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.

AfterFast, Reliable Dryer Vent Cleaning Across Delray Beach
Dryer vent cleaning in Delray Beach typically runs $150 – $275 for a standard residential system, with most jobs completed in under two hours. We’re the Delray Beach crew homeowners call when lint buildup, slow drying, or that burned-lint smell won’t go away – or when a post-storm inspection reveals water got somewhere it shouldn’t.
Our scheduling desk sits in Miami, but our vans roll to Delray Beach daily for Air Duct Cleaning in Delray Beach. We know the difference between a 1970s Kings Point ranch with slab-on-grade ductwork and a beachside A1A estate with a 20-foot chase through salt-corroded framing. That local knowledge matters because the wrong approach on the wrong house turns a cleaning into a much bigger job. Call (361) 326-5060 and we’ll give you a written price before we touch anything.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Delray Beach’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company

Delray Beach homeowners mention the same things in feedback: the technician explained what the Rotobrush agitation tool was doing and why, the price matched the quote exactly, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise was printed on the invoice, not just mentioned. If our work fails within a year, we come back and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit.
Phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No voicemail loops. No callback queues. When you’re smelling hot lint in a house full of storm shutters, that matters.
Our crews carry background-checked credentials and arrive uniformed. You know who’s walking into your home before they get there.
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Delray Beach
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Delray Beach covers multi-unit laundry rooms, hospitality operations along Atlantic Avenue, and condominium facilities from the Marina District west to Military Trail. The job involves inspecting the full run with a camera, agitating lint deposits with rotary brush systems, and extracting under negative pressure using Nikro equipment – not a shop vac and a prayer. A Delray Beach commercial client typically needs this service every 3 – 6 months depending on cycle volume; costs run $300 – $650 per system for standard configurations. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate on your facility.
Multi-Unit Compliance Documentation
Condo associations in Delray Beach face insurance audits and fire marshal inspections. We provide before-and-after photos, airflow readings in CFM, and a written NADCA-compliant report that satisfies underwriters. No documentation, no coverage – we don’t leave you guessing.
Kitchen Exhaust Coordination
Restaurants along Pineapple Grove and the Avenue often bundle dryer vent and kitchen hood cleaning. We schedule both with the same crew, same visit, to minimize downtime during prep hours. One written price covers both systems.
Dryer Vent Cleaning Service in Delray Beach
Dryer Vent Cleaning Service in Delray Beach means more than pulling lint from a trap. We inspect the full run from appliance to termination, check for proper slope and support, test airflow, and document everything. A Delray Beach homeowner needs this when clothes take more than one cycle to dry, the exterior flap barely opens, or the laundry room feels noticeably humid. Residential service runs $150 – $275; bird guard or cap replacement adds $45 – $120 if needed. Call (361) 326-5060 for your written quote.
Post-Storm Water Intrusion Assessment
After hurricane season, we inspect for water in the vent line that can wick lint into a paste and block airflow completely. Our techs use moisture meters and camera inspection to determine whether cleaning suffices or replacement is necessary – and we document the finding with photos an insurer will accept.
Historic Home Re-Routing
Pre-1950 homes in Osceola Park and near the Marina District often contain transite or cement-asbestos ductwork embedded in slab foundations. A standard sweep can crack these runs and release fibers. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning team re-routes through attic chases or exterior walls using Guardsman vent kits, bypassing the hazard entirely.
Trusted Brands We Service in Delray Beach
We stock parts and maintain equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, Abatement Technologies, Guardsman, Aprilaire, and Honeywell – the same professional-grade tools commercial crews use, not hardware-store gear. For Delray Beach customers, that means faster turnaround on repairs and replacements. A cracked vent cap from salt corrosion along A1A? We likely have the Guardsman replacement in the van. A failing backdraft damper in a Kings Point villa? The Aprilaire component is on the shelf. We don’t order-and-wait. We fix it while we’re there, priced in writing before we start.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Delray Beach Homes
- Slab-embedded transite ducts in historic districts. Homes built before 1955 in Osceola Park and Pineapple Grove often have original cement-asbestos vent runs in the foundation. A standard rotary brush can fracture these, releasing hazardous fibers. We camera-inspect first and re-route when necessary.
- Salt-air corrosion of metal venting near the coast. Beachside properties along A1A and the Intracoastal see accelerated rust and pinhole leaks in galvanized vent pipe. Lint escapes into wall cavities, creating hidden fire loads. We replace corroded sections with Guardsman aluminum or stainless runs rated for coastal exposure.
- Post-storm lint paste from humidity intrusion. After hurricane-season power outages, Delray Beach homes with window damage or roof leaks often get water in the vent line. Wet lint hardens like concrete. Negative-air extraction with HEPA filtration is the only method that clears it without pushing debris into the home.
- Improper terminations in 1970s – ’90s ranch homes. Kings Point and western subdivisions used short vent runs with flimsy plastic louvers that degrade in UV. Birds nest behind them. Lint backs up into the dryer cabinet. We upgrade to code-compliant caps with integrated guards.
Pricing for Dryer Vent Cleaning in Delray Beach, FL
A standard residential dryer vent cleaning in Delray Beach runs $150 – $275.

What moves the price: length of run, number of elbows, accessibility (crawlspace vs. second-floor chase), and whether we find water damage or asbestos-containing material requiring special handling.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Delray Beach
We can restore safe airflow, but we typically do not sweep slab-embedded transite or cement-asbestos runs directly. Our tech camera-inspects first; if the material tests positive or shows degradation, we re-route the vent line through an attic chase or exterior wall using a Guardsman kit and seal the original opening. This protects your indoor air and keeps us compliant with asbestos handling protocols. Call (361) 326-5060 to schedule an inspection.
We use moisture meters, borescope cameras, and airflow testing to make the determination, and we document everything with photos and written findings. If water reached the duct insulation or corroded the pipe wall, cleaning won’t restore structural integrity – replacement is necessary for safety and insurance compliance. If only lint and surface moisture are present, negative-air extraction with HEPA filtration clears the line completely. We give you the documentation in language your adjuster will accept. Call (361) 326-5060 for post-storm assessment.
It means we follow the National Air Duct Cleaners Association protocol for inspection, cleaning, and documentation: protected work areas, source-contained agitation, negative-pressure collection, and post-cleaning verification. For Delray Beach homeowners, the practical difference is written proof of what was done, with before-and-after photos and airflow readings. Condo associations and commercial clients often require this for insurance renewals. We include it on every job, residential or commercial.
Restricted airflow from lint buildup is the most common cause of commercial dryer overheating, and it’s also a leading cause of laundry fires. We measure static pressure and CFM at the appliance and termination; if readings fall below manufacturer spec, we clean the full run and provide a compliance report. If the vent is clear, we flag other causes – failing thermostats, damaged heating elements – so your maintenance team knows where to look next. Call (361) 326-5060 for commercial diagnosis.
Salt-laden ocean air accelerates corrosion inside metal vent pipe, creating rough surfaces that trap lint. Higher ambient humidity also means moisture condenses in cooler vent runs, especially long horizontal sections common in A1A condos, turning lint into a paste that standard airflow can’t clear. Beachside properties typically need inspection every 12 – 18 months versus 24 – 36 months inland. We use corrosion-resistant materials and proper slope on replacements to extend that interval. Call (361) 326-5060 to schedule.
