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 Dundalk, MD
Air duct cleaning in Dundalk costs $350-$600 for a typical rowhouse system, with larger Cape Cods running $600-$900. What makes Dundalk jobs different from anywhere else in the Baltimore metro is the steel mill legacy: decades of Sparrows Point fallout settled into duct systems throughout the peninsula, layered onto 60-80 year old galvanized ductwork in postwar worker housing. We approach every Dundalk job knowing the ducts have likely never been opened since the home was built, and the interior will show it. Call (323) 918-4345 for a written price before any work begins.
Why Dundalk Homes Are Different
Dundalk sits on a peninsula between the Patapsco River, Back River, and Bear Creek. That geography does two things to ductwork. First, the air stays persistently humid in a way inland Baltimore County neighborhoods don’t experience, which means older uninsulated duct runs collect moisture that encourages mold growth inside the system. Second, the salt-laden air accelerates corrosion on aging galvanized metal. We see duct interiors here with surface rust patterns we rarely encounter in Towson or Essex.
The housing stock compounds the issue. Dundalk is overwhelmingly brick rowhouses and Cape Cods built in the 1940s and 1950s for Sparrows Point steelworkers. Most still have their original or first-generation galvanized duct runs. The fiberglass duct liner in these systems, now 60-80 years old, has deteriorated into a debris-trapping surface that holds onto whatever moves through. The compact, repetitive floor plans mean systems are often short but heavily loaded, and the access points in cramped utility areas are tight. Add the mill’s legacy, and you get a signature contamination pattern: in the Sparrows Point and North Point Village sections especially, we routinely pull reddish-brown iron oxide dust and fine metallic grit from duct interiors. Homeowners are often surprised to see what comes out of systems that have been closed since they moved in.
Our Main Dundalk Services
Dundalk homeowners call us most about two things: cleaning the dust and mill fallout out of their air ducts, and clearing dryer vents that clog faster in this humid, lint-heavy environment. Both are covered in detail on their own pages.
Air Duct Cleaning in Dundalk
Our Air Duct Cleaning in Dundalk work starts with a written price for the whole system, not a per-vent quote that grows once we’re in the house. We run Rotobrush and Nikro equipment through the full duct run, removing the dust, pet hair, and mill particulate that have accumulated over decades. The humidity here means we pay close attention to any signs of moisture or mold inside the ducts, and we document what we find before and after. Floors stay protected with shoe covers and drop cloths throughout.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Dundalk
Dundalk’s humidity means lint clings to the inside of dryer vents rather than drying out and passing through. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Dundalk service clears the full vent run from the dryer to the exterior exhaust point. Older rowhouse layouts often route vents through tight interior walls with multiple bends, and we clean every section, not just the first few feet. We’ll show you what we pulled out before we leave.

What Dundalk 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."
