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 Kenmore, NY
Air duct cleaning in Kenmore, NY typically costs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system, and the work usually takes 3 – 5 hours depending on how many vents and returns your house has. What makes Kenmore jobs different is the damp lake-and-river air that works its way into crawl spaces and ductwork year-round, so this is often as much about mold and mildew management as it is about dust. If you’re seeing dust on the furniture within days of cleaning or noticing a stale smell when the furnace kicks on, call us at (980) 447-2498 and we’ll walk through what’s going on.
Why Kenmore Homes Are Different
Kenmore sits at the north end of Lake Washington where the Sammamish River empties into the lake, and that position creates a persistently damp microclimate that neighboring cities like Bothell or Kirkland don’t feel to the same degree. The majority of homes here went up in the 1960s and 1970s as single-story ranch and split-level builds, and most of them run supply and return ducts through vented crawl spaces exposed to ground moisture. That means the sheet-metal ductwork in a typical Kenmore house has spent decades sitting in humid air for roughly half of every year.
The result is something our technicians see constantly: condensation on metal duct surfaces, deteriorating mastic seals at the connections, crimped flex-duct sections, and biological growth that has had years to take hold. Along 68th Ave NE near the river mouth especially, we routinely find flex ducts with visible mold on the exterior jacket and standing moisture in low-point sections. Duct cleaning in Kenmore is rarely just about pulling out household dust. It’s about correcting the conditions this specific geography creates.
Our Main Kenmore Services
The two calls we answer most from Kenmore homeowners are full-system air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning, with duct repair close behind because older crawl-space systems here take a beating from moisture. Each service has its own Kenmore page with full pricing and details.
Air Duct Cleaning in Kenmore
Whole-home air duct cleaning in Kenmore means negative-pressure extraction through every supply and return register, with the blower and coil cabinet opened and hand-cleaned. In most ranch homes here, that also means inspecting the crawl-space trunk lines where humid air has been condensing against the metal for decades. We see compacted debris, failed duct seals, and biological growth far more often than the dusty-but-dry systems you’d find in higher-elevation towns. Read the full breakdown on our Air Duct Cleaning in Kenmore page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Kenmore
Kenmore’s split-level and ranch layouts often push dryer vents into long horizontal runs through crawl spaces, and lint collects faster the longer and damper the run. We pull the dryer out, clean from the appliance to the exterior termination, and check the outdoor flap. In lakeside neighborhoods, we also look for moisture wicking into the vent from outside, which turns ordinary lint into a matted, stubborn blockage. Details are on the Dryer Vent Cleaning in Kenmore page.
Air Duct Repair in Kenmore
Fifty-year-old ductwork in a damp crawl space fails in predictable ways: separated joints, collapsed flex sections, corroded hangers, and seals that have turned to chalk. Repair work in Kenmore usually focuses on re-sealing connections, replacing damaged flex runs, and correcting low-point sags where condensation pools. Every repair we do is covered by a written guarantee with a free second visit if it doesn’t hold. Learn more at Air Duct Repair in Kenmore.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Kenmore
Most Kenmore jobs are scheduled within one to two business days, and same-week appointments are typically available. The lakeside and river-corridor neighborhoods tend to book up during the wet season, so call (980) 447-2498 to lock in a time that works for you.
Duct cleaning itself almost never requires a permit or HOA approval anywhere in Kenmore. If your crawl-space access is shared or located behind a shared wall in a small-lot development, we can work around whatever scheduling or access rules your association has.
That’s a common condition here because of the lake and river proximity. We start with a visual inspection, then recommend mold and mildew treatment before cleaning. You’ll know the full price before we begin, and the treatment protocol is included on every written estimate.

What Kenmore Customers Say
"Thorough job on all eleven vents and the main trunk. Took longer than the three hours they quoted, but he told me early and kept working. Air feels fresher."
- Meredith L."Tech arrived with a badge and a printed sheet of what he'd be doing. Ran a camera through the main trunk before and after so I could see the dust difference. Vents smell cleaner already."
- Gina R."Priced by the system, not by the vent, and he told me up front. No pressure to add the sanitizer and I said no without any fuss."
- Faith N.
