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 Franklin, TN
Air duct cleaning in Franklin, TN typically runs $500 – $1,200 for a whole-home system in one of the city’s larger two-story homes, and most jobs take 4 – 6 hours with two technicians. What makes Franklin different is the housing stock: thousands of 3,000 – 5,000 square foot homes built between 2000 and 2015 in planned communities like Westhaven and Ladd Park, now hitting the age where flex-duct systems carry their heaviest debris loads. Call (980) 447-2498 for a written price before any work begins.
Why Franklin Homes Are Different
Franklin’s building boom from roughly 2000 to 2015 produced entire neighborhoods of large, two-story homes with two or three HVAC zones each. That means long runs of flexible ductwork snaking through tight attic spaces, much of it now 10 to 20 years old and never professionally cleaned. In Westhaven and McEwen Farms specifically, the traditional-style rooflines forced builders to run horizontal flex-duct in cramped attics, and those runs sag at low points over time, trapping dust, construction debris, and sometimes much worse. A technician who quotes the job without walking the attic will under-price it almost every time.
Middle Tennessee’s humid summers add another layer. Condensation forms near supply boots when cool air meets muggy attic air, and in flex duct with poorly installed insulation from the boom years, that moisture creates conditions where mold can take hold. Add Williamson County’s spring pollen load – oak, cedar, and grass from February through May – and return-air ductwork in Franklin fills with allergen-heavy dust faster than most homeowners realize. Older ranch homes from the 1970s and 1980s near the historic core and along Columbia Avenue have a different problem: original sheet-metal ducts with deteriorating internal lining that can shed particles into the air.
Our Main Franklin Services
Most Franklin homeowners call us for one of three things: a full air duct cleaning, a dryer vent cleaning, or a repair on ductwork that has failed. Here is what each involves in Franklin specifically.
Air Duct Cleaning in Franklin
We run negative-pressure extraction through the entire duct system, pulling debris out rather than brushing it deeper in. In Franklin’s larger homes, that means two technicians working through every supply and return, including the long flex-duct runs common in Westhaven and Berry Farms. We inspect each run for sagging, disconnected sections, and rodent intrusion as part of the job. If you are in one of the 2000s-era planned communities and the system has never been cleaned, expect a full day of work. Air Duct Cleaning in Franklin covers pricing and what the job includes.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Franklin
Dryer vents in Franklin’s two-story homes often run 20 to 30 feet through walls and attic spaces to reach an exterior exit, far longer than the 15-foot maximum the IRC building code recommends. Every bend and foot of that run collects lint, and a two-story run with multiple elbows is exactly the configuration that builds enough restriction to become a fire hazard. We clear the full run from dryer to exterior termination and verify airflow at the outlet. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Franklin has the full breakdown.
Air Duct Repair in Franklin
Sagging flex-duct, disconnected boots, crushed returns, and rodent-chewed sections are common in Franklin attics, especially in homes built during the fast-growth years when some insulation and duct installation was rushed. We repair and re-hang ductwork, seal leaks, and replace damaged sections. Every repair gets a written guarantee, and if a covered repair fails, we return at no charge. Air Duct Repair in Franklin explains what we fix and what it costs.

What pushes a Franklin quote higher is attic access and duct configuration: a two-story Westhaven home with long horizontal flex runs in a tight attic takes more labor than a ranch home with a walk-up attic and straight sheet-metal ductwork. Whatever the number, we put it in writing before any work starts, and that is the price you pay, no add-ons at the end.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Franklin
Most Franklin jobs are scheduled within a few business days of the call, depending on the season. The busiest stretch runs from late spring through early fall, when pollen and humidity push more homeowners to call. Call (980) 447-2498 and a live person will give you the first available date for your neighborhood.
In most Franklin planned communities, duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning are interior maintenance work and need no HOA approval. The exception is a dryer vent that terminates on an exterior wall or roofline in a neighborhood with strict exterior appearance rules – we can tell you on the phone whether your setup may need a quick check first.
We serve the whole city, including the older ranch homes near downtown and along Columbia Avenue, where original sheet-metal ductwork from the 1970s and 1980s presents a different set of problems than the flex-duct systems in the planned communities. The inspection process adapts to the home, not the other way around.
Franklin’s 2000s-era planned communities were built fast, and the ductwork in homes from that period often has long flex runs in tight attic spaces, rushed insulation, and connections that have worked loose over 15 to 20 years. A Franklin-specific inspection accounts for those patterns, which means a more accurate quote and a cleaning that addresses the actual condition of the system. Call (980) 447-2498 for a free estimate, and we will put the price in writing before any work starts.

What Franklin Customers Say
"We had construction dust packed into every register after a remodel. They sealed off the returns, used negative pressure, and left the floors cleaner than they found them."
- 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."
- Cheryl A."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."
