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.

AfterFast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Miami
Air duct cleaning in Miami typically runs $350-$650 for a whole-home system, with most jobs completed in a single morning or afternoon. If you’re calling from Coral Way, Wynwood, or down toward Pinecrest, our dispatch team coordinates scheduling from our Miami office and usually books within a few days, not weeks. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free estimate with a written price before any work starts.
We’ve been working in Miami’s homes long enough to know the difference between a dust job and a mold job. With 10-11 months of near-constant AC runtime, Miami’s flex duct runs through 140°F attics collect condensation inside the inner liner, so almost every air duct cleaning call here is a mold or microbial growth job rather than a dust job, and antimicrobial treatment is a standard line item rather than an upsell. That’s not an upsell pitch. It’s what we find when we open the registers in a 1968 CBS block home in West Little Havana and the original 3-inch duct collar is set directly into the slab.
Our crews serve Miami locally, and we know the housing stock: post-WWII concrete block slab-on-grade homes from the 1950s-1980s, retrofitted with central AC through brutally hot attics where vapor barriers degrade and condensation pools inside the duct lining. We also handle the high-rise condo stock in Brickell, Edgewater, and Sunny Isles, where shared air handler rooms and building management gatekeeping require a different approach entirely. Air Duct Cleaning in Miami is what we do.
Why Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning Is Miami’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Mortons Air Duct Cleaning has been part of the Cedarwell family since 2005, and our reputation in Miami-Dade County is built on showing up, writing the price down before we touch anything, and leaving a photo of the clean-up before we go. Paul Adeyemi leads our operations, and every technician is background-checked, uniformed, and trained to the Cedarwell C.A.R.E. values: shoe covers and drop cloths from the moment we walk in, quiet tools during nap hours, pet-safe product choices where available.
Our Miami customers mention the same things in their feedback: the written price upfront, the photo proof of the clean-up, the fact that we don’t rush. We don’t track star ratings or review counts here because that’s not the point. The point is that families with kids and pets call us back because we notice the dog on the floor and the toddler napping down the hall, and we act accordingly.
Calls are answered by a live person, 24/7. Not a voicemail, not a chatbot. If you’re in Hialeah, Coral Gables, or Miami Beach and need to schedule around a building manager’s hours, that matters.
Air Duct Repair in Miami
Air Duct Repair in Miami is rarely about replacing an entire run. In the older CBS neighborhoods of Hialeah, West Little Havana, and unincorporated Miami-Dade, the original 1960s-70s duct boots are sealed directly into the concrete slab or embedded in interior walls, making full duct replacement nearly impossible. The real work is sealing what’s there, reconnecting crushed flex runs, and addressing the condensation damage that caused the failure in the first place.
A typical air duct repair in Miami runs $200-$450 for sealing and minor reconnections, or $500-$900 if we need to replace accessible flex duct sections and treat microbial growth in the remaining liner. We always camera-inspect first, because quoting replacement on a slab-embedded boot is a waste of everyone’s time.
Slab-Embedded Boot Sealing
When the duct boot is cast into the concrete slab, we can’t pull it. We seal the connection between boot and flex run, verify airflow with a static pressure test, and document the repair with before-and-after photos. This is the standard fix in Miami’s 1950s-1980s CBS stock, and it works.
Attic Flex Run Replacement
Where the flex duct is accessible in the attic, we replace collapsed or torn sections with new insulated flex, sealed at every joint. Attic temperatures in Miami routinely exceed 140°F, so we use product rated for that environment, not the entry-level stuff.
Ductwork Cleaning in Miami
Ductwork Cleaning in Miami is a mold-first service. The massive high-rise condo stock in Brickell, Edgewater, and Sunny Isles adds a second distinct job type – shared air handler rooms, building management gatekeeping, and fan-coil unit duct systems that require coordination with HOAs. But the majority of our calls are from homeowners in the older CBS neighborhoods, where decades of condensation have turned duct liners into active microbial environments.
A whole-home ductwork cleaning in Miami typically costs $350-$650, with antimicrobial treatment adding $150-$300 depending on system size. Condo fan-coil cleanings in Brickell or Sunny Isles run $250-$450 per unit, but building access and HOA coordination can affect scheduling.
