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 Sweetwater, FL
Sweetwater’s ductwork faces a set of conditions you won’t find anywhere else in Miami-Dade. Sitting at the western edge of developed county land, the city borders the Everglades conservation buffer directly, and that position means the air feeding your AC intake carries more organic matter, pollen, and fungal spores than almost anywhere else in the metro. Kestrel Air Duct Cleaning serves Sweetwater homeowners with written pricing before any work starts and a 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing on every job. Most homes here run between $325 and $675 for whole-system air duct cleaning, depending on home size and how long it’s been since the last cleaning. Call (469) 972-3151 for a free estimate.
Why Sweetwater Homes Are Different
Sweetwater’s residential stock is mostly 1970s through 1990s concrete block construction, and a large share of those homes were built with duct-board or early flex-duct systems that have never been replaced. In South Florida humidity, that matters. The inner liners of older flex ducts hold moisture, and when AC runs nearly year-round, the ducts cycle through condensation and drying constantly, which creates ideal conditions for mold colonization inside the liner itself. We see homes within a mile of the Everglades buffer where supply ducts grew visible mold within five years of installation, something you rarely encounter in coastal neighborhoods to the east.
Sweetwater also has one of Miami-Dade’s highest proportions of long-term rental units with quick tenant turnover. Between leases, most landlords don’t schedule duct cleaning, so pet dander, cooking grease particles, and mold colonies from successive occupants accumulate in the same duct runs year after year. Some systems we open in Sweetwater show buildup dating back to the original installation. That’s not a criticism of property owners; it’s simply what happens when a system that should be cleaned every three to five years goes two or three times that long without attention.
Our Main Sweetwater Services
Sweetwater homeowners call us most often about two jobs: the full air duct cleaning of a home’s HVAC system, and dryer vent cleaning to clear lint from the exhaust path. Each service has its own page with the details, pricing ranges, and what to expect.
Air Duct Cleaning in Sweetwater
In Sweetwater, whole-system air duct cleaning means addressing not just the visible supply registers but the return side, the main trunk lines, and the flex-duct branches that run through the attic or chaseways of a CBS home. The constant humidity against the Everglades edge means biofilm forms on interior duct surfaces faster here than in drier inland cities. Our technicians use Rotobrush rotary brush agitation to dislodge debris at the duct wall, paired with Nikro negative-pressure extraction to pull the loosened material out of the home, and Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration to keep those particles out of your living space during the work. For the full picture of what’s involved, see Air Duct Cleaning in Sweetwater.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Sweetwater
Dryer vents in Sweetwater run from the laundry area to the exterior through CBS walls, and the humid air moving through that run coats the interior with damp lint that hardens into a nearly solid blockage over time. We see vents here that are so packed with years of accumulated lint that airflow drops to almost nothing, forcing the dryer to run multiple cycles per load. Our process clears the full length of the run, from the dryer connection through the exterior cap, and we check the cap for proper operation before we leave. For pricing and the specific method we use, see Dryer Vent Cleaning in Sweetwater.

Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning Company in Sweetwater, FL
| Service | Typical range in Sweetwater |
|---|---|
| Whole-home air duct cleaning (single system, 1-2 stories) | $325-$675 |
| Larger homes or dual systems | $675-$1,100 |
| Single-vent visual inspection with camera | $0 with any cleaning |
| Air handler / blower compartment cleaning | $150-$300 |
| Return-side duct cleaning only | $200-$400 |
| Dryer vent cleaning | $130-$225 |
| Dryer vent + dryer internal lint clearing | $175-$300 |
| Mold or heavy biofilm treatment (mild cases) | $200-$500 |
| Whole-system antimicrobial fogging | $250-$450 |
What pushes a Sweetwater price toward the higher end of these ranges is usually the home’s age and the condition of the flex-duct liners. If a system hasn’t been cleaned in ten or fifteen years and shows mold growth throughout, the job takes longer and needs more aggressive agitation and extraction. Whatever the final figure, you get a written price before any work begins, and that price doesn’t change at the door.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Sweetwater
Most Sweetwater appointments are scheduled within five to seven business days. We’re not an emergency service, and we’d rather schedule honestly than promise a window we can’t keep. When we set an appointment, we give you a defined arrival window and we show up inside it.
No. Air duct cleaning is an interior maintenance service and doesn’t require a city permit or HOA sign-off in Sweetwater. If your HOA has contractor access rules for gated communities, we’ll need the gate code or a contact at the guardhouse on the day of the appointment.
If the work we performed doesn’t hold up within 365 days, we return and make it right at no charge. The promise is in writing on every job. To invoke it, you call us, tell us what’s wrong, and we schedule the return visit. That’s the whole process.

What Sweetwater 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."
