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 Somerset, TX
Air duct cleaning in Somerset, TX costs between $390 and $1,090 for a whole-home job, depending on system size and how much agricultural dust has settled into the ductwork. We’re Linden Air Duct Cleaning, and we work differently in Somerset because the air here carries more than the typical South Texas dust: caliche from active ranch land, gypsum from 2000s-era subdivision construction, and mountain cedar pollen that triggers cedar fever every winter. Call (980) 447-2498 for an honest assessment of your system.
Why Somerset Homes Are Different
Somerset sits on the southern edge of Bexar County, surrounded by active agricultural and ranch land, and that location changes what ends up inside residential ductwork. Homes here pull in dramatically higher loads of caliche dust and field particulates than houses just 20 miles north in urbanized San Antonio. The soil itself is a factor: caliche is a calcium carbonate crust common in this region, and when wind moves across open pasture, it picks up fine mineral particles that settle into return-air grilles and work their way through the entire system.
The housing stock compounds the problem. Most homes in Somerset are slab-on-grade, single-family tract homes built during the 2000s and 2010s as the town became an affordable bedroom community for San Antonio workers. These houses typically have flex-duct systems running through unconditioned attics where summer temperatures climb past 140°F. That heat bakes whatever enters the ducts onto the inner liners. In many of those mid-2000s subdivisions off TX-16 and Applewhite Road, drywall finishing happened after ductwork was roughed in but before systems were sealed, leaving a fine gypsum dust coating that local technicians describe as a chalky crust inside the flex duct. Standard brush passes will not fully dislodge it.
There is also a secondary stock of older ranch-era farmhouses on larger rural lots, often with original metal ductwork that has accumulated decades of debris and may have developed gaps as foundations shifted on the expansive clay soils common to this area.
Our Main Somerset Services
Homeowners here call us most often about two things: cleaning ductwork that has never been cleaned since construction, and dryer vents that have become packed with lint in systems that run constantly. Each service has its own Somerset page with full pricing and details.
Air Duct Cleaning in Somerset
This is a negative-pressure extraction job: we connect a vacuum system to your ductwork, agitate the inner liner with professional tools, and pull the loosened debris out rather than pushing it into the house. In Somerset, the job almost always takes longer than a comparable home in a denser suburb because we’re removing years of caliche, gypsum dust, and cedar pollen that has baked onto flex-duct liners. The full breakdown is on the dedicated page: Air Duct Cleaning in Somerset.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Somerset
Dryer vents in Somerset run through hot attics and sometimes long horizontal stretches that make lint accumulate faster than the national average. We open the vent line at both ends, run a professional-grade Rotobrush through it, and confirm proper airflow with a digital gauge before we call the job done. The point is not just efficiency; a blocked dryer vent is a fire risk. Details: Dryer Vent Cleaning in Somerset.
Air Duct Repair in Somerset
Older farmhouses and even some 2000s tract homes develop loose connections, kinks, or outright holes in the duct runs, especially in unconditioned attics and under slab foundations where settlement occurs. We inspect, identify exactly where the system is leaking or pinched, seal or replace the affected section, and put the repair in writing with our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Full scope: Air Duct Repair in Somerset.

What pushes a Somerset quote toward the top of a range is system size and access difficulty, plus the condition of the ducts themselves. A heavily dust-caked flex-duct system in a 2,400-square-foot tract home takes more labor than an open ranch-style house. Whatever the number is, you see it in writing before any work starts, and it does not change at the door.

- 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."
