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 Lealman, FL
Air duct cleaning in Lealman, FL typically costs between $350 and $650 for a whole-home system in an average 1,200-1,800 sq ft house, depending on how many returns and supplies the home has and how long it’s been since anyone touched the ducts. We’re Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning, and we work in Lealman every week. Homes here present a very specific set of conditions: aging flex duct in scorching attics, decades of deferred maintenance, and humidity that never lets up. If you’re seeing dust settle back on furniture within days of cleaning, or certain rooms never hold temperature, give us a call at (323) 918-4345 and we’ll walk through what’s likely going on.
Why Lealman Homes Are Different
Lealman’s housing stock is predominantly modest concrete block construction from Pinellas County’s post-WWII boom years, roughly the 1950s through the 1970s. Many of those original homes were later converted to rentals or split into duplexes, and HVAC systems were retrofitted in pieces over the years. What technicians find in Lealman attics is consistently rougher than what we see in owner-occupied St. Petersburg or Largo neighborhoods just a few miles away: mismatched flex duct sections, poorly sealed connections, and return lines pulling humid attic air into the system. The peninsula location between Tampa Bay and Boca Ciega Bay keeps the air salt-heavy and damp nearly year-round, and AC systems run almost continuously from March through November. That combination, aging ducts drawing in humid outside air, is exactly what seeds biological growth inside supply runs.
Along the 49th Street N corridor especially, we regularly find partially collapsed or fully detached flex duct sections. Nobody checked between tenant turnovers for years, so the system was quietly blowing conditioned air into the attic instead of the living room. A routine cleaning call in Lealman often turns up a problem the homeowner didn’t know existed, and fixing that seal is what actually changes comfort and energy use, not just the cleaning itself.
Our Main Lealman Services
Lealman homeowners call us most about two things: the air ducts carrying conditioned air through the house, and the dryer vent carrying hot, lint-filled air out of it. Both are covered below.
Air Duct Cleaning in Lealman
We clean supply and return ductwork using Rotobrush and Nikro equipment, removing the accumulated dust, pet hair, and biological growth that Lealman’s humidity encourages. The work includes protecting floors with shoe covers and drop cloths from the moment our uniformed crew walks in, and we work around nap schedules if you tell us a toddler is down. Most Lealman homes have never had a full cleaning, and older flex duct often needs resealing at connections while we’re in there. You’ll get a written price before anything starts. See the full breakdown on our Air Duct Cleaning in Lealman page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lealman
Lealman laundry rooms are often tight, and dryer vents here tend to run long horizontal stretches through slab foundations or up through hot attics. That lint builds up and restricts airflow, which means longer dry times and a real fire risk. We clean the full vent run from the dryer connection to the exterior termination, using professional-grade equipment, and we show you before-and-after photos of the vent interior. Pricing is flat per system, agreed before we begin. Details are on the Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lealman page.

What pushes Lealman pricing toward the upper end is most often the attic itself: long flex runs in tight, hot spaces take more time, and systems that haven’t been touched in years almost always need additional sealing or a section of flex duct replaced. You’ll receive a written price for your specific system before any work begins, and that price includes the whole job, no per-vent add-ons when the crew arrives.

- 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."
