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 Carrollton, TX
Air duct cleaning in Carrollton, TX typically runs $285 – $520 for a standard single-system home, and most jobs are completed in 3 – 5 hours. What makes Carrollton work different is the housing mix: postwar ranch homes with decades-old sheet metal ducts sitting alongside 1990s – 2010s subdivisions where the builder-grade flex duct is now hitting the end of its service life. Those two housing generations respond to cleaning very differently. Call (737) 727-2314 and Omar’s team will give you a written price before any work starts.
Why Carrollton Homes Are Different
Carrollton sits on the border of Dallas and Denton counties, and its housing stock splits almost cleanly in two. The older neighborhoods east of I-35E – think areas around E. Belt Line Rd and the original downtown grid – tend to have rigid metal ductwork in ranch and split-level homes from the 1960s and 1970s. That ductwork is sturdy but rarely sealed well, so it pulls attic air into the living space for forty years straight. The homes in Carrollton’s northern and western sections, built during the 1990s and 2000s expansion, are more likely to have flex duct. Flex duct sags over time, and when it sags, dust settles into the low spots and stays there.
The other major factor is the Texas heat cycle. Carrollton sees long summers where the AC runs for hours daily, and the ductwork is typically routed through unconditioned attics that bake. That repeated thermal cycling dries out dust into a fine, airy particulate that circulates more readily through the house. It also means buildup forms faster than in cooler climates where the system idles for months at a time.
Our Main Carrollton Services
Carrollton homeowners call us most about three jobs: dryer vent cleaning, full air duct cleaning, and HVAC coil and blower cleaning. Each has its own dedicated Carrollton page with local pricing and what to expect.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Carrollton
Lint accumulation in dryer vents is exaggerated in Carrollton because so many laundry rooms sit against exterior walls on two-story homes, creating long vertical vent runs that trap lint at every bend. A clogged vent means longer dry times, and in the worst cases, a fire hazard. We run HEPA-rated Nikro vacuums and rotary brushes through the entire run, not just the first few feet, and we photograph the results before and after. Get details on Dryer Vent Cleaning in Carrollton.
Air Duct Cleaning in Carrollton
Full duct cleaning is the heavy job: we cut access into the supply and return plenums, run a Rotobrush rotary brush through every run, and connect a Nikro negative-pressure vacuum so loosened debris goes straight into the collection canister rather than back into your living room. Negative-pressure extraction is the difference between a real cleaning and a dust-redistribution exercise. Most Carrollton homes take 3 – 5 hours from setup to final photos. See pricing and process on the Air Duct Cleaning in Carrollton page.
HVAC Cleaning in Carrollton
This job focuses on the equipment itself: the evaporator coil, blower wheel, housing, and drain pan. In Carrollton, where the AC is the hardest-working appliance in the house for six months a year, evaporator coils collect a film of dirt that reduces airflow and drives energy bills up. We remove the blower, clean the wheel and housing, and access the coil without pulling the entire plenum apart when possible. Full specifics are on the HVAC Cleaning in Carrollton page.
