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 Scituate, MA
Air duct cleaning in Scituate usually runs between $450 and $900 for a whole-home system, with dryer vent cleaning adding $125 to $225. What makes Scituate jobs different from inland South Shore towns is the salt-air corrosion and the recurring flood cycle that pushes sand, sediment, and mold into ductwork that was retrofitted into spaces never built for it. Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning provides written pricing before any work starts, so you know the full cost before our crew walks through the door. Call (323) 918-4345 to talk through your home.
Why Scituate Homes Are Different
Scituate is one of the most repeatedly flood-damaged coastal towns on the South Shore. Neighborhoods like Minot, Egypt Beach, and the Humarock barrier beach peninsula get hit by nor’easter storm surge multiple times per decade. When floodwater enters homes through crawl spaces and floor registers, it contaminates ductwork with salt water, sediment, and mold. Because these flooding events recur, duct cleaning in Scituate isn’t a one-time remediation. It’s an ongoing coastal maintenance need.
The housing stock compounds the problem. Many Scituate homes are former summer cottages and older Capes and Colonials converted to year-round living. Their forced-air systems were retrofitted into crawl spaces and tight cavities never engineered for ductwork. These improvised runs sit close to grade level in salt-air-saturated crawl spaces, where moisture intrusion and corrosion happen faster than in inland towns. Our technicians working the Humarock peninsula routinely find beach sand and active mold inside floor-register duct boots, even in homes that flooded two or three seasons prior, because the crawl-space environment never fully dries out between storm seasons.
Our Main Scituate Services
Scituate homeowners call us most about two jobs: cleaning the air ducts that carry heated and cooled air through the house, and clearing dryer vents that clog with lint and, near the beach, fine sand. Each service has its own Scituate page with full pricing and detail.
Air Duct Cleaning in Scituate
We connect a Rotobrush or Nikro negative-air system to your ductwork and agitate every interior surface to pull out accumulated dust, pet hair, sand, and salt-air residue. In Scituate we pay particular attention to floor registers and duct boots, where storm surge deposits sediment and where mold takes hold first. We protect your floors with shoe covers and drop cloths from the moment we walk in, and we work around nap schedules with quieter tools where we can. Full detail is on the Air Duct Cleaning in Scituate page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Scituate
Dryer vents in Scituate clog with lint, but coastal homes also pick up fine beach sand that settles in the vent run and traps moisture from the humid Atlantic air. We clean the full run from the dryer to the exterior cap using professional Nikro equipment, then check airflow and the cap itself, which corrodes quickly in salt air. It’s an hour or so of work that protects against dryer fires and longer dry cycles. Pricing and specifics are on the Dryer Vent Cleaning in Scituate page.

What Scituate Customers Say
"New house, old dusty ducts. They were gentle in the house, laid down drop cloths, and double checked every register was sealed back up. Air smells fresh now."
- Scott Hemmings"Friendly, calm crew that clearly cared about the house. Covered their shoes, protected the floors, and double checked they'd closed up every vent cover properly. Would have them back."
- Omar Zaid"Ducts and dryer vent both. They put runners down the whole hall and wore booties. Spotless after, and they showed me photos of what came out. Worth every penny."
