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 Lealman, FL
Lealman’s ductwork ages differently than almost anywhere else in Florida. The area’s dense stock of 1950s-1970s concrete-block homes, most with attic-run flex duct retrofitted decades ago, spends ten months a year cycling cool air through spaces that regularly hit 150°F during the day. That combination breeds condensation, mold, and duct collapse at rates you simply don’t see in newer subdivisions. We’re Kestrel Air Duct Cleaning, and we diagnose and clean these older systems every week across Lealman. Call us at (469) 972-3151 for a written price before any work begins.
Why Lealman Homes Are Different
Lealman sits on the low-lying Pinellas Peninsula, wedged between St. Petersburg and Pinellas Park, where Tampa Bay and Gulf humidity keep duct interiors perpetually cool and damp relative to the outside air. In a CBS home built in 1965 with original duct runs, that moisture condenses at every supply register when the AC kicks on. Add a decade of pet dander from successive renters and you get the kind of biological buildup that makes a system smell musty within minutes of startup.
The housing stock makes it worse. Many Lealman rentals are modest post-WWII concrete-block structures with flex ductwork that was undersized when installed and is now brittle from decades of attic heat cycling. We routinely find disconnected or partially collapsed runs in attics where the strapping has rotted away. The AC blows cold air into a 150°F attic while the return pulls attic air, mold spores, and whatever else is up there straight back into the living space. That’s not a maintenance issue; it’s a design reality of Lealman’s older homes, and it’s exactly what our home inspection process is built to catch.
Our Main Lealman Services
Lealman homeowners call us about two things more than anything else: duct systems that haven’t been touched since the last tenant moved out, and dryer vents that are quietly becoming a fire hazard. Both have dedicated pages with full local detail.
Air Duct Cleaning in Lealman
Air Duct Cleaning in Lealman starts with a full-system inspection of supply and return runs, boots, and the air handler. In older Lealman homes, we’re specifically looking for the disconnected flex runs, collapsed duct sections, and register mold that Penny-for-your-thoughts AC service calls miss. Rotobrush rotary agitation loosens the debris matted to duct walls; Nikro negative-pressure units extract it without recirculating dust through your living room. The goal is a system that moves air through clean, connected runs, not one still half-broken in the attic.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lealman
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lealman addresses a particular risk in Lealman’s aging rental stock: short, poorly secured flex transitions stuffed behind laundry closets and caked with years of lint. Because turnover is high, tenants rarely know when the vent was last cleaned, and the salt-laden Pinellas air accelerates corrosion on metal vent collars. Our process includes a lint trap bypass cleaning, so the cavity behind the trap itself is cleared, not just the visible duct.

What pushes a Lealman job toward the higher end? Attic access that requires crawling through tight, hot spaces, collapsed flex runs that need re-supporting rather than simple cleaning, and systems where mold remediation at the register boxes is required. What you won’t see is a price that changes when our van pulls up. You get a written quote before a single vent is touched, and that number holds.

What Lealman 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."
