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 Missouri City
Air duct cleaning in Missouri City typically runs $380-$680 for a full residential system, with video inspection and documented photo records included on every job. Most Missouri City homeowners who call us are either dealing with persistent dust after moving into a new Sienna build, or they’ve owned a Quail Valley or Hunters Glen home long enough to wonder what’s circulating through 35-year-old flex duct.
We dispatch crews to Missouri City from our Houston office, and we know the difference between a 2022 Sienna Ranch Road build with construction debris still in the plenum and a 1985 Quail Valley slab-on-grade with duct boots shaken loose by Fort Bend County clay. That local specificity matters because the right fix for one is the wrong approach for the other. Call (346) 251-8919 and we’ll put a written price in front of you before any panel comes off.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Houston Is Missouri City’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been serving Missouri City since 2013 under the Haven Standard, and our Air Duct Cleaning in Missouri City record is documented: 52,000+ homes, every one with a written price before work started and a photo record when the crew left. Tomas Reyes built this practice on the premise that homeowners should see what was in their ducts, not just take a technician’s word for it.
Missouri City customers find us because they’ve already experienced the alternative. A competitor quotes $79 over the phone, arrives with a shop-vac, and leaves no evidence the work happened. Our crews operate under Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews - background-checked, uniformed, identified by name before arrival - and every job concludes with a Documented Photo Record of every duct run, before and after, delivered as a standard deliverable. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is backed in writing, not subject to manager approval.
We answer calls with a live person, 24/7. No automated queue. No “leave a message and we’ll call back Tuesday.”
Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in Missouri City
Residential Duct Cleaning
Most Missouri City residential calls split between two housing generations: new Sienna construction with builder debris still circulating, and 1970s-1990s Quail Valley and Hunters Glen homes where flex duct has exceeded its service life. Our residential Air Duct Cleaning crews use Rotobrush agitation tools under negative-pressure extraction with HEPA filtration - the negative pressure keeps dislodged debris from escaping into your living space during cleaning. Every register, return, and trunk line is photographed before and after.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Missouri City’s commercial stock includes medical offices near Highway 6, retail along FM 1092, and light industrial near the Stafford border. These systems face higher particulate loads than residential, and Texas Department of State Health Services regulations for certain occupancies require documented cleanliness verification. We deliver that documentation: written scope, photo record, and post-cleaning particulate assessment on request.
Supply Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts carry conditioned air to your registers, and in Missouri City they’re where we most often find the problems that matter. In Sienna homes, construction debris accumulates at the first elbow downstream of the air handler - drywall dust packs into blower wheels and coats duct liners. In older Quail Valley homes, disconnected boots in unconditioned attics leak 130°F air into the chase instead of pushing it through the register. We clean the full supply run and photograph every joint.
Return Duct Cleaning
Return ducts pull air back to the air handler, and they’re the entry point for what circulates through your home. In Missouri City’s humid subtropical climate, return plenums in unconditioned attics collect condensation that feeds mold colonies on fiberglass liners. Our return cleaning includes inspection of the filter rack and plenum connection - common failure points where unfiltered attic air bypasses the system entirely.
Full System Cleaning
A full system cleaning addresses supply ducts, return ducts, the plenum (the central distribution box), and accessible trunk lines as one integrated scope. This is what most Missouri City homes actually need, especially Sienna builds where construction debris contaminated both sides of the system at handover, or Quail Valley homes where decades of clay-soil movement have compromised multiple joints. One flat price per system, agreed in writing before we start.
Video Inspection
Video inspection adds a borescope camera to every duct run, not just the ones we can reach by hand. In Missouri City, this matters for two reasons: floodplain humidity mold on duct insulation is invisible from the register, and construction debris in new Sienna homes often sits past the first elbow where a standard visual check won’t catch it. The camera shows what exists, not what we suspect. Footage is included in your job record.

BeforeAfterTrusted Brands We Service in Missouri City
Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush agitation systems, Nikro negative-pressure extractors, Honeywell media air cleaners, and Aprilaire whole-home purifiers - brands you can look up independently before agreeing to any scope. We don’t ask for trust based on logos. We name the equipment because Haven Standard Clause 1 requires written transparency, and because Missouri City homeowners researching their options deserve to verify what enters their home. Parts for these systems are stocked locally, so if your cleaning reveals a component that needs replacement, turnaround doesn’t depend on a warehouse in another state.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Missouri City Homes
- Builder handover debris in Sienna new construction. Missouri City only requires a final building inspection, not duct cleanliness verification. Drywall dust, sawdust, and joint compound grit remain in supply and return ducts after the builder’s walkthrough, circulating through the home for months or years until source removal is performed.
