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 New Territory
Air duct cleaning in New Territory, TX typically runs $380-$720 for a full residential system and $180-$340 for return or supply duct cleaning alone. Most New Territory homes need camera inspection first, since 25-35 year old builder-grade flex ductwork often fails the structural check that separates cleanable runs from ones requiring replacement. Call (346) 666-7165 and we’ll put a written price in front of you before any panel comes off.
We serve New Territory from our Houston office, with crews running daily routes through the subdivision’s cul-de-sac clusters off Grand Parkway and FM 1463. Our technicians know the repeating HVAC layouts here, the same flex duct failure points house after house, and what Fort Bend County insurers actually require to approve duct remediation after water intrusion. That local pattern recognition matters when we’re deciding whether your duct run can be cleaned or needs replacement, and when we’re documenting that decision so your adjuster accepts it.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Katy Is New Territory’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been in New Territory homes since 2013, and the photo records tell a consistent story. Original flex duct from the 1990s and early 2000s, cooked in attics that hit 140°F through July and August, with liner collapse and disconnected trunk takeoffs above master bedrooms showing up on camera again and again. That repetition is why our Air Duct Cleaning team can walk a New Territory attic and know where to look first.
Our crews are background-checked and uniformed under Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews. Tomas Reyes, who leads CleanRun, established the documented photo record practice in 2013, and we’ve held to it through 52,000+ homes. Every New Territory job gets the same deliverable: before-and-after photos of every duct run, moisture readings where indicated, and a written clean-vs-replace determination signed before we leave.
We’re independently owned and operated under the Haven Standard, not a franchise operation. Our license number is published on every estimate, and our equipment roster includes Rotobrush agitation systems, Nikro HEPA-negative-pressure units, and Honeywell media filters, all names you can verify independently before agreeing to a price.
Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in New Territory
Residential Duct Cleaning
Most New Territory homes are single-family tract builds from the 1990s and early 2000s on concrete slabs, with ductwork routed through unconditioned attics. We start every residential job with a video inspection, because cleaning a flex duct with a collapsed inner liner just pushes debris downstream and leaves the homeowner with a bill for work that didn’t solve anything. Our written price covers the full system, not per-vent pricing that balloons once the truck is in your driveway.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
New Territory’s commercial spaces, the retail strips along FM 1463 and the professional offices near Grand Parkway, run different duct configurations than the residential grid, but the same documentation standard applies. We photograph every run, deliver moisture readings where the building envelope meets the Brazos River corridor humidity, and provide the written scope that property managers need for their maintenance logs.
Supply Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts push conditioned air to your registers, and in New Territory’s 25-35 year old systems, we regularly find sagging flex at the long attic runs that terminate over secondary bedrooms. The insulation wrap degrades first, then the vapor barrier, then the inner liner. We document each stage with camera footage and give you the structural check results in writing before we quote any cleaning or replacement.
Return Duct Cleaning
Return ducts pull air back to the air handler, and in New Territory, this is where Hurricane Harvey’s legacy often hides. Moisture entered return plenums and attic ductwork in 2017, and many systems were never professionally remediated. We camera-inspect return runs for active mold colonization behind intact-looking vapor barriers, run negative-pressure extraction with HEPA filtration if the liner passes structural muster, and document pre-existing flood damage separately from standard maintenance so your insurer can see the difference.
Full System Cleaning
A full system cleaning in New Territory means every supply and return run, the plenum, and the air handler cabinet, photographed before and after. We use Rotobrush agitation tools and Nikro negative-pressure collection, with Guardsman antimicrobial treatment where moisture history warrants it. The deliverable is a complete photo log and written scope, backed by the 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Video Inspection
Video inspection is not an upsell here. It’s the gate that determines whether your 1990s flex duct can be cleaned or needs replacement. We run the camera through every run, check for liner collapse at elbows and takeoffs, and show you the footage before quoting any work. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires the written price before work starts, and the video evidence is what makes that price accurate.

Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in New Territory Homes
- Post-flood return-air systems never professionally remediated. Hurricane Harvey pushed moisture into return plenums and attic ductwork throughout Fort Bend County. The vapor barrier traps that condensation, and a standard cleaning without camera inspection misses active mold colonization growing behind what looks like ordinary dust.
- Collapsed inner liners in long attic runs. The original builder-grade flex in New Territory’s 1990s-era homes has cycled through 25-35 years of 140°F attic heat. The touch-and-collapse test at the air handler often reveals liner failure that makes cleaning impossible, replacement necessary.
- Disconnected trunk takeoffs above master bedrooms. Because a handful of large builders used nearly identical HVAC layouts across New Territory, our crews find the same failure point house after house: the flex run separates at the trunk takeoff above the master, strangling airflow and driving up energy bills before the homeowner knows why.
- Insurer rejection of undocumented duct claims. Homeowners file storm or flood claims without before/after camera footage, moisture readings, or a written clean-vs-replace determination. Adjusters routinely reject these as undocumented maintenance. We build the documentation package that gets remediation approved.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in New Territory
Cleaning is possible only after the duct liner passes a structural and moisture check, typically 48-72 hours after the water source is eliminated and the attic environment reads below 60% relative humidity. If the inner liner has collapsed, delaminated, or shows active mold colonization behind the vapor barrier, that run needs replacement, not cleaning. We document both conditions with camera footage and moisture readings so your insurer can see why we recommended each path. Call (346) 666-7165 and we’ll schedule the inspection that gives you a clean-vs-replace determination in writing.
New Territory was built out in a compressed window by a handful of large builders using nearly identical HVAC layouts, so the same flex duct failure points repeat across the subdivision: disconnected trunk takeoffs above master bedrooms and collapsed inner liners in long attic runs. The 140°F Fort Bend attic heat accelerates the degradation, but the location pattern is structural to the original design. We map these predictable failure points during video inspection and give you a written plan that addresses the systemic issue, not just the symptom.
Your insurer needs dated before-and-after camera footage of every affected duct run, moisture readings with location tags, and a written clean-vs-replace determination signed by the technician who performed the inspection. CleanRun includes all three as standard deliverables on every job. Without this documentation package, adjusters classify duct work as routine maintenance and deny the claim. We build the record that gets remediation approved.
Fort Bend County’s 75-90% relative humidity combines with extreme summer attic heat to create condensation pooling at low points in sagging flex ducts, which drives mold and dust-mite growth that makes duct cleaning a health-driven necessity rather than a cosmetic service. We check for active biological growth during video inspection and apply Guardsman antimicrobial treatment only where moisture history and camera evidence support it, documented in your job record. Call (346) 666-7165 for an inspection that shows you what’s actually growing in your system.
Yes. The Brazos River corridor amplifies ground moisture infiltration for homes nearest the southern edges of the community, which means higher ambient humidity in your attic space and more condensation at duct low points. We see more frequent vapor barrier failure and mold colonization in these homes, and we adjust our moisture-check protocol accordingly, with additional readings at the return plenum and the longest attic runs. The documentation package we deliver reflects this geographic risk factor for your insurer and your own maintenance records.
