Fast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Dallas
Air duct cleaning in Dallas typically runs $350 – $650 for a full single-family home system, and most jobs are completed in a half day. The dust, pollen, and construction debris that blow across the metroplex settle in ductwork fast, which means Dallas homeowners often need cleaning more frequently than folks in cooler Texas cities. We schedule Dallas jobs Monday through Saturday, with a live person answering the phone 24/7 at (361) 309-6223. You’ll get a written price before any work starts, and every job is covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing.
Why Hollis Air Duct Dallas Is Dallas’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Hollis Air Duct Dallas is part of the Garrison Partners family, and we’ve been in this trade since 2004. Dallas homeowners call us because we run on The Garrison Standard: arrive inside the quoted window, price the job in writing before touching anything, do the work by the book, and leave the site clean. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, so you know exactly who is walking into your home. And when a Dallas job reveals something we did not see on the initial quote, we stop and walk you through it before any additional work happens.
We work all over Dallas, from the brick ranches of Casa View to the pier-and-beam homes in Lake Highlands. That local familiarity matters because duct systems here age differently than they do in newer suburbs. Roy Castellanos leads our Dallas crew, and he has seen enough rusted-through galvanized ductwork in this city to know when a cleaning job needs to turn into a repair conversation. We don’t push unnecessary work. We show you what the camera sees and let you decide.
Styles & brands we work with
Air Duct Repair in Dallas
Air Duct Repair in Dallas usually means sealing disconnected joints, patching rusted metal ducts, or replacing collapsed flex duct under pier-and-beam homes. Older Dallas neighborhoods like Casa View and Lake Highlands are full of 1960s and 70s brick ranch homes with original galvanized ducts that rust through in the attic. When that happens, blown-in insulation gets pulled into the supply registers and distributed through the house. Repair work on a system like that typically runs $150 – $400 per section, depending on access and how much duct needs replacing. A full duct replacement in a Dallas ranch home can run $1,800 – $4,500 depending on the number of runs and accessibility.
When Duct Repair Beats Cleaning
Some Dallas homeowners call for cleaning when the real problem is a disconnected return duct under the house. If a duct has separated, cleaning it won’t fix the hot and cold spots or the musty smell coming from the crawlspace. Our video inspection shows you exactly what the duct looks like before we recommend anything.
Sealing What Dallas Attics Unseal
Attic heat in Dallas can hit 140°F in August, and that repeated expansion and contraction loosens duct connections over time. We seal those joints with duct mastic and foil tape, not duct tape, so conditioned air stays inside the system instead of leaking into the attic.
Ductwork Cleaning in Dallas
Ductwork Cleaning in Dallas’s older homes often means tackling decades of accumulated dust, pet hair, and sometimes mouse droppings in systems that were never designed to be cleaned easily. We use source removal methods with negative-air machines from Nikro and rotary brush systems that physically dislodge debris rather than just blowing it around. A standard whole-home ductwork cleaning in Dallas runs $350 – $650; larger homes with multiple systems or heavily contaminated ducts can push toward $800 – $1,200. Every job includes a camera inspection before and after so you can actually see what we removed.
Flex Duct in Post-War Ranches
Many Dallas homes built between 1950 and 1985 used flexible ductwork that sags, kinks, and collapses under pier-and-beam foundations over time. When that happens, airflow drops and dust settles even faster. Our cleaning process accounts for that sag by adjusting negative-air pressure so we don’t further damage aging flex ducts.
Supply and Return Cleaning
Most Dallas systems have supply ducts in the ceiling or floor and return ducts pulling air back to the blower. Both sides need cleaning, especially returns, since they pull unfiltered air from the house and coat the blower motor with dust. We clean both sides of the system every visit.
Trusted Brands We Service in Dallas
We service and work around all major system types in Dallas, including ductwork that pairs with filtration equipment from Honeywell and Aprilaire, and we use commercial-grade cleaning equipment from Nikro and Abatement Technologies. That matters because older Dallas systems often have thick residential filters or media cabinets that need to be removed and reinstalled properly during cleaning. We stock common filter sizes and replacement parts for Dallas homes, which means we can handle most filter swaps during the same visit instead of making you wait for a special order.

AfterCommon Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Dallas Homes
- Rusted-through galvanized ducts in 1960s – 70s homes. Original metal ducts in Casa View and similar neighborhoods corrode in Dallas’s humidity, letting attic insulation get pulled into living spaces. Cleaning alone can’t fix rust-through, so we pair cleaning with camera inspection to identify what actually needs patching or replacement.
- Collapsed flex duct under pier-and-beam foundations. Many older Dallas homes sit on crawlspaces where animals, moisture, and age take out flex duct runs. Kinked or crushed duct dramatically reduces airflow to back bedrooms and makes the system work harder than it should.
- Dust storms and prairie pollen overloading MERV filters. Dallas sits near open prairie land, and when the wind kicks up, dust loads spike fast. That dust coats blower motors, clogs filters, and shortens the life of HVAC components if not removed regularly.
- Wood heat residue in rural properties outside the city core. Homes on acreage around Dallas that burn wood for supplemental heat get a fine, sticky creosote-tinged dust inside ducts that standard cleaning does not always address fully. We see this often on properties along the eastern and southern edges of the metroplex.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Dallas
Most Dallas homes need duct cleaning every 3 to 5 years, but homes near open prairie land or construction zones may need it every 2 to 3 years. The heavy air conditioning season from April through October cycles huge volumes of dust and pollen through the system. If you have pets, wood heat, or live near unpaved roads, shorten the interval. Call (361) 309-6223 and we will tell you what we would do for your specific house.
Yes. Wood smoke leaves a fine, sticky residue that bonds with dust inside ducts and makes it harder to remove. Homes on acreage around Dallas that burn wood even a few months a year should be cleaned every 2 to 3 years instead of every 3 to 5. If the residue has been there long, a standard cleaning may need to be followed by an antimicrobial treatment. We can talk through that when we inspect.
We clean outbuilding and workshop systems if they’re connected to a central HVAC or forced-air setup. Most standalone workshops with a single ducted heater or cooled air system are straightforward jobs that run $200 – $400. If the outbuilding shares a system with the main house, we include it in the whole-system quote. Tell us about any outbuildings when you call (361) 309-6223 so we quote it correctly the first time.
Rusted-through galvanized metal ductwork in attics, especially in homes built in the 1960s and 70s in neighborhoods like Casa View and Lake Highlands. The rust holes let attic insulation and hot attic air into the ducts, which both drops efficiency and blows fibers into living spaces. Our camera inspection shows you exactly where the rust-through is before any repair is recommended.
Cleaning removes what has already settled in the ducts, but it won’t stop new dust from entering. If you live near an unpaved road, we recommend upgrading to a higher-MERV filter and checking the return-side ductwork for leaks that pull dust in from crawlspaces or attics. We will check that during the visit and show you what we find. Call (361) 309-6223 for a free estimate and we will walk you through it.
