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.

Call (323) 918-4345 for a written estimate before any work starts.
We’ve been serving Westchester since Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning was founded in 2005, and we know this CDP’s housing stock intimately. The single-family CBS homes along SW 24th Street, the neighborhoods near Tropical Park, and the owner-occupied properties off Bird Road and 87th Avenue share a common thread: original or first-generation dryer vent runs that have never been professionally inspected. Many terminate in corroded galvanized roof jacks or soffit caps from the Nixon era, packed with decades of compacted lint that stays damp in Miami-Dade’s 75-85% relative humidity. That’s not a theoretical problem. It’s what we find on most Westchester jobs.
Our Dryer Vent Cleaning team works to the Cedarwell Care Promise on every visit: shoe covers and drop cloths from the moment we enter, quiet tools when there’s a napper in the house, and a photo of the clean-up before we leave. We’re background-checked, uniformed, and trained to document everything for your insurer if storm damage is involved.
Why Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning Is Westchester’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
Westchester families call us back because we treat their homes like our own. Paul Adeyemi and our crew have built a reputation in this CDP by showing up when scheduled, explaining exactly what we’ll do before touching anything, and leaving a written price that matches the final invoice. No per-vent add-ons, no “we found another problem” upsells.
Our response time to Westchester is same-day or next-day for standard scheduling, coordinated from our Miami office with local crews who know the area. We understand that SW 24th Street traffic patterns affect arrival windows, and we plan accordingly.
What sets us apart here is our familiarity with Westchester’s specific failure modes. The corroded galvanized wall thimbles, the flex runs collapsed from 140°F+ attic heat, the roof jacks packed with damp lint behind what looks like a clean trap. We’ve documented these conditions for insurers dozens of times. That local knowledge saves Westchester homeowners from unnecessary replacements and denied claims.
Every job carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not right, we make it right. Full stop.
Dryer Vent Inspection in Westchester
Dryer Vent Inspection in Westchester is the critical first step that most homeowners skip, and it’s especially important here because of how this CDP’s 1950s-1970s housing stock hides vent problems behind walls and in attics. A proper inspection runs $120-$180 in Westchester and includes camera documentation of the full lint pathway from the dryer connection through the wall termination. We use Rotobrush inspection cameras with LED lighting to see inside galvanized runs that have been sealed for 40-50 years, and we document pre-existing conditions for insurance purposes before any cleaning begins.
When a Westchester homeowner needs this: if your dryer takes multiple cycles, if you’ve never had the vent professionally inspected, if you’re buying or selling a home in this area, or if you’re filing an insurance claim after water intrusion. The inspection tells us whether the vent can be safely cleaned or whether corrosion, collapse, or flood damage requires partial replacement.
Camera Documentation for Insurance
We photograph and video every inspection. For Westchester homes with post-storm water intrusion, this documentation proves whether the vent channel was compromised before or after the event. Insurers deny claims without this baseline. We provide it standard.
Attic Flex Run Assessment
Many Westchester homes have original flex duct in unconditioned attics where summer temperatures exceed 140°F. We assess sagging, collapse, and liner degradation that restricts airflow even when the wall run appears clear. Replacement flex runs are quoted separately if needed.
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Westchester
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Westchester serves the laundromats, multi-unit buildings, and small commercial kitchens along Coral Way and Bird Road where residential-grade equipment won’t handle the volume. Commercial jobs in Westchester run $350-$800 depending on the number of units, duct length, and access difficulty. We use Nikro high-CFM negative air machines and rotary whips designed for 4-6 inch commercial ductwork, with HEPA containment to protect occupied spaces.
When Westchester businesses need this: quarterly for laundromats with high cycle counts, annually for multi-unit residential buildings, or immediately after any fire department citation for restricted airflow. We schedule around your operating hours and provide written certification of compliance for property managers and insurers.
Multi-Unit Building Compliance
Westchester’s older apartment complexes near SW 16th Street often have shared vent stacks with original galvanized collectors. We map the full system, clean each branch independently, and test airflow at every termination. Documentation is provided for HOA records.
