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 Carrollton, TX
Air duct cleaning in Carrollton is a different job than it is in most of North Texas, because so much of the city’s housing stock was built between 1978 and 1993 with ductwork that has simply aged out. Most homes run between $285 and $475 for a full cleaning, depending on system size, and the work usually takes three to five hours. Call us at (469) 972-3151 and we’ll give you a written price before anything starts.
Why Carrollton Homes Are Different
Carrollton’s heaviest residential build-out happened between roughly 1978 and 1993, which means a large share of the city’s single-family homes are now 30 to 45 years old with original flex duct or fiberglass duct board that has never been replaced. The age alone isn’t the problem. It’s where the ductwork lives. In nearly every one of these tract homes, the supply and return trunks run entirely through unconditioned attic space that routinely hits 140 to 160 degrees in a DFW summer. That heat bakes the inner liners of flex duct until they degrade and separate from the inside, creating hidden pockets that trap dust, mold spores, and allergens.
Add the climate, and the system never gets a break. Mountain cedar arrives in January, oak and elm follow in spring, ragweed and grass run through fall. The HVAC system moves that pollen load through the ductwork almost year-round. When gulf moisture pushes humidity up against hot attic air, condensation forms inside poorly insulated older ducts, which accelerates mold growth in exactly those separated liner pockets. A standard cleaning here isn’t cosmetic. It’s removing years of accumulated material that a newer home in a cooler climate would never have collected.
Carrollton also sits on the Blackland Prairie’s expansive clay. Decades of seasonal soil shrink-and-swell causes subtle slab movement, particularly in older south Carrollton neighborhoods. We regularly find supply boot connections that have shifted just enough to pull raw attic insulation fibers and debris directly into the duct stream. Homeowners see it as a gray fibrous buildup at the registers and assume it’s ordinary dust. It’s not. It’s attic insulation entering the conditioned space, and it should be addressed during the cleaning.
Our Main Carrollton Services
Most Carrollton homeowners call us for one of two jobs, and each has its own dedicated page so you can get the full picture before dialing.
Air Duct Cleaning in Carrollton
This is the full-system job: supply trunks, return ducts, registers, and the air handler interior. In Carrollton, a large portion of the work involves clearing the separated flex-duct liners and brittle duct board common to 1978 to 1993 construction. We use negative-air extraction, which means a powerful vacuum pulls loosened debris out through a sealed system while brush agitation dislodges what’s stuck to the duct walls. The result is ductwork that moves air without recycling years of accumulated material back into the living space. Air Duct Cleaning in Carrollton covers pricing, process, and what to expect from start to finish.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Carrollton
Dryer vents in Carrollton run long, hot, and often through attics, which is a bad combination when lint builds up. Lint trap bypass is the step most homeowners never see: we clean the full vent run from the dryer connection to the exterior termination, not just the lint trap and the first few feet. In older Carrollton homes, we frequently find flattened or sagging aluminum flex connectors that trap lint regardless of how often the trap is cleaned. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Carrollton explains the full process, why it matters for fire safety, and what you’ll pay.

What pushes a Carrollton job toward the higher end is usually attic access. Tight clearances, blown-in insulation covering the duct runs, and long trunk lines through a 140-degree attic all add time. The price you’re quoted is the price you pay. It’s in writing before a single vent is touched, and if the system needs more than the quote covers, we stop and discuss it with you before proceeding.

What Carrollton Customers Say
"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."
- Marcus Lee"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."