- Floodplain humidity mold without official flooding. In Sienna and Oyster Creek corridors, chronic soil moisture wicks into unconditioned chases and crawl spaces. Duct insulation grows black mold even in homes that never took on Harvey water. Homeowners misdiagnose this as “musty AC smell” and replace filters repeatedly while the source persists inside the duct.
- Disconnected duct boots from expansive clay soil movement. Fort Bend County’s highly expansive clay shifts slabs and framing over seasonal wet-dry cycles. In Quail Valley and Hunters Glen homes, this movement crimps or separates flex-duct boots and joints, dumping conditioned air into attics and pulling 130°F attic air into the living space.
- Accelerated flex-duct liner breakdown from attic heat. Missouri City attic temperatures routinely exceed 130-140°F in summer while outdoor dew points stay above 70°F for months. This combination degrades flex-duct inner liners and foil-faced insulation faster than manufacturer specifications assume, creating particulate shedding and condensation points that standard cleaning alone won’t fix.

Our crews work throughout Fort Bend and southwest Harris counties, including Missouri City neighbors: Stafford to the north, Sugar Land to the northwest, Fresno to the east, and Bellaire to the northeast. Each city gets the same written-price, photo-documented standard, but the local failure modes differ - Sugar Land’s higher-elevation core doesn’t face the same floodplain humidity issues as Sienna, and Stafford’s commercial stock has different occupancy requirements than Missouri City’s residential concentration.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in Missouri City
Missouri City building code requires a final inspection, not duct cleanliness verification, so builders routinely leave drywall dust, sawdust, and joint compound grit in supply and return ducts at handover. Our tech pulled a blower motor in a 2021 Sienna home near Sienna Ranch Road and found the wheel packed with drywall dust and joint compound grit that had been circulating since the builder’s final walkthrough. We used Rotobrush agitation tools under negative pressure with HEPA filtration, then camera-inspected the supply and return ducts to confirm no construction debris remained in the flex runs. The homeowner said the “new house smell” disappeared and their MERV 13 filter stopped loading up every three weeks. Call (346) 251-8919 for a written estimate.
Yes. Technicians working Sienna-area homes near the Brazos River floodplain regularly find that duct insulation on low-lying crawl-space chases or in pier-and-beam additions shows black mold growth even in homes that never officially flooded, because the regional water table and soil moisture wick humidity into unconditioned spaces year-round. This is a micro-climate failure mode that homeowners attribute to “musty AC smell” but is actually chronic duct contamination that standard visual inspections miss. Video inspection is the only way to verify insulation condition without disassembling the system. Call (346) 251-8919 to schedule.
Fort Bend County’s highly expansive clay soils swell when wet and shrink during dry periods, shifting slabs and framing enough to disconnect or crimp flex-duct boots and joints over time. In Quail Valley homes built in the 1970s through 1990s, this movement has had 35-45 years to work on connections that were never designed for that much flex. The result: attic air bypasses the air handler, supply registers blow weak or hot, and return leaks pull unfiltered attic dust into the system. Cleaning alone won’t reattach a separated boot, but our video inspection identifies these failures so you know what needs Duct Repair & Sealing in Missouri City versus what needs source removal. Call (346) 251-8919 for a written scope.
Video inspection adds borescope camera footage of every duct run, capturing what visual checks from the register cannot: construction debris past the first elbow in Sienna new builds, black mold on duct insulation in floodplain humidity zones, and disconnected boots in Quail Valley attics. The footage becomes part of your Documented Photo Record, delivered with your job paperwork. In Missouri City’s climate, we consider video inspection standard for any home with persistent odor, recent construction, or known floodplain exposure. Call (346) 251-8919 for pricing with video included.
New Sienna homes should receive source removal within the first 12-18 months to clear builder debris before it compacts into duct liner. After that, Missouri City’s Gulf Coast humidity and 130°F+ attic temperatures mean every 3-5 years for homes with standard particulate loads, or every 2-3 years if you have pets, recent renovations, or live in the floodplain humidity zone where mold risk is elevated. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers your work for a full year, and we note recommended re-inspection intervals in your written job record. Call (346) 251-8919 to discuss your home’s specific conditions.
