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 Surfside, CA
Air duct cleaning in Surfside, CA typically costs $280 – $520 for a whole-system cleaning in a mid-rise condo unit, with most jobs scheduled within a week and completed in one visit. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Garrison Partners family, and we handle the unique challenges of Surfside’s dense oceanfront housing: vertical duct chases shared between units, salt-corroded boots and dampers, and the logistics of working in buildings where a single truck can’t park outside. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
Why Surfside Homes Are Different
Surfside is a built-out oceanfront town where nearly all air duct cleaning happens in densely packed mid- and high-rise condos, so access, negative-pressure containment in common corridors, and coordination with building management are as important as the cleaning itself. Nowhere else in South Florida does so much duct work run vertically through shared chases in buildings this close to the salt spray.
Most of Surfside’s housing is post-war condominium towers and low-rise apartment buildings from the 1950s through 1980s, with original or partially updated galvanized and flex duct systems. Single-family homes are relatively rare and mostly older, small-footprint lots. The year-round warm, humid, salt-laden ocean air keeps HVAC systems running constantly and promotes biological growth and rust inside ducts and on components, so cleaning schedules here lean toward 2-3 years rather than the longer intervals typical of drier markets.
In the beachfront towers along Collins Avenue, salt corrosion often damages duct boots, dampers, and plenum connections, so a routine cleaning call sometimes turns into a rust-repair referral. We carry common replacement parts for these conditions and coordinate with building engineers when access panels or fire dampers need attention.
Our Main Surfside Services
Surfside homeowners call us most often for these three services, each handled with The Garrison Standard of written pricing, background-checked uniformed technicians, and our 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Air Duct Cleaning in Surfside
We clean supply and return ductwork in Surfside condos using Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines to contain debris in shared vertical chases. Because many buildings here have original galvanized duct with decades of coastal humidity buildup, we inspect boots and dampers for salt corrosion before we start. Every job gets a written price upfront and before-and-after photos of your own ducts. Air Duct Cleaning in Surfside
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Surfside
Dryer vent cleaning in Surfside’s multi-story buildings often requires rooftop or mechanical-room access rather than a simple exterior wall termination. Lint accumulation is accelerated by the constant humidity, and restricted airflow is a genuine fire hazard in buildings with hundreds of units. We clear the full run, verify airflow with a meter, and provide written documentation for your building management if required. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Surfside
Duct Sealing in Surfside
Duct sealing in Surfside addresses the leaks that develop at corroded plenum connections and flex-duct joints in salt-air environments. We apply duct sealing mastic and mechanical fasteners to restore system pressure, which matters in condos where one leaky chase can affect multiple units’ efficiency. The work is priced per system, agreed in writing before we begin, and covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Duct Sealing in Surfside

Yes. Surfside’s constant humidity and salt spray accelerate biological growth and corrosion inside ductwork compared to inland markets. We recommend inspection every 2-3 years rather than the 4-5 year intervals typical of drier climates, especially in pre-1980 buildings with original galvanized duct.
