Call (361) 326-5060

We’ve been in this trade since 2004, and Tampa’s housing stock keeps us honest. The slab-on-grade construction, the 140°F attics, the humidity that never quits – these aren’t bullet points on a brochure, they’re what our crews walk into every day. Our Air Duct Cleaning team carries Rotobrush rotary systems and Nikro negative-air machines, the same tools commercial crews use, because Tampa ductwork demands more than a shop-vac and a prayer.

Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Tampa’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company

We’re part of the Garrison Partners family, and every Hollis location runs on The Garrison Standard: written price, written guarantee, site left clean. That standard matters in Tampa, where homeowners have seen too many low-quote crews show up with a coupon, find “problems” at the door, and leave the system worse than they found it.

Our 365-Day Done Right Promise covers every job in writing. If the work fails within a year, we come back and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. No negotiation, no runaround.

Phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Not a voicemail loop. Not a callback queue on Monday morning. A real person.

Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. You know who’s walking into your home before they arrive. That’s The Garrison Code, and it’s how we operate in Tampa, whether we’re working on a 1920s bungalow in Hyde Park or a 1990s ranch in Carrollwood.

Air Duct Repair in Tampa

Air Duct Repair in Tampa often starts with a cleaning call that turns into something more honest. Tampa’s slab-on-grade construction means duct runs sit in 140°F attics or under slabs, so the humidity-driven condensation inside them rarely dries out – which is why Tampa duct work tends toward microbial growth and rotted flex insulation, not just dust, and why cleaning alone often fails without sealing or replacement.

When we quote repair work, the price is written down before we touch anything. A typical duct repair in Tampa runs $200 – $500 for minor sealing and reconnection, $600 – $1,200 for partial flex replacement or rerouting crushed runs, and $1,500 – $3,500 for full system replacement in older homes with asbestos insulation or undersized original ductwork.

Crushed and Disconnected Runs

In historic neighborhoods like Seminole Heights, we regularly find abandoned returns in crawlspaces pulling attic air, or runs crushed behind walls during decades of renovation. A standard clean won’t fix that. We run camera inspection first, show you what we found, then seal or replace what’s actually broken.

Attic Heat Damage

Tampa’s year-round HVAC operation means duct insulation in 140°F attics fails and flakes off fast. Crews that skip camera inspection miss that the real fix is replacing the rotted flex, not just cleaning inside it. We check. We show you. Then we price the repair in writing.

Ductwork Cleaning in Tampa

Ductwork Cleaning in Tampa is source-removal work: we put the system under negative pressure with a Nikro machine, then use mechanical agitation to dislodge buildup and extract it through HEPA filtration. But “source removal” only works if the source is dust and dander. In Tampa, it’s often microbial growth fed by humidity, and that’s a different job.

A standard whole-home ductwork cleaning in Tampa runs $350 – $650. Add video inspection for $150 – $250. If we find biological contamination requiring antimicrobial treatment, that adds $200 – $400. We price it all before we start.

What Source Removal Actually Means

Negative-air method: we hook a powerful vacuum to your trunk line, create suction throughout the system, then use rotary brushes or compressed-air whips to knock debris loose. Everything gets filtered through HEPA before it hits your home’s air. We explain the setup before we cut the equipment on.

When Cleaning Becomes Remediation

In a Seminole Heights bungalow off Central Avenue, our crew ran camera inspection through original 1960s ductwork and found a crushed run behind the kitchen, an abandoned return in the crawlspace pulling attic air, and flex insulation that had disintegrated from years of attic heat. We set up HEPA filtration and negative pressure, used agitation tools to remove the microbial buildup, then sealed the disconnected runs and replaced the failed flex – the blower motor’s amp draw dropped and the homeowner finally stopped smelling that musty odor every time the AC kicked on. It wasn’t a clean – it was a reseal.

Trusted Brands We Service in Tampa

We carry professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, and Abatement Technologies, and we stock filtration products from Honeywell and Aprilaire for Tampa homeowners who want to upgrade while we’re already in the system. These aren’t hardware-store tools. The Nikro negative-air machines we run pull 2,000+ CFM, enough to keep your whole system under vacuum while we work. Honeywell and Aprilaire media filters and electronic air cleaners install directly into your return plenum, and we keep common sizes on the truck so there’s no second trip. If your Tampa home runs a specific brand, we likely service it – and if we need a part we don’t stock, our South Florida office coordinates fast turnaround so you’re not waiting.

Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Tampa Homes

• Microbial growth in attic flex. Tampa’s 80 – 100% summer humidity plus 140°F attic temperatures create a greenhouse inside your duct insulation. We open the attic hatch and find black or green growth on the flex exterior – sometimes inside, if the vapor barrier has failed.
• Disconnected returns in slab-on-grade homes. Under-slab ducts in Tampa’s older neighborhoods can hold standing condensate that never dries. A clean without addressing the moisture source or adding proper sealing just puts clean ducts back into a wet environment.
• Asbestos insulation on original ductwork. Seminole Heights and Hyde Park bungalows often have original metal ducts wrapped in asbestos-containing material. We don’t disturb it without proper abatement protocol, and we’ll tell you upfront if that’s what we’re looking at.
• Undersized ductwork for modern AC. A 2-ton system from 1985 can’t push enough air through 1960s ductwork designed for a smaller unit. The system runs longer, humidity stays higher, and the ducts never dry out. Cleaning helps; resizing fixes it.
