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 San Carlos Park, FL
Air duct cleaning in San Carlos Park isn’t the same job it is 20 miles east, and the difference comes down to what Hurricane Ian did to this community’s attics. We clean duct systems in the concrete-block tract homes that define the neighborhood, most built between the mid-1970s and 1990s, where flex-duct runs through unconditioned attic spaces that bake at 140°F or more all summer. That combination of storm history, duct age, and southwest Florida humidity means our work here focuses on mold, debris from roof repairs, and collapsed liners rather than simple dust. Call (323) 918-4345 and we’ll explain exactly what your San Carlos Park home needs, and what it costs, before any work begins.
Why San Carlos Park Homes Are Different
San Carlos Park sits in the middle of Lee County’s Hurricane Ian damage corridor. Thousands of homes here took roof breaches in September 2022, and the emergency blue-tarp and tarp-repair period that followed trapped attic moisture for months. We walk into homes today where the drywall has been repaired, the roof is done, the paint is fresh, and the ducts are still carrying a mix of storm debris and mold from that period. The homeowner smells something stale and can’t place it. We put a camera in the duct and find the answer.
The housing stock compounds the problem. Most San Carlos Park homes are slab-on-grade concrete-block builds from the 1970s through the 1990s, and many still have original or first-replacement flexible duct. That duct is now 25 to 40 years old. The inner liner breaks down, the insulation gets wet, and Lee County’s dew points, which sit above 75°F from May through October, mean the condensation never really stops. In drier markets duct cleaning is a periodic chore. Here it’s closer to necessary maintenance.
Our Main San Carlos Park Services
San Carlos Park homeowners call us most often for the two jobs below. Each has its own page with full pricing, process details, and what to expect before the crew arrives.
Air Duct Cleaning in San Carlos Park
We clean the full duct system: supply and return lines, the plenum, and the registers in every room. In San Carlos Park the first step is usually a camera inspection, because ducts that were saturated during Ian often have visible mold growth or debris from torn roof decking inside. We run professional Rotobrush and Nikro equipment through the system, collect what comes out, and show you a photo of the clean-up before the crew leaves. Full details and local pricing are on the Air Duct Cleaning in San Carlos Park page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in San Carlos Park
Dryer vents in San Carlos Park run short, straight, and hot, which sounds easy until you realize the humidity means lint compacts quickly inside the pipe. We clean the full vent run from the dryer to the exterior exit, removing packed lint that slows drying times and can become a fire risk in an attic that already runs hot. Every visit includes a written price before work starts. See the Dryer Vent Cleaning in San Carlos Park page for pricing and what we check.

Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning Company in San Carlos Park, FL
Every job gets a written quote before work starts. What you’re quoted is what you pay. That’s not a policy here; it’s how our crews work, on every visit, no exceptions.
| Service | Typical range in San Carlos Park |
|---|---|
| Full-home air duct cleaning (single system) | $450-$700 |
| Air duct cleaning with post-Ian mold treatment | $700-$1,200 |
| Duct cleaning with attic flex-duct replacement (per run) | $850-$1,600 |
| Dryer vent cleaning | $125-$250 |
| Dryer vent cleaning + exterior vent replacement | $200-$400 |
| Camera inspection (applied toward cleaning if we do the work) | $49-$99 |
| Sanitizing fog treatment (post-cleaning) | $150-$300 |

| Return plenum cleaning and reseal | $150-$350 |
| Whole-home duct seal (mastic at accessible joints) | $400-$900 |
What pushes a San Carlos Park quote toward the higher end is usually one of three things: post-Ian microbial contamination that needs more time and product, collapsed flex-duct liner that means replacement rather than cleaning, or ductwork in tight attic spaces that takes longer to reach safely. You’ll know the price before we start, and it won’t change when the job is done.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in San Carlos Park
Most San Carlos Park homes can be scheduled within three to five business days. We coordinate all scheduling through our South Florida office, but the crew that shows up is local, uniformed, and background-checked. A live person answers the phone 24/7, so you’ll never leave a voicemail and hope.
No. Air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning do not require permits anywhere in Lee County, and no San Carlos Park HOA we’ve worked with has required approval for interior duct work. If you’re also replacing attic duct, that’s still generally interior work with no permit requirement, though we’ll tell you if your situation is different.
The price you’re given, usually a flat fee for the system, not a teaser that grows once the van is parked. It includes shoe covers and drop cloths, a camera-backed check, and a photo of the clean-up before the crew leaves. Cheaper quotes often leave those off the invoice until the last minute. Call (323) 918-4345 for an exact quote, and you’ll get the same number in writing that you heard on the phone.

"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."
