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 Lehigh Acres, FL
Air duct cleaning in Lehigh Acres, FL typically ranges from $320 to $540 for a full single-system home, depending on home size, system accessibility, and how long the ducts have gone without service. Lehigh Acres jobs are different from coastal Southwest Florida work for one big reason: thousands of homes here sat vacant during the foreclosure crisis, and their duct systems have never been professionally touched since. If your home was built before 2010, there’s a strong chance the previous owners never cleaned the ducts even once. Call (980) 447-2498 to get a written, flat price before any work begins.
Why Lehigh Acres Homes Are Different
Lehigh Acres was the national epicenter of the foreclosure crisis. At its peak, roughly one in every four homes in this city was in foreclosure, and thousands sat vacant for years without air conditioning running. In Southwest Florida’s inland humidity, a vacant home without climate control becomes a mold and pest incubator. The contamination doesn’t just settle on surfaces; it gets pulled into the return side and lives inside the ductwork. A large share of Lehigh Acres homes have never had ducts professionally cleaned since those vacancy years. This isn’t a problem that coastal communities face to the same degree, and it’s why we believe remediation work here is closer to a necessity than a luxury.
The housing stock compounds the issue. Most Lehigh Acres homes are concrete block and stucco ranch builds from the 1960s through 1990s land boom, with original-or-older flex duct systems now 30 to 50 years old. Added to that is the wave of 2000s speculative construction, where ductwork went in fast and has run without filtration upgrades since. Lehigh Acres sits inland in Lee County without the moderating sea breezes of coastal Fort Myers, so it’s measurably hotter and more humid. AC systems run nearly year-round, and condensation inside aging flex ducts accelerates mold growth at a rate that surprises even technicians who work coastal Florida regularly. We see collapsed duct liner, pinched flex runs, and rodent debris pulled into returns on a regular basis here.
Our Main Lehigh Acres Services
The two calls we get most from Lehigh Acres homeowners are for whole-system air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning, with repair work close behind. Each service has its own dedicated Lehigh Acres page linked below.
Air Duct Cleaning in Lehigh Acres
Whole-system cleaning in Lehigh Acres means pulling years of accumulated dust, pet dander, construction debris, and often mold from inside the supply and return sides. We run negative-pressure extraction with agitation tools from Rotobrush, and on homes that sat vacant during the foreclosure years, we routinely fill multiple collection bags before the system runs clean. Many homeowners tell us the difference in airflow and odor is noticeable within the first day. See the full breakdown on our Air Duct Cleaning in Lehigh Acres page, including what we do when we find pest debris.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lehigh Acres
Dryer vents in Lehigh Acres clog faster than homeowners expect because the inland humidity keeps lint damp and sticky inside the run. Longer vent runs, which are common in ranch homes where the laundry sits away from an exterior wall, add resistance. We clean from the dryer connection to the exterior termination and check for bird or rodent screens that may be blocked. One local condition worth noting: many 1960s and 1970s homes here still have their original flexible foil dryer transition, which traps lint at every bend. Details are on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lehigh Acres page.
Air Duct Repair in Lehigh Acres
Older flex duct in Lehigh Acres splits, sags, and separates at the plenum connections, especially in attics that hit 130+ degrees in summer. We repair or replace sections of flex duct, reseal joints, and re-insulate runs where the outer liner has torn. What we often find in flipped homes is duct sections packed with rat nesting material or black mold that the contractor painted around and never addressed. Repair work gets a written guarantee, and if a covered repair doesn’t hold, we return at no charge. The full scope is on our Air Duct Repair in Lehigh Acres page.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Lehigh Acres
Most Lehigh Acres jobs are scheduled within one to two business days of your call. We schedule by appointment rather than promising same-day service, which keeps the work honest and unhurried. Call (980) 447-2498 and we’ll give you a specific date and time before you hang up.
No, duct cleaning and most duct repair work in Lehigh Acres does not require a building permit, and no Lee County HOA we’ve worked with requires approval for interior mechanical work. The exception is exterior dryer vent re-routing that changes the exterior wall penetration, which may need a permit. We’ll tell you upfront if your job crosses that line.
If your Lehigh Acres home sat empty for a year or more without climate control, we recommend a full system cleaning before you invest in any indoor air quality equipment. The ductwork in those homes often holds mold, pest debris, and collapsed insulation that no filter upgrade will fix. We’ll show you before-and-after photos of your own ducts so you know exactly what came out.

- 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."
