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 Scenic Oaks, TX
Air duct cleaning in Scenic Oaks typically runs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. The real challenge here isn’t ordinary household dust; it’s the fine limestone particulate and caliche from new construction sites along Scenic Loop Road, combined with cedar pollen loads that turn HVAC returns into allergen traps. Hollis Air Duct Cleaning handles these conditions with rotary brush systems and negative-air machines built for heavy debris, and every job starts with a written price that doesn’t change. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate.
Why Scenic Oaks Homes Are Different
Scenic Oaks sits directly on the Edwards Aquifer recharge zone, and that geology shapes every duct cleaning job we do. The rocky terrain and caliche soil generate fine particulates that standard suburban equipment wasn’t designed to handle. When construction crews break ground on new acreage lots, that limestone dust gets pulled into return plenums and settles deep in ductwork, far beyond what a homeowner vacuum can reach.
The housing stock compounds the problem. Most Scenic Oaks homes are large, custom-built single-family residences on acreage, many dating to the 1990s and 2000s with multi-zone HVAC systems. Those sprawling ranch-style layouts mean long duct runs through unconditioned attics where dust accumulates and pressure imbalances develop. We’ve found return lines in Scenic Oaks homes with three times the debris load of comparable San Antonio properties, simply because of the terrain and construction activity.
Climate adds another layer. Summers are hot and humid enough that systems run nearly year-round, and the cedar pollen season from December through February loads ducts with allergen-rich material. After hard freezes, we’ve also seen condensation issues in attic runs where temperature swings create moisture points. These aren’t generic conditions; they’re the specific pattern we plan for on every Scenic Oaks call.
Our Main Scenic Oaks Services
Scenic Oaks homeowners call us for three core jobs, each shaped by the local conditions above.
Air Duct Cleaning in Scenic Oaks
We clean the full supply and return network with Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines, pulling limestone dust, cedar pollen, and construction debris out of long attic runs. Every job includes before-and-after photos of your own ducts, not stock images. Air Duct Cleaning in Scenic Oaks covers the full process and what to expect.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Scenic Oaks
Long vent runs through unconditioned attic space are common here, and lint buildup in those extended lines is a real fire hazard. We clean the full run from dryer to termination, check airflow with a meter, and verify the exterior cap. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Scenic Oaks has the details.
Duct Sealing in Scenic Oaks
Pressure imbalances in sprawling multi-zone systems waste energy and pull attic debris into living spaces. We seal leaks with mastic and metal-backed tape, then test to confirm the seal holds. Duct Sealing in Scenic Oaks explains how we target the leaks that matter.
