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 Lawrenceville
Air duct cleaning in Lawrenceville, GA typically runs $350 – $650 for a full residential system and is usually completed in a single visit. Most Lawrenceville homes built in the 1990s and 2000s need more than a surface cleaning, their original flex duct in 130°F attics is often failing, so we price every job in writing and run a camera inspection before we start.
We’ve worked the subdivisions off GA-316 from Sugarloaf to the Gwinnett County corridors long enough to know what the housing stock looks like inside the walls. Our crews dispatch from the Atlanta office and carry Rotobrush rotary systems, Nikro negative-air machines, and HEPA filtration rated for the pollen loads and humidity that define Gwinnett County summers. When you call (361) 326-5060, a live person answers, and we schedule you inside a window we actually keep.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Lawrenceville’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been in business since 2004 as part of the Garrison Partners family, and our Air Duct Cleaning in Lawrenceville crews have handled the specific failure patterns of this market for years. Lawrenceville homeowners know the difference between a crew that shows up with a shop vac and one that brings negative-pressure containment, camera verification, and a written 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and they work to The Garrison Standard: arrive inside the quoted window, price in writing before touching equipment, complete the job by the book, and leave the site clean. No estimates that balloon once we’re inside. No callbacks that go to voicemail. Phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
We know the local roads, the subdivision layouts, and the parking restrictions at multi-unit properties near downtown and along Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road. That local knowledge means we show up with the right equipment for your specific building type, not a one-size-fits-all setup that quits at the first tight access point.
Air Duct Repair in Lawrenceville
Air Duct Repair in Lawrenceville is most often needed when the original flex duct in 1990s – 2000s subdivisions has deteriorated past the point where cleaning alone restores airflow. We see this routinely in Sugarloaf and the GA-316 corridor tracts, where attic temperatures exceed 130°F and the plastic vapor barrier on flex duct becomes brittle, cracks, and sheds into the airstream. Repair costs in Lawrenceville typically run $400 – $900 for sectional replacement of damaged trunk lines or reconnection of separated runs, with full system replacement ranging $2,500 – $5,500 depending on home size and attic accessibility.
When Repair Beats Replacement
Isolated damage, a single crushed run from a service technician stepping through the ceiling, or a disconnected collar at the plenum, these are fixable in an afternoon. We cut out the damaged section, install new flex or rigid duct with proper mastic sealing, and test static pressure before we leave. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers our repair work: if it fails within a year, we return at no charge.
Camera Inspection Before Any Cutting
We run a video scope through every accessible run before quoting repair work. In Lawrenceville’s older subdivisions, we’ve found that what looks like one bad section from the register end is often systemic vapor-barrier failure across the entire attic trunk. The camera saves you from paying for a repair that’ll need redoing in six months.
Ductwork Cleaning in Lawrenceville
Ductwork Cleaning in Lawrenceville means source removal using negative-air methods and rotary brush agitation, not a vacuum wand waved at the register. A typical residential system in Lawrenceville runs $350 – $650, with commercial or larger homes up to $850 – $1,200. We price per system, not per vent, and that price is written down before we start.
Negative-Air Source Removal
We attach a Nikro negative-air machine at the air handler to create suction through the entire duct system, then run Rotobrush agitation tools through each supply and return run to dislodge debris. The debris travels to our HEPA-filtered collection unit, not your living room. This is the method NADCA recognizes for actual cleaning, not just register wiping.
Moisture and Mold Assessment
Lawrenceville’s humid subtropical climate means ductwork in unconditioned attics and crawlspaces collects condensation year-round. We inspect for mold growth, standing water, and pest intrusion during every cleaning. If we find active mold, we document it with photos and explain your options, remediation before cleaning, or cleaning with antimicrobial treatment where appropriate.
