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 Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning Is Argyle’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been part of the Cedarwell family since 2005, and we’ve learned that Argyle’s newer homes present problems most duct cleaners miss entirely. The typical 4,500 square foot two-story in Harvest or along Liberty School Road has duct runs twice as long as older DFW homes, with multiple zones and returns positioned right where construction dust settled for months.
Argyle customers tell us the same thing repeatedly: the last crew wiped the registers and called it done. That’s not source removal. We use Rotobrush agitation tools and Nikro HEPA-filtered negative air machines to pull debris from the full length of those runs, not just the first few feet. Our 365-Day Done Right Promise means if something’s not right after we leave, we make it right.
Every technician is background-checked, arrives in uniform, and works to the Cedarwell C.A.R.E. values. Shoe covers and drop cloths are standard on every visit. We photograph the clean-up before we leave so you see exactly what we removed and how we left your home.

Ductwork Cleaning in Argyle
Ductwork Cleaning in Argyle means source removal from supply and return lines that are often 50-100 feet long, spanning two stories with multiple zone dampers, in homes where construction debris has been baking since the first summer of AC use. We don’t fog or spray. We physically agitate and extract.
A typical residential ductwork cleaning in Argyle runs $450-$750 for homes under 4,000 square feet, and $650-$950 for the larger estates common here. Commercial systems start around $800 and scale with access complexity. Every quote is written and agreed before work begins.
What We Clean in a Full System Service
We clean supply ducts, return ducts, trunk lines, branch lines, and the air handler cabinet. In Argyle’s multi-zone homes, that means accessing dampers, cleaning around zone controls, and verifying airflow balance after we’re done. We don’t skip the hard-to-reach runs because they’re hard to reach.
Construction Debris Removal
Drywall dust, red clay fines, wood particulate, and insulation fragments. That’s what we find in Argyle’s newer homes. The Rotobrush system scrubs these deposits loose while our Nikro vacuum pulls them out under negative pressure. HEPA filtration keeps your home’s air clean during the process.
Air Duct Inspection in Argyle
Air Duct Inspection in Argyle should happen before you buy, after you notice dust patterns changing, or when your HVAC technician mentions restricted airflow. We use video inspection equipment to show you exactly what’s inside your ducts, not guesswork or scare tactics.
A standalone video inspection in Argyle costs $150-$250, and we credit that toward your cleaning if you proceed. For homes over 5,000 square feet with complex multi-zone systems, expect the higher end due to access time and camera run length. We always give you the written price first.
When to Schedule an Inspection
New homeowners in Harvest or the FM 407 corridor should inspect within the first two years. Whistling returns, uneven temperatures between floors, or a fine gray film on furniture near vents all signal buildup. We check blower motor condition, filter fit, and duct integrity while we’re inside.
What the Camera Reveals
Our video system shows sediment depth, construction debris type, and any disconnected or damaged ductwork. In Argyle’s large homes, we often find that the longest runs, especially to second-floor master suites, carry the heaviest loads. You see it in real time. We explain what it means.
Trusted Brands We Service in Argyle
We clean systems with components from Aprilaire, Abatement Technologies, Guardsman, and Rotobrush, and we stock common parts for faster turnaround on Argyle jobs. Many of the multi-zone homes here use Honeywell or Aprilaire zone panels and dampers that need careful handling during cleaning. Our technicians know these systems. We’ve worked on the long duct runs in the rural-estate properties off Liberty School Road and the compacted multi-level systems in Harvest. The right equipment matters when you’re pulling red clay fines from 80 feet of flexible duct without damaging it.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Argyle Homes
- Construction debris baked into new systems. Builders in Argyle’s 2005-2023 buildout rarely cleaned ducts before occupancy. Drywall dust and red clay fines from adjacent grading sat in the returns through the first summer, then hardened onto blower wheels and coils.
- Long multi-zone runs with uneven loading. A 5,000 square foot two-story might have supply lines running 60 feet to a second-floor zone. The farthest runs accumulate the most debris because airflow velocity drops, and they’re the ones most often skipped by quick-clean outfits.
- Whistling returns and reduced airflow. In Harvest homes occupied during active construction, return intakes pulled fine particulate continuously. The filters clogged faster than standard change intervals, and bypassed debris loaded the blower motor until the system couldn’t move design airflow.
- Contractors who fog instead of remove. A register wipe and chemical fog leaves the actual sediment in place. In Argyle’s large homes, that means tons of debris still circulating, now with added coating residue. Source removal is the only method that actually empties the ducts.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Argyle, TX
Honest pricing means whole-system ranges, not per-vent teaser rates that balloon on the invoice. In Argyle’s market, residential duct cleaning runs $450-$850 for most homes, with the typical 4,000-5,500 square foot property falling in the $550-$750 range. Commercial systems and estates over 6,000 square feet start around $800 and scale with access points and zone count.
What affects your price: total linear feet of ductwork, number of zones and dampers, accessibility (crawl space vs. attic vs. basement), and whether we need to clean the air handler and blower assembly. We don’t charge per vent. One flat price per system, agreed in writing, before we start.
Every estimate is free. Call (323) 918-4345 and we’ll give you a range over the phone, then confirm with an on-site evaluation if the job is complex.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Argyle
Yes, very likely. Argyle’s phased buildout means many 2019 homes in Harvest and along FM 407 were occupied while adjacent lots were still being graded, and return intakes pulled red clay dust and drywall particulate for months. We regularly find blower motors caked in construction debris in homes less than five years old. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free video inspection and we’ll show you exactly what’s inside.
The builder should have performed source-removal duct cleaning after construction was complete and before occupancy, protected returns during final finishing, and verified filter fit and blower cleanliness at handover. Most did not. In Argyle’s market, we estimate fewer than one in ten new homes received proper duct cleaning from the builder. That’s why we see such heavy sediment loads in otherwise pristine properties.
The duct runs are longer, often 50-100 feet per zone, with multiple dampers and access points that all need attention. A 5,000 square foot home might have 200+ linear feet of ductwork versus 80-100 in a typical older DFW home. The equipment and time required scale accordingly, and partial cleaning is especially ineffective because debris simply redistributes from the untouched sections. We clean the full system or we don’t take the job.
Yes. Argyle’s hot, dry summers mean HVAC systems run hard for 8-9 months, pulling air through the returns continuously and baking any debris onto surfaces. The open grassland and active construction corridors around town keep airborne dust loads higher than in fully built-out suburbs like Flower Mound. Combine that with construction debris already in the system, and accumulation accelerates significantly.
We use Rotobrush brush-and-vacuum systems for agitation and debris removal, Nikro HEPA-filtered negative air machines for source extraction, and video inspection cameras for before-and-after verification. For Argyle’s long multi-zone runs, we sometimes deploy Abatement Technologies portable HEPA units to maintain negative pressure throughout the cleaning process. This is professional-grade equipment, not rental shop gear, and our technicians are trained on each system.
