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 Bellaire, TX
Air duct cleaning in Bellaire means working in homes that sit on streets shaded by mature live oaks, with attics that regularly bake past 150°F in July. We’re Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning, and we clean Bellaire ductwork in two very different kinds of houses: original 1950s-to-1970s ranch homes where the flex duct has been breaking down for half a century, and brand-new luxury rebuilds full of post-construction dust. If your vents haven’t been opened since Harvey or since your builder handed over the keys, call (323) 918-4345 and we’ll tell you exactly what we’ll do and what it will cost before anyone touches a ladder.
Why Bellaire Homes Are Different
Bellaire’s housing stock splits into two groups, and each has its own duct problem. The original ranch homes, built mostly between the 1950s and 1970s, often still run their original sheet-metal trunks with flex duct branches that have never been replaced. In an attic that exceeds 150°F for weeks at a stretch, those liners crack, split, and sag, pulling insulation fibers and decades of dust into the airflow. Then there are the houses that replaced them: sprawling two-story builds with multi-zone systems, fresh drywall dust packed into every return, and construction debris that got sealed inside the ductwork before the trim went on.
The other thing Bellaire has in common with no neighboring city is flood memory. Harvey put standing water into return-air plenums and low-lying duct runs across Bellaire’s streets near Brays Bayou, and after the drywall was replaced, a lot of that ductwork never got a second look. We routinely open return boxes in Bellaire and find dried sediment lines and mold staining from water that sat there in 2017. That’s not a scare tactic; it’s a condition we see in this city specifically, and our cleaning approach accounts for it.
Our Main Bellaire Services
Bellaire homeowners call us for two jobs more than anything else: whole-system air duct cleaning, and dryer vent cleaning. Here’s what each one actually involves in this city.
Air Duct Cleaning in Bellaire
We clean supply trunks, return drops, branch runs, and boots with truck-mounted negative-air equipment from Rotobrush and Nikro, not a portable shop vac. In Bellaire’s 150°F attics, we work in short intervals to protect both the technician and the flex duct, and we inspect the return-air boxes for Harvey sediment as a matter of course. Teenage kids’ bedrooms with old carpet are usually the worst offenders. One flat price per system, written before we start. Air Duct Cleaning in Bellaire has full details.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Bellaire
Bellaire dryer vents run through attics, wall cavities, or under slab foundations depending on the home’s age, and the longer the run, the more lint compacts inside it. That lint picks up shower-room humidity in Bellaire’s climate, forming a dense mat that reduces airflow and turns the vent into a fire load. We clean the full run from dryer to exterior cap, verify the termination, and show you the before-and-after photos. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Bellaire covers what to expect and what it costs.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Bellaire
Most Bellaire jobs are scheduled within three to five business days, depending on the week. We don’t promise same-day service because we don’t rush the work. Call (323) 918-4345 for current scheduling.
Duct and dryer vent cleaning doesn’t require a city permit in Bellaire, and the work happens entirely inside the home, so HOA approvals don’t apply. The only exterior change is inspecting the dryer vent cap from outside, which takes a few minutes.
Yes. We work in original mid-century homes, new-construction replacements, and everything in between. Multi-zone systems in large custom builds just take longer to clean properly, and that’s reflected in the written price you receive before we start.

What Bellaire Customers Say
"Friendly, calm crew that clearly cared about the house. Covered their shoes, protected the floors, and double checked they'd closed up every vent cover properly. Would have them back."
- Omar Zaid"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."
