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 Denton, TX
Air duct cleaning in Denton runs between $350 and $650 for a typical single-family home, and the job usually takes three to five hours. What makes Denton different from Flower Mound or Corinth is the housing itself: dozens of streets near UNT and TWU are packed with rental homes whose ducts haven’t been touched through years of student turnover, while the Blackland Prairie clay under older neighborhoods flexes with every wet-dry season and loosens duct connections throughout the system. If you’d like a written price for your specific house before anyone starts, call Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning at (323) 918-4345.
Why Denton Homes Are Different
Two forces shape almost every duct system we open in Denton, and they rarely show up together in any other North Texas city.
First is the university rental corridor. Streets like Fry, Oak, and Hickory near UNT are dense with converted single-family homes and aging duplexes where occupancy changes every 9 to 12 months. Landlords repaint and re-carpet between tenants, but duct cleaning gets deferred across five, six, sometimes seven consecutive student cycles. We regularly pull register covers off in those homes and find them painted shut from landlord touch-ups, with years of accumulated dust, pet dander, and cooking residue packed into flex duct that has never been professionally serviced.
Second is the soil. Denton sits on Blackland Prairie clay, which swells dramatically when wet and shrinks when dry. For slab-on-grade homes, that movement transfers up through the foundation and works loose the connections on flex duct runs. A duct system that was sealed tight when the house was built in 1995 can have gaps at the boot connections by 2010. Those gaps pull attic air and dust into the conditioned space and quietly waste conditioned air into the attic. We find this in every part of town, but it’s most pronounced in the 1980s and 1990s tract housing across southeast and east Denton, where the original flex duct is now 30 to 40 years old.
Denton’s climate adds a third layer. The city sits far enough north of the DFW core to catch more freezing-rain events than Irving or Grand Prairie, and those freeze-thaw cycles push condensation into poorly insulated duct runs. By spring, mountain cedar in January and oak and elm in March and April drive pollen straight into return systems. The result is a duct environment that gains moisture in winter, pollen in spring, and occupant turnover year-round near the campuses. It’s a specific combination, and it shapes how we clean every system here.
Our Main Denton Services
Most Denton homeowners call us for one of two jobs, and each has its own dedicated page with pricing and details specific to this city.
Air Duct Cleaning in Denton
Every air duct cleaning in Denton starts the same way: we open the return plenum and the supply registers, inspect the system with a camera, and show you what we found before we start the agitation and collection sequence. In Denton, that inspection routinely reveals the two local patterns we described above: painted-over registers in rental properties and separated flex duct connections on the prairie clay. We use Rotobrush and Nikro equipment for agitation and HEPA-filtered negative air for collection, and we seal every register we open before we move on to the next one. Floors get shoe covers and drop cloths from the first step.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Denton
Dryer vent cleaning in Denton is the job we recommend to anyone buying one of those older craftsman bungalows near the courthouse square, where long vent runs and tight laundry closets give lint every chance to settle and accumulate. We brush the full run from both ends and verify airflow with a meter before and after. In the university rental corridor we also find a specific pattern: tenants rarely clean the lint trap properly, and years of that, compounded across occupants, means some of those vents are carrying a fire load no one has ever warned the landlord about. We show you the before-and-after airflow readings so you can see the difference.

Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning Company in Denton, TX
| Service | Typical range in Denton |
|---|---|
| Single-family home duct cleaning (up to 10 vents) | $350-$500 |
| Larger home duct cleaning (11-16 vents) | $500-$650 |
| Rental home or smaller condo duct cleaning | $300-$400 |
| Dryer vent cleaning | $125-$250 |
| Return plenum cleaning and inspection | Included with duct cleaning |
| Register replacement (per register, if needed) | $25-$45 |
| Flex duct replacement (per run, when required) | $150-$300 |
| Duct sealing at boot connections (per boot) | $40-$75 |
Two things push the price toward the upper end of these ranges in Denton: the age of the flex duct itself and the condition of the boot connections beneath it. Homes in the 1980s and 1990s tracts in southeast and east Denton are the most likely to need run replacement or sealing work during a cleaning. Whatever the number ends up being, you’ll see it in writing before any work starts, and that same written price is the exact price on the invoice when we finish.

Most Denton jobs are scheduled within a few business days. The city’s rental corridor near UNT keeps our schedule full during turnover months in May and August, so if you’re calling around a lease cycle, earlier in the month is better.
No. Air duct and dryer vent cleaning is interior maintenance work and does not require a city permit or HOA approval anywhere in Denton. If your HOA has rules about service vehicles in the driveway, we arrive in a standard work van and typically finish in an afternoon.
