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 Pine Hills
Air duct cleaning in Pine Hills typically runs $350 – $650 for a full residential system, and most jobs are scheduled within a few days of your call. If you live in one of the mid-century ranches off Silver Star Road or the rental duplexes near Pine Hills Road, your ductwork is likely original galvanized or early-flex from the 1950s – 1970s, and that aging infrastructure is exactly why source removal matters here. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free written estimate before any work starts.
We’ve been dispatching crews to Pine Hills from our Miami office long enough to know the local pattern: concrete-block and wood-frame ranches with ducts baking in 140°F attics, brittle insulation crumbling into the airstream, and rodent damage from the wooded lots that back up to so many properties. Our technicians arrive uniformed, background-checked, and equipped with Rotobrush rotary systems and Nikro negative-air machines, the same tools commercial crews use. We price every job in writing before we touch your system, and every Hollis job carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Pine Hills’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Pine Hills homeowners call us back because we show up inside the window and leave the site clean. That’s The Garrison Standard, and it’s written into how every independently owned Hollis location operates. Roy Castellanos built this operation on the principle that a homeowner should never have to negotiate a price after the technician is already inside.
Our reviews from Pine Hills customers consistently mention the written price and the camera inspection. One homeowner off Clarcona Road told us the previous company quoted $89 over the phone and demanded $600 at the door. We don’t work that way. The price we write down before work starts is the price you pay.
Response time to Pine Hills is typically 2 – 4 business days for standard scheduling, with dispatch coordinated from our Miami office. We’re not going to promise same-day service because duct cleaning is a scheduled, methodical job, not an emergency dispatch. What we will promise is that we’ll arrive when we said we would, run a full video inspection, and show you what we found before we clean a thing.
Local knowledge matters in Pine Hills because the housing stock is specific. We know to check for rodent-chewed flex duct behind the water heater closet, for galvanized joints that have cracked from decades of thermal cycling, and for mold growth in return plenums where humidity has pooled. That expertise comes from doing this work in Pine Hills, not from a training manual.
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Pine Hills
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Pine Hills cover the complete removal of dust, debris, mold, and biological buildup from your supply and return ductwork, using negative-air containment and rotary brush agitation to pull contamination out rather than push it deeper into your home. For a typical Pine Hills ranch home with 8 – 12 vents, full residential cleaning runs $350 – $550; larger homes or systems with heavy contamination can reach $650. We recommend this service every 3 – 5 years for Pine Hills’ aging galvanized and early-flex ducts, though homes backing to wooded lots with rodent pressure may need more frequent inspection.
Residential Duct Cleaning
Our residential crew seals each vent, puts the system under negative pressure with a Nikro machine, and uses a Rotobrush rotary head to knock debris loose from the duct walls. We finish with a video inspection so you see the before and after. Most Pine Hills ranches take 3 – 4 hours.

Commercial and Multi-Family Cleaning
Small apartment complexes and rental duplexes in Pine Hills often go decades without inspection because the area is unincorporated with no mandatory duct-cleaning code. We clean common trunk lines, individual unit branches, and dryer vent risers, with pricing scaled to system size.

HVAC Duct Cleaning in Pine Hills
HVAC Duct Cleaning in Pine Hills addresses the entire forced-air system, including the supply plenum, return air pathways, evaporator coil cabinet, and blower compartment, not just the visible vent covers. In Pine Hills’ climate, where air conditioning runs eight months a year and attic temperatures hit 140°F, mold and mildew colonize coil cabinets and blower housings as readily as they do the ducts themselves. A full HVAC duct cleaning for a Pine Hills home typically runs $450 – $650, with the higher end covering systems that need coil and blower attention.
Full System Cleaning
We clean every component that moves air: supply ducts, return ducts, main trunk lines, plenums, and the air handler interior. In Pine Hills slab homes, the return plenum is often a panned joist space in the attic, exactly where brittle insulation and rodent debris collect. We pull it all.
