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.

Why Tomball Homes Are Different
Tomball’s explosive post-Grand Parkway buildout created tens of thousands of homes now hitting the 15-to-20-year mark with flex duct systems aging in unconditioned attics that routinely reach 130-140°F. That heat degrades inner liners and collapses runs, a pattern so common in northwest Harris County that many local HVAC pros treat duct inspection as standard for any home built between 2000 and 2010.
The housing stock splits sharply: a small older core of 1960s-1980s homes with original fiberglass duct board or early metal systems, and massive post-2000 master-planned subdivisions that used flex duct almost universally. Gulf moisture funneled inland keeps relative humidity high and HVAC systems running 8-9 months yearly, so any mold or particulate circulates nearly year-round. Post-Harvey moisture intrusion seeded mold in many attic systems that owners still haven’t addressed.
Our Main Tomball Services
Most Tomball homeowners who call us need one of these three services:
Air Duct Cleaning in Tomball
We clean the full duct network, from plenum (the main distribution box) through every duct run to each register, using negative-pressure extraction that pulls debris out rather than pushing it deeper. In Tomball’s post-2000 subdivisions, we regularly find collapsed flex duct sections that must be repaired before cleaning can be effective. Air Duct Cleaning in Tomball includes our full photo record.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Tomball
Lint accumulation in dryer vents is a leading cause of house fires, and Tomball’s high humidity makes clumps stick and harden faster than in drier climates. We remove the full blockage and inspect the exterior termination for proper airflow. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Tomball takes 45-90 minutes.
Duct Repair & Sealing in Tomball
When flex duct liners crumble or seams separate, cleaning alone won’t fix the airflow loss and attic contamination. We replace damaged sections and seal leaks with mastic, not tape, then verify with a pressure test. Duct Repair & Sealing in Tomball restores system efficiency.

BeforeAfterHVAC Cleaning in Tomball
Tomball’s 8-9 month cooling season forces evaporator coils and blowers to run continuously in high humidity, making microbial growth and debris buildup inevitable. In post-2000 tract homes, we regularly find coils clogged with a mat of dust, pollen, and mold that restricts airflow and raises energy bills by 15-25% before the homeowner notices. HVAC Cleaning addresses the full air handling system, not just ducts.
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
Signs you need it
Ice buildup on refrigerant lines, weak airflow from vents, or cooling that can’t keep up on 95°F Tomball afternoons.
What it costs in Tomball
Evaporator coil cleaning typically runs $280-$450.
How we do it
We access the coil through the air handler, apply foaming cleaner, rinse with low-pressure water, and photograph before and after through the access panel.
Blower Cleaning
Signs you need it
Vibration or noise from the air handler, uneven airflow between rooms, or dust puffing from vents when the system cycles on.
What it costs in Tomball
Blower assembly cleaning typically runs $220-$380.
How we do it
We remove the blower wheel and housing, clean each blade and the motor housing, balance the assembly, and reinstall with a fresh filter.
What HVAC Cleaning Costs in Tomball
| Item | Typical range in Tomball |
|---|---|
| Evaporator coil cleaning | $280-$450 |
| Blower assembly cleaning | $220-$380 |
| Full HVAC system cleaning (coil + blower + ducts) | $580-$920 |
How do I know my HVAC needs cleaning versus just my ducts?
If your vents blow weakly, your energy bill has climbed without rate changes, or you smell must when the AC cycles, the coil or blower is likely dirty. Call (346) 248-1474 and we’ll inspect both.
Can HVAC cleaning fix rooms that never cool evenly?
Often yes, when the cause is a dirty blower or blocked coil rather than duct leaks, though we check both during the same visit.
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Tomball
Tomball’s combination of aging flex duct, 130°F+ attic heat, and year-round humidity creates ideal conditions for mold and bacteria colonization inside the air distribution system. Post-Harvey moisture intrusion in many northwest Harris County attics seeded problems that homeowners may not have discovered yet, making proactive treatment more common here than in drier markets. Air Quality & Sanitizing targets biological contamination that cleaning alone won’t remove.
Mold Treatment
Signs you need it
Visible mold around vents, a persistent earthy smell when the system runs, or family members with unexplained respiratory symptoms that worsen at home.
What it costs in Tomball
Whole-system mold treatment typically runs $450-$780.
How we do it
We apply EPA-registered antimicrobial through the duct system using a fogging device, treat the evaporator coil and plenum directly, and provide lab-verifiable before-and-after photo documentation.
UV Light Installation
Signs you need it
Recurring mold despite prior cleaning, or a home in a Tomball subdivision where neighbors report similar issues.
What it costs in Tomball
UV-C lamp installation typically runs $320-$550 per unit.
How we do it
We mount a UV-C lamp inside the air handler near the coil, wire it to the blower circuit, and show you the installation point in your photo record.
What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Tomball
| Item | Typical range in Tomball |
|---|---|
| Whole-system mold treatment | $450-$780 |
| UV-C lamp installation | $320-$550 |
| Bacteria sanitizing (whole system) | $380-$620 |
Is mold treatment safe for pets and kids?
We use EPA-registered products rated for occupied spaces, ventilate thoroughly after application, and provide the safety data sheet on request. Call (346) 248-1474 for product specifics.
How long does UV light last before replacement?
UV-C lamps typically need replacement every 12-18 months; we note the install date in your written job record and call when replacement is due.
