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.

AfterFast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Farmers Branch
Air duct cleaning in Farmers Branch typically runs $350 – $650 for a full residential system, and most jobs are completed in a single visit. If your ranch home was built between the 1950s and 1980s, you’re almost certainly dealing with original unlined sheet-metal trunk-and-branch ductwork that’s accumulated decades of debris, pollen, and rodent activity. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Garrison Partners family, and our crews work Farmers Branch regularly from our Dallas-Fort Worth dispatch office. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate with a written price before any work starts.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Farmers Branch’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been in business since 2004, and our Air Duct Cleaning team knows Farmers Branch’s housing stock inside out. This isn’t a market where we encounter new-construction flex-duct systems like you’ll find in Frisco or McKinney. Farmers Branch is fully built out with mid-century ranches and 1970s brick tract homes, which means every job involves retrofit work on aging infrastructure that newer crews simply haven’t seen before.
Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and held to The Garrison Standard: arrive inside the quoted window, price the job in writing before touching equipment, complete the work by the book, and leave the site clean. Every repair and cleaning is backed by our 365-Day Done Right Promise – if the work fails within a year, we return and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. Phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No voicemail loops. No callback queues.
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Farmers Branch
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Farmers Branch are almost always retrofit jobs on systems that were installed decades ago and modified piecemeal since. The typical home here has an original sheet-metal trunk in the attic or crawlspace, with flex-duct additions from various HVAC replacements and room additions over the years. Our process starts with a video inspection so you see what we see, followed by negative-pressure source removal using HEPA-filtered Nikro equipment and rotary brush agitation from Rotobrush systems. A typical residential full-system clean in Farmers Branch runs $350 – $550 for a single-story ranch, with two-story homes or systems with extensive flex-duct additions running $450 – $650.
Residential Duct Cleaning
We clean both supply and return ducts, registers, grilles, and the air handler cabinet. In Farmers Branch’s 1960s – 70s ranches, we regularly find return ducts packed with oak and cedar pollen from spring surges, plus rodent debris in attic runs. The rotary brush system loosens material from the duct walls; the negative-air machine pulls it out before it escapes into your home.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Small commercial buildings along Josey Lane and in the Marsh Lane corridor often share the same aging infrastructure as residential properties. We scale our Nikro negative-air equipment to the building size and provide before-and-after video documentation for facility managers.

HVAC Duct Cleaning in Farmers Branch
HVAC Duct Cleaning in Farmers Branch addresses more than just visible dust at the registers. Because most local homes have unlined sheet-metal trunks in 140°F attics, we find seal failures that waste conditioned air year-round. Our process includes pressure testing and smoke-stick diagnostics to locate leaks that a basic cleaning misses entirely. Full HVAC duct cleaning with sealing runs $500 – $850 in Farmers Branch, depending on system accessibility and the extent of mastic sealing required at plenums and branch collars.
Supply Duct Cleaning and Sealing
Supply ducts push cooled air into your rooms. When the plenum isn’t sealed, 140°F attic air mixes with 55°F conditioned air every time the compressor runs. We clean with rotary brushes and HEPA extraction, then seal with mastic – not tape, which fails in attic heat. The result is air that actually reaches your vents at the temperature your thermostat called for.
Return Duct Inspection and Cleaning
Return ducts pull air back to the handler. In Farmers Branch, these are where we find the heaviest pollen accumulation and the most rodent intrusion. Our video inspection shows you the blockage before we touch it. Without this step, homeowners often replace air handlers that were never the problem.
Trusted Brands We Service in Farmers Branch
Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary brush systems, Nikro negative-air machines, and filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Abatement Technologies. These are the same tools commercial crews use, not hardware-store gear. For Farmers Branch homeowners, this means we stock parts and filters locally and can source Honeywell and Aprilaire media replacements without the two-week wait you’ll get ordering online. Our technicians explain what each piece of equipment does and why it matters for your specific system before starting work.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Farmers Branch Homes
- Unsealed plenums in original 1960s – 70s systems. On the east side of Farmers Branch, original sheet-metal trunks were often installed with no seal at the plenum connection. Superheated attic air mixes straight into conditioned supply every summer, and the first hot week of June is when homeowners finally notice.
- Disconnected or crushed flex-duct additions. Piecemeal HVAC replacements over the decades leave flex runs that sag, get stepped on by service crews, or pull loose entirely. A vacuum-only cleaning never finds these breaks; our video inspection does.
- Rodent intrusion and pollen packing in returns. Decades of oak, cedar, and ragweed pollen surges fill return ducts, and rodent activity is common in unlined metal systems. Without camera verification, this gets misdiagnosed as an air-handler failure.
- Mold and mildew in degraded flex duct. Farmers Branch’s humid summers and 140°F attic temperatures break down flex-duct liners over time. We find microbial growth in additions that were installed 15 – 20 years ago and are now past their service life.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Farmers Branch
Yes, and in Farmers Branch it’s often essential. Original unlined sheet-metal ducts from the 1960s and 1970s accumulate decades of pollen, rodent debris, and construction dust that newer flex-duct systems simply don’t have time to build up. Cleaning removes this material, but the real value is in what we find during the process: unsealed plenums, disconnected branch lines, and crushed flex additions that are wasting your energy every month. Call (361) 326-5060 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
The first hot week of June exposes plenum seal failures that mild May weather hides. In original Farmers Branch ranches on the east side, we regularly find attic duct runs with no seal at the plenum, so 140°F attic air mixes straight into your 55°F conditioned supply. Your air handler works fine; the cooled air never reaches your rooms. We diagnose this with smoke-stick testing, clean the system with negative-pressure HEPA extraction, and mastic-seal the leaks. Call (361) 326-5060 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
We do both, and in Farmers Branch the sealing is often the fix that matters. Cleaning removes debris; sealing stops the energy waste. We use mastic compound at plenums and branch collars, which survives 140°F attic heat indefinitely, unlike tape. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers both the cleaning and the sealing work. Call (361) 326-5060 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
We start every job with a video inspection that you watch with the technician. You’ll see the debris, the disconnected runs, or the unsealed plenum before we touch it. After cleaning, we run the camera again so you see the difference. Our process uses rotary brush agitation and negative-pressure HEPA extraction on the full duct run, not just a shop vac at the register. Call (361) 326-5060 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
If your home is a 1950s – 1980s Farmers Branch ranch, the dryer vent likely shares the same aging infrastructure as your ducts and may run through the same hot attic space. We offer dryer vent cleaning as a separate service and can bundle it with your duct cleaning for efficiency. A clogged dryer vent is a genuine fire hazard in older homes with lint accumulation. Call (361) 326-5060 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
