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.
Fast, Reliable Dryer Vent Cleaning Across Iona
Dryer vent cleaning in Iona, FL typically runs $180-$340 for a standard residential system, with most jobs completed in under two hours. If your dryer takes two cycles to finish a load, or if you smell musty heat behind the laundry wall, the real blockage is almost certainly past the lint trap and deep in the vent run.
We’re Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning, and our crews work Iona regularly. We know the 1970s-1990s ranch homes along McGregor Boulevard, the canal-threaded neighborhoods west of US-41, and the particular headache of dryers sited on interior walls with 20-30 foot vent runs baking through 130-150°F attics. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning team arrives with Rotobrush agitation tools and Nikro HEPA-negative-air systems, not shop vacs and brushes. We give you a written price before we touch anything, and every job carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free estimate.
Why Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning Is Iona’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
We’ve been part of the Cedarwell family since 2005, and our dispatch office in Miami coordinates crews who serve Iona directly. That means scheduling that respects your day, not a three-hour window from across the state.
Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and trained to the Cedarwell C.A.R.E. values. They put on shoe covers and lay drop cloths before stepping past your threshold. They work quietly when there’s a toddler napping down the hall. They ask where the pets are before firing up equipment. And they leave a photo of the clean-up on your phone before they drive away.
What Iona homeowners tell us they value most: the written price upfront, every time, with no per-vent add-ons or post-job surprises. One flat price per system, agreed before work starts.
Dryer Vent Inspection in Iona
Dryer Vent Inspection in Iona is where we almost always start, because the real problem in this market hides where you can’t see it. Our technician feeds a lighted camera through the full vent run, from the dryer connection to the exterior cap, documenting every crushed section, disconnected joint, sediment deposit, and lint dam. In Iona’s salt-humid climate, we routinely find damp lint caked into a mat at low points in flex duct, especially where storm-wet insulation sags against the run in attic spaces. A typical Dryer Vent Inspection in Iona runs $120-$180, and if you proceed with cleaning the same day, we credit the inspection fee toward the full service.
Camera Documentation
You’ll see what we see. The video feed shows the interior condition of your vent in real time, with timestamps and location notes. If there’s Ian-era sediment wicking from a wall cavity into the duct boot, or a flex liner crushed behind new drywall, the camera catches it. No guesswork, no scare tactics. Just the actual condition of your system.
Written Findings and Price
After inspection, we hand you a written report with photos and a single flat price for recommended work. You choose whether to proceed. There’s no diagnostic charge that disappears only if you buy. The inspection stands on its own, and the price we quote is the price on the invoice.
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Iona
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Iona covers multi-unit laundry rooms, assisted-living facilities, vacation-rental operations, and any business running dryers on cycles all day. The same salt-humid conditions that affect homes here accelerate lint compaction in commercial systems, but the stakes are higher: insurance carriers increasingly require documented annual cleaning, and a fire in a multi-unit building triggers code inspections that can shut operations down. Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Iona typically runs $280-$550 per system depending on run length, access difficulty, and whether the vent serves stacked or side-by-side units.
Multi-Unit Coordination
We schedule around your tenants or guests, not the other way around. Our crew works with property managers to access laundry rooms during low-occupancy windows, and we bring enough negative-air capacity to handle longer commercial runs without extending the appointment into checkout or turnover times.
Code Documentation
Every commercial job includes before-and-after photos with timestamps, plus a cleaning certificate for your insurance file. If your carrier or the Lee County fire inspector asks for proof of maintenance, you’ll have it ready.
Trusted Brands We Service in Iona
We clean and maintain dryer vent systems connected to every major appliance brand, and we stock common replacement parts locally so Iona homeowners aren’t waiting on shipped components. Our service vans carry rigid duct, vent caps, bird guards, and transition hoses from Guardsman and Abatement Technologies. For jobs requiring full source removal or HEPA-contained cleaning, we deploy Nikro portable negative-air machines and Rotobrush brush-and-vac systems. That combination of professional-grade equipment and local parts inventory means most Iona repairs finish same-visit, not next-week.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Iona Homes
- Crushed flex behind post-Ian drywall. Remediation crews replaced visible damage but often stuffed original mylar flex back into wall cavities. The dryer runs, but airflow is choked. We find this on camera, then replace the crushed run with rigid duct that won’t collapse again.
- Damp lint matting from salt-humid attic infiltration. Iona’s Gulf-influenced air leaks through disconnected duct joints, moistening lint into a dense cake. A shop vac won’t touch it. We break it up with Rotobrush agitation under Nikro HEPA negative pressure, then seal the joints so it doesn’t reform.
- Storm sediment in wall cavities blocking concealed runs. Ian’s surge wicked sediment through floor registers into duct boots and surrounding wall space. The vent looks clear at the termination cap, but the hidden run is partially obstructed. Camera inspection reveals what surface cleaning misses.
- Original 1970s-1990s vent caps corroded or missing bird guards. Iona’s salt air eats galvanized steel. We replace deteriorated caps with corrosion-resistant models and install bird guards where nesting is recurring, especially near canal corridors where grackles and starlings congregate.
Pricing for Dryer Vent Cleaning in Iona, FL
Most Iona homeowners pay $180-$340 for a complete residential dryer vent cleaning. That covers inspection with camera, agitation cleaning of the full run, HEPA-contained debris removal, and basic vent cap inspection.

A typical vent rerouting in Iona runs $220-$380. Bird guard installation is $85-$140 per cap. Commercial systems start at $280 and scale with run complexity.
What affects your price: run length (Iona’s interior-wall dryers often need 20-30 feet of cleaning), access difficulty (attic or crawl space work), whether the vent is rigid or flex duct, and whether storm damage requires repair beyond cleaning. We do not quote per-vent or per-foot. One system, one flat price, written before we start. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free estimate.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Iona
Because salt-humid Gulf air infiltrates through leaky duct joints in your attic, dampening lint so it mats and grabs new debris. Cleaning alone won’t stop recurrence if the underlying leaks aren’t sealed. We inspect for disconnected joints during every Iona cleaning and quote sealing work when we find it. Call (323) 918-4345 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
Yes. Ian’s storm surge wicked sediment-laden water into wall cavities and duct boots through floor registers, especially in Iona’s low-lying canal neighborhoods. Post-Ian remediation often replaced drywall and flooring but left attic duct runs untouched. That sediment sits outside the visible vent path, creating partial blockages and musty odors that only camera inspection reveals. Call (323) 918-4345 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
If your dryer performance has changed gradually - longer cycles, hotter laundry room, musty smell - start with inspection. The camera shows whether you’re dealing with simple lint accumulation or hidden crush damage, sediment intrusion, or joint separation. If the vent is clearly blocked (no airflow at the exterior cap), book cleaning directly. Either way, we’ll credit the inspection fee if you proceed with service same-day. Call (323) 918-4345 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
Yes. Commercial systems run hotter, longer, and accumulate lint faster, plus insurance and fire code requirements demand documented maintenance. We bring higher-capacity Nikro negative-air equipment for commercial runs, schedule around your operations, and provide cleaning certificates for your compliance files. Call (323) 918-4345 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
Rotobrush brush-and-vac systems for agitation cleaning inside the duct, Nikro portable HEPA negative-air machines for contained debris removal, and lighted inspection cameras for documentation. For repairs, we stock rigid duct, transition hose, and corrosion-resistant vent caps from Guardsman and Abatement Technologies. Everything rides in a van that shows up at your Iona home, not a rental run from the hardware store. Call (323) 918-4345 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
