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.

AfterFast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Bronx
Air duct cleaning in Bronx, NY typically costs $450 – $900 for a full system in a single-family home, and $350 – $650 per air handler in larger multifamily buildings. Most jobs take four to seven hours from camera inspection to final photo documentation.

We know the Bronx’s buildings. Pre-war brick walk-ups with retrofitted ductwork. NYCHA towers with centralized risers. Co-op City’s 35 high-rises with systems installed in the late 1960s and cleaned, in many cases, never. The borough’s housing stock is unlike Manhattan’s high-end conversions or Brooklyn’s brownstones, and the ductwork inside it tells that story. We’ve been working in these buildings since 2004, and our Air Duct Cleaning team has seen what decades of deferred maintenance looks like inside a supply register on East Tremont Avenue.
Why Linden Air Duct Cleaning Is Bronx’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Let’s talk about what actually matters when you open your door to a technician in the Bronx. You want to know who is coming. You want to know the price before the work starts. You want proof the work happened. We send the technician’s name and photo to you before the visit. They arrive in a marked uniform and show a photo ID badge at the door. The price is in writing before any equipment comes off the truck. That is the Threshold Standard, and it applies to every job we do in Bronx.
Marcus Veale leads our team, and he’s built the operation around a simple principle: a homeowner should never have to wonder if they got what they paid for. That’s why every air duct repair carries a 365-Day Done Right Promise. If the work isn’t right, we come back and make it right, in writing, no fine print. You can call (980) 447-2498 any hour and a live person answers. Not a voicemail loop. Not an automated attendant. A person who can tell you when a crew can be in your neighborhood.
Bronx customers tell us the same thing: they chose us because the verification was visible. Background-checked technician. Photo sent ahead. Written price. Written guarantee. It’s not complicated, but it’s rare in this trade.
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Bronx
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Bronx covers everything from small retail storefronts on Fordham Road to the vertical duct risers in pre-war office buildings near the Hub. A typical commercial job in Bronx runs $1,200 – $4,500 depending on the number of rooftop units, the length of duct runs, and whether the building has a shared central system or individual air handlers per floor. The work involves negative-pressure extraction, which means we seal the system and pull air through HEPA filtration while agitating the duct walls to remove built-up debris. The quote is per system, not per vent, and it’s in writing before we start.
Multi-Zone and Rooftop Unit Cleaning
Many Bronx commercial spaces run two or more rooftop units feeding separate zones. One unit might serve the front retail area while another handles offices in the back. Pricing per system means you know exactly which unit we’re cleaning and what it costs. We camera-inspect each system before quoting so there are no surprises behind a finished wall or above a drop ceiling.
Shared Building Stack Inspection
In older Bronx walk-up buildings, multiple tenants often share a vertical duct stack. Cleaning those requires coordination we handle directly. We document every section with before-and-after photos so building owners and tenant boards have records of what was accessed and cleaned.
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Bronx
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Bronx homes typically cost $450 – $900 for a single-family house and $350 – $650 per air handler where there are multiple systems. The price is per system, not per vent. We agree on the scope before the job starts, and that number doesn’t change when the van pulls up. The work itself involves source removal: we set up negative pressure, run agitation tools through the supply and return runs, and capture the debris at the extraction point rather than pushing it into your rooms. Every job ends with photos of the inside of your ducts, so you see what was there and what’s gone.
Full System Cleaning With Video Inspection
Before we quote, we run a camera through the main supply and return lines. This catches problems a visual register check misses: collapsed flex duct, disconnected joints, accumulated debris beyond the first few feet. In older Bronx homes with long horizontal runs, a camera inspection is the difference between cleaning everything and cleaning the first six feet.
Supply and Return Duct Restoration
Supply ducts push conditioned air into your rooms. Return ducts pull air back to the system. Both need cleaning, and in many Bronx residences, the return side is far dirtier because it’s been drawing unfiltered air for years. We clean both, document both, and replace air filters as part of the job.

Trusted Brands We Service in Bronx
Our crews run equipment from Rotobrush and Nikro, trade-trusted brands built for the kind of dense, fibrous debris we regularly pull from Bronx ductwork. We also work with air-quality components from Aprilaire and Guardsman, so if your system needs a better filter housing or an antimicrobial treatment after cleaning, we can install it during the same visit. Because our Bronx dispatch coordinates from the New York City office, we keep the most common replacement parts stocked locally, which means less waiting when a repair is needed mid-job.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Bronx Homes
If you’ve lived in the Bronx for any length of time, you’ve probably seen some version of these. They’re not random. They’re predictable, and they’re fixable.
- Diesel particulate deposits along the Cross Bronx corridor. In neighborhoods like Tremont, East Tremont, and Fordham, supply registers accumulate a greasy black film that is not ordinary household dust. It’s diesel soot from the constant truck traffic on I-95, and it layers inside duct runs over years.
- Multiple air handlers that were never each cleaned. A brick three-story near the Grand Concourse will often have two or three separate systems: one for the basement, one for the main floors, one for the attic. If a previous cleaning only treated one, the rest sit untouched.
- Elevated mold and bacterial buildup near the rivers. Buildings close to the Harlem River or the Bronx River deal with ambient moisture that wicks into ductwork. Combined with hot, humid summers, that creates conditions where duct interiors host biological growth you cannot see from a register.
- Unserviced centralized systems in Co-op City and NYCHA complexes. These buildings have aging ductwork, some of it original from the 1968 – 1973 construction era. Many units have never had a professional cleaning, which means decades of accumulated debris inside shared risers.

Here is what you can expect to pay in the Bronx market. A single-family home with one furnace and typical ductwork runs $450 – $900.

Commercial jobs range $1,200 – $4,500 depending on the building’s layout and number of rooftop units. The price is always in writing before any work begins.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Bronx
We check the mechanical room, the rooftop, and any attics or basements for separate air handlers or rooftop units before we quote. In older Bronx multifamily buildings and single-family homes, it’s common to find two or three systems, each with its own duct runs. Our camera inspection confirms which systems exist and what each one needs. Call (980) 447-2498 and we’ll walk through what to look for over the phone, then confirm on site.
Because the Cross Bronx Expressway runs ground-level truck traffic through residential neighborhoods like Tremont and East Tremont, and the diesel particulate from that traffic finds its way into duct systems and settles as a greasy black residue on supply registers. The South Bronx, including Mott Haven and Hunts Point, has pediatric asthma hospitalization rates among the highest in the country. For residents of these neighborhoods, cleaning ductwork is a direct mitigation measure, not a luxury. We document what we remove with photos so you have a record of what was inside.
It means each air handler and its connected duct runs get quoted separately, so you see exactly what each system costs to clean. A three-story house near the Grand Concourse might have one system for the basement, one for the main floor, and one for the attic. The price is $350 – $650 per system, not a single flat fee that assumes one furnace. We identify every system before quoting, so there are no partial cleanings and no surprise line items later.
You should receive before-and-after photos of the inside of your ducts, a written record of which systems were cleaned, and a written guarantee covering any repairs performed. At Linden, every job includes photo documentation and a written report. Any duct repair also carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise, which means if the repair fails within a year, we return at no charge. If a company will not show you photos of the work, that is a red flag.
Yes. Shared systems in co-ops and larger apartment buildings require coordination with the building’s super or management company, and often involve vertical risers rather than single-unit horizontal runs. In Co-op City’s high-rises, for example, ductwork dates to the original construction and may never have been serviced. We coordinate directly with building management, camera-inspect the shared sections, and document everything so boards and tenants have a clear record. Call (980) 447-2498 to discuss your building’s specific layout.
