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 Shores, FL
St. Augustine Shores isn’t like most St. Johns County neighborhoods, and the ductwork inside its homes tells the story. Built almost entirely between 1970 and 1985 by General Development Corporation, the community’s original duct systems are now 40 to 50-plus years old. That means fiberglass duct board and early flex duct that have spent decades cycling through Florida attic heat and salt-laden coastal humidity from the Matanzas River. We approach every St. Augustine Shores job with that history in mind. If you’d like a written quote before any work begins, call (323) 918-4345.
Why St. Augustine Shores Homes Are Different
St. Augustine Shores was built to a handful of uniform floor plans by one developer in the 1970s and early 1980s. Nearly every home is concrete block, and nearly every duct system runs through an unconditioned attic where summer temperatures routinely pass 130°F. Original fiberglass duct board delaminates under that stress. Early flex duct breaks down at the elbows. Neither material was designed for decades of that kind of heat, and both now shed particulate into living spaces as they degrade.
The community’s position directly alongside the Matanzas River and Intracoastal Waterway adds a second layer. Salt-laden coastal humidity keeps relative humidity high inside duct systems even while the AC is running. That persistent moisture creates conditions for mold, mildew, and dust-mite allergen buildup, especially inside porous fiberglass duct board that was never sealed well to begin with. Technicians who work here often find the same failure patterns repeating from house to house: collapsed flex elbows at air handler transitions, mold blooms at ceiling supply boots, and delaminating duct board shedding fibers into bedrooms and hallways. Once you know the Shores template, the work becomes unusually predictable.
Our Main St. Augustine Shores Services
Most St. Augustine Shores homeowners call us about two things: the supply and return ductwork that moves conditioned air through the house, and the dryer vent that moves hot, humid air out. Our crews serve the community with equipment from Rotobrush and Abatement Technologies, and we bring shoe covers and drop cloths on every visit.
Air Duct Cleaning in St. Augustine Shores
Cleaning the duct system in a Shores home means removing years of accumulated dust, pet dander, and degrading duct board fibers from supply and return lines. Many of these homes still have original flex duct with collapsed elbows at the air handler transition, and our technicians account for that before starting. We inspect the plenum and accessible runs, then clean with professional-grade Rotobrush equipment so the system moves air properly again. A written price is provided before any work starts.

Dryer Vent Cleaning in St. Augustine Shores
Dryer vents in St. Augustine Shores run long and often through hot attics, which makes lint buildup a real concern in homes built to the original GDC plans. Coastal humidity makes that lint clump and cling to vent walls rather than staying loose. We clean the full vent run from dryer to exterior termination using Nikro equipment, and we confirm airflow at the exit point before we leave. The price is written and agreed to before we start. Dryer Vent Cleaning in St. Augustine Shores covers the specifics.
