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 Florence-Graham, CA
Air duct cleaning in Florence-Graham, CA typically runs between $325 and $585 for a whole-home system, with most 3-4 bedroom homes landing around $420-$490. What makes Florence-Graham jobs different is the air itself: this unincorporated community sits in the diesel freight corridor between the I-710 and the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, so ductwork here collects PM2.5, diesel soot, and industrial fallout at rates you won’t see in cleaner parts of the LA Basin. Call (469) 972-3151 for a written quote before any work begins.
Why Florence-Graham Homes Are Different
Florence-Graham’s housing stock is dominated by post-WWII stucco bungalows and small tract homes built between the 1940s and 1960s. Most still run their original duct systems: rigid metal runs with deteriorating mastic seals, cloth-backed tape that’s long since dried out, and early flex connections that collapse inward over decades and trap particulate. We see this exact pattern on nearly every older Florence-Graham job we inspect.
The bigger factor is geography. The South LA Basin’s persistent thermal inversions hold ground-level pollutants low, and Florence-Graham sits squarely in that zone. Combine the I-710 truck traffic, the port activity, and a low-lying position that gives polluted air nowhere to escape, and you get duct systems that load up with diesel particulate and fine dust faster than elevated or coastal neighborhoods. It’s a health issue here, not just a comfort issue.
There’s also a compliance angle most homeowners don’t realize until a contractor shows up: Florence-Graham is unincorporated LA County, which means HVAC and duct work falls under LA County DPH and Department of Public Works codes, not City of LA permits. Shops that habitually pull LA city permits or quote city code are out of jurisdiction here. We’re familiar with the county-governed process and quote accordingly.
Our Main Florence-Graham Services
The two services Florence-Graham homeowners call us about most are air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. Each has its own detailed page with local specifics and pricing.
Air Duct Cleaning in Florence-Graham
Duct cleaning here means more than knocking dust loose. Florence-Graham systems accumulate diesel particulate and port-related PM2.5 that penetrate deep into return plenums and supply runs. We run Rotobrush rotary brush agitation through every accessible run to dislodge debris at the duct wall, then pair it with Nikro negative-pressure extraction to pull contaminants out instead of stirring them into the living space. Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration keeps loosened particles from re-entering rooms during the job. Full details are on the Air Duct Cleaning in Florence-Graham page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Florence-Graham
Dryer vents in Florence-Graham work harder than most. The same airborne particulate that loads ductwork also clogs dryer exhaust runs, and older tract homes often route vents through long, multi-bend runs that trap lint fast. We clear the full run from dryer to exterior termination, check airflow at the exit point, and flag any section that’s collapsed or improperly supported. For specifics on what a Florence-Graham dryer vent job involves, see Dryer Vent Cleaning in Florence-Graham.

Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning Company in Florence-Graham, CA
| Service | Typical range in Florence-Graham |
|---|---|
| Whole-home air duct cleaning (up to 10 vents) | $325 - $425 |
| Whole-home air duct cleaning (11-16 vents) | $425 - $525 |
| Whole-home air duct cleaning (17+ vents) | $525 - $585 |
| Dryer vent cleaning (standard single-story run) | $95 - $145 |
| Dryer vent cleaning (long or multi-bend run) | $145 - $195 |
| Dryer vent cleaning (roof termination) | $175 - $225 |
| Return plenum and main trunk line deep clean | $150 - $250 |
| Supply register and grille cleaning (per 10) | $40 - $70 |
| Flex duct replacement (per 10-foot section) | $85 - $135 |
| Mastic reseal of accessible duct joints (per job) | $120 - $200 |
Two things push Florence-Graham prices toward the upper end of these ranges: the age of the ductwork (1940s-1960s systems need more careful handling and often more resealing) and the contaminant load itself, which means longer extraction time per run. Whatever the number, you get it in writing before a single vent is touched, and that price does not change at the door.

What Florence-Graham 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."
