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.

AfterAir Duct Cleaning Company in Hicksville, NY
Air duct cleaning in Hicksville, NY typically costs $450 – $800 for a standard single-system home, and most jobs wrap up in 3 – 5 hours. Hicksville’s housing stock leans heavily toward 1950s – 1970s split-levels, capes, and colonials, many still running their original ductwork. That means dust, construction debris, and decades of pet dander have had a very long time to settle in. We’re Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Relay Home Co. family, and we work the Hicksville area with a written price before any work starts. Call (737) 727-2314 for a free estimate.
Why Hicksville Homes Are Different
Hicksville sits in the middle of Nassau County, and its homes reflect the post-war building boom that transformed Long Island. Most of the ductwork we see here was installed between 1940 and 1980, which means older galvanized steel ducts with seams that have loosened over time. Those seams pull in air from crawlspaces and attics, and with it, whatever is floating around up there. Hicksville’s humid summers also make condensation a regular issue, especially in basements where duct runs often sit uninsulated. Add in the pollen season from late April through June, and you get the classic Hicksville combination: visible dust on registers, musty smells when the AC first kicks on, and allergy symptoms that seem worse indoors than outside. The soil in this part of Nassau County is sandy and drains quickly, but the air is another story. Homes off Old Country Road and around Cantiague Park tend to show the heaviest buildup, simply because they sit closer to mature tree cover. Every one of these jobs responds well to professional-grade equipment, and that’s exactly what we bring.
Our Main Hicksville Services
Hicksville homeowners call us most often for two things: dryer vent blockages and full air duct cleanings. Both are the kind of job where the problem hides until it doesn’t, and both are jobs we handle end to end with the 365-Day Done Right Promise behind them.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Hicksville
Dryer vents in Hicksville run longer than they should because so many laundry rooms sit in the center of the house. That means a vent line can travel 15 to 30 feet before it reaches the exterior, often with a couple of bends along the way. Lint packs into those turns, airflow drops, and dry times stretch out. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Hicksville service uses rotary brush systems to break the lint free, then a HEPA vacuum pulls it out the same day. The job takes about an hour, and you get before-and-after photos through The Relay Standard when we finish.
Air Duct Cleaning in Hicksville
A full air duct cleaning in Hicksville means reaching every trunk line, branch, and return drop connected to your furnace or air handler. We use a Rotobrush rotary brush to agitate debris off the duct walls, paired with a Nikro HEPA vacuum creating negative-pressure extraction. That means the loosened material goes straight into the vacuum, not back into your living room. Most Hicksville homes with one HVAC system finish in under a day. The full breakdown is on our Air Duct Cleaning in Hicksville page, including what pushes a quote higher or lower.
HVAC Cleaning in Hicksville
HVAC cleaning in Hicksville goes beyond the ducts to the equipment itself. Blower wheels, coils, drain pans, and the inside of the air handler collect a crust of dust and moisture that cuts efficiency and shortens equipment life. Older Hicksville systems from the 70s and 80s tend to need this more than newer units, simply because the components have more hours on them. Our HVAC Cleaning in Hicksville page covers the specifics, including what we see on York, Carrier, and Trane systems in this area. Every job includes a written price before we open a single panel.
