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 Kingston, MA
Air duct cleaning in Kingston, MA typically runs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system and is usually completed in three to five hours. Homes here face a specific challenge: coastal sand, salt-laden humidity, and converted seasonal cottages with ductwork that was never designed for year-round HVAC use. At Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, we price every job in writing before we start, back it with our 365-Day Done Right Promise, and dispatch crews who know how Kingston’s coastal conditions affect the air moving through your home. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate.
Why Kingston Homes Are Different
Kingston sits on the South Shore’s coastal pine barrens and cranberry bogs, where sandy soil, high water tables, and salt-laden onshore winds push fine grit and dampness into ductwork in ways inland Massachusetts towns never see. After nor’easters, we regularly find wind-driven sand from the coastal plain pulled into return ducts and outdoor air intakes. Much of the housing stock started as seasonal lakeside cottages around Silver Lake, Indian Pond, and the Jones River watershed before conversion to year-round homes. These properties often have undersized, uninsulated, or partially buried duct runs that trap moisture and sand.
The 1970s – 1990s raised ranches and colonials off Route 3 and Route 106 fare better, but still face the same coastal humidity and salt aerosol that accelerate dust caking inside ducts. Older capes and farmhouses along the Jones River corridor present their own puzzles: decades of modifications layered onto original gravity or oil-fired systems. In Silver Lake-area cottages especially, air handlers in damp crawlspaces leave duct insulation wet for weeks after storms. We factor all of this into how we scope, price, and execute a job in Kingston.
Our Main Kingston Services
Most Kingston homeowners call us for one of three jobs. Each has its own dedicated page with full detail on what we do, what it costs, and how we handle Kingston’s specific conditions.
Air Duct Cleaning in Kingston
We clean supply and return ductwork using a rotary brush system paired with negative-air containment to keep debris from circulating back into your home. In Kingston, this means extra attention to sand accumulation in returns near coastal-facing walls and moisture-prone crawlspace runs around Silver Lake and Indian Pond. We inspect every access point, run the full length of each branch, and show you before-and-after footage from our camera system. Air Duct Cleaning in Kingston covers our full process, pricing, and what to expect on the day.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Kingston
Lint buildup in dryer vents is a leading cause of house fires, and Kingston’s coastal humidity makes lint cling to duct walls more stubbornly than in drier climates. We use a combination of rotary brushes and high-velocity air tools to clear the full run from appliance to termination, including roof and soffit exits common in converted cottages. If your dryer takes longer than one cycle or the exterior hood barely moves air, the vent is likely restricted. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Kingston has the full breakdown.
Duct Sealing in Kingston
Leaky ducts waste 20 – 30% of heated and cooled air before it reaches your rooms. In Kingston, we see this problem amplified in converted seasonal homes where original duct runs were cobbled together without proper sealing, and in crawlspace systems where coastal humidity degrades old tape and mastic. We apply duct sealing mastic and mechanical fasteners to close gaps at joints, returns, and plenum connections, then pressure-test to verify the seal. Duct Sealing in Kingston explains our method and what improvement you can expect.
