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.

We’ve worked inside enough Johns Creek homes to know the pattern: a 4,500 square foot brick colonial off Medlock Bridge Parkway looks immaculate from the driveway, but the flex duct in its attic turned twenty-five years old last spring. Our Air Duct Cleaning team documents what we find with before-and-after photos of every duct run, because you shouldn’t have to trust a verbal report about work you can’t see.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Marietta Is Johns Creek’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Johns Creek’s housing stock is different from what we see in newer exurbs. The master-planned communities built during the 1990s and early 2000s - St. Ives, Medlock Bridge, Parsons Run - were designed for large families who needed two or three separate HVAC zones to condition 4,000-6,000 square feet across two stories plus a finished basement. That architecture creates specific ductwork problems: long flex runs, multiple return pathways, and basement air handlers whose ducts traverse unconditioned crawl or semi-conditioned storage space. We’ve documented these conditions in Johns Creek homes since 2013.
Our reputation here is built on showing, not telling. Every customer receives a Documented Photo Record of every duct run, before and after, as a standard deliverable - not an upsell. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is printed on every invoice: if the work is not right, we make it right. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires a written price before any work starts, every time, with no exceptions. Technicians are background-checked and uniformed under Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews, and they’re identified by name before arrival.

Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in Johns Creek

Residential Duct Cleaning
Most Johns Creek homes we service have two or three separate HVAC systems, not one. A “whole-house” quote that doesn’t break out per system often misses the returns feeding the upstairs or finished-basement air handlers entirely. We price per system so you know exactly what each zone costs to clean, and we photograph every run. Typical single-system residential duct cleaning in Johns Creek runs $380-$680; multi-zone homes usually fall between $890-$1,450 depending on system count and accessibility.

Commercial Duct Cleaning
Johns Creek’s commercial corridors along State Bridge Road and Medlock Bridge Road include medical offices, professional suites, and retail spaces with packaged rooftop units and dedicated outside-air systems. We clean commercial ductwork to the same documentation standard as residential: written scope, written price, photo record. Commercial pricing in Johns Creek typically starts at $1,200 for smaller systems and scales with square footage and unit count.

Supply Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts push conditioned air to your registers. In Johns Creek’s two-story homes, we frequently find supply runs with debris accumulation at the first elbow above the air handler, particularly in systems that have run continuously through Georgia’s long cooling season. We use agitation tools and negative-pressure extraction - HEPA-filtered vacuum applied at the system to pull dislodged debris out of the ductwork rather than redistribute it.

Return Duct Cleaning
Return ducts pull air back to the air handler for reconditioning. This is where Johns Creek’s heavy spring pollen load - oak, pine, and sweet gum from the dense canopy along Big Creek - enters your system. Return pathways are often dirtier than supplies, yet they’re the first place cut by companies working from a coupon price. We clean and photograph every return run, including the main trunk and any basement returns that traverse cold, condensation-prone spaces.

Full System Cleaning
Full System Cleaning covers supply ducts, return ducts, registers, grilles, and the air handler cabinet - every component that moves air. For Johns Creek’s multi-zone homes, this means all systems, not just the easiest one to access. We include this as a standard scope item, not a premium tier.

Video Inspection
Our technicians carry camera equipment to inspect duct interiors before recommending work. In Johns Creek’s aging flex-duct homes, this step often reveals sagging or collapsed sections at attic joist transitions that restrict airflow and get misdiagnosed as equipment problems. The video becomes part of your documented job record.

AfterTrusted Brands We Service in Johns Creek
CleanRun crews in Johns Creek work with professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, and Abatement Technologies - brands you can look up independently to verify specifications. We don’t use shop vacuums with brush attachments.

Parts for common Johns Creek systems are stocked locally, so we don’t delay your job waiting for components.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Johns Creek Homes

- Multi-zone homes quoted as single-system jobs. A St. Ives or Parsons Run home with three air handlers needs three separate cleaning scopes. Companies that quote one flat “whole house” price often clean one system and call it done, leaving upstairs and basement returns untouched.
- Sagged or collapsed flex duct at attic joist transitions. The long, multi-bend flex runs typical of 1990s two-story plans sag under their own weight after twenty-plus years. Homeowners call HVAC contractors for “weak airflow upstairs” when the real problem is a duct that partially collapsed where it crosses a joist bay.
- Biological growth in basement return ducts. Finished basements are common in Johns Creek’s large-lot subdivisions. Their return ducts often run through semi-conditioned or unconditioned space, creating cold-surface condensation that accelerates mold and dust accumulation compared to main-floor systems.
- Heavy pollen infiltration into return pathways. Johns Creek’s position in the Upper Chattahoochee watershed, with dense tree canopy along creek corridors, drives higher organic particulate loads than drier parts of the metro. Returns pull this debris directly into your ductwork.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in Johns Creek

Most Johns Creek homes built in the 1990s and early 2000s have two or three separate HVAC zones. This matters because a quote that doesn’t break out per-system pricing often results in one system being cleaned while the others are ignored, particularly upstairs and basement returns that are harder to access. We price per system so you know exactly what each zone costs. Call (470) 516-9337 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
Yes. In Johns Creek’s aging flex-duct homes, we regularly find long supply runs that have sagged or partially collapsed at attic joist transitions, restricting airflow to second-floor zones. Homeowners often replace perfectly good equipment when the real issue is twenty-five-year-old duct degradation. Our video inspection can confirm this in about twenty minutes. Call (470) 516-9337 to schedule.
If your basement has its own air handler, yes. Basement returns in Johns Creek homes frequently traverse unconditioned or semi-conditioned space, creating cold-surface condensation that accelerates biological growth. These runs are often excluded from “whole-house” quotes that only address the main-floor system. We include every air handler in our written scope. Call (470) 516-9337 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
It does. Oak, pine, and sweet gum pollen from Johns Creek’s dense tree canopy enters through return air pathways, particularly in homes near Big Creek or Johns Creek corridors where canopy density is highest. Returns pull airborne particulate directly into your ductwork, where it accumulates on duct surfaces and air handler components. Regular cleaning removes this buildup before it restricts airflow or degrades indoor air quality. Call (470) 516-9337 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
You should receive a written scope of work, a written price approved before work begins, and documentation of the completed work. At CleanRun, that means our Documented Photo Record of every duct run, before and after, delivered as a standard job deliverable - not an extra. We also use source-removal methods (agitation plus negative-pressure extraction) rather than chemical-only treatments. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires the written price; Haven Standard Clause 4 requires the photo record. Call (470) 516-9337 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
