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.

Fairview’s not like the flatland suburbs. This unincorporated pocket of Alameda County sits in the Diablo Winds corridor between Castro Valley and Pleasanton, where fall and winter bring wildfire smoke and PG&E Public Safety Power Shutoff events, not blazing summer heat. The homes tell the same story: mid-century ranches from the 1950s through the 1970s, custom hillside builds along the canyons, many on private wells and septic, with original galvanized or flex duct runs that have never been properly sealed. We’ve cleaned ducts on Fairview Avenue, up the winding roads toward Five Canyons, and along the older ranch streets where the housing stock predates modern filtration standards. We know what we’re walking into, and we price it in writing before we touch anything.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Fairview’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been in business since 2004, and our Air Duct Cleaning team operates under The Garrison Standard: arrive inside the quoted window, price in writing, complete the job by the book, leave the site clean. Fairview homeowners get the same discipline we apply everywhere. Every technician is background-checked and uniformed. You know who’s walking into your home before they arrive.
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 to schedule. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers every job in writing: if the work fails within a year, we return and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. That’s not a satisfaction guarantee; that’s a specific, written obligation.
Local knowledge matters here. Our techs understand that Fairview’s hillside homes, with their older forced-air furnaces and pre-modern duct sealing, respond differently to smoke events than newer construction in the flatlands. We’ve found crushed flex runs in crawlspaces, disconnected returns pulling garage air, and blower motors coated with ash that bypassed a thin fiberglass filter. We explain what we find on camera, price the fix before we start, and show you before-and-after photos of your own ducts.
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Fairview
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Fairview addresses the same smoke-intrusion problems as residential work, but at scale for small office buildings, medical clinics, retail spaces, and multi-tenant properties along Fairview Avenue and the commercial strips near the I-580 corridor. A typical commercial system in Fairview runs $800 – $2,400 depending on square footage, number of air handlers, and accessibility. We use Nikro negative-air machines and Rotobrush rotary agitation tools to dislodge accumulated ash and debris, then extract it under controlled pressure so nothing redistributes into occupied spaces.
System Accessibility and Containment
Commercial buildings in Fairview’s older commercial pockets often have ductwork installed during original construction with limited access panels. We cut necessary access points, complete the cleaning, and seal them with code-compliant covers. Negative-air containment prevents ash from entering workspaces during the job.
Post-Cleaning Documentation
Every commercial job includes written documentation of before-and-after conditions, filter specifications, and any mechanical issues observed. Fairview property managers use this for tenant communication and insurance records after smoke events.
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Fairview
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Fairview cover the full residential system: supply ducts, return ducts, trunk lines, boots, and the air handler cabinet. A complete residential cleaning in Fairview typically costs $350 – $550 for a standard single-system home, with older homes requiring additional sealing work running toward the higher end. We inspect first with a video camera, show you what we’re seeing, and write the price down before any equipment runs.
Smoke-Season Source Removal
After a PSPS shutoff or Diablo Winds event, Fairview homeowners often need source removal: negative-air extraction with rotary brush agitation to pull ash and particulate from the duct walls. We run Rotobrush systems through each branch, followed by high-volume vacuum extraction. The goal is removing what the furnace fan pulled in, not just surface dust.

Duct Sealing and Mechanical Protection
Cleaning without sealing is half a job in Fairview. We apply duct sealing mastic to joints and reconnections, replace crushed flex runs, and upgrade filtration to MERV 13 media cabinets where the furnace can handle the static pressure. This keeps the next smoke event outside your living space.

Trusted Brands We Service in Fairview
We stock and install filtration and cleaning equipment from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman, with professional-grade cleaning systems from Rotobrush and Nikro. For Fairview homeowners, this means no waiting on parts shipments from out of state. A failed filter housing on a 1970s Carrier furnace, a cracked Aprilaire media cabinet, a Guardsman UV light replacement: we carry the common sizes and configurations for the equipment found in Fairview’s older housing stock. Our techs know which Honeywell media cabinets fit the restricted plenum spaces in mid-century ranch builds, and which Nikro negative-air configurations work for the longer duct runs in hillside custom homes. Fast turnaround because the parts are on the van, not on order.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Fairview Homes
- Smoke redistribution through the return system. After a PSPS shutoff, Fairview homeowners often run the furnace fan to “clear the air.” That fan pulls wildfire smoke and ash straight through uncleaned return ducts and blows it out every supply vent. We’ve cleaned systems where the homeowner’s own HVAC equipment contaminated the entire house.
- Original galvanized ductwork leaking at every joint. The 1950s – 70s ranch homes common in Fairview use galvanized steel supply runs with unsealed joints and no mastic. Smoke intrusion happens even when the system is off, because the house breathes through those gaps.
- Crushed or disconnected flex runs in crawlspaces. Hillside custom builds and additions often use flex duct in tight crawlspaces where it gets stepped on, kinked, or pulled loose. We find these with video inspection, reconnect or replace them, and seal the connections properly.
- Pre-modern filtration letting ash coat the blower motor. Older forced-air furnaces in Fairview, common in the original housing stock, use thin fiberglass filters or no filter at all. Ash bypasses the filter, coats the blower wheel and air handler, and turns a duct cleaning into a mechanical cleanup of the entire air moving system.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Fairview
Fairview sits in the Diablo Winds corridor, where dry offshore east winds blow wildfire smoke and ash directly into the hills during fall and winter PG&E PSPS shutoffs. Summer is mild here; the real contamination event is smoke season, not dust season. Call (361) 326-5060 if you’ve had a recent shutoff and want your system inspected.
No. Running the furnace fan after a smoke event pulls ash through uncleaned return ducts and redistributes it through every supply vent in the house. We’ve cleaned Fairview homes where this exact action contaminated the entire system. Have the ducts inspected and cleaned first. Call (361) 326-5060 to schedule.
Original galvanized supply runs with unsealed joints, crushed flex duct in crawlspaces, disconnected returns pulling garage or attic air, and blower motors coated with ash from pre-modern filtration. We document everything on camera before we quote. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free video inspection.
Yes. Our source removal methods, access point practices, and containment procedures align with NADCA ACR guidelines. We use Nikro negative-air machines and Rotobrush agitation tools, with written documentation of before-and-after conditions on every job. Call (361) 326-5060 to discuss your specific system.
Often yes. Pre-modern furnaces with thin fiberglass filters let ash bypass and coat the blower wheel, heat exchanger, and air handler cabinet. We inspect the mechanical components during duct cleaning and quote any needed mechanical cleanup separately, in writing, before we start. Call (361) 326-5060 for an estimate.
