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 Duct Sealing Across Liberty Lake
We dispatch to Liberty Lake from our Seattle office, and our crews know the Spokane Valley well enough to find the turnoff for Meadowwood without GPS. If you live in one of the subdivisions that grew up around the golf course, the newer custom builds near the lake, or one of the condo clusters off the main drag, we’ll give you a written price before we touch anything and show up inside the window we promised. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate on your system.
Liberty Lake isn’t like the rest of Spokane County. The housing stock here is newer, tighter, and built for efficiency. That changes what goes wrong with ductwork and what fixing it looks like.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Liberty Lake’s Preferred Duct Sealing Company
We’ve been doing this since 2004 as part of the Garrison Partners family, and our Duct Sealing team has worked enough Liberty Lake homes to know the pattern. The subdivisions off North Meadowwood Lane, the custom builds with lake views, the condos near the trailheads – we’ve sealed ducts in all of them. Homeowners here aren’t dealing with crumbling mid-century metal like you’d find in Spokane proper. They’re dealing with something trickier: sealed, high-efficiency systems from the 1990s and 2000s that were never designed to be opened, never cleaned, and are now leaking at joints that were supposed to last forever.
Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. The price is written down before any work starts. And every repair is covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise – if it fails within a year, we come back at no charge, including a free second visit. No negotiation, no runaround. Phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Air Duct Sealing in Liberty Lake
Air Duct Sealing in Liberty Lake means finding and closing gaps in the forced-air pathway so the air you paid to heat or cool actually reaches the rooms you live in. In this market, the job usually involves mastic and foil tape joints at plenums, wyes, and register boots on 1990s-2000s sealed systems that have cracked after two decades of hot, dry summers and cold, snowy winters. A typical whole-system sealing job in Liberty Lake runs $400 – $900 for a single-system home, with multi-system houses scaling from there. We price per system, not per vent, and we write it down before we start.
When Sealing Becomes Necessary
Most Liberty Lake homeowners call us because one room won’t hold temperature, the utility bill climbed without explanation, or they felt hot and cold spots after years of even airflow. These are classic signs of leakage at joints or seams, especially in zoned systems with long flex runs.
What the Work Actually Involves
We pressurize the system, locate leaks with smoke or digital detection, then seal accessible joints with mastic and foil tape rated for the temperature swings the Spokane Valley throws at it. If the ducts are dirty, we remove the debris first – sealing over a clogged joint traps dust and forces it back through your supply registers.
Duct Sealing Services in Liberty Lake
Duct Sealing Services in Liberty Lake cover more than slapping tape on a loose joint. Because so many homes here have multiple HVAC systems – two or three air handlers serving different floors or wings – we price and document each system separately. A typical single-system seal runs $400 – $900. Homes with two systems usually fall in the $750 – $1,400 range, and three-system custom builds around the lake or golf course can run $1,100 – $1,900. Every price is written, agreed, and locked before work begins.
Multi-System Pricing That Makes Sense
Per-vent pricing punishes homes with more returns and supplies. We charge per system because that’s where the labor and material actually go. A three-system house gets three separate inspections, three separate sealing operations, and three separate documentation packets. No averaging, no guesswork.
Documentation You Can Keep
Every sealed system gets a written report with pre- and post-sealing photos of accessible joints, the test method used, and which joints were treated. You can’t see inside your walls. We make sure you have proof the work happened and where.

Trusted Brands We Service in Liberty Lake
We carry parts and materials for systems running Honeywell and Aprilaire controls and filtration, and we stock sealing products from Abatement Technologies for jobs that need commercial-grade containment.

Liberty Lake homeowners with zoned or high-efficiency systems don’t need to wait for special-order parts – our vans carry what the local housing stock actually uses.
Common Duct Sealing Problems We See in Liberty Lake Homes
- Mastic failure at plenums and wyes. The 1990s-2000s sealed systems in Liberty Lake’s subdivisions were joined with mastic and foil tape that cracks after repeated expansion and contraction. We find separated joints at air handler plenums blowing conditioned air into joist bays and crawl spaces, especially in homes that have never been opened for inspection.
- Partial sealing on multi-system homes. A crew seals the main air handler and leaves the second or third system untouched. The homeowner feels improvement on one floor and assumes the job is done, while the upstairs or wing system keeps leaking at registers, boots, and the blower motor cabinet.
- Sealing over dirty joints. Because Liberty Lake homes are tightly built and many have never been cleaned, fine orchard-land dust and drywall debris clog seams and mask leaks. Sealant applied over this grime traps the contamination and releases it back through supply and return ducts when the system cycles.
- Long flex runs in custom builds. The upscale homes near the golf course and lake often use extended flexible duct runs for aesthetic routing. These sag, kink, and separate at connections over time, creating leaks that standard register-sealing kits never reach.
Pricing for Duct Sealing in Liberty Lake, WA
A typical single-system duct sealing in Liberty Lake runs $400 – $900. Two-system homes range $750 – $1,400. Three-system custom builds fall between $1,100 – $1,900. What moves you within that range: how many joints need treatment, whether we need to remove debris before sealing, and how accessible the ductwork is through attic or crawl space openings.

Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate – we’ll ask about your home’s age, number of systems, and any hot or cold spots you’re noticing.

FAQs About Duct Sealing in Liberty Lake
The mastic and foil tape joints in your 2003 system have cycled through 20-plus years of hot, dry summers and cold, snowy Spokane Valley winters. That thermal expansion cracks sealant at plenums and wyes. Many Liberty Lake homes also have fine orchard-land dust and construction debris in ducts that were never cleaned, which accelerates joint failure. Call (361) 326-5060 and we’ll inspect the accessible joints and give you a written price before any work starts.
We price per system, not per vent. A three-system custom build in Liberty Lake typically runs $1,100 – $1,900 depending on accessibility and joint condition. Each system gets its own inspection, sealing operation, and documentation packet. The price for all three is written down before we begin – no averaging, no surprises at the door. Call (361) 326-5060 for an exact quote on your setup.
You should receive pre- and post-sealing photos of every accessible joint, a written report naming which joints were treated and with what materials, and the test method used to locate leaks. We provide this for every system we seal. If a company won’t document what they did in spaces you can’t inspect, you have no proof the work happened. Call (361) 326-5060 and we’ll explain exactly what you’ll receive before we schedule.
The Greenacres and Liberty Lake area carries a heavy spring pollen load, and the former orchard land under many subdivisions leaves fine dust that accumulates in ductwork. Sealing over dirty joints traps this debris and forces it back through your supply registers when the system runs. We remove the contamination first with negative-air source removal, then seal. The result lasts longer and doesn’t blow dust into your living space. Call (361) 326-5060 to schedule an inspection.
Yes. Condos and second homes near the trailheads and lake often have the same 1990s-2000s sealed systems as the subdivisions, and vacancy doesn’t prevent joint failure – it can accelerate it, as temperature swings hit static ductwork without the moderating effect of regular system cycling. We inspect, document, and seal these units with the same per-system pricing and written guarantee. Call (361) 326-5060 to arrange service that fits your occupancy schedule.
