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 Salmon Creek, WA
Air duct cleaning in Salmon Creek typically costs $390-$850 for a full system on a home between 1,800 and 2,800 square feet, with most jobs completed in half a day. Nearly every Salmon Creek subdivision hit its 20- to 35-year mark right around now, which means original flex duct runs are failing on the same timeline across whole neighborhoods. If your ducts have never been cleaned or inspected, call (323) 918-4345 and we’ll give you a written price before anyone walks in the door.
Why Salmon Creek Homes Are Different
Salmon Creek grew in one concentrated wave. Most of the single-family stock went up between 1990 and 2008, which puts thousands of tract homes in the exact window where original flex duct liners start breaking down, mastic seals crack, and supply boots pull away from floor registers. A home built in 1995 is hitting those problems now. So is the one next door. That’s not a coincidence; it’s a construction timeline.
The homes here sit mostly on slabs or above vented crawl spaces, and they run forced-air gas furnaces with long flex runs. After 25-plus years, those runs sag, disconnect at the joints, and collect the kind of damp debris that smells when the heat kicks on. The wetland and creek corridor around the greenway adds ambient moisture most suburbs don’t deal with, and that moisture finds its way into crawl-space ductwork. In the developments off NW 36th Ave and over toward Felida, our technicians routinely find flex runs pooled with condensation that has turned the interior liner into a mold host. That’s the Salmon Creek signature issue, and it changes how we clean: we’re not just removing dust, we’re checking for moisture damage at every supply boot and splice.
Our Main Salmon Creek Services
Salmon Creek homeowners call us most often for two jobs: full-system air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. Each has its own page with pricing, what to expect, and local specifics.
Air Duct Cleaning in Salmon Creek
The forced-air systems in Salmon Creek’s 1990s and 2000s tract homes have long flex runs that sag into vented crawl spaces and absorb creek corridor moisture. We inspect every accessible joint, clean the full supply and return side with professional equipment from Nikro and Rotobrush, and photograph the interior so you can see what changed. Floors get shoe covers and drop cloths; kids and pets are never in the way because we plan the day around your household. Get the full breakdown on our Air Duct Cleaning in Salmon Creek page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Salmon Creek
Dryer vents in Salmon Creek’s slab and crawl-space homes often run longer than code current allows, with more bends and more places for wet lint to pack in. Even homes that clean the lint trap every load will see buildup deep in the run after a year or two, and a slow dryer is the first sign. We clean the full run from dryer to exterior termination, verify airflow, and protect the laundry area before we begin. See the process and pricing on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Salmon Creek page.

No. Air duct and dryer vent cleaning doesn’t touch the home’s exterior beyond the dryer vent termination, so HOA approval isn’t required. If you’re in a neighborhood with strict exterior rules, the vent termination work we do is confined to what’s already there. No permits are needed for cleaning or resealing existing ductwork inside the home.
