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.
Fast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Krum
Air duct cleaning in Krum, TX typically runs $350 – $650 for a full residential system and $800 – $2,400 for commercial buildings, with most jobs scheduled within a few business days. We’re the Air Duct Cleaning crew that serves Krum from our Dallas-Fort Worth dispatch office, and we know the difference between a Denton County duct system and one anywhere else in North Texas. When you live near the grain elevators off Massey Road or in one of the new subdivisions creeping toward FM 1173, your ducts face a specific mix of windblown field dust, construction debris, and the kind of grit that only Tornado Alley delivers.
We’ve cleaned ducts in the older ranch homes south of downtown Krum with their original flexible ductwork from the 1980s, and we’ve pulled construction waste from brand-new builds near Liberty Park where the drywall dust hadn’t settled before the homeowners moved in. Roy Castellanos and our team don’t quote one price over the phone and hand you another when the van arrives. We write it down before we start, and we back it with the 365-Day Done Right Promise. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Krum’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been in business since 2004 as part of the Garrison Partners family, and that track record matters in a town where word still travels at the feed store and the post office. Krum homeowners aren’t looking for the cheapest coupon in the mailbox; they’re looking for a crew that shows up uniformed, background-checked, and ready to explain what they’re doing before they pull the first vent cover.
Our phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No voicemail loops, no “leave a message and we’ll call back Monday.” When you’re staring at a vent that’s blowing visible dust after a spring storm, that matters.
We know Krum’s housing patterns: the acreage properties with well water and septic systems where flexible ductwork has sagged in the attic for forty years, and the tight new construction where energy-efficient sealing has trapped construction debris inside. That local knowledge changes how we approach the job, what equipment we bring, and what we expect to find.
Every technician works under The Garrison Code: arrive inside the quoted window, price in writing, complete the job by the book, leave the site clean. No exceptions.
HVAC Duct Cleaning in Krum
HVAC Duct Cleaning in Krum means pulling the entire forced-air system apart at its access points and removing the accumulated debris that’s restricting airflow and recirculating through your living space. In Krum specifically, this often means dealing with that fine, gritty dust from open farmland that settles heavier than typical household dust, plus the granules from asphalt shingles that find their way into attic duct runs after spring storms. A typical residential HVAC duct cleaning in Krum runs $350 – $650 for a full system, while commercial buildings start around $800 and can reach $2,400 depending on square footage and system complexity.
Rotary Brush and Negative-Air Methods
We use Rotobrush rotary brush systems for the main trunk lines and branch ducts, which physically agitates debris off the duct walls, paired with Nikro negative-air machines that maintain suction so nothing escapes into your home. For Krum’s older flexible ductwork, we adjust the brush speed to avoid damaging the fragile lining; for new metal duct systems, we can run more aggressive passes.
Post-Cleaning Verification
After the agitation and extraction, we run a video inspection through the system so you see the before and after with your own eyes. In Krum, where construction debris in new builds and storm-introduced grit in older homes create distinctly different contamination patterns, this visual proof matters more than a verbal assurance.
Vent Cleaning in Krum
Vent Cleaning in Krum targets the supply and return registers you see on your walls, floors, and ceilings, plus the short duct runs immediately behind them where dust and debris first accumulate. This is the work that most homeowners notice first: the dark ring around the vent cover, the musty smell when the system kicks on, the reduced airflow in one room. A standard vent cleaning service in Krum typically runs $150 – $300 as a standalone job, though most homeowners bundle it with full system cleaning for better value.
Supply vs. Return Vent Focus
Supply vents push conditioned air into your rooms and tend to collect the lighter, airborne dust that makes it through your filter. Return vents pull air back to the unit and often harbor the heavier debris: pet hair, cooking grease particles, and in Krum’s rural properties, that distinctive field dust that settles in thick layers.
Register Restoration and Sealing Check
We remove each register, clean it properly rather than just vacuuming around it, and check the boot connection to the duct behind it. In Krum’s newer subdivisions, we’ve found boots that were never fully sealed during construction, leaking conditioned air into the wall cavity and pulling attic dust back into the system.
Trusted Brands We Service in Krum
Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary systems, Nikro negative-air machines, and filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman. We don’t show up with a shop vacuum and a brush from the hardware store. For Krum homeowners, this means we can source replacement media and filtration upgrades without waiting on out-of-state shipping. If your system needs a Honeywell media filter upgrade or an Aprilaire whole-house air cleaner installed while we’re already in the ductwork, we stock the components and can price it in writing on the spot. The same professional-grade equipment we use for commercial jobs in Denton County runs on your Krum home system, and we explain what each piece does while we’re working.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Krum Homes
- Storm-debris intrusion in attic ducts. Krum’s position in Tornado Alley means spring storms don’t just rattle windows; they damage roof vents and soffit screens, creating entry points for windblown grit and shingle granules that settle in attic duct runs.
- Construction debris in new subdivision homes. Krum’s rapid growth as a bedroom community has produced tight, energy-efficient homes where drywall dust, wood scraps, and insulation fragments were never fully cleaned from the duct system before occupancy.
- Sagging flexible ductwork in pre-1990 rural homes. The older acreage properties around Krum often still run original flexible duct that has drooped between supports, creating low spots where dust and moisture collect into dense, airflow-blocking mats.
- Well-water mineral dust and higher indoor humidity. Krum homes on well systems without municipal water treatment can experience slightly higher indoor humidity levels, which binds dust to duct walls more stubbornly than in drier environments.

Yes, we work across all of Krum, from the established homes near downtown to the new builds off FM 1173 and the acreage properties south of town toward the Wise County line. The duct conditions differ significantly between these areas, and we adjust our approach accordingly.
We don’t advertise emergency dispatch for duct cleaning because it’s a scheduled maintenance service, not an urgent repair. However, our phones are answered by a live person 24/7, and if you’re dealing with post-storm debris intrusion or a system that’s completely blocked, we’ll prioritize your scheduling and get a crew out as soon as operationally possible.
Krum pricing sits in the same range as Denton, typically $350 – $650 for residential full-system cleaning. Fort Worth metro rates can run slightly higher due to traffic and parking constraints that don’t apply here. We quote your specific Krum home based on its system, not its ZIP code.
If any part of our duct cleaning work fails within one full year, Hollis returns and makes it right at no charge, including a free second visit. This is written on every job, not a verbal assurance. If debris returns because we missed an access point, or if a seal we disturbed starts leaking, we fix it. Call (361) 326-5060 to schedule your free estimate and get your written guarantee in hand.
