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 Mill Creek East, WA
Homeowners in Mill Creek East typically pay $350 – $650 for whole-system air duct cleaning, with most jobs completed in a single visit because crews are dispatched from our Seattle office and carry the full equipment roster locally. Mill Creek East presents a specific challenge: homes built in the 1980s and 1990s were sealed tight for energy efficiency, which traps pollen, dust, and moisture inside ductwork rather than letting it leak out. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Garrison Partners family, and we’ve built our process around the realities of tightly sealed suburban homes like these. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
Why Mill Creek East Homes Are Different
Most Mill Creek East houses went up during the 1980s and 1990s boom, which means forced-air systems with flexible duct runs tucked into attics and crawlspaces. That flex duct was builder-grade to begin with, and thirty-plus years later it sags at the low points, collects dust where it kinks, and sometimes pulls loose at the collar connections. The tight construction that won energy credits back then now works against air quality: there’s nowhere for contaminants to go but around and around the same loop.
The North Creek watershed and the heavy tree canopy around Mill Creek Town Center load the air with Douglas fir, cedar, and alder pollen each spring and fall. That pollen gets pulled straight into return ducts. In the damp months, we’ve found condensation inside poorly insulated attic ducts, and in some homes a small roof leak has soaked duct insulation long before the homeowner smelled anything wrong. We pull the grilles and look, because hidden mold in a tight house doesn’t stay hidden forever.

Air Duct Cleaning in Mill Creek East
We clean the full supply and return system with a Rotobrush rotary brush and Nikro negative-air machine, pulling debris out rather than blowing it around. In Mill Creek East, we pay special attention to flex duct low points where dust settles and to return trunks that run through unconditioned attics. Every job gets before-and-after photos of your own ducts. Air Duct Cleaning in Mill Creek East
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Mill Creek East
Dryer vents here run through exterior walls or up through roof jacks, and the wet Pacific Northwest climate lets lint cake onto duct walls where it meets cooler air. We clear the full run from back of dryer to termination, check airflow with a meter, and flag any flex transition hose that needs replacing. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Mill Creek East
Duct Sealing in Mill Creek East
Even tight Mill Creek East homes leak at joints and collars. We seal accessible ductwork with mastic and mesh, targeting the connections that pull attic air into the system or dump conditioned air into crawlspaces. The goal is cleaner air and more even temperatures room to room, without replacing ductwork that just needs proper sealing. Duct Sealing in Mill Creek East
