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 St. Augustine, FL
Air duct cleaning in St. Augustine costs between $295 and $590 for a whole-home system, and the biggest variable is your house itself. Coastal salt air, 10-plus months of AC runtime, and a housing stock that jumps from 18th-century coquina to 1990s flex duct means no two St. Augustine jobs look alike. We’re Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning, and we bring Rotobrush and Nikro equipment, a written price before we touch anything, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise to every visit. Call (323) 918-4345 if you’d like to talk through what your home needs.
Why St. Augustine Homes Are Different
St. Augustine sits where the Atlantic meets the Intracoastal, and that geography works on your ductwork year-round. Salt-laden air accelerates corrosion inside metal ducts and registers. Meanwhile, dewpoints above 75°F in summer and AC systems running nearly all year create persistent condensation inside ductwork, which quickens mold colonization. Inland cities like Gainesville or Orlando might get away with cleaning every five to seven years. Here, we tell homeowners to think in three-to-four-year cycles, sometimes less if you’re close to the water.
Then there’s the housing stock itself. The historic district’s centuries-old coquina and tabby structures often have ductwork retrofitted through thick, irregular walls with no clean-out access panels. Those systems can’t be cleaned with standard truck-mounted equipment. They need flexible rods and camera scopes, and what looks like a routine job becomes a half-day custom operation. In Palencia, World Golf Village, and other planned communities built in the 1990s and later, we more often see fiberglass-lined flex duct that degrades quickly in the coastal humidity. Different houses, different tools, different plans. We bring both.
Our Main St. Augustine Services
Most St. Augustine homeowners call us for one of two jobs. Each has its own page with full pricing, local details, and what to expect, but here’s the quick version.
Air Duct Cleaning in St. Augustine
Whole-home air duct cleaning in St. Augustine means pulling years of salt-air corrosion, condensation-driven mold, and coastal dust out of your system. Older homes near the Intracoastal accumulate faster than anything inland, so we inspect first, then clean with Rotobrush agitation and HEPA-filtered vacuums. We protect floors with shoe covers and drop cloths, keep tools quiet during nap hours, and show you before-and-after photos of your own ducts before we leave. Full details are on the Air Duct Cleaning in St. Augustine page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in St. Augustine
Humidity means St. Augustine dryer vents collect wet lint that sticks to duct walls instead of blowing through. That heavier buildup slows drying and strains the dryer. We run rotating brushes through the full vent run, from the back of the dryer to the exterior cap, and remove the packed lint at the termination point. We also check for the corroded caps and animal entry we see often in coastal neighborhoods. Pricing and local detail are on the Dryer Vent Cleaning in St. Augustine page.

St. Augustine prices run higher than inland for one reason: access. Historic-district homes with retrofitted systems and no clean-outs take longer and need specialty tools, which is why that range is wider. Whatever your quote, it’s one flat price per system agreed before we start, and it’s backed by the 365-Day Done Right Promise.
