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.

Air duct cleaning in Rancho Murieta typically runs $350 – $650 for a full residential system, and our crews schedule most jobs within a week of your call. We’re familiar with the gate-access protocols at Rancho Murieta’s single entrance, and we coordinate arrival times with security so you don’t have to wait at the call box.

Rancho Murieta’s planned community layout means every home here shares certain traits: large lots, aging flexible ductwork in many properties, and strict CC&Rs that govern how work gets done on your property. We’ve cleaned ducts in the ranch-style homes near Murieta Parkway, the custom builds off Stonehouse Road, and the two-story properties throughout the Villages. The hot, dry summers here push HVAC systems hard for months straight, and when wildfire smoke drifts in from the Sierra foothills, those particles don’t stay outside. They find their way into your return ducts, through your filter, and back into your living space.
Our Air Duct Cleaning team arrives with contained, professional-grade equipment designed for HOA-compliant service. No exterior exhaust vents left running. No visible mess left behind. That’s how we work in Rancho Murieta.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Rancho Murieta’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been in business since 2004 as part of the Garrison Partners family, and our track record predates most competitors you’ll find online. In Rancho Murieta specifically, homeowners recognize our trucks because we’ve been scheduling through the front gate for years, not months.
Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed on every job. You know who’s arriving before they pull up. The Garrison Code requires it: arrive inside the quoted window, price in writing before touching anything, complete the job by the book, leave the site clean. No exceptions.
Phones are answered by a live person, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No voicemail loops, no callback queues, no waiting until Monday when your ducts are blowing dust on a Saturday afternoon.
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’s not a slogan. It’s printed on every invoice.
Ductwork Cleaning in Rancho Murieta
Ductwork Cleaning in Rancho Murieta addresses the accumulated dust, pollen, and debris that builds up in your home’s supply and return lines over years of continuous HVAC use. Most Rancho Murieta homes were built between the 1970s and 2000s, and many still run original flexible ductwork that sags, tears, and traps particles where rigid metal wouldn’t. A typical full residential ductwork cleaning here runs $350 – $650, with larger custom homes or properties with extensive attic runs toward the higher end.
Rotary Brush Method
We deploy Rotobrush rotary brush systems for the main trunk lines, spinning a powered brush through each duct to dislodge buildup that vacuum suction alone won’t touch. The brush head is sized to your duct diameter, and we run it the full length of every accessible line. This is the standard approach for most Rancho Murieta homes with standard flexible or metal ductwork.
Negative-Air Containment
For properties with sensitive finishes or where CC&R compliance matters, we use Nikro negative-air machines that create suction at the vent while we agitate debris upstream. Nothing escapes into your living space. Nothing vents visibly outside. This matters in Rancho Murieta, where exterior modifications and visible equipment are restricted by community standards.
Air Duct Inspection in Rancho Murieta
Air Duct Inspection in Rancho Murieta gives you a clear picture of what’s inside your system before you decide on cleaning, repair, or replacement. We feed a high-resolution video camera through your ductwork, recording the condition of every trunk line, branch, and connection point. A typical video inspection here runs $150 – $250, and we apply that fee toward your cleaning if you proceed within 30 days. Rancho Murieta’s aging housing stock makes this especially worthwhile; we’ve found collapsed flexible ducts, disconnected boots, and in some pre-1980s homes, asbestos-containing insulation that requires specialized handling.
What the Camera Reveals
The inspection shows you dust depth, mold growth, duct damage, and construction debris left from original build-out. In Rancho Murieta’s attic ductwork, we regularly see sweat-related dust caking where summer heat meets air-conditioned metal. That combination of moisture and debris creates conditions you want to catch early.
Inspection Reports for Your Records
We provide timestamped video files and a written summary. If you’re selling your Rancho Murieta home or addressing a home warranty claim, this documentation satisfies most inspection contingencies. The report also becomes your baseline for future maintenance planning.
Trusted Brands We Service in Rancho Murieta
We stock and service filtration and cleaning equipment from Aprilaire, Abatement Technologies, and Guardsman, with replacement parts available for Rancho Murieta customers without multi-week wait times. Our Rotobrush rotary systems and Nikro negative-air machines are the same units commercial crews use in hospitals and schools, not hardware-store gear. When your system needs a new media filter, UV component, or sealing mastic, we carry the right specification rather than forcing a generic substitute. That means faster turnaround on repairs and maintenance, and equipment that performs to its rated standard rather than limping along with an ill-fitting part.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Rancho Murieta Homes
- Wildfire smoke infiltration. Seasonal fires in the Sierra foothills push fine particulate matter into Rancho Murieta’s outdoor air, and standard HVAC filters don’t catch the smallest particles. These lodge in duct corners and recirculate for months after the smoke clears.
- Sweating attic ducts. Rancho Murieta’s summer attic temperatures regularly exceed 140°F, while conditioned air runs at 55 – 60°F through metal trunk lines. That temperature differential causes condensation, which binds dust into a paste that mold spores colonize readily.
- Aging flexible ductwork collapse. Homes built in the 1970s and 1980s often have original fiberglass flex duct that has sagged, torn at seams, or collapsed entirely in attic runs. The damage restricts airflow and creates debris traps that standard cleaning can’t fully address without repair.
- Septic system air pressure imbalances. Because all Rancho Murieta homes operate on septic rather than sewer, bathroom exhaust and whole-house ventilation must be carefully balanced. Blocked or leaking ducts can create negative pressure that pulls septic gases through dried traps, a problem we check for during every inspection.
