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.

AfterAir Duct Cleaning Company in Fort Lauderdale, FL
Air duct cleaning in Fort Lauderdale runs between $350 and $650 for a typical single-family home, with condo systems starting around $275 due to shorter duct runs. What drives the real cost is the local climate, not the square footage. Fort Lauderdale’s 80% plus humidity and near-constant AC operation from March through November create conditions we don’t see inland: mold and mildew colonization inside ducts is a year-round biological problem, not a seasonal dust buildup. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Garrison Partners family, and we dispatch crews to Fort Lauderdale from our Miami office. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
Why Fort Lauderdale Homes Are Different
Fort Lauderdale’s subtropical climate means air conditioning runs almost continuously for eight months of the year, pushing humid outside air through ductwork that often drops below the dew point. Condensation forms on the interior surfaces of ducts, especially in the slab-on-grade homes common west of US-1 and in the 1960s-era ranch neighborhoods near Plantation. That moisture doesn’t dry out. It feeds mold and mildew that standard dust-removal cleaning won’t touch.
The housing stock here compounds the problem. In Sailboat Bend and Victoria Park, we still find 1920s bungalows with original galvanized ductwork, pitted and porous, that traps moisture. Along the beach and intracoastal, high-rise condos built before 1990 share vertical chases between units, so one neighbor’s moisture problem becomes everyone’s odor problem. After hurricanes or even extended afternoon thunderstorms, riverfront homes in the 33301 and 33304 ZIP codes often develop musty smells that return within weeks unless we correct airflow and humidity at the source, not just clean the visible mold. This is why Fort Lauderdale jobs frequently require antimicrobial treatment and moisture-control recommendations that technicians in drier climates never need to consider.
Our Main Fort Lauderdale Services
Most Fort Lauderdale homeowners call us for one of three jobs, each shaped by the local climate and housing stock.
Air Duct Cleaning in Fort Lauderdale
Our air duct cleaning crews in Fort Lauderdale use Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines to dislodge and extract buildup from the entire duct network. In Fort Lauderdale, we pay special attention to evaporator coil pans and secondary drains, because standing water from clogged condensate lines is where mold starts. We also inspect flexible ductwork in older homes for sagging that traps moisture. Every job gets a written price before we start and is covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise.

Dryer Vent Cleaning in Fort Lauderdale
Dryer vent cleaning in Fort Lauderdale addresses lint accumulation that humid air makes cling to duct walls more stubbornly than in dry climates. We see longer vent runs in condos along the intracoastal, where routing through multiple walls creates more friction points and blockage risk. Our technicians use rotary brushes and high-velocity air tools to clear the full run to termination, then verify airflow with a meter. We document before-and-after readings in writing.

Duct Sealing in Fort Lauderdale
Duct sealing in Fort Lauderdale closes the leaks that pull humid attic or crawl space air into the system, raising indoor humidity and forcing the AC to run longer. In older ranch homes west of downtown, we often find disconnected flex duct at plenum connections and deteriorated mastic on metal trunk lines. We seal with duct sealing mastic and mechanical fasteners, then pressure-test to verify the seal holds. This directly reduces the moisture load that feeds mold growth. Duct Sealing in Fort Lauderdale
