in to a coated desk. We coordinate timing through our Houston office and confirm the window in writing.
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Aldine
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Aldine include residential supply duct cleaning, return duct cleaning, full system cleaning, video inspection, and dryer vent cleaning as an add-on. We source-remove debris using rotary brush systems and negative-air extraction, then seal access panels with mastic. A single-system Aldine home typically runs $300 – $450; two-system homes $450 – $650; three-system homes $550 – $950. Every price is written and agreed before we touch equipment.
Per-System Pricing for Multi-System Homes
In Aldine’s 1960s – 1980s ranch houses, the original galvanized trunk lines are often still undersized for a good bit of what gets comfort-zoned later, so a typical three-system home here isn’t three identical jobs. The returns breathe differently system to system. We price each system separately so you’re not paying for one and getting shortchanged on two.
Camera Verification You Can See
On a three-system ranch off the Eastex Freeway frontage in the Aldine area, our tech found the upstairs air handler pulling through a collapsed run of early flexible duct while the two downstairs systems looked fine on the registers. Camera inspection showed the tear, we cut in a new section, and the blower motor stopped short-cycling on long summer afternoons. We cleaned supply and return ducts by source removal under negative pressure, then verified with a second camera pass and a MERV rating check at the filter rack.

Trusted Brands We Service in Aldine
Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary brush systems for mechanical agitation, Nikro negative-air machines for controlled extraction, and filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman. We don’t show up with hardware-store vacuums and a brush on a stick. The Guardsman filtration line we install in Aldine homes is the same spec used in commercial environments. Parts and filters are stocked for common Aldine systems, so if we find a collapsed run or failed boot seal during cleaning, we can often fix it same visit rather than ordering and rescheduling. That matters when your attic is 120 degrees and you don’t want a return trip.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Aldine Homes
- Collapsed flexible duct in attic runs. Aldine’s early flexible ductwork, installed in the 1970s and 1980s, degrades in Houston’s attic heat. We regularly find sections that have pulled loose from boots or torn at stress points, bypassing conditioned air into the attic and driving up electric bills.
- Mold and mildew in return plenums. The humid subtropical climate in Aldine means relative humidity stays high even when systems aren’t running. Return plenums in unconditioned spaces grow surface mold that spores into the living area every time the blower cycles.
- Particulate loading near industrial corridors. Homes along the Eastex Freeway and nearby industrial routes see heavier dust and particulate infiltration than Aldine’s interior neighborhoods. That loading concentrates in return ducts and on blower wheels.
- Undersized returns on retrofitted systems. Original Aldine ranch houses were built for one system. When homeowners add zoning without upsizing returns, the existing ductwork whistles, leaks, and pulls attic air through every gap. Cleaning reveals the problem; camera inspection documents it.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Aldine
Yes, if all three have separate air handlers and duct networks. We price per system, not per house, because each system in an Aldine ranch has its own return paths, supply runs, and filter rack. A quote that assumes one system for a three-zone house will leave two-thirds of your ductwork uncleaned. Call (361) 326-5060 and we’ll scope each system on site.
Aldine’s housing stock is older, with more original ductwork in unconditioned attics and crawl spaces, combined with Houston’s year-round humidity that stays above 70 percent for months. Newer suburbs have tighter building envelopes and more recent duct materials. In Aldine, mold is survival maintenance, not luxury IAQ. We address it with source removal, then check your filter MERV rating and attic ventilation.
Before-and-after video from a borescope camera, a written scope of what was cleaned, and a second camera pass to verify. In Aldine, where flexible duct runs hide behind walls and registers can look clean while the trunk line behind them is deteriorated, camera documentation is the minimum, not the upsell. We provide it on every job. If a company won’t show you the inside of your ducts, they probably didn’t clean them thoroughly.
Yes. The particulate load from heavy traffic and nearby industrial corridors is measurably higher along the Eastex Freeway than in Aldine’s interior neighborhoods. That dust and combustion particulate enters through return intakes and settles in ductwork. Homes within a half-mile of the corridor typically benefit from cleaning every three to four years rather than the five-to-seven year standard for lower-exposure areas.
Yes, and we recommend it. The dryer vent is a separate system but it’s often the same access path and the same trip charge. In Aldine’s older homes, dryer vents run long distances through walls or terminate in awkward locations where lint accumulates. We add dryer vent cleaning for $125 – $225 when bundled with duct cleaning. Call (361) 326-5060 to schedule both.