Video Inspection
Before and after video is standard on every Hollis job. Our techs run a lighted camera through the main trunk and branch runs, and we show you the footage. In Pine Hills, we regularly find cracked galvanized joints, chewed flex duct, and black mold on the supply side that the homeowner never suspected.
Trusted Brands We Service in Pine Hills
We clean systems connected to every major HVAC brand, and we stock filtration upgrades from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman for Pine Hills customers who want better particle capture after the ducts are clean. Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary brush systems for mechanical agitation, Nikro negative-air machines for containment, and Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration for post-cleaning air scrubbing. If your Pine Hills home needs a media filter upgrade or a UV germicidal light in the air handler, we carry the parts and install them during the same visit. No waiting on shipping, no return trips.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Pine Hills Homes
- Brittle, baked insulation in attic ducts. Pine Hills attics regularly hit 140°F, and the original fiberglass wrap on 1950s – 70s galvanized ducts turns to powder. We find it crumbling into the airstream, visible as fine gray dust on vent registers.
- Rodent-chewed flex duct behind walls. Many Pine Hills homes back to wooded lots. Squirrels and rats chew through flex duct to nest, creating breaches that dump attic air and insulation debris straight into living spaces. The homeowner usually notices a musty smell first.
- Cracked galvanized joints leaking attic air. Decades of thermal expansion and contraction in Pine Hills’ unconditioned attics crack the original metal ductwork at seams and elbows. Your HVAC system pulls 140°F attic air through those gaps, driving up electric bills and spreading fiberglass particles.
- Mold and mildew in return plenums after summer storms. Pine Hills’ heavy thunderstorms and occasional hurricane-season power outages can interrupt AC operation just long enough for humidity to spike in the ductwork. The return side, where moisture collects, is where we most often find active mold growth.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Pine Hills, FL
A typical residential air duct cleaning in Pine Hills runs $350 – $550 for a full system with 8 – 12 vents. Larger homes, heavy contamination, or systems requiring coil and blower cleaning reach $450 – $650. Commercial and multi-family jobs are priced by system size, typically starting around $600 for small duplex common trunks.
What moves the price: vent count, duct material (galvanized takes longer than flex), accessibility (crawl space vs. attic), contamination level, and whether we find rodent damage that needs sealing before cleaning. We do not quote per-vent pricing. We do not bait with a low phone price and inflate at the door. We inspect, we write the price down, and that number does not move.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Pine Hills
Every 3 – 5 years for most Pine Hills homes with original galvanized or early-flex ductwork, though annual camera inspection is wise if you back up to wooded lots with rodent activity. The 140°F attic temperatures and brittle insulation in this housing stock mean debris loads faster than in newer subdivisions. Call (361) 326-5060 and we’ll inspect at no charge to set your interval.
Heavy thunderstorms and hurricane-season power outages interrupt AC operation long enough for humidity to spike inside the ductwork, especially in return plenums where moisture collects. Pine Hills’ humid subtropical climate keeps those ducts damp for days if the system doesn’t restart promptly. Our full HVAC duct cleaning includes coil and blower cabinet treatment to eliminate the source of the odor, not just mask it.
No. Pine Hills is unincorporated Orange County, with no municipal duct-cleaning code forcing inspection at sale or renovation. That means rental duplexes and small apartment complexes can go decades without source removal. We recommend voluntary inspection, especially before buying or renting older Pine Hills properties.
The combination of wooded lots, open land, and aging flex duct creates perfect conditions for squirrel and rat intrusion. Once they chew through, they nest in the insulation. We find this constantly in Pine Hills homes off Silver Star Road and Clarcona Road. Our video inspection catches it before the cleanup gets expensive.
Our tech arrives in a marked van, uniformed and background-checked, seals all vents, and puts the system under negative pressure with a Nikro machine. We agitate the duct walls with a Rotobrush rotary head, extract the debris, run a post-cleaning video inspection, and leave the site clean. The whole process takes 3 – 4 hours for a typical Pine Hills ranch. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free written estimate.
