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 Mendota, CA
Air duct cleaning in Mendota isn’t a optional home upgrade here. It’s a response to the western San Joaquin Valley’s agricultural dust, cotton fiber, and chronically poor PM2.5 air quality. Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning serves Mendota homes with a written price before any work starts, professional Rotobrush and Nikro equipment, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise on every job. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free estimate.
Why Mendota Homes Are Different
Mendota sits surrounded by active fields growing cantaloupe, cotton, tomatoes, and garlic. During cotton harvest from September through November, gin dust and plant fiber pack return-air filters solid within weeks. We routinely open plenums in Mendota in October and find them clogged with white fibrous lint that was invisible until the access panel came off. Add summer highs above 105°F forcing central AC to run nearly continuously from June through September, and those ducts load up faster than almost anywhere else in the Valley.
Most Mendota housing stock dates from the 1960s through 1980s, and a lot of it still has original flexible ductwork. Rental turnover here is high, and with it comes deferred maintenance. It’s normal for us to find ducts that haven’t been opened in a decade or more. The older undersized systems work harder, pull more air through leaking connections, and hold onto whatever the fields send through. Winter Tule fog adds humidity that can sit inside ducts already coated with organic crop dust and soil. None of this is a reason to panic. It’s a reason to get a real look inside and a straight answer about what’s actually there.
Our Main Mendota Services
Mendota homeowners call us most often for two things: getting the ductwork clean after years of agricultural dust, and clearing dryer vents that clog faster here than they do in city homes.
Air Duct Cleaning in Mendota
We clean the full duct system in Mendota homes: supply and return lines, plenums, coils, and the blower compartment. In this climate, the return side is usually the worst, packed with crop dust and cotton fiber the filter never caught. Our crews arrive in uniform, lay drop cloths along the path to the access points, and use professional Rotobrush and Nikro equipment to agitate and extract what’s built up inside. We walk you through what we find and what we did, including a photo of the clean-up before we leave. For full details, see our Air Duct Cleaning in Mendota page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Mendota
Dryer vents in Mendota clog faster than they should, partly because of the fine agricultural dust in the air and partly because many older homes here have long vent runs with bends that trap lint. A slow dryer is usually the first sign. We clear the entire vent run from dryer to exterior termination, check airflow at the exit point, and leave the laundry area as clean as we found it. For a full breakdown of how this works in Mendota homes, see our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Mendota page.

What Mendota 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."
