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.

Why Moraga Homes Are Different
Moraga sits in a valley surrounded by oak-dotted hills, which means two things for your ducts: heavy tree pollen in spring and fine dust blown in from the Lamorinda hills in the dry months. Homes here skew mid-century ranch and two-story builds from the 1960s through the 1990s, many with original duct runs that have never been opened. When we clean a Moraga home, we’re often the first crew to touch those ducts since construction. That’s why we carry Nikro HEPA vacuums and Rotobrush systems – older ductwork needs more than a quick vacuum pass.
The other Moraga-specific factor is geography. The drive up Camino Pablo or Moraga Way adds time, but our scheduling is built around it. You’ll get a live trackable arrival window through The Relay Standard, so you know exactly when we’re pulling up, no four-hour waiting blocks. And because Moraga neighborhoods like Sanders Ranch and Campolindo tend to be quiet and spread out, we’re used to working around nap schedules, remote work calls, and HOA landscaping crews.
Our Main Moraga Services
Most Moraga homeowners call us about two things: dryer vents that have become fire hazards and air ducts loaded with dust from years of valley living. Each service has its own Moraga page with full details and pricing, but here’s the quick version.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Moraga
Dryer vents in Moraga clog faster than homeowners expect, especially in older homes where vents run long horizontal distances from laundry rooms to exterior walls. Add Moraga’s dry summer dust and you get lint buildup that reduces airflow and raises fire risk. We run professional-grade equipment through the full vent run, remove the compacted lint, and confirm clear airflow before we leave. Full details and pricing are on the Dryer Vent Cleaning in Moraga page.
Air Duct Cleaning in Moraga
Duct cleaning in Moraga means opening supply and return registers, loosening caked-on dust and pollen with a Rotobrush, and extracting it with a Nikro HEPA vacuum using negative-pressure extraction – that means the loosened debris goes straight into the vacuum, not back into your living room. Most jobs take three to five hours for a typical home. For a full breakdown of what’s included and what affects the price, see the Air Duct Cleaning in Moraga page.
HVAC Cleaning in Moraga
HVAC cleaning goes beyond the ducts to the system that moves air through them – coils, blower motor, drain pan, and plenum. In Moraga, where air conditioning runs hard from June through September, dirty coils reduce efficiency and drive your cooling bill up. We clean the entire airflow path and check for mold in the drain pan. That full-system approach is covered on the HVAC Cleaning in Moraga page.
