Air Duct Cleaning Company in Alamo, CA
Air duct repair is what most Alamo homeowners call us about first, and the reason is usually visible before we open a single register. Estate homes in 94507 sit under heavy oak and eucalyptus canopy, and after a wind event the return plenums pack with leaf litter, pollen and wildfire ash. Custom homes with multiple HVAC zones and long, hidden chases make that worse, because debris has nowhere to drop out and everything to settle into. We work on the whole system, not just the visible runs. Call (877) 212-3243 for a free estimate.
Why Alamo Homes Are Different
Alamo isn’t a tract subdivision, and ductwork here doesn’t behave like it. The housing stock runs from 1960s custom builds through 2000s semi-custom homes on lots of half an acre to two-plus acres. That means multiple air handlers on one property, duct runs measured in tens of feet rather than a quick loop through a ceiling, and in some older homes original rigid metal ductwork that has never been opened up.
The canopy is the other half of the story. Oak and eucalyptus shed constantly into gutters, eaves and attic vents, and fine leaf grit pulls into return-air plenums and register boots. Hillside lots collect what flat ground doesn’t. Then summer arrives hot and dry, Diablo Valley wildfire smoke drifts through, oak pollen peaks, and the first real heat wave forces the AC on. That’s when homeowners notice the smell, the dust on the registers, or the room that won’t cool. By then the buildup has been accumulating for seasons, not weeks.

Our Main Alamo Services
Two jobs come up more than any other on Alamo properties: cleaning out a duct system that has collected years of leaf litter and ash, and clearing a dryer vent that has never been professionally touched.
Air Duct Cleaning in Alamo
Cleaning an Alamo home starts with a room-by-room inventory, because estates with several zones and custom chases can’t be handled from a single hookup. We agitate the duct walls with a Rotobrush brush system, then pull the loosened debris into a Nikro HEPA collector so it leaves the system instead of the ceiling. Abatement Technologies negative-air filtration keeps fine ash and pollen contained while we work. If you want the full method and what it covers, see air duct cleaning.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Alamo
Dryer vents in larger Alamo homes often run long and turn through several elbows before they exit, which is exactly where lint accumulates and airflow drops. We clear the full run and confirm it’s actually moving air at the far end. A clogged dryer vent is a fire risk, not a maintenance item to defer. Long runs, second-floor laundry rooms and vents that terminate on a roof all get the same full-length attention. Details live on our dryer vent cleaning page.
Air Duct Repair in Alamo
Air duct repair in Alamo tends to surface on two kinds of homes: 1960s and 1970s builds where original rigid metal ductwork has separated at the seams, and newer custom homes where a long run through an unconditioned attic or chase has come apart at a joint nobody can see. Add a hot, dry summer and a decade of leaf grit moving through the system, and taped connections fail. We handle Air Duct Repair as a complete system job, which is a step most cleaners won’t take because they stop once the vacuum is off.
Ductwork Repair
Signs you need it
You notice a room that never matches the thermostat, a whistling or roaring register, or dust settling on surfaces right after cleaning.
What it costs in Alamo
Ductwork repair in Alamo typically runs $250 – $650, depending on how many joints, boots or plenum connections need re-sealing and how accessible the runs are.
How we do it
We inspect the full run with the system running, find the separation or crushed section, then re-seal, re-support or reconnect it with proper duct mastic and mechanical fastening rather than tape alone.
Air Duct Replacement
Signs you need it
The ductwork is original 1960s rigid metal that has rusted, collapsed internally, or been patched so many times that sealing it again isn’t worth the effort.
What it costs in Alamo
Air duct replacement in Alamo typically falls in the $1,800 – $4,500 range for a full system, with multi-zone estate homes at the upper end.
How we do it
We measure the existing layout, size the replacement runs to the air handler and each zone, then install and seal the new ductwork and verify airflow at every register before we call it done.
What Air Duct Repair Costs in Alamo
| Item | Typical range in Alamo |
|---|---|
| Ductwork repair (joints, boots, plenum re-seal) | $250 – $650 |
| Air duct replacement, full system | $1,800 – $4,500 |
| Air duct cleaning, whole system | $400 – $1,200 |
Repair pricing climbs with the number of HVAC zones, how much of the ductwork hides inside finished chases, and whether the runs are rigid metal that can be re-sealed or flex duct that has to come out. The written estimate sets the final price before any work starts, so you’re not guessing.
Do you repair ductwork and clean it in the same visit?
Yes. We clean the system first, then repair what the cleaning reveals, because separated joints and crushed runs are far easier to find once the debris is out of the way.
How do I know if my Alamo home has a duct problem or just a dirty system?
Dirty ductwork smells and dusts. A blocked or disconnected run costs you airflow to one zone while the rest of the house runs fine. We test both during the inspection.
Brands We Service in Alamo
We work with Honeywell and Aprilaire filtration and air-quality products and can recommend upgrades that fit the system already in your Alamo home. Abatement Technologies negative-air units run during cleaning, and we’re familiar with Guardsman components as well. If a part has to be ordered, we’ll tell you the turnaround before you commit.

What Alamo Customers Say
"Did the dryer vent while they were here for a small add on price. The dryer now finishes a load in one cycle instead of two."
- Veronica Delgado"Ran a negative air machine on the whole system rather than the shop vac on a stick that the cheap outfit down the road uses. Showed me the before and after photos from inside the trunk line and it was genuinely disgusting."
- Ruben Mendoza"Job was done well and the house smells better. There was some dust knocked loose around a couple of the registers that I had to wipe down afterward."
- Luis Guzman
