About us
Cleaning you can actually see
Duct cleaning has a visibility problem. The ducts sit in your ceiling, so it is hard to know how dirty they were or whether the clean made a real difference. We think you should be able to see both. That is why we photograph the inside of your ducts and outlets before we start and again when we finish, and talk you through what changed in plain language.
Newstead has changed a lot. Former industrial blocks have become apartment towers, warehouse conversions and modern townhouses, most with ducted air conditioning running through tight bulkheads and ceiling cavities. Those systems run hard through Brisbane's humid summers and collect dust and mould just like older homes. We tailor each clean to the building, coordinate with body corporate where needed and keep you informed from quote to finish.
What we clean
Our services
Ducted air con duct cleaning
We clean each supply duct from the indoor unit to the outlet using rotary brushes and a filtered negative-air machine. The process removes settled dust and debris rather than pushing it further along, and we photograph sections before and after for your records.
Bulkhead and apartment systems
Apartment air con often lives in a bulkhead or ceiling cavity with limited access. We work through existing access panels and outlets, using compact tools suited to the short, tight duct runs common in Newstead and Teneriffe apartments.
Photo inspection
Before quoting or cleaning, we can inspect the ducts and outlets and share photos of what we find. If your system is in reasonable shape, we tell you that and suggest when to check again, rather than cleaning for the sake of it.
Mould cleaning and treatment
Humid air and cold duct surfaces make mould a regular finding in Brisbane. We remove growth mechanically from outlets and accessible duct surfaces, then apply a sanitising treatment and explain any moisture issues we noticed during the clean.
Return air and filter care
The return air grille and filter decide how much dust reaches your ducts in the first place. We clean the grille and plenum, clean or replace the filter, and show you how to access and check it between professional visits.
Outlet and diffuser cleaning
Diffusers and linear slot vents are removed or cleaned in place, depending on the style. Slot diffusers in modern apartments are notorious for gathering dark dust lines, and we clean them so they match your freshly painted ceilings.

FAQ
Your questions, answered clearly
Yes. We take photos inside the ducts and at the outlets before and after cleaning, and share them with you once the job is done. They are useful for your own peace of mind, for tenants and landlords, and as a reference point next time you are deciding whether another clean is needed.
It depends on your building. Many apartment complexes in Newstead and Teneriffe ask for contractor details, lift bookings or loading dock times in advance. Check with your building manager, and let us know their requirements when you request a quote. We are happy to provide the information they need.
Newer systems can still collect dust, building debris from construction or fit-out, and mould if they run constantly in humid weather. That said, not every new apartment needs a clean. A photo inspection is a simple way to find out, and we will tell you honestly if it can wait.
Dark lines along linear slot diffusers are usually dust and fine particles carried by the airflow, sometimes combined with mould in humid conditions. They often mean the ducts and filter also need attention. We clean the diffusers and check the system behind them so the marks do not quickly return.
Very little in most homes. We lay protection under outlets, work through access panels and manholes, and use extraction that keeps dust contained. There is some equipment noise while the extraction machine runs. Most people carry on with their day in another room while we work.
