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 North Richland Hills
Air duct cleaning in North Richland Hills typically runs $350 – $650 for a full residential system and $800 – $2,500 for commercial buildings, with most jobs completed in a single visit. Our crews dispatch from the Dallas-Fort Worth office and carry the tools to handle everything from 1970s ranch homes off Boulevard 26 to newer two-story builds in Iron Horse and Home Town. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
North Richland Hills sits in the heart of the DFW Metroplex, where summer heat indexes top 105°F for weeks and the area’s notorious spring and fall pollen bursts pull massive allergen loads into HVAC systems. Homes here run their air handlers 9 – 10 months a year, so duct cleaning in NRH is less about dust and more about pollen, mold from high humidity, and cooling-season efficiency. We’ve been working this market long enough to know the difference between a quick vacuum job and a proper clean that actually fixes airflow.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is North Richland Hills’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, founded in 2004 as part of the Garrison Partners family, built its reputation in Tarrant County by showing up inside the quoted window and pricing in writing before touching anything. Our North Richland Hills customers know the technician who arrives will be background-checked, uniformed, and carrying a written scope of work, not a sales pitch.
Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our Dallas-Fort Worth office, but the crews serving North Richland Hills live here and know the local housing stock. They understand that a home near the former airport flight path may have attic duct crush damage from decades of vibration, and that Boulevard 26 ranches often need containment protocols before agitation begins. That local knowledge saves time and prevents the kind of surprises that turn a straightforward job into a callback.
Every repair and cleaning is covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise. If the work fails within a year, Hollis returns and makes it right at no charge, including a free second visit. The price you sign off on before we start is the price on the invoice. No per-vent add-ons, no equipment charges that appear at the door.
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.
Residential Air Duct Cleaning in North Richland Hills
Residential Air Duct Cleaning in North Richland Hills addresses the specific problems this climate and housing stock create: pollen loading, mold from evaporator coil humidity, and decades of accumulation in original ductwork. A typical full-system residential clean in North Richland Hills runs $350 – $650, with video inspection included so you see what we found. Homes in Smithfield, Iron Horse, and the original Boulevard 26 corridor each present different challenges, and we price accordingly before any work begins.
Supply and Return Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts push conditioned air into your rooms; return ducts pull it back. In North Richland Hills, return ducts near ground-level registers collect the most pollen and pet dander, while supply ducts in older homes often show mold spotting on the insulation where humidity has condensed. We clean both sides of the loop, not just the easy reaches.
Full System Cleaning with Video Inspection
Our crews use Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines to agitate and extract buildup, then run a camera so you see the after. In NRH’s 1980s – 2010s subdivisions, we frequently find kinked flex runs at tight attic turns that a surface vacuum never reaches. The camera shows you the difference between cleaned and crushed.
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in North Richland Hills
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in North Richland Hills serves retail spaces, medical offices, restaurants, and light industrial facilities along major corridors like Davis Boulevard and Rufe Snow Drive. A typical commercial job in North Richland Hills runs $800 – $2,500 depending on system size and access, with larger facilities quoted after a walkthrough. We schedule around your operating hours to avoid disrupting business.
Restaurant and Retail HVAC Cleaning
Grease and particulate load in restaurant exhaust and supply systems exceeds residential standards by an order of magnitude. Our crews use commercial-grade negative-air equipment from Abatement Technologies to contain and extract without cross-contaminating dining or retail floors.
Office and Medical Duct Maintenance
Medical offices and professional buildings in North Richland Hills need documented cleaning intervals for liability and insurance purposes. We provide before-and-after photos, written scope documentation, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise on every commercial job.
Trusted Brands We Service in North Richland Hills
Hollis Air Duct Cleaning carries professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, and Abatement Technologies, plus filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman. We stock common fittings and replacement media for North Richland Hills customers, so when a clean reveals a crushed run or failed seal, we can often fix it same-day rather than ordering parts and rescheduling. That matters in July when your system is running fourteen hours straight and you can’t wait a week for a return trip.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in North Richland Hills Homes
- Asbestos-tape joints on 1970s Boulevard 26 ranches. Many original homes in this corridor have duct joints sealed with asbestos-containing tape or mastic. Our crews treat these as containment jobs, sealing register openings and working under negative pressure before any agitation begins. Aggressive brushing without containment releases fibers into the living space.
- Crushed flex runs in Iron Horse and Home Town subdivisions. Long flex duct at tight attic turns kinks over years of thermal cycling, choking airflow to back bedrooms and trapping buildup where a standard vacuum hose won’t reach. Camera inspection finds these; rotary brush agitation with negative-air extraction cleans and documents them.
- Attic duct crush damage near the former airport flight path. Decades of low-frequency vibration and pest intrusion have compressed or disconnected ductwork in older neighborhoods east of Boulevard 26. Surface cleaning of the trunk line misses the real problem entirely.
- Mold and mildew in evaporator coil plenums. North Richland Hills’s humid subtropical climate and 9 – 10 month cooling season create ideal conditions for biological growth on coil fins and surrounding insulation. Post-cooling-season cleaning addresses this before it spreads downstream into supply ducts.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in North Richland Hills
Many original 1970s homes in this corridor still have duct joints sealed with asbestos-containing tape or mastic, so our crews seal the register openings and work under negative pressure before any agitation begins. This containment protocol prevents fiber release into the living space. Call (361) 326-5060 if you’re unsure what your home has; we can inspect first.
Every 3 – 5 years for most North Richland Hills homes, sooner if you have pets, allergy sufferers, or visible mold. The mountain cedar, oak, and ragweed loads here are heavier than national averages, and the 9 – 10 month cooling season pushes that pollen deep into the system. Call (361) 326-5060 to discuss your household’s specific timing.
Crushed flex runs at attic turns, disconnected boots behind registers, and joints that have separated from the plenum. In Smithfield and similar 1980s – 1990s builds, we also find original duct tape that has dried and failed, creating leaks that waste conditioned air into the attic. The camera shows you exactly what we found and exactly what we fixed.
Cleaning removes buildup; sealing fixes the leaks that let that buildup back in and waste energy. In North Richland Hills’s older homes, we often find that the real problem is failed joints and crushed runs, not just dirty ducts. We price cleaning and sealing separately so you choose what your system actually needs, not what we want to sell.
Yes. We clean retail, restaurant, medical, and light commercial systems along Davis Boulevard, Rufe Snow Drive, and throughout the NRH business corridors. Commercial jobs are quoted after a walkthrough, scheduled around your hours, and documented with before-and-after photos for your records. Call (361) 326-5060 to set up a site visit.
