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 Company in Arlington, VA
Air duct cleaning in Arlington, VA typically costs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system and is scheduled by appointment, not dispatched same-day. The work differs here because Arlington’s mix of 1960s ranch homes with aging flex duct and newer subdivisions faces unique stress from intense attic heat and heavy spring pollen loads. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Garrison Partners family, and we serve Arlington with written prices before any work starts and a 365-Day Done Right Promise on every job. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate.
Why Arlington Homes Are Different
Arlington sits in the heart of the Metroplex with a housing stock that spans 1960s-70s ranch homes, 1980s-90s subdivisions, and newer construction. What unites them is the combination of heavy spring allergen loads from surrounding grasslands and widespread use of flex duct in attics that degrades faster due to extreme attic heat. This makes duct cleaning in Arlington as much about removing allergen buildup as it is about repairing and replacing damaged flex duct.
Much of Arlington’s housing consists of ranch-style homes built from the 1960s to 1980s, many with original or aging HVAC systems and flex ductwork in attics. These ducts often suffer from heat damage, pest intrusion, and mold growth, requiring thorough cleaning and frequent replacement. Arlington’s humid subtropical climate brings hot, humid summers and mild winters, with high pollen counts in spring from oak, grass, and ragweed. This promotes mold and allergen accumulation in ductwork, making regular cleaning essential for indoor air quality.
The distinctive problem here is intense attic heat, often exceeding 140°F in summer, combined with high humidity that causes flex duct inner liners to deteriorate and release fibers into the air supply. Local technicians frequently find ducts in older Arlington homes with crushed or disconnected sections due to rodent activity and poor original installation.

Dryer Vent Cleaning in Arlington
Dryer vent cleaning in Arlington addresses lint buildup that poses a genuine fire hazard, especially in homes where the vent run passes through hot attic spaces that accelerate lint compaction. We clear the full run from dryer to termination, inspect for proper airflow, and flag any flex-duct sections that have sagged or disconnected in the attic heat. Background-checked, uniformed technicians arrive inside the quoted window and leave the site clean. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Arlington
