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, WA
Air duct cleaning in Kenmore typically runs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. Kenmore’s inventory of mid-century homes with original galvanized steel ductwork makes this work different from neighboring cities, where newer flex-duct systems dominate. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and our crews handle the corrosion, rust flakes, and disconnected joints that come standard in 1950s – 1970s Kenmore ranch and split-level homes. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free written estimate.
Why Kenmore Homes Are Different
Kenmore sits at the north end of Lake Washington, where the Sammamish River corridor traps fog and keeps humidity elevated through the damp season from October into April. That moisture doesn’t stay outside. It seeps into crawlspaces and basements, finds its way into unlined galvanized steel ducts, and accelerates rust and mold growth that flex-duct systems in newer Bothell or Kirkland builds rarely face.
The 1960s – 70s homes along the river corridor often route ductwork through crawlspaces where rodent activity and river fog compound the problem. We’ve pulled nests, moisture-damaged insulation, and corroded metal from these runs. Up in the Inglewood and Northshore hillside neighborhoods, the terrain changes but the housing stock doesn’t, those same long steel runs working harder to push air through half-century of accumulated debris.
Galvanized steel ducts have a service life. In Kenmore, many have reached it. Cleaning them isn’t just about dust removal; it’s about assessing whether the system is intact enough to continue in service or needs sealing, repair, or replacement planning.
Our Main Kenmore Services
Most Kenmore homeowners call us for one of three jobs, each with its own page and pricing details.
Air Duct Cleaning in Kenmore
We clean the full supply and return network with Rotobrush rotary brush systems and, where appropriate, Nikro negative-air machines to contain debris at the source. In Kenmore, this means working around rust scale inside original galvanized runs and checking for disconnected joints that leak conditioned air into crawlspaces. Every job starts with a written price that doesn’t move. Air Duct Cleaning in Kenmore
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Kenmore
Lint buildup in dryer vents is a fire hazard, and Kenmore’s older homes often have longer vent runs through walls or crawlspaces that compound the risk. We clear the full line from appliance to termination, inspect for proper airflow, and flag any damaged or outdated venting material. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Kenmore
Duct Sealing in Kenmore
Disconnected joints and corroded seams in aging galvanized systems leak heated and cooled air before it reaches rooms. We seal accessible ductwork with mastic and appropriate reinforcement, reducing energy waste and improving room-to-room balance. This is often the right follow-up when cleaning reveals systemic deterioration. Duct Sealing in Kenmore
