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.
Fast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Dallas
Air duct cleaning in Dallas typically runs $380-$720 for a full residential system and $1,200-$2,800 for commercial properties, with most jobs completed in a single visit. Our crews dispatch from the Dallas-Fort Worth office and carry equipment for both standard cleaning and the under-slab duct issues common to older Dallas neighborhoods. Call (469) 405-6133 for a written estimate before any work begins.
We’ve worked in Dallas homes since 2013, and the duct systems here are unlike those in most other Texas cities. The combination of expansive Blackland Prairie clay, decades of slab-foundation construction, and near-constant HVAC runtime creates contamination pathways that don’t exist elsewhere. Our Air Duct Cleaning team documents every run with before-and-after photography so you can see what was actually removed, not just hear a vacuum run.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Dallas Is Dallas’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
CleanRun is independently owned and operated under the Haven Standard, and we’ve served more than 52,000 homes since 2013 - every one with a written price before work started and a documented photo record when the crew left. In Dallas specifically, our reputation rests on finding what coupon cleaners miss: cracked under-slab ducts pulling clay and moisture into the system, degraded flex duct in 150°F attics, and the joint separations that make standard cleaning pointless until they’re secured.
Tomas Reyes built this company on the principle that a customer should see the problem before paying to fix it. That means camera inspection, written scope, written price - Haven Standard Clause 1 - and a 365-Day Done Right Promise backed in writing on every job. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and identified by name before arrival under Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews.
Dallas customers call us after the $79 coupon visit because they want evidence, not theater. We deliver a Documented Photo Record of every duct run as a standard deliverable, not an upsell. You can verify our equipment independently - Rotobrush, Nikro, Abatement Technologies, Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman - and we’ll show you the manufacturer’s spec sheet if you ask.
Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in Dallas

Residential Duct Cleaning
Most Dallas homes we service fall into two categories: 1960s-1980s slab-foundation ranches in Casa View, Lake Highlands, or Pleasant Grove with under-slab ductwork, or 1990s-2000s construction with flex duct routed through attics that bake at 150-160°F through July and August. Each requires a different approach. For slab-era homes, we camera-inspect before agitation to confirm the duct is intact - cleaning a cracked under-slab run just distributes clay silt through your supply registers. For attic flex systems, we secure joints and check liner integrity before negative-pressure extraction so we don’t dislodge material that’s already failing.

Commercial Duct Cleaning
Dallas commercial properties - medical offices near Medical District, retail along Walnut Hill Lane, restaurants in Deep Ellum - face compounded loads from near-year-round cooling and high occupancy turnover. We quote commercial work by the system, not by the vent, with a written scope that specifies which air handlers, return plenums (the collection box where return air enters the unit), and supply branches are included. Every commercial job gets the same photo documentation as residential, delivered as a job record you can present to inspectors or insurers.

Supply Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts push conditioned air to your registers - the vents you feel blowing in each room. In Dallas, supply systems in older homes often show the worst contamination because they’re the path of least resistance for under-slab infiltration. When clay cracks a supply run, the blower’s positive pressure forces soil and moisture into the duct, where it accumulates at elbows and reductions. Our supply cleaning includes register-level photography and, if we find infiltration, a written recommendation for sealing or repair with the price stated before any additional work.

Return Duct Cleaning
Return ducts pull air back to the air handler through larger grilles, usually in hallways or common areas. In Dallas slab homes, returns are more vulnerable than supplies because they’re under negative pressure - they actively draw from any crack or breach. We’ve pulled return access panels in Pleasant Grove and found standing water where clay displacement sheared the duct wall. Return Duct Cleaning without a camera inspection first is, in our view, negligent in this market. We scope, document, then clean - or we tell you the duct needs repair first and give you that price in writing.

Full System Cleaning
A full system cleaning addresses every component: return plenum, blower cabinet, evaporator coil (the A-shaped heat exchanger that cools your air), supply and return duct runs, and registers. In Dallas, this is often the right starting point because partial cleaning leaves contamination that recirculates immediately. We use negative-pressure extraction - a large vacuum attached to the duct system that pulls debris toward the collection unit - combined with agitation tools that knock material loose from duct walls. The full system scope is written, priced, and agreed to before we remove the first panel.

Video Inspection
Our video inspection service uses a self-leveling camera head pushed through the duct run to show you, in real time, what we see. In Dallas, this isn’t optional for slab-era homes - it’s diagnostic. The camera reveals cracks, standing water, disconnected joints, and pest entry that determine whether cleaning will help or make things worse. You receive the video file as part of your job record. If we find a breach that requires repair, we quote sealing or replacement with the same written-price protocol.

