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.

Why Dripping Springs Homes Are Different
Dripping Springs sits on the edge of the Texas Hill Country, and that geography changes what we pull out of ducts here. The cedar pollen season, peaking December through March, sends fine Ashe juniper particles through return vents that standard filters barely catch. We’ve opened systems in Belterra and Caliterra where the buildup looked like fine yellow-gray paste caked on blower wheels and coil fins.
The housing stock splits two ways. Older ranch homes from the 1970s through 1990s, common along Fitzhugh Road and near the historic downtown, often have galvanized ductwork that’s settled, cracked, or never sealed properly. Then there’s the wave of new construction: 2,500 to 4,500 square foot custom homes in gated communities, many with two or three separate HVAC zones, flex duct runs, and residual drywall dust from builders who ran systems during construction. That caliche grit tracked in on boots grinds into blower motors and embeds in duct lining.
Most Dripping Springs homes run cooling eight or nine months a year. Systems never get a rest, so debris accumulates faster than in climates with a true shoulder season. The combination of year-round runtime, cedar pollen, and construction dust means a three-year-old system here can look like a ten-year-old system elsewhere.
Our Main Dripping Springs Services
Most calls we get from Dripping Springs homeowners fall into three categories. Each has its own page with full details.
Air Duct Cleaning in Dripping Springs
We clean the full supply and return network with a Rotobrush rotary brush system and Nikro negative-air machines that pull dislodged debris out of the home, not deeper into the ductwork. In Dripping Springs, we pay special attention to flex duct runs in newer homes, where construction dust settles in low spots, and to cedar pollen coating on evaporator coils that reduces cooling efficiency.

Dryer Vent Cleaning in Dripping Springs
Dryer vent blockages are a fire hazard and a energy drain. We run augers and high-velocity air tools through the full vent run, including roof terminations common in Dripping Springs homes with interior laundry rooms. Long vent runs in larger custom homes are especially prone to lint compaction that standard brushes won’t clear. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Dripping Springs
Duct Sealing in Dripping Springs
We seal leaks with mastic and mechanical fasteners at joints, boots, and plenum connections. Older Dripping Springs ranch homes often lose 20 to 30 percent of conditioned air through attic duct leaks before it reaches the vents. Newer homes with multiple zones frequently have gaps at flex duct connections where builders relied on tape that failed within the first year. Duct Sealing in Dripping Springs
