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 Keene, TX
Air duct cleaning in Keene, TX typically costs between $450 and $950 for a whole-home system, and Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning provides a written price before any work begins so you know exactly what that number is before a crew touches your house. Keene is different from the rest of Johnson County because so many homes here were built between the 1950s and 1980s around Southwestern Adventist University, and those original duct systems have been baking in North Texas attics for decades. That means what we find inside Keene ductwork is not the same as what we find in a 2015 subdivision in Burleson. Call us at (323) 918-4345 for a free estimate, and we’ll walk you through what’s actually in your ducts and what it costs to clean them.
Why Keene Homes Are Different
Keene’s housing stock did not come from a single builder throwing up three hundred identical houses in 2008. The city grew slowly around Southwestern Adventist University, and a large share of the homes near campus were built in the 1950s through 1970s for faculty, staff, and university families. Those houses still carry their original sheet-metal and early flex-duct systems in many cases, run through unconditioned attics that hit 130 to 140 degrees every summer. Duct board lining deteriorates, mastic joints crack, and insulation wrap from the 1960s crumbles into the airstream. We find that failure in homes close to the campus more than almost anywhere else we work.
Keene also sits on Blackland Prairie clay, and that ground moves. The shrink-swell soil shifts with rain and drought, and that movement cracks under-slab returns and separates duct connections in crawl spaces. Meanwhile, the cooling season runs May through early October without much of a break, so the blower is pulling dust, pet hair, and whatever the attic sheds directly through the system for six months straight. Add in spring humidity and you get a genuine mold risk inside poorly sealed duct runs. Keene homeowners also tend to ask harder questions about what exactly is in their air, and we like that. It means the job gets done properly the first time.
Our Main Keene Services
Keene homeowners call us for two things most often: full air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. Each has its own dedicated Keene page below, with pricing and specifics for this city.
Air Duct Cleaning in Keene
Whole-home air duct cleaning in Keene means removing years of accumulated dust, construction debris, pet dander, and whatever has shed from aging attic insulation into the supply and return runs. On older Keene homes we almost always find a mix of original galvanized trunk lines and early flex duct that has hardened and cracked. We use Rotobrush and Nikro equipment to agitate and vacuum the full system, and we protect floors with shoe covers and drop cloths from the moment we walk in. For Keene-specific pricing and what to expect, see our full Air Duct Cleaning in Keene page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Keene
Dryer vents in Keene fill with lint faster than homeowners expect, especially in older homes where the vent run is long, has multiple elbows, or terminates through a roof instead of an exterior wall. That lint is fuel. A blocked vent also makes the dryer run longer, which means more hot air and moisture pushed into a house that is already fighting Texas heat. We clean the full run from the dryer to the termination point and give you a photo of the clean-up before we leave. Details and local pricing are on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Keene page.

Brands We Service in Keene

Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning Company in Keene, TX
Here are the real price ranges we quote for Keene. These are whole-system numbers, not teaser rates that multiply once the crew arrives. Every job gets a written price before work starts, and that price does not change at the door unless you add scope.
| Service | Typical range in Keene |
|---|---|
| Whole-home air duct cleaning | $450 – $950 |
| Single furnace/air handler | $250 – $500 |
| Add-on: dryer vent cleaning | $75 – $150 |
| Add-on: sanitizing fog treatment | $150 – $300 |
| Add-on: UV light installation | $350 – $700 |
| Add-on: media filter cabinet | $200 – $400 |
| Add-on: return duct replacement | $300 – $700 |
| Add-on: supply duct replacement | $300 – $700 per run |
| Add-on: attic insulation removal | $1,500 – $3,500 |
| Add-on: crawl space encapsulation | $2,500 – $6,000 |
What pushes a Keene job toward the top of these ranges is mostly access and condition. Homes with original 1960s flex duct in a low-clearance attic take longer than a 1990s home with a walkable space. If the duct connections have separated because of foundation movement, we may recommend sealing or replacement before cleaning so the clean actually lasts. Either way, the price on paper before we start is the price on the invoice when we finish.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Keene
Most Keene jobs are scheduled within a few business days of the estimate call. We are not an emergency duct cleaner, and honestly, duct cleaning is not an emergency service. What we do is show up on the day we agreed, at the time we agreed, with the price you already have in writing.
No. Air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning do not require city permits or HOA approval in Keene. The work happens inside your home and at your dryer vent termination point. If you live in a neighborhood with strict exterior rules, we keep all equipment inside or in the driveway and leave no visible change to the outside of the house.
We use negative-air equipment from Rotobrush and Nikro that vacuums debris out of the system while it is agitated, rather than blowing it back into your rooms. Before we leave, we take a photo of the clean-up so you can see exactly what the inside of your ducts looked like after the work. If it is not done right, the 365-Day Done Right Promise means we come back and make it right.

What Keene Customers Say
"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."
- 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."
