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 Cibolo
Air duct cleaning in Cibolo typically runs $380-$680 for a full residential system, and every job starts with a written price before we touch a single panel. We dispatch crews from our San Antonio office to Cibolo daily, and we know the difference between a 2018 tract home off John E Peterson Boulevard and a rural property on caliche ground near Roy Richard Drive. Call (830) 402-5110 for a free estimate with a written number you can compare.
Our Air Duct Cleaning team has worked in Cibolo since the subdivision boom accelerated in the early 2010s. We’ve cleaned ducts in homes that still had drywall dust from the original construction, and we’ve traced cedar pollen coating through entire flex-duct systems after one heavy season. The work we do here is shaped by what Cibolo actually is: a cedar-belt city with young housing stock, ongoing construction dust, and a mix of suburban streets and rural properties that load HVAC systems differently than San Antonio neighborhoods just 20 miles west.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Schertz Is Cibolo’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We are independently owned and operated under the Haven Standard, established in 2013, and we’ve served more than 52,000 homes with a written price before work started and a documented photo record when the crew left. In Cibolo specifically, our reputation rests on what we can show homeowners: the before-and-after images of their own duct runs, the written scope they signed before we began, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise backed in writing on every job.
Cibolo customers find us because they’ve already met the $79 coupon companies. They know what vacuum noise sounds like without a HEPA-filtered negative-pressure rig or rotary agitation tools. We don’t compete on entry price; we compete on what you receive. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires a written price before any work starts - no exceptions. Haven Standard Clause 3, Verified Crews, means our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and identified by name before arrival. You know who is in your home, and you know what the work costs before they remove the first register.
Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our San Antonio office, but crews serve Cibolo locally and carry the full equipment roster: Rotobrush agitation systems, Nikro HEPA-filtered vacuums, and video inspection gear from Abatement Technologies. Most Cibolo appointments are scheduled within a week, and we do not artificially limit availability to create false urgency.
Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in Cibolo
Residential Duct Cleaning
Most Cibolo homes are post-2000 builder-grade single-family tract houses with standard flex-duct systems, often installed quickly during high-volume construction phases. We clean the full system: supply ducts (the runs that push conditioned air into rooms), return ducts (the runs that pull air back to the air handler), the plenum (the distribution box attached to your furnace or air handler), and all registers and grilles. Our crews use Rotobrush contact cleaning inside each duct run, coupled with negative-pressure extraction from Nikro HEPA-filtered equipment, so debris is agitated loose and removed rather than pushed deeper into the system.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Cibolo’s commercial growth along 90th Infantry Division Highway and near major retail corridors has outpaced the HVAC maintenance infrastructure. We clean ductwork in small offices, medical suites, daycare facilities, and retail spaces with the same documented protocol: written price first, photo record of every run, and equipment sized to the building’s air volume. Commercial systems in Cibolo often share a problem with residential - they were installed during rapid development and may never have been cleaned.
Supply Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts deliver heated or cooled air to your rooms. In Cibolo, these runs often show a specific pattern: clean-looking at the register, but loaded with construction debris at the first elbow or damper. The flex duct common in local builds can sag or collapse at bends, creating traps where drywall dust and caliche particulate settle. We photograph each supply run before and after, and we note any structural issues - collapsed sections, unsealed joints, or pinholes - in the written job record.
Return Duct Cleaning
Return ducts pull air from your living spaces back to the air handler, and in Cibolo they work harder than almost anywhere in the region. The Ashe juniper belt loads these ducts with pollen from late November through February. Rural properties on or near unpaved roads add year-round caliche dust. Homes with wood stoves or pets compound the loading further. Return duct cleaning is where real source removal happens, and it’s the service most often skipped by low-price competitors who clean only the supply registers you can see. We clean the full return trunk, the return plenum, and the air handler cabinet as part of a complete job.
Full System Cleaning
This is our most complete residential service and the one we recommend for Cibolo homes that have never been cleaned, or that show heavy loading on both supply and return sides. Full System Cleaning includes every duct run, both plenums, the air handler cabinet, the blower motor assembly, and all registers and grilles. We also include a video inspection of accessible ductwork using Abatement Technologies camera equipment, so you see what we see before we quote the work and after we finish.
Video Inspection
Our video inspection service uses a push camera with LED lighting to document the interior condition of your ductwork. In Cibolo’s flex-duct systems, we’re looking for specific failure modes: collapsed runs from improper support, pinholes at joint connections that pull in attic insulation fibers, and construction debris traps at elbows and transitions. The video becomes part of your documented photo record, and we review it with you before quoting any repair or cleaning work.

