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.

AfterFast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Brookhaven
Air duct cleaning in Brookhaven costs $425-$790 for a full residential system, with supply-only or return-only cleanings running $225-$360. That’s the honest range, written down before any work starts. CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning has worked Brookhaven homes since 2013, and we know what’s inside the ductwork here: decades of pollen from the area’s mature pine and oak canopy, construction dust from the teardown-and-rebuild waves, and insulation fibers pulled off loose flex-duct collars in 130°F attics. Scheduling is coordinated from our Atlanta office, and crews serve Brookhaven neighborhoods directly. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written price.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Is Brookhaven’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Brookhaven homeowners ask for documentation before they write a check. That’s exactly how we’ve operated since our first job in 2013. Every Air Duct Cleaning visit here includes a before-and-after photo record of every duct run, so you see what was removed, not just a technician’s word for it.
Tomas Reyes, who leads our crews, grew up in a metro-Atlanta ranch home. He knows what a 1963 return trunk sounds like when it’s been patched through three furnace replacements. Our Brookhaven customers regularly mention two things in follow-ups: the written price arrived before any panel came off, and the photo file showed something they’d been breathing for years. That’s the record we want on every job.
Response time to Brookhaven addresses is usually 1-2 business days for scheduled cleanings. We stock common replacement parts for older sheet-metal and flex-duct systems locally, which shortens turnaround when a cleaning turns into a repair.
Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in Brookhaven
Residential Duct Cleaning
Most Brookhaven homes fall into two camps: pre-1980 originals with sheet-metal or early flex-duct runs, or post-2010 infill builds. The originals carry years of pollen and dust, often with disconnected or crushed runs in the attic. The infills carry construction debris that was sealed in before the first owners ever moved in. We clean both, using negative-pressure HEPA extraction that pulls debris out rather than brushing it loose into your living spaces.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Brookhaven’s commercial corridors along Peachtree Road and Buford Highway include older retail and office spaces, some converted from 1970s strip-center construction. Those buildings often share return plenums between suites. We document every run with photos before and after, which matters when a property manager needs to show tenants the work was actually done.
Supply Duct Cleaning
In Brookhaven, supply duct cleaning matters more than in neighboring cities. The reason is specific: attic-routed flex duct in Ashford Park and Drew Valley homes takes repeated thermal cycling above 130°F, which pulls collars loose from the plenum. Once loose, attic insulation sifts directly into the supply airflow. A supply-side cleaning that doesn’t include collar inspection and sealing is incomplete here. That’s the core of what we find on service calls across this city.
Return Duct Cleaning
Brookhaven’s heavy spring pollen load, driven by dense pine, oak, and sweetgum canopies on mature residential streets, pushes biological material into return-air systems every April and May. Return runs in original homes are often undersized for the newer, larger HVAC equipment that replaced the original units. We clean return trunks and risers, and we check for leaks that let attic air, and whatever is in the attic, get pulled into the system.

We work on equipment from every major manufacturer, and our crews run professional-grade tools from Rotobrush and Nikro on Brookhaven jobs. When a cleaning reveals a damaged run or a loose plenum collar, we carry Guardsman and Honeywell replacement parts on the truck. That means fewer return visits and a faster fix for homeowners in Ashford Park, Drew Valley, and Lynwood Park.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Brookhaven Homes
- Loose flex-duct collars in hot attics. Attic temperatures in Brookhaven routinely exceed 130°F from June through August. The repeated expansion and contraction pulls flex-duct collars off the plenum in pre-2000 ranch homes. The result: attic insulation fibers circulating through bedroom supply air. We find this on a disproportionate share of calls in Ashford Park and Drew Valley.
- Construction dust from teardown rebuilds. Brookhaven’s post-2012 incorporation building wave replaced hundreds of modest ranches with 4,000+ sq ft infill houses. In many of those new builds, and in surviving originals that were renovated, ductwork was installed or extended under construction-site conditions and never cleaned before occupancy. Drywall dust and insulation debris circulate for years.
- Crushed or disconnected return runs. Original sheet-metal and early flex-duct systems from the 1950s-70s have often been patched through multiple HVAC replacements. We regularly find return runs that are crushed under attic debris or disconnected entirely, pulling unfiltered attic air into the system.
- Mold in leaky, uninsulated ductwork. Brookhaven’s summer dew points stay above 70°F for months. Any duct that is even slightly leaky or uninsulated becomes a condensation surface. We’ve pulled camera inspections on Cambrian Drive and Oglethorpe Avenue homes where return trunks showed visible microbial growth within a few feet of the filter grille.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Brookhaven, GA
A full residential duct cleaning in Brookhaven runs $425-$790, depending on the size of the home and the number of duct runs. Supply-only or return-only cleanings run $225-$360. Video inspection, which we strongly recommend for any pre-2000 Brookhaven home, adds $95-$150 but is included at no charge when we find existing duct damage during a full system cleaning.
What affects the price: the number of registers, the linear feet of ductwork, and whether attic access is walkable or requires crawling. Homes in Ashford Park and Drew Valley with original sheet-metal returns and extended flex-duct supply runs typically land in the upper half of that range, because the work takes longer and often includes collar sealing.
Every Brookhaven job gets one flat written price before any panel comes off. No per-vent pricing. No post-inspection upsell. Haven Standard Clause 1: written price before work starts, every time.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in Brookhaven
The supply side fails first in Brookhaven because of attic heat. Attic-routed flex duct in original ranch homes cycles daily between cool morning air and 130°F-plus afternoon temperatures. That cycling pulls the flex-duct collars loose from the plenum, which lets attic insulation fibers sift directly into the supply airflow. The return side, by contrast, usually stays connected but collects pollen and dust. If you own a pre-2000 ranch in Ashford Park or Drew Valley, have the supply runs inspected before you pay for a standard clean. Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll give you a written price for inspection and cleaning.
Wait until the heavy exterior work is finished: framing, drywall, and exterior siding. Teardown dust is fine enough to pull into your return grilles whenever windows are open or the HVAC is running. Once the rebuild’s exterior envelope is closed, schedule a cleaning. If you’re in Brookhaven and the rebuild has been going for months, your ducts likely already hold a layer of construction particulate. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written price on a full system clean.
Yes. Our full system cleaning uses negative-pressure HEPA extraction, which pulls loose insulation fibers out of the duct run rather than pushing them further in. We photograph every run before and after, so you can verify the fibers are gone. The critical additional step in Brookhaven is sealing the plenum collar that let the fibers in. Without that, you’ll be cleaning again in a year. We handle both in one visit, with one written price.
Yes. A video inspection, which we include at no charge when we find damage during a full cleaning, shows exactly where the original sheet-metal run ends and where an unpermitted or hack extension begins. We’ve documented this in Lynwood Park and Ashford Park homes where a homeowner installed a larger HVAC system and an unlicensed contractor spliced the original trunk with mismatched flex. The telltale signs are clear on camera: diameter changes, unsealed seams, and duct tape that has let go. Call (806) 606-6902.
Not biologically, but the conditions that cause it are more common here. Brookhaven’s mature tree canopy holds humidity at street level longer than Dunwoody’s or Tucker’s more exposed neighborhoods, and the older housing stock here has more leaky, uninsulated ductwork. That combination means more condensation inside duct runs, and more calls where our camera finds microbial growth. A standard NADCA-based cleaning with EPA-registered antimicrobial application addresses it. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written price and a photo record of what we find.
