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 Tamiami, FL
Air duct cleaning in Tamiami runs between $350 and $650 for most single-family homes, with larger properties or heavily contaminated systems pushing closer to $900. Tamiami’s position at the eastern edge of the Everglades changes what accumulates inside ductwork, so the job here is rarely a routine dust removal. Most of what we pull out of Tamiami ducts is a dark, damp biofilm carrying Everglades-origin spores, not the household dust you’d find in a drier inland suburb. If you’d like a written quote before anything starts, call (469) 972-3151.
Why Tamiami Homes Are Different
Tamiami’s residential streets were mostly built out between the late 1960s and the 1990s, and the dominant profile is a single-story CBS home with a low-pitch roof and flex-duct runs through an unconditioned attic. In summer those attic spaces regularly exceed 140°F, which degrades duct liners and loosens joints faster than anywhere in Miami-Dade. Add the humidity, and you get a combination no other part of the county deals with quite the same way.
The real difference is geography. Tamiami sits directly along the Trail at the doorstep of the Everglades, so the air moving across the community carries sawgrass pollen, wetland organic matter, and mold spores from the marshes. Your AC runs essentially year-round to keep indoor humidity below 70%, and every cycle pulls a little more of that outside air through the return plenum. Over time, the inside of the ductwork develops a dark biofilm that homeowners mistake for ordinary dust. It isn’t. Homes closest to the canal and levee system on the west end of the Trail tend to show the heaviest buildup, especially in return-air boxes mounted low on interior walls where damp air settles.
Our Main Tamiami Services
The two calls we take most often from Tamiami homeowners are whole-system air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. Here’s what each involves here.
Air Duct Cleaning in Tamiami
Whole-system cleaning means getting every supply and return duct, the trunk lines, and the plenums. In Tamiami the work almost always includes removing the biofilm that forms when Everglades moisture meets attic heat inside flex-duct. We run a Rotobrush through the runs to break deposits off the duct walls, then hook a Nikro negative-air unit to the system so the loosened material is pulled out rather than pushed into the living space. The full breakdown, including pricing and what to expect from the 365-Day Done Right Promise, is on Air Duct Cleaning in Tamiami.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Tamiami
Dryer vents in Tamiami clog faster than most homeowners expect because the lint stays damp in the duct between cycles. A vent that would take years to build up blockage in a drier climate can become a fire hazard here in under eighteen months. We clean the entire run from the dryer connection to the exterior cap, including the lint trap bypass, and we check that the termination hood opens freely. Complete details are on Dryer Vent Cleaning in Tamiami.

What pushes a Tamiami job toward the high end is usually biofilm thickness inside the return plenum, deteriorated flex-duct liners that require slower, more careful brush work, and the extra time to clean low-mounted return boxes near the canals. Whatever the number, you get it in writing before a single vent is touched, and that written price does not change at the door.

What Tamiami Customers Say
"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."
- Preston Ngata"Our dryer was taking two cycles to dry a load. They cleaned the vent and pulled out a frightening amount of lint. Dries in one cycle now and honestly I feel better about the fire risk."
