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 Dickinson, TX
Air duct cleaning in Dickinson, TX typically costs between $380 and $620 for a full home system, depending on home size and duct condition. We’re Kestrel Air Duct Cleaning, and we’ve built our reputation in Dickinson on one thing: showing up with a written price, doing the work thoroughly, and standing behind it in writing. Homes here carry dust, salt, and sometimes Harvey-era contamination that other markets simply don’t have. Call (469) 972-3151 and you’ll get a live person, a straight answer, and a price before any work begins.
Why Dickinson Homes Are Different
Dickinson sits about seven miles from Galveston Bay, which means two things for your ductwork: sustained humidity that never really lets up, and salt-laden air that accelerates corrosion at metal duct connections and air handler plenums. We open plenums in Dickinson homes every week and find rust at the seams that you won’t see in Houston or Pearland. The housing stock compounds the problem. Most homes here are 1970s to 1990s single-story ranch homes on slab foundations, many along Dickinson Bayou, and their flex duct systems are approaching 30 to 40 years old. Flex duct breaks down. The inner liner delaminates, the insulation batting holds moisture, and the whole system starts leaking conditioned air into the attic while pulling attic dust and humidity back in. Add the post-Harvey rebuild wave, and you’ve got a second issue: hastily installed replacement duct systems that were never properly sealed, sitting right alongside original duct runs that should have been replaced decades ago. A Dickinson duct job isn’t a routine vacuum-out. It’s an inspection of what Harvey left behind, what the humidity has done since, and what’s actually moving through the air you breathe.
The Harvey piece matters more than most homeowners realize. We’ll get into that below, because it’s the defining air quality issue for this market, and almost nobody talks about it honestly.
Our Main Dickinson Services
Dickinson homeowners most often call us about two jobs: cleaning the air ducts that carry heated and cooled air through the house, and clearing dryer vents that clog with lint and Gulf humidity. Each service has its own dedicated Dickinson page with full pricing and details.
Air Duct Cleaning in Dickinson
We connect a negative-air extraction unit to your duct system, which means we pull air through the ducts under vacuum while agitating the duct walls with a rotary brush. In plain terms: we dislodge what’s stuck to the inside of the ducts and pull it out of the house, not just stir it around. In Dickinson, that debris is often a mix of salt dust, humidity-hardened lint, drywall dust from post-Harvey renovations, and in too many homes, mold at flex-duct collars that’s been recirculating for years. Full details on process, pricing, and what to expect are on the Air Duct Cleaning in Dickinson page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Dickinson
We clean the full dryer vent run from the back of the dryer to the exterior termination point, using a rotary brush system that scrubs the vent walls while a vacuum pulls the loosened lint out. Dickinson’s humidity makes lint heavier and stickier than in drier climates, so vents here clog faster and harder. We also inspect the termination point and the lint trap bypass, which is the gap inside the dryer where lint sneaks past the trap you pull out and clean. Details and pricing are on the Dryer Vent Cleaning in Dickinson page.

What Dickinson 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."
