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.

AfterMeet the Alexandria Team Behind CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Alexandria
We’re the crew that shows up in Alexandria with Rotobrush and Nikro units in the van, name tags on our shirts, and a written price already in your hand before we touch a single register. What ties us together isn’t a motivational poster. It’s the H.A.V.E.N. Standard, and the fact that every one of us has seen what a neglected plenum looks like when the camera goes in. We’ve been at this since 2013, serving more than 52,000 homes, and we still treat every duct run in Alexandria like it’s the first one that ever surprised us.
Our People
Tomas Reyes - Owner & Lead Technician
I started CleanRun in 2013 after ten years watching homeowners get handed invoices that had nothing to do with the number they were quoted on the phone. I hold the Virginia Class C contractor license and I’m certified in negative-pressure extraction systems through Abatement Technologies. What I actually do most days: run the camera through the first elbow of a duct run and let the customer watch the monitor. If there’s a three-inch debris build-up, I’ll let the picture sit there for a minute before I say anything. The silence usually does more than my pitch ever could. I live in Fairfax County with my wife and two kids, and I still personally handle any callback under the 365-Day Done Right Promise. Haven Standard Clause 1 - written price before work starts - exists because I got tired of explaining why other companies couldn’t stick to one.
Marcus T. - Senior Installer & Duct Repair Specialist
Marcus has been with us since 2017, which in this trade means he’s seen just about every configuration of galvanized ductwork Old Town Alexandria can throw at a person. He’s NCI-certified for duct diagnostics and specializes in sealing compromised duct runs with mastic and mechanical fasteners, not the tape that peels off in three summers. His human detail: he keeps a collection of failed “fixes” other companies left behind - a whole shelf of brittle foil tape and collapsed flex duct in his garage that he uses to train new apprentices on what not to do. Marcus grew up in Woodbridge and still won’t let anyone else drive the van through the narrow alleys off King Street.
Dana L. - Service Coordinator
Dana answers the phones and schedules every job, which means she’s the one making sure you get a written scope and price before we dispatch, not after. She’s been with CleanRun since 2019 and knows the equipment roster cold - she can tell you whether your job needs the Rotobrush Roto-Vision for light residential buildup or the Nikro HP20 for heavier negative-pressure work, and she’ll explain the difference without making you feel like you should’ve already known. Before she joined us, she spent six years in medical office administration, which explains why her call notes are more detailed than some technicians’ job reports. She lives in Del Ray and walks her dog past houses where she’s scheduled our crew, checking whether the van is parked where she said it would be.
Javier R. - Apprentice Technician
Javier joined us in 2022 after completing the HVAC program at Northern Virginia Community College. He’s working toward his full duct cleaning certification through the National Air Duct Cleaners Association and currently handles register removal, pre-inspection photography, and equipment sanitization under direct supervision. What he’s best at so far: spotting the things that don’t belong in a duct run. Last March in the Landmark area, he found a child’s small toy car wedged against a damper that was causing a complete airflow block to a back bedroom - the homeowner had been running a space heater for two winters because she thought the room was just cold. Javier’s from Springfield, plays midfield in a rec soccer league, and asks more questions than some people are comfortable with, which is exactly why we hired him.
One Standard, Every Job
The H.A.V.E.N. Standard isn’t a slogan we put on the vans. It’s six clauses that govern how we operate in Alexandria and across every home we enter in Virginia. Haven Standard Clause 1: written price before any work starts, always, with no exceptions. Haven Standard Clause 3: verified crews - background-checked, uniformed, identified by name before arrival. Haven Standard Clause 5: documented photo record on every visit, inside every duct run, delivered to you as part of the standard job record. The 365-Day Done Right Promise backs every job in writing, not as a policy subject to manager approval but as a guarantee you can hold in your hand. We’ve held these practices since 2013, across more than 52,000 homes, because the alternative - the bait-and-switch, the hidden per-vent upcharge, the vacuum noise with no proof of work - is what we set out to replace. Whether you’re in Old Town, Del Ray, Landmark, or out toward the Fairfax County line, the crew that arrives will be the same standard: trade-recognized equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, Abatement Technologies, Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman; a written scope before a single panel comes off; and photos that show you what we found, not adjectives about how we felt about it.
