Air Duct Cleaning Company in Houston, TX
Houston’s ductwork works harder than almost anywhere else in the country. Our subtropical climate pushes air conditioners to run from March through October, cycling millions of cubic feet of humid, pollen-heavy air through ducts every year. That constant load, combined with homes ranging from 1960s ranch houses in Meyerland to tightly sealed new builds in Cypress, means ducts in Houston collect dust, mold, and construction debris faster than homeowners expect. Hollis Air Duct Houston handles air duct cleaning, dryer vent cleaning, and duct sealing across the metro, with written pricing before any work starts. Call (713) 936-5800 for a free estimate.
Why Houston Homes Are Different
Houston’s housing stock spans two very different eras, and each one has its own duct problems. Older homes in Meyerland, Sharpstown, and the inner-loop neighborhoods often still have original galvanized metal ducts. Those systems leak at the joints, pull attic air into the living space, and trap decades of dust and debris. Newer homes in Katy, Cypress, and The Woodlands were built tight for energy efficiency, but that tightness works against you when construction dust from the build itself gets sealed inside the system. Combine either scenario with Houston’s humidity, and you get conditions where mold and mildew grow inside ducts faster than in drier cities like Dallas or Austin.
The region’s pollen load adds another layer. Pine, oak, and ragweed pollen blow through Houston for months at a stretch, and a good portion of it ends up inside return ducts, where it recirculates through the house. Add in the construction boom along the Grand Parkway and Highway 290 corridors, and you have dust entering homes from both outside and inside the envelope. That’s why duct cleaning in Houston is less of a one-time project and more of a recurring maintenance item for homeowners who pay attention to what’s moving through their air.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Houston Services
Most Houston homeowners call us for one of three jobs. Each service has its own page with full pricing, process details, and local specifics.
Air Duct Cleaning in Houston
Houston’s humidity turns ordinary duct dust into a sticking problem. Particulate that would blow through a dry system instead clings to duct walls, building up layer after layer until airflow drops and the system works harder than it should. We use negative-air machines and rotary brush systems to pull that buildup out without scattering it through the house. After Harvey, we also saw a wave of Houston homes with silt and mold inside ducts that looked dry from the outside. Read the full breakdown on our Air Duct Cleaning in Houston page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Houston
Dryer vents in Houston clog with lint faster than in drier climates because humidity makes lint stick to the vent walls instead of blowing through. Houston homes with laundry rooms on interior walls deal with longer vent runs, which means more surface area for buildup. A restricted dryer vent drives up drying times and creates a fire hazard that most homeowners never see until it’s pointed out. Our technicians check the full run from dryer to exterior termination. Get the details on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Houston page.
Duct Sealing in Houston
Leaky ducts are a quiet tax on Houston homeowners. Older metal systems in Houston lose conditioned air through seams and joints, pulling in attic heat and humidity all summer long. That means your AC runs longer, your electric bill climbs, and rooms at the end of the run never quite cool down. We seal accessible ductwork with mastic and tape rated for HVAC use, cutting that loss at the source. Learn what the job involves on our Duct Sealing in Houston page.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Houston
Most whole-home duct cleaning jobs in Houston take between 3 and 6 hours, depending on the size of the house and the condition of the ductwork. Older homes in Houston with original galvanized ducts may take longer because more buildup has accumulated over the years. We’ll give you a time window before we arrive and a realistic finish time before we start.
Clear access to the furnace or air handler and any return grilles before we arrive. That’s usually enough. Our technicians bring drop cloths and shoe covers, and we leave the work area as clean as we found it. If you have a home in Houston with the air handler in the attic, just make sure the attic access is reachable.
Duct cleaning removes the organic material mold feeds on, and sanitizing treats the surfaces where mold tends to grow in Houston’s humid climate. We also check for water damage inside ducts and at the condensate drain, since that’s where moisture problems usually start. If we find standing water or a drainage issue, we’ll tell you before any cleaning work starts. Call (713) 936-5800 for a free estimate.
