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 Schaumburg Team Behind CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Schaumburg
Every crew that works in Schaumburg lives inside the same standard. That means a written price before the van doors open, a photo record of every duct run before and after, and a technician who introduces himself by name before he steps onto your driveway. The four people below are the ones who show up. No rotating cast, no mystery subcontractor. If you’ve seen a CleanRun truck in Hoffman Estates, Palatine, or along Golf Road, one of these four was probably driving it.
Our People
Tomas Reyes, Owner
I started CleanRun in 2013 after watching too many homeowners get a low phone quote that doubled once the crew saw the basement. I still carry a Rotobrush RBD5500 on jobs when we’re short-handed, and I sign every written price sheet myself before work starts. Haven Standard Clause 1 is my doing: no exceptions, no “call for pricing,” no surprises. I live in Cook County, my kids went to school here, and I’ve personally crawled through the plenum (the main distribution box above your furnace) in probably two hundred Schaumburg homes. The thing that still gets me is how many homeowners have never seen a single photo from inside their own ducts. We fix that on every visit.
Marcus T., Lead Technician
Marcus has been running full-system cleanings for seven years, and he can read a duct layout like a blueprint. He’s certified on the Nikro HP20G gas-powered negative-pressure extraction system (a high-suction unit that pulls debris out through a sealed collection hose), and he’s the one we send when a customer has already fired another company mid-job. His specialty is older Schaumburg split-levels built in the 1970s, where the flex duct (flexible insulated tubing) has settled into odd angles that trap debris. Marcus keeps a coffee can of screws he’s pulled from ductwork over the years. His record is a 3-inch drywall screw sitting at a first elbow, rattling for eleven years.
Elena V., Senior Installer / Duct Repair Specialist
Elena handles the jobs that go beyond cleaning: sealed plenum connections, register boot replacements, and full duct run rebuilds after a renovation or pest damage. She’s trained on Abatement Technologies’ PRED1200 portable HEPA filtration unit, which we deploy during any repair that disturbs existing ductwork. Before she joined us, she spent four years in commercial HVAC retrofit, so she’s comfortable in crawl spaces most people won’t enter. Elena is the reason we carry Guardsman mastic tape on every truck; she’s particular about seal integrity in Schaumburg’s freeze-thaw cycles, where thermal expansion can crack a sloppy job in two seasons. She has a dog named after a type of fitting. His name is Wye.
Darnell K., Service Coordinator
Darnell answers the phone when you call (224) 385-0904, and he’s the one who builds your written estimate before anyone schedules a truck. He knows which Schaumburg neighborhoods have the 1980s metal ductwork that cleans easily and which have the 2000s flex runs that need gentler brush speeds. He’s also the person who delivers your Documented Photo Record within 24 hours of job completion, with every before-and-after labeled by room and register. Darnell grew up in Hoffman Estates, still plays in a men’s basketball league at the Schaumburg Park District, and will ask you about your furnace filter size before he asks for your address. It saves time on the quote.
Jin S., Apprentice Technician
Jin is in his second year with us and already runs dryer vent cleanings independently. He’s certified on the Honeywell UV air treatment systems we install for customers who want sanitizing beyond mechanical cleaning, and he’s learning duct run mapping under Elena’s supervision. Jin is the one who checks every job bag for the Aprilaire media filter samples we leave with customers whose systems need upgrading. He grew up in a house with a finished basement in Palatine, which is how he learned that a noisy register usually means a disconnected boot, not a “normal” system. He takes the photos on jobs where Marcus is working solo. His camera work is better than his basketball, which Darnell has confirmed.
One Standard, Every Job
CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Schaumburg is independently owned and operated under the Haven Standard, established in 2013. That means Tomas Reyes signs off on every crew member’s background check, every uniform, and every piece of equipment that goes on a truck. The Rotobrush, Nikro, Abatement Technologies, Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman tools we name on this page are the same ones Jin loads at 7 a.m. and Marcus runs until 6 p.m. The 365-Day Done Right Promise applies whether Elena is rebuilding a plenum in a Schaumburg colonial or Darnell is rebooking a customer whose furnace filter was three months overdue. Every job gets a written price before work starts. Every job gets a Documented Photo Record when the crew leaves. No crew member works outside that standard, and no customer gets treated like an exception.
