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 Kenmore, NY
Air duct cleaning in Kenmore, NY typically costs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system and is scheduled by appointment, not dispatched for same-day arrival. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and we’ve built our work around the realities of Kenmore’s housing stock: mid-century homes with galvanized steel ductwork that’s now 50 – 70 years old, corroding from the inside, and moving less air than it was designed to. Our crews run Rotobrush rotary systems and Nikro negative-air machines, and every job starts with a written price that doesn’t change once we’re inside. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate.
Why Kenmore Homes Are Different
Kenmore’s housing market is dominated by 1950s – 1970s ranch and split-level construction, much of it built during the Boeing boom with original forced-air furnaces and long runs of unlined galvanized steel ductwork. These systems weren’t designed for today’s filtration standards, and after half a century of moisture cycling, the internal lining flakes off and rust accumulates at the low points. In the 1960s – 70s homes along the Sammamish River corridor, ductwork often routes through crawlspaces where river fog keeps humidity elevated and rodent activity accelerates contamination. That combination of metal degradation, moisture intrusion, and biological growth is a pattern we rarely see in nearby hillside neighborhoods with newer flex-duct installations.
Kenmore’s climate doesn’t help. From October through April, the wet, mild weather and dense tree canopy keep outdoor humidity high, which drives mold and mildew growth inside ductwork. The same moisture causes rust in older metal ducts, turning what should be smooth air passages into rough, narrowed channels that restrict airflow and force furnaces to run longer. When we open a system in a Kenmore crawlspace, we regularly find disconnected joints where the original tape has failed, pulling conditioned air into spaces where it does no good.
Our Main Kenmore Services
Most Kenmore homeowners call us for one of three jobs, each handled with The Garrison Standard: written price first, background-checked uniformed technicians, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise on every job.
Air Duct Cleaning in Kenmore
We clean the full supply and return network with a Rotobrush rotary brush system that scrubs the interior walls of galvanized steel ducts, followed by a Nikro negative-air machine that pulls loosened debris out of the system and into a HEPA-filtered containment unit. In Kenmore’s older homes, we pay particular attention to rust scale and flaking internal coating, which standard shop-vac methods often leave behind. Air Duct Cleaning in Kenmore is scheduled by appointment, with a written quote provided before any equipment enters your home.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Kenmore
Dryer vent cleaning in Kenmore addresses lint accumulation in the transition duct and exterior termination, which is a genuine fire hazard when airflow is restricted. Many Kenmore homes have longer vent runs through crawlspaces or walls to reach exterior walls, and these configurations trap more lint than short through-wall terminations. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Kenmore includes airflow testing before and after to verify the restriction is cleared.
Duct Sealing in Kenmore
Duct sealing in Kenmore applies mastic sealant and mechanical fasteners to joints and seams in the duct network, stopping the conditioned-air losses that inflate heating and cooling bills. In homes with crawlspace routing, we often find separations at the plenum and trunk connections where vibration and moisture have degraded the original seal. Duct Sealing in Kenmore is priced by system size, with the full scope written down before work begins.