Whole-Home Negative Pressure Cleaning
We agitate the duct walls with Rotobrush or Nikro tools under continuous negative pressure, capturing loosened debris at the vacuum source rather than pushing it through your house. HEPA filtration at the air handler prevents cross-contamination between supply and return sides. This matters in Miami, where mold spores are already airborne half the year.
Condo Fan-Coil Systems
High-rise units in Brickell and Edgewater use fan-coil systems with short duct runs and shared air handlers. We coordinate with building management for air handler access, clean the individual unit ducts and coils, and provide documentation for HOA records. The work is quieter and faster, but the coordination takes longer.
Trusted Brands We Service in Miami
We clean and service systems running Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Abatement Technologies components, and we stock common filters and media locally for faster turnaround. Our equipment fleet includes Rotobrush and Nikro agitation and vacuum systems, not rental-grade gear, and we carry Guardsman antimicrobial treatments formulated for the microbial loads we actually see in Miami attics. When we find a failed Honeywell electronic air cleaner or an Aprilaire media cabinet that’s been bypassed for years, we can quote replacement with the same brand or upgrade to a compatible unit, and we know which building supply houses in Miami-Dade stock what we need.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Miami Homes
- Condensation-saturated flex duct liners in 140°F attics. Miami’s wet season keeps outdoor humidity above 80% for months; when AC cycles off, warm humid air enters the duct and condenses on cooled metal, feeding mold colonies year-round. The inner liner delaminates, trapping organic debris in micro-tears.
- Crushed or disconnected slab-embedded boots in 1960s-70s CBS homes. The original duct collar was set directly into the concrete with no provision for future access, so decades of settling and thermal cycling crush the flex connection. Full replacement is impossible; sealing and repeated cleaning every 2-3 years is the real fix.
- Bypassed or missing air filtration. We regularly find original Honeywell or Aprilaire media cabinets with filters that haven’t been changed in years, or homeowners who removed the restrictive filter to “improve airflow.” Unfiltered air in Miami draws pollen, mold spores, and insect debris directly into the blower and ductwork.
- High-rise fan-coil units with clogged condensate drains. In Brickell and Sunny Isles condos, the fan-coil’s condensate pan and drain line clog with algae and biofilm, backing water into the duct plenum. The fix is coil and pan cleaning plus drain treatment, not just duct vacuuming.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Miami, FL
A typical residential duct cleaning in Miami runs $350-$650 for a whole-home system, depending on the number of air handlers, the accessibility of the duct runs, and whether we find active microbial growth requiring antimicrobial treatment. Condo fan-coil cleanings in high-rise buildings run $250-$450 per unit. Antimicrobial treatment, which we recommend on nearly every Miami job due to condensation issues, adds $150-$300. Dryer vent cleaning, which we often bundle, runs $120-$200.
We don’t quote per-vent pricing. We quote one flat price per system, agreed in writing before we start. No surprises on the invoice. What affects cost: system size, number of air handlers, attic accessibility (some Miami attics are cut-up and tight), whether we need to coordinate with a building manager for condo access, and the condition we find when we open the first register. Call (323) 918-4345 for an exact quote. Estimates are free.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Miami
Because Miami’s near-constant AC operation and extreme humidity create chronic condensation inside flex duct liners, so we find active microbial growth in almost every system we open, not just dust. Antimicrobial treatment isn’t an upsell here; it’s the actual fix for the problem that caused the call. Call (323) 918-4345 for an exact quote on your system.
Usually not completely. The original duct boots in 1960s-70s CBS homes are embedded in the concrete slab or interior walls, making full replacement physically impossible without major construction. We seal the boots, replace accessible attic flex, and set up a cleaning cycle every 2-3 years. That’s the real solution for this housing stock.
We remove microbial growth, delaminated duct liner material, insect debris, pollen, and the organic accumulation that feeds mold colonies in condensation-soaked flex duct. We don’t just vacuum dust; we source-remove the contamination that’s growing in the liner, using agitation tools under negative pressure with HEPA filtration.
Condos use fan-coil units with short duct runs and shared air handlers, so we coordinate with building management for access, clean the individual unit’s ducts and coil, and provide documentation for HOA records. The work is quieter and faster per unit, but scheduling requires building approval.
Yes, for any job involving potential repair or microbial treatment. We camera-inspect the first accessible run to confirm the condition of the liner and the boot connections. The inspection is included in our free estimate visit, and we write the price before we start any work. Call (323) 918-4345 to schedule.
