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 Duluth, WA
Air duct cleaning in Duluth, WA typically runs $350 – $650 for a full system on a two-story home, with most jobs completed in a single visit. What makes Duluth work different from the rest of the metro is the age and scale of the housing: thousands of large 1990s-era homes with long flex-duct runs that are now hitting the 20 – 30 year mark at the same time. If you’re calling around for duct work in Duluth, you’ll want specifics – so here they are, including exactly what our team sees in these houses. Call (980) 447-2498 any time for a straight answer and a written quote before any work begins.
Why Duluth Homes Are Different
Duluth’s subdivision boom between roughly 1992 and 2005 produced block after block of 3,000 to 5,000+ square foot two-story homes. Most went up fast, built by production builders working at volume, and the duct systems reflect that: builder-grade flexible duct, duct board plenums, and long runs that stretch across multi-story layouts. Twenty to thirty years later, those materials are failing in predictable ways. We regularly find flex duct that has sagged at mid-span, creating low pockets where condensation collects through Gwinnett County’s humid summers. Those pockets are where microbial growth starts, and a homeowner peering into a supply register will never see it.
The Georgia Piedmont climate does the rest. Duluth summers push indoor humidity high enough that poorly sealed or under-conditioned duct systems stay damp for weeks. Duct board interior liners – common in this housing era – absorb that moisture and become a substrate for mold and mildew. When we pull a section of duct board from a Duluth home built in 1997 or 2003, the interior liner often tells the story before the camera does. This is not a scare tactic, just what two decades of humidity does to fiberglass-lined duct board in this specific climate.
Our Main Duluth Services
Most Duluth homeowners call us for one of three jobs. Each has its own page with local pricing and detail.
Air Duct Cleaning in Duluth
Full-system air duct cleaning in Duluth means negative-pressure extraction through every supply and return run, including the long flex runs typical of 1990s two-story homes. We cut access points where needed, camera-inspect the trunk lines, and document what comes out. In Duluth specifically, we spend extra time on mid-span sag points in flex duct – the low spots where condensation and debris collect over years and where the heaviest buildup hides. If your home was built between 1992 and 2005 and the ducts have never been opened, expect more than dust. Air Duct Cleaning in Duluth covers full pricing, what’s included, and what the camera typically shows in this housing stock.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Duluth
Dryer vent cleaning in Duluth is a different job than duct cleaning, and it matters more in these houses than in many others. Long vent runs – common when laundry rooms sit on the second floor of a 3,500+ square foot home – mean more interior surface for lint to accumulate. We clean the full run from dryer to exterior termination, remove blockages, and check airflow at both ends. Duluth’s humid summers do not cause the lint buildup, but they do make a restricted vent run hotter and slower, which pushes dryers harder. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Duluth explains pricing, run lengths, and what a typical Duluth vent looks like after a decade.
Air Duct Repair in Duluth
Duluth’s 1990s flex-duct systems fail in patterns we can spot from the driveway. Sagged runs, crushed sections where a tradesperson stepped, disconnected collars, and duct tape that gave up years ago. Air duct repair in Duluth most often means re-supporting sagging flex, resealing joints, replacing crushed or torn sections, and patching duct board where the liner has degraded. Every repair we quote in Duluth comes with a written price before work starts and a written 365-day guarantee. If a covered repair fails, we return at no charge. Air Duct Repair in Duluth details the full guarantee and the most common repair types in this housing stock.

What pushes a Duluth quote higher is almost always the same thing: the home’s size and the condition of 1990s flex duct. A 5,000 square foot two-story house has more linear feet of duct, more registers, and more sag points than a ranch. That said, every Duluth job gets one flat system price in writing before work begins – no per-vent pricing, no surprise invoice at the end.

What Duluth Customers Say
"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."
- Meredith L."Tech arrived with a badge and a printed sheet of what he'd be doing. Ran a camera through the main trunk before and after so I could see the dust difference. Vents smell cleaner already."
- Gina R."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.
