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 Lago Vista, TX
Most Lago Vista homeowners pay between $350 and $650 for a whole-house air duct cleaning, with dryer vent runs adding $120 to $220 and full duct sealing ranging from $800 to $2,400 depending on system size. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and we’ve built our work around the specific problems this Highland Lakes terrain creates: limestone dust that abrades flex duct from the inside, cedar pollen that bakes into attic runs during 100°F days, and the mold that follows when north-facing hillside ducts stay damp for days after rain. If you’re seeing dust settle faster than it should, or your HVAC runs longer than it used to, call us at (361) 326-5060. We’ll give you a written price before any work starts, and we back every job with our 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Why Lago Vista Homes Are Different
Lago Vista sits on the limestone shelf of the Highland Lakes, and that geology doesn’t stay outside. The calcium-rich dust is fine, abrasive, and relentless. It infiltrates through soffits, around poorly sealed plenums, and through the original flex duct that most 1980s and 1990s ranch homes here were built with. We’ve opened systems in Highland Lake Estates where the interior duct walls looked sandblasted. That same limestone dust accelerates wear on blower motors and coats evaporator coils, which is why our crews always inspect the air handler during a duct cleaning, not just the runs.
The temperature swings are the other factor. A 40°F drop from afternoon to midnight in January forces expansion and contraction at every joint and boot. Original installations here rarely used mastic sealing; they relied on tape that degrades. Once a gap opens, cedar pollen pulls in during the December through March season, then summer humidity lets mold colonize the debris layer. In hillside neighborhoods, orientation matters. North-facing attic ducts stay wet longer after rain. South-facing runs dry fast but bake pollen into a crust that standard vacuuming won’t touch. We diagnose direction before we pick a tool.
Most local HOAs, including those in Highland Lake Estates, require 24-hour notice for service vehicles but do not mandate permits for standard residential duct cleaning. We handle that notification when you book.
Our Main Lago Vista Services
These are the three jobs Lago Vista homeowners call us for most often. Each has its own page with full pricing, process details, and local specifics.
Air Duct Cleaning in Lago Vista
We clean the full supply and return network, from the plenum to every boot, using a Rotobrush rotary brush system for the main trunk and a Nikro negative-air machine to maintain suction so debris doesn’t escape into your living space. In Lago Vista, we pay special attention to attic flex duct: the limestone dust here embeds in the corrugated interior and standard vacuuming leaves residue. Our rotary brush scrubs it loose, then the negative-air unit pulls it out. We finish with a written inspection report and before-and-after photos of your own ducts. Air Duct Cleaning in Lago Vista covers full pricing and what to expect on the day.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lago Vista
Lint buildup in dryer vents is a genuine fire hazard, and Lago Vista’s older ranch homes often have long vent runs through unconditioned attic space where temperature swings create condensation that mats lint into dense blockages. We use rotary brushes and high-velocity air tools to clear the full run, including the exterior termination, then verify airflow with a meter. If your dryer takes more than one cycle to finish a load, or if you smell burning lint, this is the call to make. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lago Vista has full details and pricing.
Duct Sealing in Lago Vista
Cleaning removes what’s already inside; sealing stops new contamination from entering. We apply mastic sealant at every plenum joint, boot connection, and penetrations point, then test with a duct blaster to verify leakage reduction. In Lago Vista, this matters more than in most markets because the limestone dust and pollen load is so high, and because the original flex duct in most homes was never properly sealed at installation. A sealed system also improves efficiency: your HVAC doesn’t pull 130°F attic air through gaps every time the blower cycles. Duct Sealing in Lago Vista explains the full process and typical costs.

Either way, you’ll get one flat price per system, written down before we start, and it won’t change when we arrive.
