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 Narberth, PA
Air duct cleaning in Narberth, PA typically costs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system, with most jobs scheduled within a few business days. Hollis Air Duct Cleaning handles the distinct challenges of Narberth’s century-old housing stock, where original ductwork retrofitted into 1920s Colonials and twin homes demands careful, low-pressure cleaning methods. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work begins.
Why Narberth Homes Are Different
Narberth’s housing inventory is dominated by 1890s – 1930s single-family homes and twin homes, many with slate roofs, plaster walls, and original or minimally updated ductwork. That matters because the ductwork we encounter is rarely a single system. It’s usually a patchwork of original sheet-metal trunks and later flex-duct additions, installed piecemeal over decades. We clean these with rotary brush systems running at controlled speeds, not aggressive high-pressure methods that could disturb aging materials.
The 1920s twin homes along residential streets here often share a single furnace flue or have duct runs that cross property lines inside party walls. We’ve arrived at jobs where the homeowner’s “ductwork” technically extends into a neighbor’s wall cavity. Our technicians map the full system before starting, and we’ll flag anything that needs coordination with adjoining owners.
Narberth’s humid, four-season climate compounds the problem. Hot, sticky summers and cold, damp winters create condensation inside unsealed metal ducts, which feeds biological growth. Spring pollen from mature street oaks and maples, plus fall leaf debris, works into outdoor intakes. In older systems without proper filtration, that debris accumulates for years. Neighboring towns like Ardmore or Wynnewood have more post-war construction with better-insulated, standardized ductwork. Narberth’s pre-war inventory is genuinely one-of-a-kind on every job.
Our Main Narberth Services
Most Narberth homeowners call us for one of three jobs, each with its own local considerations and pricing.
Air Duct Cleaning in Narberth
We clean the full supply and return duct network using a Rotobrush rotary brush system paired with HEPA containment. In Narberth, that means working around original plaster ceiling chases, tight basement headroom, and the occasional asbestos-containing duct insulation that requires low-agitation methods. We photograph the interior before and after, and the price is written down before we touch anything. Air Duct Cleaning in Narberth covers full-home systems, partial cleanings, and post-renovation remediation.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Narberth
Dryer vent blockages are common in Narberth’s older homes because original vent runs were often routed through exterior masonry walls with minimal clearance. Lint accumulates in horizontal runs and 90-degree elbows that newer homes avoid. We use Nikro negative-air equipment and rotary whips to clear the full line from appliance to termination, then verify airflow with a meter. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Narberth includes rooftop and through-wall terminations.
Duct Sealing in Narberth
Many Narberth homes lose 20 – 30% of conditioned air through gaps in original duct seams and failed tape joints. We apply duct sealing mastic and mechanical fasteners to metal trunks, plus aerosol sealant for inaccessible runs. In homes with party-wall duct crossings, sealing also prevents air from pressurizing neighboring cavities. Duct Sealing in Narberth is often paired with cleaning for older systems that have never been properly sealed.
