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 West Lealman, FL
Air duct cleaning in West Lealman runs between $380 and $575 for most single-family homes, with the final number depending on how many systems the house has, how many returns feed them, and how long the attic runs have been collecting Pinellas County humidity. We’re Kestrel Air Duct Cleaning, and we work West Lealman differently because the homes here were largely built between the late 1940s and the 1970s, then retrofitted with flex duct that’s spent decades baking in 140-degree attics. Call (469) 972-3151 and you’ll get a straight price before we touch a single vent.
Why West Lealman Homes Are Different
West Lealman sits on Florida’s most enclosed peninsula, hemmed in by Tampa Bay on one side and the Gulf on the other. That geography means the air here holds moisture almost year-round, and when that humid air meets a cold supply duct in a hot attic, condensation forms. Inside a duct, condensation is mold’s invitation. We see it in nearly every aging West Lealman home we open up, and it’s the reason our cleaning process treats every job here as a mold-removal conversation, not just a debris pickup.
The housing stock compounds the problem. Most homes in West Lealman are post-WWII concrete block, built from the late 1940s through the 1970s. Central air came later, which meant ductwork got retrofitted into attic spaces that were never designed to hold it. Much of that flex duct dates to the 1980s and 1990s, and after thirty or forty years of Pinellas heat, it’s often kinked, collapsed, or torn. A collapsed duct doesn’t just waste cooling; it traps debris and gives mold a dark, wet pocket to grow in. Technicians working older rental blocks in West Lealman also learn to check for something most cleaners miss: original 1950s and 60s floor-furnace grilles and wall-register boxes that were left in place when central systems were added. They create blind dead-end cavities packed with decades of debris and roach activity, and a standard duct cleaning scope ignores them entirely. We don’t.
Our Main West Lealman Services
West Lealman homeowners call us for two jobs more than anything else: cleaning the air ducts that circulate air through the house, and clearing the dryer vent that carries lint and heat outside. Each has its own page with full pricing and details.
Air Duct Cleaning in West Lealman
Whole-system air duct cleaning in West Lealman means pulling every supply and return register, brushing the duct walls to dislodge what’s stuck there, and running negative-pressure extraction so loosened debris leaves the house instead of drifting into the living room. In West Lealman specifically, we’re watching for mold on register faces, rust from condensation, and flex duct that’s torn or collapsed in the attic. We document what we find with before-and-after photos of your actual ducts, not stock images. Air Duct Cleaning in West Lealman covers full pricing and the 365-Day Done Right Promise in detail.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in West Lealman
Dryer vents in West Lealman clog faster than most homeowners expect because the humidity here keeps lint sticky, so it clings to the vent walls and builds up in layers rather than blowing out the exterior hood. We clean the full run from the dryer’s lint trap bypass to the exterior termination, and we remove the lint trap itself and clear the cavity behind it, where a surprising amount of blockage hides. Lint is fuel for dryer fires, and a clogged vent also makes every load take longer to dry. Dryer Vent Cleaning in West Lealman has the full breakdown.

What West Lealman Customers Say
"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."
- 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."
