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 Coral Gables, FL
Air duct cleaning in Coral Gables means working inside some of South Florida’s most distinctive homes, from 1920s Mediterranean Revival estates to mid-century ranch layouts and newer custom builds. The combination of year-round air conditioning, high humidity, and mature landscaping means Coral Gables ductwork collects dust, mold spores, and fine debris faster than drier climate homes. We’re Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Relay Home Co. family, and every Coral Gables job starts with a written price before any work begins. Call (737) 727-2314 for a free estimate.
Why Coral Gables Homes Are Different
Coral Gables isn’t a cookie-cutter suburb. The Biltmore area, the Granada Golf Course corridor, and the streets around the Venetian Pool hold some of the oldest HVAC systems in Miami-Dade, many with original duct runs that were never designed for today’s high-efficiency units. Add in salt-laced coastal air from Biscayne Bay and you get a specific problem: corrosion on metal duct interiors and accelerated buildup of fine particulate that recirculates through older registers. Homes in the French City Village and Snapper Creek estates often run air conditioning 10 to 11 months a year, which pushes more air volume through the same ducts and leaves more dust embedded in the return side than a seasonal northern system would show. Narrow attic access in many 1940s and 1950s Coral Gables homes also means the job rarely fits one-size-fits-all equipment packages. Technicians working in Coral Gables need gear that maneuvers through tight ceiling clearances without cutting into lath-and-plaster walls, which is why our crews carry compact Nikro HEPA extraction units rather than bulky truck-mounted hoses that never make it up a Gables stairwell.
Our Main Coral Gables Services
Coral Gables homeowners call us most often for two situations: dryer vents that have gone years without cleaning and whole-home duct systems that need professional extraction. Each service below has its own Coral Gables page with pricing, process, and local details.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Coral Gables
Lint-clogged dryer vents are common in Coral Gables laundry rooms, especially where the dryer sits on an exterior wall facing a courtyard or patio. Short horizontal runs with multiple elbows trap lint fast, and older Gables homes often route the vent through terrazzo-floor utility rooms where access is awkward. We use Rotobrush rotary brush systems to break the lint free, then negative-pressure extraction means the loosened debris goes straight into the vacuum, not back into your laundry room. Lint fires are a real risk, and in compact Coral Gables neighborhoods where homes sit close together, a blocked vent affects more than just your own efficiency. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Coral Gables covers the full scope and local pricing.
Air Duct Cleaning in Coral Gables
Whole-home duct cleaning in Coral Gables typically runs $375 to $950 for a standard single system, depending on square footage, the number of returns, and how long it’s been since the last cleaning. Older homes near the Country Club Prado or along Hardee Road often have decades of layered dust, pet dander, and construction debris from past renovations sitting in the ducts. That’s the exact material your AC blower keeps putting back into the air. Go to Air Duct Cleaning in Coral Gables for the complete breakdown, including what equipment makes the difference in Gables attics.
HVAC Cleaning in Coral Gables
HVAC cleaning goes beyond the ducts. The evaporator coil, blower wheel, and drain pan inside your air handler collect grime that cuts airflow and raises humidity inside the home, which matters year-round in Coral Gables. Aprilaire and Honeywell filtration components also build residue that standard duct-only cleaning never reaches. This service keeps a Gables system running efficiently during the long cooling season. See HVAC Cleaning in Coral Gables for the full process and current pricing.

Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning Company in Coral Gables, FL
| Service | Typical range in Coral Gables |
|---|---|
| Air duct cleaning, single system | $375 – $950 |
| HVAC cleaning | $450 – $1,200 |
| Dryer vent cleaning | $145 – $275 |
Those ranges reflect Coral Gables reality, not a teaser. Older attics with low clearance, long duct runs through multiple returns, and heavy buildup from renovations can push a system toward the higher end of a range. What doesn’t shift at the door is the price itself. You get a written quote before work starts, and that number holds.
