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 Ennis, TX
Air duct cleaning in Ennis runs $395 – $595 for a typical single-system ranch home, and the reason it trends toward the upper end has everything to do with what’s under the slab. Ennis sits on Blackland Prairie clay that swells and contracts through every wet-dry cycle, and that movement cracks duct boot connections and pulls flex duct loose from registers in ways you won’t see in cities built on firmer ground. The result is soil, dust, and the occasional insect getting into air you breathe. Call (980) 447-2498 for a written quote before any work starts.
Why Ennis Homes Are Different
Most homes here are 1960s – 1980s ranch-style builds on slab foundations, and a large share still runs original or early-replacement flex duct. That ductwork is now 40 to 60 years old. Flex duct stiffens, the inner liner cracks, and the outer jacket tears. Combined with the clay soil beneath the slab heaving with every wet spring and baked summer, disconnected or partially collapsed sections are a routine finding in Ennis rather than a surprise. When a boot separates from the floor register, whatever is in the plenum – fine soil, fiberglass particles, insect debris – moves into the living space every time the blower kicks on.
Then there’s the harvest factor. Ennis is ringed by cotton and grain fields, and from late summer through fall, agricultural lint and chaff hang in the air. Return-air systems pull that fine dust through attic penetrations and leaky boots. Homeowners here consistently see filters clog faster and duct interiors load with field dust in a pattern that suburban streets in newer-built parts of Ellis County don’t experience the same way. The work here isn’t just cleaning; it’s knowing what’s been coming through the returns and where the leaks likely are.
Our Main Ennis Services
Most Ennis homeowners call us first about two things: air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. Air duct repair often follows once we find what a camera inspection shows.
Air Duct Cleaning in Ennis
We run negative-pressure extraction on the full duct system, cleaning supply and return runs, boots, and the main trunk, then treat the interior with an antimicrobial where needed. In Ennis, the age of the flex duct and the clay-induced boot separations mean we spend a good share of the job re-securing register connections that have pulled loose. The result is cleaner airflow and fewer places for soil and insects to enter. Full details are on the Air Duct Cleaning in Ennis page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Ennis
Dryer vents in older Ennis ranch homes often run long horizontal distances to reach an exterior wall, sometimes 15 feet or more. Lint builds at every bend, and a duct that long has more bends than a shorter rise. We clean the full run, clear the lint trap bypass, and check the termination flap outside. That flap matters here because field mice and wasps find garage and exterior vents faster in an agricultural town. See Dryer Vent Cleaning in Ennis for what the job covers.
Air Duct Repair in Ennis
Foundation movement in Ennis is the single biggest driver of duct repair calls we take. When slab heave shifts a boot, the flex duct tears at the collar or pulls entirely free, and the system starts pulling air from the crawlspace or attic instead of the returns. We repair or replace damaged sections, re-secure boots, and seal connections with mastic, not tape. Every repair carries a written 365-day guarantee with a free second visit if it doesn’t hold. See Air Duct Repair in Ennis.

No. Duct cleaning and dryer vent work are interior maintenance, and no Ellis County or City of Ennis permit is required. HOA rules here don’t cover what happens inside the duct runs your utility closet and registers. We handle the work without any association sign-off needed.
A live person answers every call, day or night. No voicemail queues. Before the visit, we send the technician’s name and photo, and the same tech shows a photo ID at the door. You’ll know who’s driving down your street before the van pulls up, every time.

What Ennis Customers Say
"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."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.
