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.

Bulverde’s rapid growth through the 2010s and 2020s left a signature problem inside its ductwork. Master-planned communities like Johnson Ranch and Copper Canyon were built fast, and the fine limestone caliche dust from those construction sites, combined with cedar pollen pulled deep into returns each winter, creates a buildup we document on camera in home after home. Our crews find this pale, grit-heavy residue coating flex-duct runs in attics that hit 140-160°F through summer months, accelerating material breakdown and pushing particulates into living spaces.
Why Bulverde Homes Are Different
Bulverde sits in the Ashe Juniper belt, where December through February brings cedar pollen counts that rank among the highest in North America. That pollen is exceptionally fine, penetrating standard filtration and accumulating in ductwork year after year. The Hill Country terrain adds caliche dust, and the construction boom of the last fifteen years means many homes were finished with drywall dust and debris still inside the system.
The housing stock is overwhelmingly large, two-story single-family homes built from roughly 2008 onward, with multiple HVAC zones and extensive flex-duct runs through attics. Those attics experience extreme heat stress that degrades duct liner and sheds particles into the airstream. In newer subdivisions off Hwy 46 and FM 1863, we regularly open ducts to find the pale limestone residue that identifies Bulverde construction-era contamination. Homeowners here experience what locals call “Cedar Fever” without realizing their ductwork is recirculating the trigger.
Our Main Bulverde Services
Homeowners in Bulverde most often call us for these three services, each with its own dedicated page:
Air Duct Cleaning in Bulverde
Full-system negative-pressure extraction of every duct run, register, and return in Bulverde homes, with before-and-after photography of each line. We pay particular attention to construction debris in newer subdivisions and cedar pollen loads that standard filters miss. Air Duct Cleaning in Bulverde covers complete scope and pricing.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Bulverde
Lint removal from dryer exhaust runs through attics and exterior walls, with airflow testing before and after. Bulverde’s longer vent runs in larger two-story homes increase fire risk and drying time. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Bulverde details our process.
Duct Repair & Sealing in Bulverde
Sealing disconnected flex-duct joints and replacing heat-degraded liner material in attics that reach 140-160°F. We document every leak with photos and seal with mastic or metal-backed tape, not duct tape. Duct Repair & Sealing in Bulverde explains our approach.

BeforeAfterHVAC Cleaning in Bulverde
HVAC cleaning in Bulverde addresses the accelerated fouling that comes with Hill Country conditions. Cedar pollen, caliche construction dust, and attic heat stress combine to coat evaporator coils and blower assemblies with a stubborn, layered residue that reduces airflow and strains compressors. HVAC Cleaning covers our full equipment and methodology.
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
Signs you need it
Ice formation on refrigerant lines, weak airflow from registers, or cooling that cannot keep up with Bulverde’s 100°F summer afternoons.
What it costs in Bulverde
Evaporator coil cleaning typically runs $180-$320 in Bulverde, depending on accessibility and contamination level.
How we do it
We remove the coil assembly where accessible, apply foaming cleaner, rinse with low-pressure water, and photograph the fin surface before reassembly.
Blower Cleaning
Signs you need it
Vibration or noise from the air handler, uneven heating or cooling across zones, or dust puffing from registers at startup.
What it costs in Bulverde
Blower assembly cleaning ranges $150-$280 in Bulverde homes with standard single-speed motors.
How we do it
We extract the blower wheel and motor, clean blades and housing with compressed air and solvent, balance the assembly, and document runout with photos.
What HVAC Cleaning Costs in Bulverde
| Item | Typical range in Bulverde |
|---|---|
| Evaporator coil cleaning | $180-$320 |
| Blower assembly cleaning | $150-$280 |
| Full HVAC system cleaning (coil, blower, housing) | $400-$650 |
How often should HVAC cleaning happen in Bulverde?
Every three to four years for most Bulverde homes, sooner if cedar pollen sensitivity is severe or construction-era dust is suspected. Call (726) 600-7155 and we’ll inspect with a camera to determine actual condition.
Can HVAC cleaning reduce my cooling costs?
Clean coils and blowers move air more efficiently, which can lower runtime and reduce compressor strain during Bulverde’s extended summer heat. We measure before-and-after static pressure to document improvement.
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Bulverde
Air quality and sanitizing in Bulverde targets the biological load that cedar pollen and attic heat create inside ductwork. The same conditions that foul HVAC components, pollen accumulation plus 140-160°F attic temperatures, promote microbial growth on duct liner and in condensate pans. Air Quality & Sanitizing details our full treatment options.
Mold Treatment
Signs you need it
Musty odor at startup, visible growth around registers, or persistent respiratory irritation during Bulverde’s humid spring months.
What it costs in Bulverde
Spot mold treatment runs $250-$450; whole-system application ranges $400-$700 depending on duct count and contamination extent.
How we do it
We apply EPA-registered fungistatic treatment through the full duct network after mechanical cleaning, with before-and-after photo documentation of affected areas.
UV Light Installation
Signs you need it
Recurring microbial growth after treatment, or chronic allergy symptoms that persist despite filtration upgrades in pollen-heavy Bulverde homes.
What it costs in Bulverde
UV-C lamp installation at the coil or air handler runs $350-$600 including hardware and mounting.
How we do it
We mount a UV-C lamp upstream of the coil with a sight glass for verification, wire to the blower circuit, and include replacement bulb scheduling.
What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Bulverde
| Item | Typical range in Bulverde |
|---|---|
| Mold treatment (spot) | $250-$450 |
| Mold treatment (whole system) | $400-$700 |
| UV-C lamp installation | $350-$600 |
Is UV light worth it in Bulverde’s climate?
UV-C at the coil prevents the microbial growth that Bulverde’s heat and humidity encourage, reducing the need for repeat chemical treatments. We install lamps with sight glasses so homeowners can verify operation.
How do I know mold treatment actually worked?
Our Documented Photo Record shows treated surfaces before and after, and we deliver written scope completion with the job record. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers any recurrence at no charge.
