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 Buford, GA
Air duct cleaning in Buford typically runs between $450 and $900 for a full single-system home, depending on the number of returns and the condition of the flex-duct runs. We’re Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning, and we’ve built our Buford work around one simple habit: a written price before anything gets touched, floors covered the moment we walk in, and a photo of the clean-up before we leave. Most Buford homes we see were built in the 1990s and 2000s, and their ductwork has been cooking in Georgia attic heat for two or three decades. That changes the job, and it changes what families should expect from a quote. Call us at (323) 918-4345 and we’ll talk through what’s actually inside your ducts before anyone schedules anything.
Why Buford Homes Are Different
Buford grew fast. The subdivisions that spread through the 1990s and 2000s were built quickly, and nearly all of them share the same bones: forced-air systems with flexible ductwork run through unconditioned attic spaces. Two decades of Georgia attic heat cycles are hard on flex duct. The plastic inner liners stiffen, develop micro-tears, and begin pulling attic insulation fibers into the airstream. That’s not an HVAC filter problem. That’s a duct integrity problem, and it’s one of the most common findings we document in Buford homes.
Then there’s Lake Lanier. The lake sits right against Buford, and it pushes localized humidity higher than what inland suburbs feel. During cooling season, warm attic air meets cooler duct surfaces, and condensation forms inside the flex-duct runs. Moisture inside a dark duct is exactly where mold and mildew like to grow, especially when the system has never been professionally cleaned. Spring pollen from loblolly pine and oak compounds it: return-air filters clog fast, and fine particulates slip past into the duct interiors. A Buford duct cleaning isn’t the same job as one in a drier, newer suburb. The ductwork is older, the moisture load is higher, and the typical home has simply never had the system opened up.
Our Main Buford Services
Buford homeowners call us about two things most often: the air ducts that move conditioned air through the house, and the dryer vent that moves hot, lint-laden air out of it. Both jobs have their own dedicated Buford page below.
Air Duct Cleaning in Buford
This is the full-system clean of the supply and return ductwork. In Buford, the work usually begins in the attic, where we inspect the flex-duct runs for sagging, disconnections, and the micro-tears that develop after years of heat cycling near Lake Lanier. From there we work through every register and return, running professional-grade equipment like Rotobrush and Nikro through the full length of each run. Floors stay protected with shoe covers and drop cloths, and the price is written down before we start. See the full breakdown on our Air Duct Cleaning in Buford page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Buford
Dryer vents in Buford run through walls and crawl spaces that collect lint faster than most homeowners expect, especially in lakeside homes where humidity keeps lint damp and sticky. A restricted dryer vent means longer dry times and a real fire risk, and it’s a job that should be done with a proper rotary brush, not a shop vac. We clean the full vent run from the dryer to the exterior termination, and we photograph the clean-out before we pack up. Details and pricing are on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Buford page.

What Buford Customers Say
"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."
- Scott Hemmings"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."
