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 Hunters Creek
Air duct cleaning in Hunters Creek, FL typically runs $350 – $650 for a full residential system and $800 – $2,400 for commercial jobs, with most homes completed in a single visit. We dispatch crews to Hunters Creek from our Miami office, and our Air Duct Cleaning team knows the tight turns of Hunter’s Creek Boulevard and the parking constraints at Falcons Trace by heart. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
We’ve been serving Hunters Creek since 2004 as part of the Garrison Partners family, and we’ve learned that duct cleaning here isn’t a cookie-cutter job. The master-planned subdivisions built in the 1980s and 1990s, the shared vent stacks in condo clusters, and the afternoon thunderstorms that knock out power and restart HVAC systems coated in mold spores, all change what “clean ducts” actually means for your home.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Hunters Creek’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Our reputation in Hunters Creek was built on showing up inside the window and pricing the job in writing before we touch anything. That discipline comes from The Garrison Standard, which every Hollis location follows, and it’s why homeowners in Hunters Creek call us back for annual ductwork cleaning.
We answer our phones live, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No voicemail loops, no callback queues, no waiting until Monday when your AC is blowing musty air after Saturday’s storm.
Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. You know who is walking into your home before they arrive, and they arrive with professional-grade equipment: Rotobrush rotary brush systems for agitation, Nikro negative-air machines for source removal, and filtration products from Honeywell and Aprilaire. These are the same tools commercial crews use, not hardware-store gear.
Every job carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If the work fails within a year, we return and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. That promise is backed by Roy Castellanos and our local operation, not buried in fine print.
Air Duct Repair in Hunters Creek
Air Duct Repair in Hunters Creek often starts with a complaint that doesn’t sound like “broken ducts” at all: a musty smell when the system kicks on, rooms that won’t cool evenly, or dust blowing from registers after every power outage. Because most Hunters Creek homes were built in the 1980s and 1990s with builder-grade flexible ductwork, the real problem is frequently crushed, disconnected, or deteriorated flex runs hiding in the attic, not just dirty vents. A typical air duct repair in Hunters Creek runs $200 – $550 for flex run replacement or reconnection, and $400 – $900 when we add full duct sealing with mastic to stop leaks at joints and plenum connections.
Crushed and Disconnected Flex Runs
Original flex ductwork in Hunters Creek’s tract homes was often routed through tight attic spaces with sharp elbows that collapse over decades of heat cycling. We inspect with a camera first, then replace or reroute the damaged section and support it properly so it stays open.
Shared Stack and Plenum Repairs
In Hunters Creek’s condo and apartment clusters, individual unit repairs mean nothing if the common plenum or dryer vent stack is leaking. We coordinate with property management to inspect and seal these shared systems so your clean ducts stay clean.
Ductwork Cleaning in Hunters Creek
Ductwork Cleaning in Hunters Creek requires more than vacuuming registers and calling it done. The subtropical humidity, pollen from nearby Lake Tohopekaliga wetlands, and post-storm HVAC restarts mean mold and mildew are often the primary target, not just household dust. A typical residential ductwork cleaning in Hunters Creek runs $350 – $650 for a full system with supply and return ducts, air handler, and blower motor. Commercial systems start around $800 and scale based on square footage and access complexity.
Source Removal with Negative Pressure
We use Nikro negative-air machines to create suction throughout the duct system while Rotobrush agitation tools loosen debris from duct walls. This is source removal, not surface wiping. The debris is captured in HEPA filtration, not redistributed through your home.
Post-Cleaning Verification
After ductwork cleaning, we run a video inspection so you see the before and after. In Hunters Creek’s older homes, we also check for new leaks created when decades-old flex shifts during cleaning. If we find them, we show you and price the repair in writing before proceeding.
Trusted Brands We Service in Hunters Creek
We stock parts and filtration media for the equipment that actually runs in Hunters Creek homes: Honeywell electronic air cleaners and media filters, Aprilaire whole-home purifiers and replacement cabinets, Guardsman UV systems for mold control, and Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration for our cleaning rigs. We don’t have to order and wait. If your system needs a media swap or UV bulb replacement during the cleaning visit, we handle it then. Fast turnaround matters in Hunters Creek, where humidity doesn’t pause for shipping delays.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Hunters Creek Homes
- Musty odors after summer storms. Afternoon thunderstorms trip breakers and restart HVAC systems, blowing accumulated mold spores and dust into living spaces. The odor isn’t “just Florida” – it’s active microbial growth in the ductwork that source removal can eliminate.
- Crushed original flex in attics. Builder-grade flexible ductwork from the 1980s and 1990s collapses at sharp elbows and sagging runs, creating dead zones where debris collects and moisture pools. Vacuuming the registers misses this entirely.
- Shared dryer vent stacks in condos and apartments. Technicians clean individual units but ignore the common stack, so lint and moisture from neighboring units continue circulating back into your space. We inspect and coordinate stack cleaning with property management.
- Inadequate equipment access in dense subdivisions. Tightly packed homes with restricted parking force some crews to set up short, reducing the negative pressure needed for proper source removal. We plan access in advance and bring portable Nikro units when truck-mount rigs won’t fit.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Hunters Creek
That smell is mold and mildew spores being blown from damp ductwork into your living space when the system powers back on after a storm outage. In Hunters Creek, the combination of high humidity, original 1980s – 90s flex ductwork with poor drainage, and rapid temperature swings after power restoration creates ideal conditions for microbial growth. We locate the source with camera inspection, remove it with negative-pressure HEPA extraction, and treat or replace affected flex runs. Call (361) 326-5060 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
Yes, and we coordinate with your property management to inspect the full stack, not just your unit’s connection. Cleaning only the individual tap leaves lint and moisture in the common vertical run, which backs up into neighboring units and creates fire hazards. Our stack cleaning includes the full vertical run from roof cap to utility closet, with before-and-after photos for the HOA. Call (361) 326-5060 to schedule – we handle the management coordination.
Most 1990s Hunters Creek homes with original flex ductwork need at least some repair. The flex degrades, collapses at elbows, and disconnects at plenum connections after three decades of heat cycling and humidity exposure. Cleaning alone won’t fix airflow restrictions from crushed runs or leaks that suck attic dust into the system. We camera-inspect first and show you what we find before pricing any repair. Call (361) 326-5060 – we’ll check your system’s condition and give you a written price for both cleaning and any needed repair.
We plan access before we dispatch. For dense subdivisions like Falcons Trace with narrow streets and limited driveway space, we confirm parking arrangements when you book and bring portable Nikro negative-air units if our truck-mount rig won’t fit. The suction power and HEPA filtration are the same; the setup adapts to your street. We also carry extra hose length for homes with attic access through interior closets rather than exterior hatches. Call (361) 326-5060 and we’ll ask about your home’s access points when we schedule.
Yes, most Hunters Creek homeowners benefit from duct cleaning every 2 – 3 years rather than the 4 – 5 year interval common in drier climates. The subtropical humidity feeds mold growth inside ductwork, and pollen from Lake Tohopekaliga wetlands enters through intake vents and accumulates in the system. If you run your AC heavily from April through October, or if anyone in your home has allergies, annual inspection and cleaning every 2 years is the smarter interval. Call (361) 326-5060 – we’ll assess your system and recommend a schedule based on your home’s age, usage, and any musty odors or allergy symptoms you’ve noticed.
