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 West Lealman, FL
Air duct cleaning in West Lealman typically runs $425 – $700 for a standard single-family home, and most jobs are completed in four to six hours with no disruption to your day. West Lealman homes face a specific set of conditions: flat terrain, older ductwork, and salty Gulf air that keeps dust and debris cycling through systems year-round. We’re Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Relay Home Co. family, and we serve West Lealman with written pricing before any work starts. Call (737) 727-2314 for a free estimate.
Why West Lealman Homes Are Different
West Lealman sits on low, flat ground just north of St. Petersburg, and that topography shapes how duct systems behave here. Humidity is the constant. When warm, moist air meets air-conditioned duct interiors, condensation forms and turns ordinary household dust into a paste that clings to duct walls. Homes here that run AC more than eight months a year simply accumulate more than a comparable house inland. We see it on nearly every West Lealman job we open up.
The housing stock adds another layer. Much of West Lealman was built between the 1950s and 1980s, which means original or early-renovation ductwork in many homes. Galvanized steel ducts from that era rust at the seams in this climate, and flex duct installed during 1980s and 1990s additions often sags or separates. Neither condition gets better with time. Flat terrain also means drainage is slower after storms, so crawlspace moisture and under-home humidity feed directly into whatever the return side pulls through. These are the conditions that make West Lealman jobs different from duct work in drier inland parts of Florida.
Our Main West Lealman Services
Most West Lealman homeowners reach out for two things: dryer vents that have become fire hazards and whole-system duct cleaning driven by dust, odor, or allergy concerns. We offer three core services, each with its own dedicated West Lealman page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in West Lealman
Lint builds up faster here than you would expect, especially in older West Lealman homes where dryer vents run long horizontal distances to exterior walls. The longer the run, the more lint settles in the middle before it ever reaches the outside vent cap. We run rotating brush systems through the full vent line and use a HEPA vacuum to collect everything we dislodge. A blocked vent is a fire hazard first and an efficiency problem second. Dryer Vent Cleaning in West Lealman covers the full process, typical West Lealman pricing, and what we find in this area’s vent runs.
Air Duct Cleaning in West Lealman
Whole-system duct cleaning is the most requested service here. We connect a negative-pressure HEPA vacuum to the duct system, then work through each supply and return run with a Rotobrush rotary brush. What that means for you: debris is pulled straight into the vacuum, never pushed back into your living room. West Lealman homes with pets, recent renovation dust, or systems that have never been cleaned typically show the biggest improvement. See Air Duct Cleaning in West Lealman for full pricing, the cleaning process, and what we inspect.
HVAC Cleaning in West Lealman
Because West Lealman AC systems run nearly year-round, the blower wheel, evaporator coil, and condensate pan take on buildup that reduces airflow and cooling performance. We remove and clean these components, inspect the drain line, and treat any microbial growth we find with appropriate products. This is different from duct cleaning: it targets the equipment inside the air handler, not the duct runs themselves. HVAC Cleaning in West Lealman walks through where buildup hides and what cleaning the coil and blower actually involves.
