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 Duluth, GA
Duluth homes collect more dust in their ducts than most Georgia houses, and the reason is plain: big two-story Colonials and Craftsman builds from the 1990s and 2000s, long flex duct runs through unconditioned attics, and summer heat that bakes those attic spaces past 130°F. Kestrel Air Duct Cleaning works on those homes every week, and we price the job in writing before any equipment comes off the truck. If you’d like a quote for your Duluth home, call (469) 972-3151 and we’ll talk through what you’re seeing and what it will cost.
Why Duluth Homes Are Different
Duluth sits at the center of Gwinnett County’s big suburban build-out, and it shows in the housing stock. Most homes here went up between roughly 1988 and 2008, in the 2,800 to 5,000 square foot range, with multi-zone HVAC systems and long flex duct runs stretched across main attics and secondary attics above bonus rooms. That means more duct footage per home than you’d find in a smaller, older house in Norcross or a newer build in Suwanee.
The climate works against that ductwork in two ways at once. Summer attic temperatures routinely exceed 130°F, which degrades flex duct inner liners and causes joints to pull apart. At the same time, Georgia Piedmont humidity drives dew points high enough that condensation forms on any duct surface that isn’t properly sealed or insulated. That’s a real mold risk inside supply runs, not a scare tactic. When we clean ducts in Duluth, we’re almost always dealing with some combination of cracked liners, separated joints, and moisture damage. It’s the local pattern.
Our Main Duluth Services
The two calls we get most often from Duluth homeowners are for air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. Here’s what each one involves in this part of Gwinnett County.
Air Duct Cleaning in Duluth
Full air duct cleaning in Duluth means pulling built-up dust, pet dander, and construction debris out of all supply and return runs, including the secondary trunk lines that serve bonus rooms and finished basements. Those secondary systems get skipped a lot, and in Duluth they’re common enough that we specifically check for them on every job. We use negative-air extraction to pull loosened debris out of the living space rather than pushing it around. For the full breakdown of process and pricing, see Air Duct Cleaning in Duluth.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Duluth
Dryer vents in Duluth homes tend to run longer and hotter than average, especially in two-story layouts where the laundry room sits against an interior wall and the vent climbs through the attic before it exits. That length gives lint more places to collect, and the summer attic heat makes that buildup more likely to hold moisture. We clean the full run from the dryer to the outside termination, using a brush system that breaks the lint loose and a negative-pressure unit that pulls it out. Details are on Dryer Vent Cleaning in Duluth.

Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning Company in Duluth, GA
Every Duluth job gets a written price before work begins. The written quote is in your hands before a single vent is touched, and it doesn’t change at the door. Here’s what you can expect based on your home’s size and configuration:
| Service | Typical range in Duluth |
|---|---|
| Single-system home (up to 10 vents) | $450-$700 |
| Two-system home (11-20 vents) | $700-$1,100 |
| Large or three-zone home (21+ vents) | $1,100-$1,600 |
| Secondary attic system add-on | $150-$300 |
| HEPA filtration upgrade | $250-$450 |
| Dryer vent cleaning (standard run) | $125-$200 |
| Dryer vent cleaning (extended or attic run) | $175-$325 |
| Flex duct repair (per section) | Crew evaluates and quotes in writing first |
Duluth pricing runs toward the higher end of these ranges when a home has a third air handler, a steep attic access, or a vent run that hasn’t been cleaned in more than a decade. The price we give you is the price you pay, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise comes with it in writing. If the work falls short within the guarantee period, we come back and make it right at no charge.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Duluth
We typically schedule Duluth appointments within the same week you call, sometimes sooner depending on crew availability. Our dispatch coordinates from the nearby Atlanta office, so Duluth slots fill quickly during spring and fall. Call (469) 972-3151 and we’ll give you a specific day and arrival window on the phone.
No. Duct cleaning is an interior service and doesn’t require HOA approval in any Duluth community we’ve worked in. The only exception is if access requires a crew member to enter an attic through a hallway or bedroom, which is standard interior work and not something your HOA regulates.
We’ll quote both systems separately and clean both in the same visit. Many Duluth homes have a secondary unit in a lower side-attic serving a bonus room or finished basement, and we always check for that on the initial walkthrough. If a previous cleaning skipped it, we’ll show you what’s in there before we start.

What Duluth 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."
