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 Costa Mesa, CA
Most Costa Mesa homeowners pay between $350 and $650 for a full residential air duct cleaning, with dryer vent runs adding $120 to $220 and duct sealing ranging from $800 to $1,800 depending on system size. Hollis Air Duct Cleaning handles the full range, from rotary brush cleaning of salt-corroded galvanized ductwork in westside ranches to negative-air restoration of flexible ducting in newer condos near South Coast Metro. Our crews understand how Costa Mesa’s marine layer, asbestos-era materials, and non-standard layouts change the scope of every job. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work begins.
Why Costa Mesa Homes Are Different
Costa Mesa sits in a coastal marine layer zone that creates year-round humidity, mild damp winters, and dry warm summers. That humidity fosters mold and mildew inside ducts, especially in homes without central air conditioning or with poorly sealed systems. The salt-laden air from Upper Newport Bay and the Santa Ana River trails accelerates corrosion in metal ductwork, so we regularly find rusted galvanized runs in the 1950s-60s ranch homes west of Harbor Boulevard.
Those older westside tracts were built with asbestos-wrapped duct systems that require special handling when disturbed. The layouts are non-standard, too, meaning a crew trained only on modern tract homes will struggle to access every run. On the east side and near South Coast Metro, newer high-density condos and apartments use flexible ducting that collects dust and allergens in ways rigid metal doesn’t. We carry the right equipment for both housing types, and we price each job in writing before touching anything.
Our Main Costa Mesa Services
Costa Mesa homeowners call us most often for these three services, each handled with The Garrison Standard of written pricing, background-checked uniformed technicians, and our 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Air Duct Cleaning in Costa Mesa
We clean residential duct systems using Rotobrush rotary brush systems for light to moderate buildup, and Nikro negative-air machines for heavy contamination or post-construction restoration. In Costa Mesa, we often switch methods mid-job when we encounter the mixed housing stock, from original galvanized runs in Mesa Verde to flexible ducting in newer buildings near the metro core. Every job gets a written price upfront and before-and-after photos of your own ducts. Air Duct Cleaning in Costa Mesa covers full system details.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Costa Mesa
Dryer vent cleaning in Costa Mesa runs into two local problems: salt air corrosion of exterior vent hoods, and longer vent runs in multi-story condos that create more lint accumulation points. We clean the full run from appliance to termination, inspect the exterior hood for corrosion damage, and note any code issues with the vent path. If the vent fails within a year, we return at no charge under our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Costa Mesa has full pricing and scope.
Duct Sealing in Costa Mesa
Duct sealing with mastic and professional-grade materials stops the conditioned air loss that drives up bills in Costa Mesa’s older homes. We see significant leakage in asbestos-era systems where joints have separated, and in newer flexible ducting where supports have failed and created sag points. Sealing is priced by system size, with the full cost written before work starts. Duct Sealing in Costa Mesa explains the process and typical ranges.
