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 Marietta, GA
Air duct cleaning in Marietta, GA isn’t a generic job, and it shouldn’t be priced or treated like one. Most homes here were built in the 1980s and 1990s, which means the flexible ductwork in their attics is now 25 to 40 years old and degrading in the same hot, humid conditions that push Cobb County pollen counts to extreme levels every spring. Kestrel Air Duct Cleaning brings professional-grade Rotobrush, Nikro, and Abatement Technologies equipment to every job, with a written price in your hands before any work begins. Call (469) 972-3151 for a free estimate.
Why Marietta Homes Are Different
Marietta sits inside one of the highest-pollen metro areas in the United States. Loblolly pines, oaks, and cedars around Cobb County release a visible yellow pollen cloud every spring, and much of it finds its way into return-air intakes and then deep into ductwork. In East Cobb’s wooded subdivisions, the problem compounds because many homes still run their original flexible duct systems. Attic temperatures swing from 20°F during January ice storms to 145°F in August, and that thermal cycling turns the original duct-tape seals at boot collars to dust. When a connection separates, the system pulls unconditioned attic air, loaded with pine pollen and insulation fibers, directly into the living space, and the homeowner has no idea it’s been happening for years. Homes near the historic Square have their own story: pre-1950s structures retrofitted with central air in the 1970s and 1980s often have duct runs built around existing interior walls, which makes access tighter and cleaning patterns different from what a standard suburban split-level requires. We plan every Marietta job around the house as it actually is, not a template.
Our Main Marietta Services
Two jobs account for nearly every call we take from Marietta homeowners. Each has its own dedicated page with pricing, local conditions, and what to expect, linked below.
Air Duct Cleaning in Marietta
This is a full-system cleaning using a Rotobrush rotary brush to dislodge debris at the duct wall and a Nikro negative-pressure unit to pull it out of the house. The process is negative-air extraction, which means the system is under suction the whole time so loosened particles leave through the vacuum, not into your living room. In Marietta, we pay special attention to return ducts because heavy spring pollen loads concentrate there first. Read the full breakdown on our Air Duct Cleaning in Marietta page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Marietta
Dryer vents in Marietta clog faster than most people expect because lint mixes with the humidity that’s present in laundry rooms here from June through September. A restricted vent makes the dryer run longer per load and creates a genuine fire risk that homeowners can’t see from the outside. We clean the full run from the dryer to the exterior termination point, and we check the exterior flap for proper operation. Get the details on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Marietta page.

| Service | Typical range in Marietta |
|---|---|

What pushes a Marietta price toward the upper end is usually the house itself: a 4,200 sq ft East Cobb two-story with multiple zones has more linear feet of ductwork than a 1,900 sq ft ranch near the Square, and a system with separated boot collars in the attic takes longer to do properly. The written price we give you before the work starts is the price you pay, and it’s backed by the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing.

No. Air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning are interior maintenance jobs that don’t require HOA approval, permits, or exterior changes. The work happens inside your home and at the existing exterior vent termination, so you don’t need anything from the city or an association.
Yes. Homes near the Square that were retrofitted for central air in the 1970s and 1980s often have duct runs that were built around existing walls, not framed for them. We inspect the system layout before we start, use camera access where runs are tight, and price the work based on what’s actually in the house. Call (469) 972-3151 for a free estimate on your specific system.

What Marietta Customers Say
"Set up an appointment for the whole house plus the dryer line. They called the morning of to confirm, showed up in the window, and showed me pictures of the gunk they pulled out. Worth it."
- Terrence Boyd"My wife's allergies were awful every morning. Had the ducts done and it's made a real difference. Tech was on time and wore booties in the house without me asking."
- Rob Pendergast"Bought an older home and the previous owners had pets everywhere. After Kestrel did the ducts the stale smell was just gone. On time, quick, and they showed me the filter they pulled."
