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 Kirkland, WA
Air duct cleaning in Kirkland is a different job than it is ten miles inland. Most homes here were built between the late 1960s and mid-1990s on hilly, glacially carved terrain, which means ductwork runs through vented crawl spaces that stay damp for much of the year. Lake Washington sits right at the city’s edge and keeps ambient humidity persistently high, so mold and flex duct liner degradation show up in Kirkland systems far more often than in drier Eastside suburbs. We’re Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning, and we work in Kirkland every week. Call (323) 918-4345 for a written price before any work starts.
Why Kirkland Homes Are Different
Kirkland’s residential neighborhoods grew fast during the Eastside suburban boom. Kingsgate, Finn Hill, North Rose Hill, and Juanita are full of split-levels, tri-levels, and two-story colonials with forced-air systems that are now 30 to 50 years old. The terrain matters more than people expect. Because lots sit on sloped, glacially carved ground, builders used vented crawl space construction almost everywhere. That means supply and return ducts are frequently routed through unConditioned, damp crawl spaces instead of attics or interior chases where they’d stay dry.
Kirkland gets more than 150 rain days a year, and the lake adds a humidity load that inland suburbs like Redmond’s eastern edge don’t feel. The result: condensation forms on uninsulated or poorly insulated duct runs, and that moisture works into flex duct liner over time. On Kingsgate and Finn Hill jobs, we regularly see flex duct sections that have partially collapsed or pulled apart at sleeve joints after years of crawl space moisture and rodent activity. Homeowners don’t see it until we run a camera during the cleaning and find conditioned air has been dumping into the crawl space, sometimes for years. That’s the difference between a Kirkland duct cleaning and a generic one: we’re looking for what the climate and the construction did to the system, not just vacuuming out dust.
Our Main Kirkland Services
Kirkland homeowners call us most about two things: the ducts that move heated and cooled air through the house, and the dryer vent that carries moisture and lint out of it. Each service has its own Kirkland page with pricing and specifics.
Air Duct Cleaning in Kirkland
Most Kirkland duct systems we open up were installed when the house was built and haven’t been fully cleaned since. Split-levels in Kingsgate and Finn Hill tend to have long flex runs through vented crawl spaces, where damp air breaks down the liner and rodents sometimes make a home. We clean the full system with professional-grade Rotobrush equipment, inspect every section with a camera, and show you photos of what we found and what we left. Our Air Duct Cleaning in Kirkland page has the full breakdown, including flat whole-system pricing.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Kirkland
Dryer vents in older Kirkland homes often run longer than modern code allows, with bends that trap lint and moisture. In a climate with this much rain and lake humidity, that lint stays damp and compacts quickly. We clear the entire vent run from the dryer to the exterior termination, confirm proper airflow at the end, and protect the laundry-room floor with drop cloths while we work. See Dryer Vent Cleaning in Kirkland for pricing and what a typical job involves.

What Kirkland 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."
