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 McDonough, GA
Air duct cleaning in McDonough usually costs between $450 and $900 for a whole-home system, with most jobs finishing in 4 to 6 hours. McDonough’s housing stock makes this work different from anywhere else in Henry County: the city’s rapid 2000s boom left thousands of near-identical tract homes with flex ductwork routed through sweltering attics, and most of those ducts have never been opened since the day the builders walked off. If you’re in a DR Horton or Centex home off Jonesboro Road and you’re noticing dust settling back on furniture two days after you wipe it down, call Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning at (323) 918-4345 for a written quote before anyone touches anything.
Why McDonough Homes Are Different
McDonough’s growth spurt in the early 2000s was fast, and the construction pace shows up in the ductwork. Builders like DR Horton, Centex, and Ryan Homes put up entire subdivisions in months, and post-construction duct purges were often skipped. The result is predictable: drywall compound dust, wood shavings, and insulation fibers still packed into first-floor return boots in homes across Eagles Landing and the neighborhoods off Jonesboro Road. Technicians see it on nearly every first-time cleaning, and it looks the same house after house.
The climate makes it worse. McDonough sits in the Georgia Piedmont, so spring pine pollen coats every exterior surface and gets pulled into return air. Summer attic temperatures regularly pass 140°F, which cracks and off-gasses the vinyl liner inside flex duct runs. Add Henry County’s year-round humidity and you get a perfect environment for microbial growth inside ducts, especially where returns pull through unsealed crawl space chases. Homes here were built fast, and the ducts were never meant to go two decades without attention.
Our Main McDonough Services
McDonough homeowners call us most about two things: the ducts they can’t see and the dryer vent they keep forgetting about. Each service has its own detailed McDonough page linked below.
Air Duct Cleaning in McDonough
Whole-home duct cleaning is the job that changes how a McDonough house feels. Our crews use Rotobrush and Nikro agitation systems to pull original construction debris, pollen, and dust out of the entire duct run, including the return boots where builders left the worst of it. We walk through the house first, cover floors with drop cloths, and tell you exactly what we’ll do and what it will cost before a hose comes off the truck. Full details are on our Air Duct Cleaning in McDonough page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in McDonough
Dryer vents in McDonough run long and hot, especially in two-story homes where the laundry room sits on the first floor and the vent exits through the roof or a second-story wall. Lint builds up faster when a vent is that long, and a clogged vent means longer dry times and higher energy bills. We clean the full run from the dryer to the exterior cap and show you a photo of the clean-up before we leave. See the full breakdown on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in McDonough page.

What McDonough Customers Say
"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."
- Bonnie Vo"Spotless work. They laid drop cloths everywhere and I was honestly impressed there was zero mess at the end. Showed me the dirt they pulled out so I could see it was worth it."
- Shelby Dunham"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."
