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 Brookhaven, PA
Air duct cleaning in Brookhaven costs between $320 and $680 for a whole-home system, and most jobs take four to six hours. The price depends on how many trunk lines and flex runs your house has, and how much of Brookhaven’s renovation dust has settled inside them. If you’re calling after a flip or a remodel, expect the higher end. You can reach us at (980) 447-2498 any time, and a live person will answer.

This page gives you the Brookhaven overview: what makes the work different here, what it costs, and which neighborhoods we cover.
Why Brookhaven Homes Are Different
Brookhaven is one of DeKalb County’s most active residential redevelopment markets. Mid-century ranch homes in neighborhoods like Ashford Park and Drew Valley are constantly being gut-renovated or torn down and rebuilt. Contractors routinely leave HVAC systems running during remodels, packing return plenums and flex duct runs with drywall dust, insulation fibers, and construction particulate. Post-renovation duct contamination is a defining service need here, far more concentrated than in neighboring, more stable suburbs like Dunwoody or Chamblee.
The housing stock itself compounds the problem. Brookhaven’s core homes date largely from the 1950s through the 1970s, many with original or piecemeal-replaced ductwork running through unconditioned crawl spaces. Georgia’s humid summers push moisture into those crawl-space runs, and Brookhaven’s dense canopy of mature hardwoods adds a heavy spring pollen load that settles inside return air systems. The result is a mix of aging trunk lines and newer flex branches, often with inconsistent sealing. We regularly pull return-filter boxes packed solid with fine drywall compound dust that has calcified onto the interior metal, a direct signature of flips where the HVAC ran unprotected through months of demolition and sheetrock work.
Our Main Brookhaven Services
Most Brookhaven homeowners call us for one of three reasons: full air duct cleaning, dryer vent cleaning, or a duct repair. Here’s what each involves.
Air Duct Cleaning in Brookhaven
We connect professional-grade negative-pressure extraction equipment to your system and work through every return and supply run. In Brookhaven renovation-zone homes, that often means clearing calcified drywall dust and insulation fibers that have adhered to duct walls. The job typically takes four to six hours, and we walk you through before-and-after photos of your own ducts. Full details on process, timing, and what the job covers are on Air Duct Cleaning in Brookhaven.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Brookhaven
Dryer vents in Brookhaven’s older ranches are often long runs with elbows, and lint builds up fast in humid air. We clean the full vent path from the dryer to the exterior termination point, and clear the lint trap bypass where clogs usually start. It’s a focused job, usually done in under two hours. See Dryer Vent Cleaning in Brookhaven for pricing and what to expect.
Air Duct Repair in Brookhaven
Renovation work and crawl-space moisture both take a toll on ductwork. We repair or replace damaged sections, seal leaking joints, and re-support sagging runs. Every repair comes with a written guarantee and a free second visit if the repair doesn’t hold. The full scope of repair work in Brookhaven is on Air Duct Repair in Brookhaven.

Renovation dust and crawl-space moisture push Brookhaven jobs toward the upper half of these ranges. Calcified drywall compound takes longer to extract than ordinary household dust, and older systems often need sealing work beyond the cleaning itself. Whatever the number turns out to be, you get a written price before any work begins, every single time.

No. Duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning are interior maintenance work and don’t require permits anywhere in DeKalb County. Some HOAs ask homeowners to notify them when a service vehicle will be on the street, but that’s between you and your association. Repairs are also interior work, no permit needed for standard section replacement or sealing.
If the previous owner ran the HVAC during construction, expect heavy dust loads. Drywall compound dust settles into return plenums and calcifies on duct walls, and standard household dust extraction won’t get it. We recommend a full inspection of the return side and trunk lines. Call (980) 447-2498 and we’ll schedule a look before you commit to anything.
If you’re ready for a real quote, call (980) 447-2498 and speak with a live person. We’ll give you a written price before any work starts, and the technician who arrives will be the same person whose name and photo we sent you. That’s how it works on every Brookhaven job.
