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.
Air Duct Cleaning Company in Forest Hills, TN
Forest Hills homeowners typically pay $350 – $650 for whole-home air duct cleaning, with most jobs scheduled proactively in spring and fall rather than as emergency calls. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and we dispatch crews to Forest Hills from our Memphis office with equipment built for the vintage flex duct, low-clearance attics, and code-compliant access panels that define work in this city. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
Why Forest Hills Homes Are Different
Forest Hills developed largely between the 1960s and 1980s as an upscale enclave with its own building department, and that history shapes every job we run here. Most houses are custom-built ranches and two-stories with original or updated flex duct snaking through unconditioned attics and crawlspaces, multiple air returns, and older air handlers that collect dust the way newer sealed systems don’t.
The local climate pushes HVAC hard both ways. Hot, humid summers and cool, damp winters mean systems cycle heavily year-round, promoting condensation and biological growth inside ductwork that drier climates rarely see. When the first cold snap arrives, homeowners with unsealed joints in attic runs often notice dust and musty odors spreading through vents, a pattern we see each autumn in Forest Hills.
Because the city maintains its own permitting and code requirements, contractors arriving from Nashville or Brentwood sometimes miss access-panel specs or pull the wrong permits. Our technicians know Forest Hills building department expectations and arrive prepared to meet them without delay.
Our Main Forest Hills Services
Forest Hills homeowners call us most often for these three services, each with its own dedicated page and local pricing.
Air Duct Cleaning in Forest Hills
We clean the full supply and return network using Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines to dislodge and extract dust, pollen, and buildup from vintage flex duct without damaging it. Forest Hills jobs often require careful navigation of low-clearance attics and thorough cleaning of older air handlers that newer crews might skip. Air Duct Cleaning in Forest Hills

Dryer Vent Cleaning in Forest Hills
Dryer vent cleaning here addresses lint accumulation in longer duct runs common to ranch and two-story layouts from the 1960s – 80s, with exterior terminations that can clog with spring pollen and fall leaf debris. We clear the full run from appliance to termination and verify airflow with a meter reading. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Forest Hills

Duct Sealing in Forest Hills
Duct sealing targets the unsealed joints and deteriorated connections we find in attic runs that bleed conditioned air into unconditioned space. We apply mastic sealant and mechanical fasteners to close gaps, then test for leakage reduction, a step that pays particular dividends in Forest Hills homes with ducts routed through hot summers and cold winters above the ceiling.