Kitchen Exhaust Integration
Some Westchester commercial kitchens combine dryer and cooking exhaust. We inspect the intersection points for grease-lint accumulation, a fire hazard that standard hood cleaners miss. Our Guardsman-rated cleaning agents break down both contaminants without damaging the duct substrate.
Trusted Brands We Service in Westchester
We carry Rotobrush rotary cleaning systems and Nikro negative air machines on every Westchester truck, with replacement caps, wall thimbles, and bird guards stocked for same-day installation. For homes with integrated Honeywell or Aprilaire ventilation controls, we coordinate cleaning to protect those components. We don’t use rental equipment, and we don’t guess at parts availability. When a Westchester homeowner needs a corroded 1970s roof jack replaced, we have the transition fittings on the shelf because we’ve replaced hundreds of them in this CDP.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Westchester Homes
- Corroded galvanized roof jacks and wall thimbles - The original terminations in Westchester’s 1950s-1970s CBS homes have rusted partially or fully shut, creating a restriction no lint trap cleaning can fix. We find these packed with decades of damp, compacted lint that stays wet in Miami-Dade’s year-round humidity.
- Collapsed flex runs in 140°F+ attics - Original flex duct routed through unconditioned attic spaces has sagged, torn, or delaminated after 40-50 summers. The restriction is invisible from inside the house but chokes airflow to a trickle.
- Storm-induced water intrusion in vent channels - Westchester’s June-October convective storms drive rain into soffit and roof terminations. Damp lint becomes a mold substrate, and post-flood insurers need documentation of whether the vent was compromised before or after the event.
- Assumption that a clean lint trap means a clear vent - In Westchester’s older homes, the visible trap is nearly irrelevant. The real blockage is behind the wall or at the corroded termination, where decades of debris accumulate while the homeowner cleans the trap religiously.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Westchester
It depends on whether water reached the duct channel and how long it sat. If the vent termination was briefly overwhelmed but the interior duct remained dry, professional cleaning with antimicrobial treatment is usually sufficient. If water saturated the flex liner or galvanized trunk for more than 24-48 hours, replacement is typically required because mold establishes in Westchester’s 75-85% ambient humidity faster than in drier climates. We document the moisture line with camera inspection before starting any work, so your insurer can see exactly what was damaged and when. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free post-storm assessment.
In Westchester’s 1950s-1970s homes, the restriction is almost never the lint trap. It’s usually a corroded galvanized roof jack or wall thimble that’s packed solid behind the wall, or a collapsed flex run in the 140°F attic. The visible trap stays clean because moist, compacted lint can’t reach it. We see this constantly in owner-occupied homes near SW 24th Street and 87th Avenue where the same family has lived since the 1970s and the vent has never been professionally inspected. A camera inspection finds the real blockage in about 15 minutes.
Yes. We photograph and video the pre-existing condition of your vent system before any cleaning begins, noting corrosion, collapse, or mold that predates the storm event. We then document the post-event condition and provide a written scope distinguishing cleanable contamination from replacement-required damage. Insurers deny claims without this baseline documentation, especially in Westchester where the same humid conditions that cause post-storm mold also create pre-existing biological growth. Our reports have been accepted by major carriers for both dryer vent and integrated duct claims.
For Westchester’s year-round AC operation and high humidity, we recommend inspection every 12-18 months and cleaning every 18-24 months for typical single-family use. Homes with large families, pet bedding, or frequent towel loads should schedule annually because lint compacts faster in humid conditions. The 1970s-era galvanized hardware common in this CDP accelerates restriction once corrosion begins. Regular inspection catches terminal corrosion before it becomes a full blockage or fire risk.
Yes. We clean commercial dryer vent systems throughout Westchester, including laundromats along Coral Way and Bird Road, multi-unit residential buildings near Tropical Park, and small commercial kitchens with combined exhaust. Commercial jobs require Nikro high-CFM equipment and often involve roof or mechanical room access that residential crews aren’t equipped for. We schedule around your operating hours and provide compliance documentation for property managers and insurers. Call (323) 918-4345 for a commercial estimate tailored to your building’s duct configuration.
