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 Lansdowne, PA
Air duct cleaning in Lansdowne, PA typically costs between $425 and $685 for a whole-home system, with most crews finishing in 3 to 5 hours. What makes Lansdowne jobs different is the housing stock itself: most homes here were built between 1890 and 1930, and their ductwork was retrofitted decades later into spaces never designed for it. That means tighter access, older materials, and a real need for technicians who know what pre-war construction looks like from the inside. If you’re wondering what your system would cost to clean, call (323) 918-4345 and we’ll walk you through it.
Why Lansdowne Homes Are Different
Lansdowne isn’t like the newer developments out in the western suburbs. The borough’s dense grid of twins, rowhouses, and colonials were built for radiator heat, not forced air. When central air arrived in the 1950s and 60s, contractors ran ductwork wherever it would fit: through coal-bin alcoves, inside original plaster wall cavities, and across basement ceilings never meant to carry it. The result is ductwork with odd bends, undersized trunk lines, and joints hidden inside horsehair-lath walls that have been collecting dust for fifty years or more.
The climate adds another layer. Humid Delaware Valley summers push moisture into imperfectly sealed seams, and Lansdowne’s mature tree canopy means heavy spring pollen finds its way into every gap. By the time we arrive, older systems often show a compacted layer of soot-laden dust near what was once the coal chute, material a standard vacuum pass simply won’t lift. Our technicians recognize these retrofits, because treating a 1920s twin like a 1990s colonial leaves half the job undone.
Our Main Lansdowne Services
Most Lansdowne households call us for one of two jobs, and each has its own page where you’ll find local pricing, what the job involves, and what to expect on the day.
Air Duct Cleaning in Lansdowne
Whole-home duct cleaning in Lansdowne starts with a walkthrough of your system, including the basement trunk and any retrofitted sections running through former coal-bin areas. Our technicians use Rotobrush and Nikro equipment to agitate and extract debris that’s been packed into seams for decades, then seal access points cleanly before they leave. Older systems here often run through original plaster cavities, so we move carefully and protect every floor surface along the way. For full local pricing and the step-by-step process, see Air Duct Cleaning in Lansdowne.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lansdowne
Dryer vents in Lansdowne’s pre-war homes frequently exit through basement windows, rim joists, or cramped side yards, and they’ve often been pieced together over the years with whatever was on hand. That means longer runs, more elbows, and more lint trapped at joints than you’d find in newer construction. Our crew cleans the full run from dryer to exterior cap, confirms airflow, and leaves the area tidy. Detailed pricing and what to expect are covered on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lansdowne page.
