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.

Hastings isn’t like the suburbs closer to Jacksonville. The homes here are older farmhouses, manufactured homes on rural lots, and small ranchettes surrounded by working agricultural land. That means dryer vents run longer distances, bend around additions that weren’t part of the original build, and pull in fine dust from field plowing and harvesting that clogs lint traps and vent lines faster than you’d see in a typical neighborhood. We’ve cleaned vents in Hastings homes where the lint was packed with reddish clay dust and crop residue you won’t find anywhere else in St. Johns County.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Hastings’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
We’ve been doing this since 2004 as part of the Garrison Partners family, and our Dryer Vent Cleaning team knows the difference between a standard suburban install and the retrofitted, extended vent runs common in Hastings. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and held to The Garrison Code: arrive inside the quoted window, price in writing before work starts, complete the job by the book, and leave the site clean. That discipline matters more in a rural community where word travels fast and a no-show or a price jump at the door gets remembered.
Our phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No voicemail loops, no callback queues, no waiting until Monday morning to schedule. When you call (361) 326-5060, you talk to a human who can book your appointment and give you a real arrival window.
Every job carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If the work fails within a year, we come back and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. That’s not a verbal assurance; it’s printed on your invoice.
We also handle Duct Sealing in Hastings and Air Duct Cleaning in Hastings, so if your inspection turns up leaks in the duct system or buildup in the main trunk lines, we can address it without bringing in a second contractor.
Dryer Vent Inspection in Hastings
Dryer Vent Inspection in Hastings, FL is the first step before any cleaning or repair work, and it runs $85 to $150 when performed as a standalone service or is often bundled free with a full cleaning. In Hastings, these inspections frequently reveal problems you wouldn’t see in newer construction: vents routed through crawl spaces under manufactured homes, sagging flexible ductwork chewed by rodents in barn-adjacent outbuildings, or lint packed with the fine agricultural dust that blows through this farming community every spring and fall. Our technician runs a camera through the vent line, checks airflow with a digital anemometer, and inspects the exterior cap for damage or bird nesting.
What We Check on Every Inspection
We measure airflow at the exterior cap, inspect the transition duct behind the dryer for kinks or crush damage, and check the vent line for excessive length or too many bends. In Hastings, we regularly see vent runs exceeding 25 feet with multiple elbows, which puts the system outside the manufacturer’s recommended specs and creates lint traps at every turn.
When to Schedule an Inspection
Book an inspection if your dryer takes more than one cycle to dry a normal load, if you smell burning lint, or if it’s been over a year since the last cleaning. In the manufactured homes common around Hastings, we also recommend inspection before the peak harvest season when field dust is at its worst.
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Hastings
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Hastings, FL covers laundromats, multi-unit housing, agricultural processing facilities with employee laundry, and commercial kitchens with high-volume drying operations, with pricing typically ranging from $200 to $550 depending on system complexity and access. Hastings doesn’t have the dense commercial corridors of Jacksonville, but the commercial dryers here work harder and longer, especially in processing and packing facilities where uniforms and cleaning rags run through constant cycles. These systems accumulate lint faster than residential units, and the longer vent runs required in sprawling rural buildings create additional fire hazards that demand regular professional attention.
Scheduled Maintenance Programs
We set up quarterly or semi-annual cleaning schedules for commercial clients, with written pricing locked in for the contract term. Our technicians arrive with Rotobrush rotary systems and Nikro negative-air machines sized for commercial ductwork, not the small shop-vac rigs that leave half the lint behind.
Code Compliance Documentation
Commercial properties in St. Johns County need documentation of vent maintenance for insurance and fire marshal inspections. We provide before-and-after photos, airflow readings, and a written report with every commercial cleaning.
Trusted Brands We Service in Hastings
We clean and repair vent systems connected to every major dryer manufacturer, and we stock replacement caps, bird guards, and transition ducts for fast turnaround on Hastings jobs. Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary brush systems for mechanical agitation of packed lint, Nikro negative-air machines for controlled debris extraction, and filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman. When we install new vent caps or bird guards on your Hastings home, we use the same professional-grade components we specify for commercial jobs, not the thin-gauge hardware-store versions that corrode in Florida’s salt and humidity within two seasons.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Hastings Homes
- Extended vent runs in manufactured homes. Many Hastings mobile homes have dryer vents routed 30-plus feet under the structure with multiple flexible elbows. Lint packs at every sag and turn, and the thin flexible duct crushes easily, choking airflow to dangerous levels.
- Agricultural dust mixed with lint. The fine dust from potato and cabbage field operations around Hastings gets pulled into laundry rooms through open windows and door gaps, then bonds with lint into dense, packed clogs that standard cleaning brushes struggle to break loose.
- Rodent damage in rural outbuildings. Dryer vents in barn-adjacent workshops and secondary laundry rooms attract mice and rats seeking nesting material. We regularly find chewed flexible ductwork and blocked caps on properties along the rural roads west of downtown Hastings.
- Missing or damaged bird guards. The open farmland around Hastings means plenty of birds looking for nesting spots. We find nests blocking exterior caps on homes near tree lines and irrigation ponds, especially in spring when mockingbirds and sparrows are active.
Pricing for Dryer Vent Cleaning in Hastings, FL
A standard residential dryer vent cleaning in Hastings runs $120 to $280. That’s for a single-family home with accessible exterior cap and typical vent run length. If your system needs a bird guard installed, add $45 to $85. Vent cap replacement runs $65 to $120 depending on the cap type. Vent rerouting, which we sometimes recommend for Hastings manufactured homes with dangerous under-floor runs, typically costs $180 to $350.
What moves the price? Length of the vent run, number of elbows, accessibility (crawl space work costs more), and whether we need to disassemble and reassemble the dryer to reach a crushed transition duct. We give you one flat price per system, agreed in writing, before any work starts. No per-foot add-ons, no surprise charges when we’re already in your laundry room.
