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 Leon, TX
Air duct cleaning in San Leon, TX typically runs between $450 and $850 for a whole-home system, depending on square footage, the number of returns, and how much salt-air degradation the ductwork has absorbed. Homes here sit on the western shore of Galveston Bay, which means every HVAC system breathes marine air around the clock. That single fact changes how we approach every San Leon job, from the equipment we bring to the way we inspect flex duct under elevated pier-and-beam foundations. Call (323) 918-4345 and we’ll walk you through exactly what your system needs before anyone steps inside.
Why San Leon Homes Are Different
San Leon’s housing stock was largely rebuilt after Hurricane Ike flooded the peninsula in 2008. Those post-Ike rebuilds are now hitting the 12 to 15 year mark where flex duct installed in 2009 and 2012 begins to show real wear, and the failure pattern here is unmistakable. Salt-laden onshore winds from Galveston Bay corrode flexible duct liners and metal fittings from the outside in, while interior surfaces collect moisture-driven biofilm year round. We routinely find duct runs beneath elevated pier-and-beam homes that have sagged, kinked, or pulled loose from registers under the floor decking, pulling raw bay air directly into the supply stream. Homeowners notice it first as a chronic musty smell that no air freshener fixes, or as cooling bills that climb through the long Galveston Bay summer while the AC struggles against air it shouldn’t be moving.
Many San Leon properties are seasonal or part-time vacation homes. An HVAC system that sits idle for three weeks in coastal humidity is a different animal than one that runs daily in a year-round household. Mold and mildew establish deep in idle ductwork, and by the time a family returns for the weekend, the vents are already pushing that growth through the house. Stilt-foundation homes add another variable: duct runs passing through unsealed, unconditioned under-floor spaces are constantly exposed to bay air, and we address that exposure as part of the clean rather than ignoring it.
Our Main San Leon Services
San Leon homeowners call Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning most often for two jobs: full air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. Each has its own San Leon page with local pricing and details.
Air Duct Cleaning in San Leon
Air duct cleaning in San Leon means removing the salt-and-moisture film that accumulates inside supply and return lines, along with the dust, pet hair, and allergens that cling to it. In elevated pier-foundation homes, we also inspect the under-floor duct runs that bay air reaches first, since loose or sagging flex duct there is the most common source of musty air in the living space above. Our crews use professional equipment from Rotobrush and Nikro, not rental gear, and we photograph the duct interior before and after so you can see the difference. Learn more on our Air Duct Cleaning in San Leon page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in San Leon
Dryer vents in San Leon clog faster than inland Galveston County homes because humid bay air makes lint stick to the vent walls instead of blowing through. A vent that’s already partially blocked collects more lint with every load, and in elevated homes we often find long vertical runs that hide buildup from view. We clear the full vent length, confirm airflow at the exterior termination, and leave the laundry area as clean as we found it. Details and pricing are on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in San Leon page.
Every Morton’s visit to San Leon includes shoe covers and drop cloths before tools come in, quiet tools during nap hours where we can manage it, and a written price agreed before any work starts. That’s the Cedarwell Care Promise, and it applies to every job we do on the peninsula.

Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning Company in San Leon, TX
| Service | Typical range in San Leon |
|---|---|
| Whole-home air duct cleaning (single system) | $450 - $850 |
| Air duct cleaning with sanitizing treatment | $550 - $950 |
| Dryer vent cleaning (short run, single story) | $95 - $150 |

What pushes San Leon pricing higher than an inland home is elevation. Ductwork under a pier-and-beam or stilt foundation takes longer to reach and inspect, and salt-exposed flex duct sometimes needs section repair or re-securing before a clean will hold. Whatever the number, you get a written price before we start, and that’s the price on the invoice.

What San Leon Customers Say
"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."
- 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."
