Air Duct Cleaning Company in Shady Hollow, TX
Kestrel Air Duct Cleaning handles air duct and dryer vent work throughout Shady Hollow, TX, and most homes here run between $450 and $900 for a full duct cleaning depending on square footage and how many returns the system has. The tree cover and older custom builds in this community mean the job is rarely a quick once-over. Duct runs in unconditioned attics collect oak pollen, leaf litter, and attic dust in ways newer subdivisions simply don’t. Call (254) 848-6913 and you’ll get a real person and a written price before any work starts.
Why Shady Hollow Homes Are Different
Most Shady Hollow homes were built between the 1970s and early 2000s on large, heavily treed lots. That matters more than people expect. The live oak and cedar canopy drops a steady load of pollen and organic debris into the air, and with air conditioning running from April through October, a lot of that ends up inside the duct system. Ducts here tend to be long runs through hot attics, which puts stress on connections and insulation. We regularly find flex duct that has been crushed or pulled loose above garage additions and converted porches, pulling attic dust and insulation particles straight into the living space. Homes with pier-and-beam foundations add another wrinkle since return air often pulls from crawl spaces that hold their own dust and humidity. None of this is unusual for the area, but it does mean a Shady Hollow job takes longer and rewards a technician who actually looks at the whole system instead of just poking a hose into a few vents.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Shady Hollow Services
Two jobs make up nearly all the calls we get from Shady Hollow homeowners. Each has its own page with full pricing and details.
Air Duct Cleaning in Shady Hollow
The homes here tend to have large custom floor plans with long duct runs, often in unconditioned attics where heat and humidity have been working on the connections for decades. A proper Air Duct Cleaning in Shady Hollow starts with a camera or mirror check of the duct interior, then negative-air extraction, which means we pull air backward through the system under suction so loosened debris flows out to our Nikro unit instead of into your rooms. We follow that with brush agitation to dislodge the compacted dust at the duct walls. The written price covers the whole system, not a per-vent add-on.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Shady Hollow
Dryer vents in this area run long distances from interior laundry rooms to exterior walls, and the lint that accumulates inside them is a real fire risk. Oak pollen and the area’s humidity make that lint stick harder than it does in dry climates. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Shady Hollow clears the full run from the back of the dryer to the exterior cap, including the lint trap bypass, the area behind the removable screen where most blockages start. We check the exterior termination too, because bird and rodent nests are common in the tree-shaded lots here.

No. Duct and dryer vent cleaning is interior maintenance work and no HOA in this area requires approval for it. The only exception would be if a repair requires exterior modifications, like replacing a damaged dryer vent cap with a different style. We’ll flag that if we see it before touching anything.
If we find more than the quote assumed, like a disconnected return or pest intrusion in the duct run, we stop and show you what we found. We’ll give you a revised written price for the additional work before we do any of it. You decide what happens next. The 365-Day Done Right Promise means if the work falls short within a year, we come back and make it right at no charge.
