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.

AfterAir Duct Cleaning Company in Bronx, NY
Full-system air duct cleaning in the Bronx typically runs $350 – $650 for a standard apartment or small home, with larger pre-war buildings and multi-unit jobs reaching $800 – $1,400. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Garrison Partners family, and we dispatch crews from our New York City office to handle the borough’s unique pre-1950 housing stock, rental-compliance documentation, and year-round HVAC strain. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
Why Bronx Homes Are Different
The Bronx doesn’t play by suburban rules. Large swaths of the borough, especially in neighborhoods like Hunts Point, Mott Haven, and University Heights, are built from pre-1950 rental apartment stock with original galvanized or cast-iron ductwork that’s often undersized, unsealed, and buried behind plaster walls. That changes everything about how we access, clean, and document the job.
Cold winters and humid summers keep HVAC systems running nearly year-round here, which packs ducts with debris faster than in milder climates. The borough’s high asthma rates, driven partly by older heating systems and roach and mold allergens, mean duct cleaning is often a health priority, not a luxury. And then there’s the compliance layer: buildings covered by Local Law 55, the Asthma-Free Housing Act, can face violations when ducts circulate allergens or mold, so cleanings frequently need documentation for HPD or HQS inspections.
We’ve also found illegal dryer exhausts and bathroom vents discharging into air shafts or wall cavities more often here than anywhere else we work. What starts as a routine duct cleaning can turn into a code-compliance job that requires careful documentation and proper remediation.
Our Main Bronx Services
Most calls we get from Bronx homeowners and property managers fall into three categories. Each has its own page with full pricing, process details, and neighborhood-specific notes.
Air Duct Cleaning in Bronx
We clean supply and return ducts with Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines, pulling debris out rather than pushing it deeper. In the Bronx, we often work around asbestos-wrapped duct insulation that must be handled per NYC DEP and EPA rules, and we document everything for landlords who need HPD-compliant records. Every job gets a written price before we start and is covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Air Duct Cleaning in Bronx
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Bronx
Dryer vent blockages are a leading cause of house fires, and in the Bronx they’re compounded by illegal exhaust configurations we find in older buildings. We run a rotary brush through the full vent line to the termination point, verify airflow with a meter, and flag any code violations that need correction before they become a fire or moisture problem.

Duct Sealing in Bronx
Pre-war ductwork in the Bronx is often leaky by design, with joints that were never sealed properly and access points that have shifted as buildings settled. We apply duct sealing mastic and mechanical fasteners to restore pressure balance, cut energy waste, and stop conditioned air from bleeding into wall cavities. This is especially valuable in buildings where replacement isn’t practical. Duct Sealing in Bronx
