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.

We’ve been crawling through Broadmoor’s tight lots and mid-century crawlspaces since 2004. The Garrison Partners family built Hollis Air Duct Cleaning on a simple idea: show up when we said, price it before we touch it, and stand behind the work for a full year. In Broadmoor, that means understanding how the fog off the Pacific, the original 1940s ductwork, and the compact homes near Skyline Boulevard all stress air delivery systems differently than they do in Daly City’s newer tracts. Our dispatch is coordinated from the Los Angeles office, but crews serve Broadmoor locally and know the difference between a home off Dalewood Way and one pressed against the I-280 corridor.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Broadmoor’s Preferred Duct Sealing Company
Broadmoor homeowners call us because we’ve earned a reputation for not playing bait-and-switch games with pricing. Our Duct Sealing team arrives in uniform, background-checked, with the price written down before any mastic goes on or any tape gets pulled. Roy Castellanos leads this operation, and his name is on every 365-Day Done Right Promise we issue.
We know the local housing stock. Most Broadmoor homes were built in the 1940s and 1950s with rigid metal or early flexible ductwork sized for smaller furnaces. Those systems weren’t built for modern filtration, and they weren’t built to handle decades of marine moisture creeping through crawlspaces. Our technicians recognize the partial slab configurations and buried duct runs that are common here, and they know how to access them without tearing apart a finished basement or disturbing tight landscaping on these compact lots.

Duct Insulation in Broadmoor
Duct Insulation in Broadmoor addresses a problem the fog creates but few homeowners notice: cold, unconditioned air bleeding into supply lines that run through crawlspaces, garages, or partial slabs. In this cool coastal strip just south of San Francisco, ducts that aren’t properly insulated force your furnace to work harder for longer, and they dump conditioned air into spaces where it does no good. A typical duct insulation job in Broadmoor runs $600 – $1,400, with the final figure depending on linear footage, accessibility, and whether we’re working with original rigid metal or retrofitted flexible duct.
When Insulation Beats Sealing Alone
Some Broadmoor homes have tight ducts that still hemorrhage temperature. If your system holds pressure but rooms stay cold, the issue is likely thermal loss through thin or degraded wrap. We use professional-grade materials from Abatement Technologies and Guardsman, measured and cut to fit your specific runs, not stuffed in as afterthoughts.
Moisture-Resistant Materials for Marine Air
Broadmoor’s damp climate ruins standard insulation faster than inland markets. We specify closed-cell foam wraps and vapor-barrier jackets that won’t absorb the fog-driven moisture that creeps through crawlspace vents year-round.
HVAC Duct Sealing in Broadmoor
HVAC Duct Sealing in Broadmoor fixes the pressure leaks that force your system to over-deliver just to reach the thermostat setpoint. In these mid-century homes with original ductwork, seams separate, tape dries and falls away, and connections to registers work loose after decades of thermal cycling. The result is rooms that never warm up, utility bills that climb without explanation, and furnaces that cycle too often. A typical HVAC duct sealing job in Broadmoor costs $400 – $900 for a whole-home seal, with larger or harder-to-access systems at the upper end.
Mastic vs. Tape: What We Apply
We brush on water-based duct sealing mastic at every joint, seam, and penetration. Mastic stays flexible, won’t dry and crack like foil tape, and penetrates small gaps that tape only covers. For rigid metal ducts common in Broadmoor’s older homes, this is the correct repair, not a temporary patch.
Pressure Testing After the Seal
Every job ends with a duct blaster or pressure pan test to verify results. We show you the before-and-after numbers. If the system doesn’t hold, we find the missed leak and fix it before we leave. That’s The Garrison Standard.
Trusted Brands We Service in Broadmoor
We stock parts and materials from Rotobrush, Nikro, Abatement Technologies, and Guardsman, the same brands commercial crews specify. For Broadmoor customers, this means no waiting on special orders for compatible mastics, tapes, or insulation wraps. Our vans carry the full range, so a technician who arrives to seal your Dalewood Way home can complete the job without a parts run. We also service and source filtration products from Honeywell and Aprilaire, which matters when we’re sealing a system and the homeowner wants to upgrade the filter cabinet at the same time. Fast turnaround isn’t a slogan here; it’s having the right material on the shelf when your appointment window starts.
Common Duct Sealing Problems We See in Broadmoor Homes
- Original tape failure on 1940s – 1950s rigid metal ducts. The foil tape installed when these homes were built has long since dried, cracked, and fallen away. We find entire seams breathing unconditioned air into crawlspaces that were never meant to be conditioned.
- Carbon and road dust infiltration near I-280 and Skyline Boulevard. Homes within earshot of the freeway corridor pull fine black particulate through return leaks. The ducts aren’t just leaking air; they’re pulling in pollution that standard filters can’t catch.
- Flexible duct collapse in cramped crawlspaces. Broadmoor’s tight lots leave little room for proper support. Sagging flex duct kinks, restricts airflow, and tears at connections. We replace or re-support as needed during sealing.
- Moisture-weakened connections from marine fog. The damp coastal air that keeps Broadmoor cool also rusts metal fittings and softens mastic that wasn’t specified for wet environments. We use materials rated for the moisture load this climate delivers.