BeforeAfterTrusted Brands We Service in Cibolo
CleanRun crews arrive with professional-grade equipment from trade-recognized brands: Rotobrush for contact agitation inside duct runs, Nikro for HEPA-filtered negative-pressure vacuum extraction, and Honeywell and Aprilaire components for air handler and filtration work. We do not use shop vacuums or consumer-grade tools. These are manufacturer names you can look up independently, and they represent the difference between moving debris around your system and actually removing it. For Cibolo customers, this means the job is done with equipment rated for commercial duct cleaning standards, documented in writing, and backed by the 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Cibolo Homes
- Construction debris trapped since build. Cibolo grew from roughly 3,000 residents in 2000 to over 30,000 by the early 2020s, and the dominant housing stock is 2000s-2020s builder-grade tract homes. Drywall dust, caliche limestone particulate, and spray-foam particles often remain in ductwork from the day the home was built, especially in homes where the HVAC was powered on before final construction cleanup was complete.
- Cedar pollen loading in return ducts. Cibolo sits squarely in the Ashe juniper belt, and from late November through February the area experiences one of the heaviest cedar pollen seasons in North America. This pollen penetrates HVAC return vents and coats duct interiors, compounding respiratory complaints for the season. The loading happens fast enough that a system cleaned in October can show visible pollen accumulation by January.
- Unsealed flex-duct joints pulling attic debris. The flexible ducting common in Cibolo’s newer builds can develop pinholes at joints or collapse at unsupported spans, pulling in attic insulation fibers and caliche dust long before any register looks dirty. We find this in homes from 2005 and in homes from 2022 - it’s a function of installation quality, not just age.
- Rural dust from unpaved roads and open land. Properties on or near caliche roads and open ground around Cibolo experience year-round mineral dust loading that suburban homes don’t face. This dust is fine enough to pass standard return filters and accumulates in the air handler and blower motor, reducing efficiency and increasing particulate circulation.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Cibolo, TX
Most full residential duct cleaning jobs in Cibolo run between $380 and $680, depending on system size, accessibility, and contamination level. A typical single-story home with 8-12 registers and standard flex-duct falls in the $420-$520 range. Two-story homes, systems with more than 15 registers, or jobs requiring significant repair work (sealing collapsed runs, replacing damaged flex sections) may reach $600-$850. Commercial quotes are written on-site after inspection.
We do not quote per-vent pricing. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires one flat price per system, agreed in writing before work starts. What affects your specific number: the number of supply and return runs, whether the air handler is in the attic or a closet, the presence of construction debris or heavy pollen loading that requires extended agitation time, and any repairs needed to damaged ductwork we discover during video inspection. We also offer a Free Second Opinion on any written estimate from another company - bring their quote, and we’ll put our number next to it in writing.
Every job includes the documented photo record of every duct run, delivered as part of the standard job record. Call (830) 402-5110 for a free estimate - we’ll inspect your system, show you the video, and deliver a written price you can take or leave with no pressure.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in Cibolo
Every 2-3 years for rural Cibolo properties on caliche roads or open land, compared to every 3-5 years for suburban homes on paved streets. The year-round mineral dust from unpaved access roads loads return filters and duct interiors faster than pollen alone, and homes with wood stoves or multiple pets may need cleaning closer to the 2-year mark. Call (830) 402-5110 and we’ll inspect your system to give you a specific interval based on what the camera shows.
Because Cibolo’s housing stock was built during one of the fastest growth periods in the country, and speed often came before cleanup. Drywall dust, caliche particulate, and spray-foam fragments were frequently left in duct cavities when the HVAC was first powered on, and the system’s own airflow has been recirculating that debris ever since. We see this in 2012 builds and 2019 builds equally - the year matters less than whether a dedicated duct cleaning happened before occupancy. Our video inspection will show you exactly what’s in your system.
We are looking for collapsed runs, unsealed joints, pinholes pulling attic insulation fibers, and debris traps at elbows and transitions - all common in the flex-duct systems installed during Cibolo’s rapid build phase. The camera also documents the before condition of each run so you can verify the after result. This inspection is included in Full System Cleaning and available as a standalone service if you want to assess your ducts before committing to cleaning.
It absolutely gets into the ducts. Cibolo’s location in the Ashe juniper belt means pollen counts from late November through February are among the highest in North America, and the particles are small enough to pass standard return filters. We’ve opened return plenums in January that were coated with a visible yellow-green film. The pollen loads the system, recirculates through living spaces, and compounds with caliche dust to form the dense mat we regularly find in Cibolo returns. Real removal requires agitation and extraction, not filter changes alone.
Yes, we clean ductwork in detached shops, barns with HVAC, and outbuilding systems throughout the Cibolo area. These systems often use the same flex-duct or metal trunk design as residential, but with heavier loading from workshop dust, welding particulate, or agricultural debris. We quote outbuilding work as a separate system with its own written price, and we document the condition with the same photo record protocol. Call (830) 402-5110 to schedule an inspection - we’ll video the runs and deliver a scope in writing.
