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 Fate, TX
Air duct cleaning in Fate typically costs between $450 and $1,200 for a whole-home system, depending on home size and how much construction debris has settled in the ductwork. Most Fate homes were built quickly during the city’s rapid expansion, and many systems still carry drywall dust and sawdust from the original build. Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning provides written pricing before any work starts, so you know the full number before our crew touches a vent. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free estimate.
Why Fate Homes Are Different
Fate grew from under 1,000 residents in 2000 to more than 20,000 by the mid-2020s, and that single fact shapes almost every duct cleaning job here. Nearly all of Fate’s housing stock consists of slab-on-grade tract homes built during fast construction cycles – which means post-construction duct cleaning was almost always skipped. We regularly pull drywall dust, joint compound particles, and sawdust out of systems in homes that are five, ten, even fifteen years old. Unlike Rockwall, where you’ll find a mix of older and newer homes, Fate’s demand is overwhelmingly driven by this one reality: new construction that never got a proper duct cleaning.
The attics here don’t help. Fate sits in the Blackland Prairie, and summer attic temperatures regularly exceed 150°F. Flex-duct connections degrade faster in that heat, and condensation inside attic-run systems creates conditions where dust caking turns into something harder to remove. The surrounding land transitioned quickly from cotton and grain fields to dense subdivisions, so fine clay dust and field soil still drift through return intakes – especially in neighborhoods built in phases, where construction never fully stopped around the occupied homes.
Our Main Fate Services
Two services account for most of the calls we take from Fate homeowners. Each has its own page with full details, pricing, and what to expect.
Air Duct Cleaning in Fate
Most Fate homes need a full system cleaning that addresses construction debris first and everyday dust second. Our crew uses Rotobrush and Nikro equipment to agitate and extract what’s built up inside supply runs, return runs, and the main trunk line. In homes built during the 2010s construction surge, HVAC systems often ran for months before owners moved in – sometimes with builder-grade filters unchanged – so a full season of construction particulates got pulled into the primary ducts before anyone ever lived in the house. We work around nap schedules when young kids are home and use pet-safe products where available. Air Duct Cleaning in Fate.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Fate
Dryer vents in Fate clog differently than in older cities. The fine clay dust from the Blackland Prairie settles in the vent run, and when you add the lint from a household with kids and pets, the combination packs tighter and faster than lint alone. We clean the full run from dryer connection to exterior termination, check airflow at the hood, and clear any bird or rodent debris. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Fate.

Degraded flex-duct connections in a superheated attic can also add scope once we inspect the system. What never changes is the price: every Morton’s job comes with a written quote agreed before any work begins, and that number does not move.

"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."
