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 Steiner Ranch, TX
Air duct cleaning in Steiner Ranch runs between $395 and $765 for a complete system on a typical 2,500-4,500 sq ft two-story home, and most jobs are scheduled within a week, not a month. What makes this community different is the terrain: homes here sit on elevated Hill Country lots directly against the Balcones Canyonlands Preserve, with dense Ashe juniper on three sides. That means cedar pollen loads in ductwork that Austin’s urban neighborhoods simply don’t experience. Call Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning at (323) 918-4345 for a written quote before any work begins.
Why Steiner Ranch Homes Are Different
Steiner Ranch wasn’t built all at once. The community grew in phases from the late 1990s through roughly 2015, which means our technicians walk into homes with very different HVAC generations: early-phase houses with single-zone systems and long flex duct runs, and later-phase homes with zoned setups that push air through two or three separate trunk lines. Most of these are large two-story stone-and-stucco builds, 2,500 to 4,500 square feet or more, and nearly all of them have flex duct running through attic spaces that hit 140-150°F in July and August.
That attic heat is the quiet variable in every Steiner Ranch job. Flex duct sags over time, and in a Hill Country attic it sags faster. The low spots catch dust, construction debris from the original build, and a steady supply of cedar pollen and limestone particulate that the wind carries in from undeveloped land to the west and north. Homes on streets backing directly onto the preserve have almost no buffer at all. We routinely find that 1-inch return filters on those streets are loaded solid by mid-January, and once a filter clogs, pollen starts bypassing it and coating the supply ducts themselves.
The good news is that this is predictable. We know what a Steiner Ranch system looks like after a heavy cedar season because we see the same patterns year after year, and we plan the work around them rather than discovering them mid-job.
Our Main Steiner Ranch Services
Steiner Ranch homeowners call us most often for two jobs: full air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. Both are priced per system, written down before we start, and backed by the 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Air Duct Cleaning in Steiner Ranch
A full Air Duct Cleaning in Steiner Ranch job here typically means reaching every supply and return register across multiple floors, plus the trunk lines and air handler. Because so many Steiner Ranch attics run hot, we pay particular attention to sagging flex duct in the attic where debris collects and compacts. We use Rotobrush and Nikro equipment to agitate and extract what’s settled in, not just surface dust. Each visit includes shoe covers and drop cloths inside the home, a written price before we begin, and a photo of the cleanup before we leave. Homes nearest the preserve get a closer look at return-side buildup because that’s where cedar pollen enters first.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Steiner Ranch
Steiner Ranch laundry rooms are often on the second floor or central hallway, with dryer vents that run long horizontal distances before exiting through stone exterior walls. That geometry collects lint faster than a short, straight vent. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Steiner Ranch service removes the packed lint from the full run, checks the termination point outside, and confirms airflow before we pack up. With two-story stone exteriors, this often means working from an exterior wall or roofline rather than a garage wall, so we bring the right equipment for the job. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers this work the same as every other visit.

We give every homeowner a written price per system before work starts, and that number is what you pay. No per-vent pricing, no surprise add-ons after the van is parked in your driveway.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Steiner Ranch
Most Steiner Ranch homes take between 3 and 6 hours, depending on square footage, the number of zones, and how much attic flex duct we need to access and inspect. Two-story homes with zoned systems add time because every register gets brushed and every trunk line gets negative-air extraction, not just the easy ones.
No. Air duct and dryer vent cleaning are interior maintenance work, and the Steiner Ranch HOA doesn’t require approval for work that doesn’t alter the exterior or involve construction. If a roofline vent termination needs to be accessed, we coordinate that with you directly.
Yes. Our technicians bring quieter tools when a customer asks, and we’ll sequence the noisiest extraction work around your household’s schedule. Pets stay safe too: we use pet-safe product choices where available and keep exterior doors closed while we’re working. Call (323) 918-4345 and tell us what the day looks like, and we’ll plan around it.

What Steiner Ranch 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."
