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 Richmond Heights, FL
Air duct cleaning in Richmond Heights, FL typically runs $320 – $540 for a standard single-system home, and most jobs wrap up in half a day. Richmond Heights homes deal with a specific mix of humidity, salt air, and older duct layouts that makes this work different from other South Florida communities. If you’re searching for an air duct cleaning company in Richmond Heights that gives you a written price before any work starts, call us at (737) 727-2314. Omar Haddad leads our Richmond Heights crews, and every job runs through The Relay Standard: a live trackable arrival, before-and-after photos, and a digital invoice.
Why Richmond Heights Homes Are Different
Richmond Heights sits just west of U.S. 1 in Miami-Dade, and the housing stock tells the story. Many homes here were built between the 1950s and 1970s, which means galvanized steel ductwork that has spent decades absorbing humidity. That combination creates a specific cleaning challenge: rust particulate that a standard brush pass won’t remove without a real HEPA extraction setup. We run Nikro HEPA vacuums paired with Rotobrush rotary brush systems because Richmond Heights ducts need the negative-pressure extraction that keeps loosened debris out of the living space.
The salt air off Biscayne Bay doesn’t help. Duct interiors here corrode faster than inland homes, especially in neighborhoods like the ones clustered around Lincoln Boulevard and along the southern edge of the community. And because Richmond Heights is a historically significant neighborhood, some properties have original return-air configurations that send us looking for secondary filters the homeowner may not know exist. We check all of it, because the price doesn’t change whether a job takes three hours or five.
Our Main Richmond Heights Services
Richmond Heights homeowners reach out to us mostly for two things: ducts that haven’t been cleaned in years, and dryer vents that are running hot. Here’s what each job looks like here.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Richmond Heights
Dryer vent runs in Richmond Heights tend to be short but poorly sealed, and that’s the problem. A vent that dumps lint into a wall cavity rather than outside is a fire hazard, and we see it often in older Richmond Heights construction. We clean the full run from dryer to exterior termination, remove the blockages, and show you before-and-after photos of the vent interior. If you’ve noticed the dryer taking longer to finish a load or the laundry room getting hotter than it should, this is the call to make. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Richmond Heights covers the full process and pricing.
Air Duct Cleaning in Richmond Heights
A standard Richmond Heights air duct cleaning means every register, return, and main trunk line gets brushed and extracted rather than vacuumed from one end. Salt air and decades of humidity mean we’re often cutting through a layer of dust that’s fused to the duct walls, which is exactly why a shop vac and a drill attachment doesn’t work here. Omar Haddad’s crews run the full Rotobrush and Nikro setup on every job, with containment from Abatement Technologies where needed, and you get a written price before the first panel comes off. Air Duct Cleaning in Richmond Heights has the full write-up.
HVAC Cleaning in Richmond Heights
HVAC cleaning is the bigger job: evaporator coil, blower motor, drain pan, and the full duct network. In Richmond Heights the coil is usually the worst of it, layered in the same humid dust that cakes the ducts. A dirty coil costs you cooling capacity and drives up the electric bill, especially through a South Florida summer. We clean the whole system so the air actually moves the way the unit was designed to, and if a repair is needed during the work, you get a written guarantee on it. HVAC Cleaning in Richmond Heights explains the full scope.

Brands We Service in Richmond Heights

That means most filtration fixes happen the same day rather than waiting on a parts order. See our brands for the full list.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning Company in Richmond Heights, FL
| Service | Typical range in Richmond Heights |
|---|---|
| Standard single-system air duct cleaning | $320 – $540 |
| HVAC full-system cleaning (coil, blower, ducts) | $450 – $780 |

What pushes a Richmond Heights job toward the top of these ranges is access: if the air handler sits in a tight attic or an original closet riser closet, we’re working slower and possibly cutting an additional access point. Whatever the number is, it’s the number on the written price you get before work begins. That price does not change at the door.