AfterTrusted Brands We Service in Dallas
CleanRun technicians arrive with professional-grade equipment from Nikro, Honeywell, and Abatement Technologies - brands you can look up before we start. We don’t use shop vacs with fiberglass wands. Our negative-pressure machines are HEPA-filtered and rated for the containment requirements of actual duct cleaning, not just register dusting. For Dallas customers, this means we can handle both standard residential systems and the heavier contamination loads we find in under-slab breaches or commercial kitchen exhaust tie-ins. Parts and consumables are stocked locally, so if a job requires an unexpected adapter or filter change, we’re not ordering it overnight.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Dallas Homes

- Under-slab duct cracks from clay heave. Dallas’s Blackland Prairie “black gumbo” clay expands when wet and shrinks in drought, cycling seasonally. Homes built from the late 1950s through the 1980s often have ductwork embedded in or beneath the slab. As the clay moves, it cracks and displaces these ducts, opening a direct path for ground silt, moisture, and pests. Crews that skip camera inspection just stir this contamination into your air stream.
- Attic flex duct degraded by extreme heat. Dallas attics routinely reach 150-160°F in summer. Flex duct installed in the 1990s and 2000s has adhesive liners and tape joints that bake, degrade, and separate. Cleaning can pull loose liner material into the air handler if joints aren’t secured first. We inspect and stabilize before extraction.
- Pollen overload from back-to-back spring seasons. Elm, oak, and mulberry pollen in Dallas peaks March through May, coating outdoor coils and overwhelming standard filters. When the MERV rating is too low or the filter is overdue, that load recirculates through ductwork and accumulates on duct walls. We measure static pressure to confirm whether your filter and blower are matched to the actual load.
- Disconnected or crushed runs in older systems. In Casa View and Lake Highlands, we regularly find supply or return runs that have separated at couplings or been crushed by subsequent renovation work. The blower works harder, amp draw rises, and conditioned air leaks into wall cavities or the soil bed. Cleaning alone doesn’t fix this - we document the disconnection and quote sealing under Haven Standard Clause 1.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in Dallas

Because Dallas’s expansive clay soil cracks under-slab ductwork in homes built from the 1960s through 1980s, and cleaning a breached duct just distributes clay silt and moisture through your supply registers. The camera shows us whether the duct is intact enough to clean or needs sealing first. We scope every slab-era home we work on - it’s standard practice, not an upsell. Call (469) 405-6133 to schedule an inspection with written pricing.
If your home was built between roughly 1955 and 1985 and you have floor registers rather than ceiling vents, your supply and return ducts likely run through the concrete slab or in soil beneath it. In Lake Highlands specifically, this construction method was standard for the ranch and split-level tracts of that era. The telltale sign of a problem is fine silt or musty odor from registers, or uneven cooling that worsens after rain when clay expansion is highest. We confirm with camera inspection and show you the video.
Dallas HVAC systems run roughly twice the annual hours of systems in northern metros because of 60-80 days above 100°F and mild winters that still require heating. More runtime means more air volume passing through ductwork, which accumulates dust, mold spores, and pollen at a higher cumulative rate. The back-to-back spring pollen seasons - elm, oak, mulberry - add a concentrated load that recirculates if your filter and duct system aren’t matched to the demand. We measure static pressure to tell you whether your system is handling the load or just moving contamination around.
Sealing means closing the breach so treated air stops pulling from the soil bed and resumes drawing from conditioned space. In a cracked under-slab duct, we access the damaged section, remove contamination with source removal under negative pressure and HEPA filtration, then apply a structural sealant rated for underground duct applications. This is repair work, not just cleaning - and we quote it separately in writing before starting, under Haven Standard Clause 1. The goal is restoring the duct as a closed system, not just making it look clean while it still draws from the ground.
You receive three concrete deliverables: a written scope of work signed before we started, a Documented Photo Record of every duct run showing before and after conditions, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If the work isn’t right, we make it right - not as a policy subject to manager approval, but as a contractual guarantee on every job. The photo record is timestamped and shows the inside of your ducts, not just the registers. You can compare it to NADCA (National Air Duct Cleaners Association) visual cleanliness standards yourself, or have another company review it. We also welcome third-party post-cleaning inspection at no charge if you believe the standard wasn’t met.
