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 Highland Park, TX
Air duct cleaning in Highland Park, TX typically costs between $450 and $950 for a whole-home system, and the job usually takes a morning or afternoon depending on the home’s size and how many returns the crew needs to access. Highland Park’s older estate homes make this work different from the rest of Dallas: retrofitted duct runs, plaster ceilings, and renovation dust change how we plan every visit. Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning has been part of the Cedarwell family since 2005, and Highland Park homeowners call us because we write the price down before any work starts. Call (323) 918-4345 for a specific quote on your system.
Why Highland Park Homes Are Different
Highland Park’s housing stock is dominated by large, architect-designed homes built between the 1920s and 1950s. Almost none of them were built with central forced-air HVAC in mind. The ductwork in these houses was added later, routed through attic plenums, wall chases, and crawl spaces that were never engineered as air pathways. That means the runs are often asymmetrical, with odd bends and dead zones that collect debris far faster than a purpose-built system in a newer home.
There are two consequences we deal with on nearly every Highland Park job. First, many of these homes have pre-1980 duct wrap or internal lining materials that may contain asbestos, which needs to be inspected before any mechanical cleaning can begin. Second, the neighborhood’s constant cycle of high-end renovations means freshly generated plaster dust, insulation fibers, and sawdust keep entering existing systems, even in homes that haven’t been renovated themselves. The air in Highland Park is also running through HVAC systems six or more months of the year, pulling in mountain cedar pollen from December through February and spring elm and oak waves right after. All of this lands inside the ducts.
And then there’s the finish work. Many of these older estate homes have ornate plaster ceiling medallions and original millwork grilles that are irreplaceable. Our technicians are careful around these registers by default; we hand-clean around fragile grilles rather than putting standard brush equipment against something that can’t be replaced.
Our Main Highland Park Services
Highland Park homeowners most often call us for the two services below, and each has its own detailed Highland Park page with specific pricing and what to expect on the job.
Air Duct Cleaning in Highland Park
Duct cleaning in Highland Park means working around retrofitted duct runs that don’t follow the straight lines of a modern home. Our crews connect Rotobrush and Nikro equipment to the system and work room by room, using drop cloths and shoe covers inside the house from the moment they arrive. The goal is to pull out the accumulated construction dust, pollen, and pet dander that these older systems hold onto, while protecting the original millwork and plaster registers that can’t be replaced. Read the full breakdown here: Air Duct Cleaning in Highland Park.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Highland Park
Highland Park laundry rooms are often tucked into older floor plans, which means dryer vent runs can be long, with multiple bends and sometimes unusual exit points. A clogged dryer vent in one of these homes is a fire risk that builds quietly. Our team cleans the full vent run from the dryer to the exterior exit, removing accumulated lint and checking the termination point for blockages. We bring Guardsman and Abatement Technologies equipment for this work. Full details and local pricing are on this page: Dryer Vent Cleaning in Highland Park.

Second, homes with fragile original registers or medallions take longer because that work is done by hand, not with power brushes. The written quote you get before we start reflects all of that; there’s no per-vent surprise or van-side upcharge.

What Highland Park 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."
