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 Cavalero, WA
Air duct cleaning in Cavalero tends to run between $450 and $950 for a whole single-family home, and the work usually takes half a day. What makes Cavalero jobs different is the housing stock: most homes here were built in the 1990s and 2000s, which means original flex duct in vented crawlspaces is now hitting the age where mold and compressed dust become real problems. Add Snohomish County’s damp, low-lying air and you get duct systems that need more than a quick pass. If you’re wondering what it costs, call (980) 447-2498 and we’ll quote it in writing before anyone sets foot in your house.
Why Cavalero Homes Are Different
Cavalero is a low-elevation community in Snohomish County that grew fast during the 1990s and early 2000s tract-home boom. That timing matters now. Most of the single-family homes here run forced-air gas furnaces with flexible duct routed through unconditioned crawlspaces, and that original ductwork is now 20 to 30 years old. Flex duct in a vented crawlspace sags over time, and the low points collect dust, pet hair, and construction debris. The bigger issue is moisture. Cavalero sits on flat, wetland-adjacent terrain, and unlike hillier parts of the county, ground-level dampness lingers. When warm furnace air moves through cold crawlspace duct in shoulder season, the flex duct sweats. That condensation at the boot connection is where we find visible mold on a large share of jobs in this neighborhood, and it’s the single most common reason Cavalero homeowners call us for the first time.
The Puget Sound Convergence Zone also plays a role. This corridor picks up measurably more rain than areas further south, which keeps ambient humidity high through fall, winter, and spring. Then late-summer wildfire smoke from the Cascades and Eastern Washington pushes people indoors with windows sealed, and the HVAC system becomes the only filter. Ducts in Cavalero accumulate both biological growth and fine particulate faster than in drier parts of the state, which is why the 20-30 year mark tends to be the first serious cleaning window for original builder-grade systems.
Our Main Cavalero Services
Homeowners in Cavalero call us most often for two of our three services, and each has its own page here with pricing and specifics.
Air Duct Cleaning in Cavalero
Whole-system cleaning in Cavalero means pulling negative-pressure extraction through every supply and return run, not just the registers you can see from the hallway. The crawlspace flex duct that’s standard in this housing stock gets the most attention, because that’s where sagging runs collect debris and where condensation first shows up at boot connections. We inspect the full path from furnace plenum to floor register before quoting. Full details, including what’s included and what pushes cost up, are on the Air Duct Cleaning in Cavalero page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Cavalero
Dryer vents in Cavalero tend to be longer than builders intended, and in 1990s tract homes they often route through interior walls or crawlspace chases where lint accumulates without anyone noticing. A slow-drying load or a dryer that feels hot to the touch is usually the first sign. We clear the full run from the dryer throat to the exterior termination, and on Cavalero homes with ground-level or roof terminations near damp landscaping, we check for the lint plug that traps moisture and feeds mold. Details are on the Dryer Vent Cleaning in Cavalero page.
Air Duct Repair in Cavalero
When flex duct under a Cavalero home has sagged or separated at a boot connection, cleaning alone won’t fix it. We repair and re-secure duct runs, seal boot joints, and replace damaged flex where needed. Every repair job comes with a written guarantee, and if a covered repair doesn’t hold, we return at no charge. The crawlspace conditions in this community mean repair and cleaning often go together, which is why we quote both honestly. See the Air Duct Repair in Cavalero page for what’s covered.

- Paul E."I liked that I knew who was coming in. Name and photo texted ahead, badge at the door. He was quiet, careful with the furniture, and thorough."
