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 Miami, FL
Air duct cleaning in Miami typically costs $350 – $650 for a standard single-system home, and is usually completed in 3 – 5 hours. Miami’s salt air, year-round humidity, and high-rise construction make duct conditions here different from anywhere else in Florida. Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning handles all of it with one flat price per system, agreed in writing before a single vent is touched. Call (737) 727-2314 for a free estimate.
Why Miami Homes Are Different
Miami’s combination of ocean air and relentless humidity means ductwork collects a different kind of buildup than you’d see inland. Salt-laden air accelerates corrosion on older metal ducts, especially in condos along Brickell Avenue and buildings within a few blocks of Biscayne Bay. Meanwhile, that same humidity feeds microbial growth inside return plenums and flex duct runs that aren’t sealed tightly. In Coral Way and Shenandoah, homes built in the 1940s and 1950s often have original duct runs that have never been properly cleaned, and the mix of wet heat and decades of accumulated dust means a cleaning here involves more than just running a vacuum through the registers. Newer construction in areas like Edgewater and Wynwood uses a lot of flex duct, which sags over time and traps debris in the low points. High-rise buildings add another variable: riser access often requires coordination with building management, and in some buildings on Collins Avenue or Brickell, there are specific hours for equipment entry and service elevators. We’re used to navigating all of it.
Omar Haddad, our owner, has built the Miami operation around one principle: a duct cleaning should not be a guessing game. You should know the price, the arrival window, and exactly what was done afterward. That’s what the Relay Visibility Guarantee is built for, and it applies to every job we run in Miami.
Our Main Miami Services
Most Miami homeowners call us for one of two reasons: a dryer vent that’s taking longer to dry clothes, or an air duct system that’s been circulating dust and musty air through the house. Here’s what each job looks like in Miami, and each service has its own dedicated page with full pricing and details.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Miami
A dryer vent clogged with lint in a Miami condo or single-family home isn’t just an efficiency problem; it’s a fire hazard, and high humidity makes lint stickier and more likely to compact. We run a rotary brush through the full vent run and measure airflow before and after. Many Miami units, particularly in older buildings along Biscayne Boulevard, have vent runs of 20 – 40 feet with multiple bends, which is longer than the average dryer can handle on its own. Clothes that take two cycles to dry are usually the first sign. Learn more about Dryer Vent Cleaning in Miami.
Air Duct Cleaning in Miami
Miami’s air conditioning runs almost year-round, which means your ducts are constantly moving air. That same humidity can cause dust to adhere to the inside of duct walls, creating a film that brushing alone won’t remove. We use Rotobrush rotary brush systems coupled with Nikro HEPA-filtered negative-pressure vacuums, meaning loosened debris is pulled straight into a sealed unit rather than recirculated into your home. In homes near the water in Coconut Grove or Key Biscayne, we regularly see salt residue and fine sand inside supply ducts. Full details on Air Duct Cleaning in Miami.
HVAC Cleaning in Miami
The evaporator coil and blower wheel in a Miami air handler work overtime, and when they’re coated with grime, your system runs longer and cools less. HVAC cleaning means opening the air handler, cleaning the coil and blower assembly, and treating the main supply and return plenums. In a humid city like Miami, keeping the coil clean also helps prevent the musty odor that builds up inside air handlers. We use Abatement Technologies containment units on larger commercial-style residential systems to keep the work area sealed. Full details on HVAC Cleaning in Miami.

It often does. Humidity encourages microbial growth inside ducts and air handlers, so we frequently recommend an air handler sanitizing or coil cleaning alongside a standard duct cleaning in Miami.