Trusted Brands We Service in Lawrenceville
Our Air Duct Cleaning crews carry professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush and Nikro, and we stock filtration products from Aprilaire, Abatement Technologies, and Guardsman for Lawrenceville customers who need upgraded protection after cleaning. These aren’t hardware-store tools. A Rotobrush rotary system runs a spinning brush through rectangular or round duct at controlled speed, while the Nikro negative-air unit maintains constant suction so dislodged debris doesn’t escape into your home. For homeowners in Lawrenceville’s pollen-heavy Gwinnett County environment, we can install Aprilaire media filters or Guardsman UV treatment systems to reduce the load on newly cleaned ductwork. Parts and filters are stocked for fast turnaround, not a two-week order delay.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Lawrenceville Homes
- Brittle flex duct in Sugarloaf and GA-316 corridor attics. The 130°F attic heat common to Lawrenceville’s 1990s – 2000s subdivisions turns the plastic vapor barrier on original flex duct into a flaking mess. Homeowners find gray plastic debris on supply registers and assume it’s dust. Cleaning without camera inspection misses the root cause, and the debris returns within weeks.
- Shared dryer vent stacks in multi-unit buildings. Dense Lawrenceville apartment and condo properties often route dryer vents through a common vertical stack. A single lint-clogged riser backs up multiple units, but crews that only clean the unit-side flex hose leave the real blockage untouched. We scope the full stack where accessible.
- Condensation and mold in crawlspace duct. Lawrenceville’s red-clay soil holds moisture, and crawlspaces under ranch homes near historic downtown stay humid year-round. Flexible duct sags in the damp, collects water, and grows mold that blows spores through every cycle of the air handler.
- Restricted equipment access at multi-unit properties. Tight parking and no exterior staging at Lawrenceville townhome complexes lead some crews to skip trailer-mounted HEPA and negative-pressure setups. They bring a portable unit and call it done. We figure out the access and bring the right equipment, or we tell you upfront if the building configuration won’t allow proper source removal.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Lawrenceville, GA
A typical residential duct cleaning in Lawrenceville runs $350 – $650 for a full system, including supply and return runs, main trunk lines, and the air handler cabinet. Larger homes or systems with more than 20 runs may reach $750 – $950. Commercial properties start around $800 and scale with square footage and system complexity. Dryer vent cleaning adds $120 – $200 when bundled with duct cleaning, $150 – $250 as a standalone service.
What moves the price: system accessibility (crawlspace vs. attic), the number of supply and return registers, whether we find mold or pest damage requiring remediation before cleaning, and whether you need video inspection documentation for a property sale or insurance claim. We do not quote per-vent teaser prices that triple at the door. The price is written down before we touch your system, and it does not move.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Lawrenceville
The original flex duct in these 1990s – 2000s subdivisions has reached end of service life after baking in 130°F attics for two decades. The plastic vapor barrier flakes off into the airstream, and cleaning removes the debris but doesn’t restore the duct’s integrity. We run a camera inspection during every Lawrenceville cleaning to identify failing runs and document them for your replacement bid. Call (361) 326-5060 if you’re seeing gray plastic flakes on your registers.
Yes, but we assess access before quoting. Shared dryer vent stacks in Lawrenceville multi-unit buildings require scoping the full riser, not just the unit-side flex hose. We coordinate with property management for roof or utility-room access to the main stack, and we bring compact negative-air units when trailer-mounted equipment won’t fit. If the building configuration genuinely prevents NADCA-standard source removal, we’ll tell you upfront rather than perform a surface wipe and charge full price.
Lawrenceville’s humid subtropical climate keeps attic and crawlspace ductwork wet for months. Condensation forms on the cool metal or flex duct surface, especially in unconditioned spaces, and that moisture supports mold growth and pest nesting. We inspect for these conditions during every cleaning and document what we find. Homes near the historic downtown with crawlspace duct are particularly vulnerable due to the moisture-retaining red-clay soil.
Yes. NADCA Standard 2021 requires source removal through mechanical agitation and containment, not just vacuuming at the register. On a Lawrenceville job, that means negative-air connection at the air handler, rotary brush agitation through each run, HEPA filtration on the collection unit, and protective coverings on floors and furnishings. We also run a post-cleaning camera inspection on request. The 365-Day Done Right Promise backs our compliance: if the work fails, we return at no charge.
Every 3 – 5 years for most Lawrenceville homes, sooner if you have pets, allergies, or visible debris at registers. Gwinnett County’s red-clay pollen seasons, March through May and September through October, load ducts heavily, and the near year-round AC runtime here pulls that pollen deep into the system. Homes in the Sugarloaf and GA-316 corridor subdivisions with original flex duct should schedule cleaning with camera inspection to assess whether replacement is the smarter next step. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate.
