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 Three Lakes, FL
Air duct cleaning in Three Lakes usually runs between $450 and $950 for a full single-family home, depending on system size and how much biological growth has settled inside the flex duct. The homes here were mostly built in the 1980s and 1990s, and many still run on their original flex ductwork, which sits in attic spaces that hit 140°F or more for months at a time. That heat, combined with the Everglades moisture drifting in from the west, means Three Lakes ductwork collects mold, pollen, and dust mites faster than just about any inland suburb in Miami-Dade. We’re Paul Adeyemi’s team at Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning, and we’ll give you a written price before any work begins. Call (323) 918-4345 when you’re ready to see what’s actually moving through your vents.
Why Three Lakes Homes Are Different
Three Lakes sits right against the Everglades corridor, and that location changes everything about how duct systems behave. The three namesake lakes keep localized humidity persistently high, while the wetlands to the west send a steady load of organic particulates, mold spores, and pollen into the air that your AC pulls through the return vents all year. In a typical inland Florida suburb, duct contamination is a seasonal nuisance. Out here, it’s a continuous load.
The housing stock makes it worse. The typical Three Lakes home is a CBS (concrete block and stucco) single-family ranch built during Miami-Dade’s southwestward expansion, with original flex ductwork routed through unconditioned attics. Those attics regularly exceed 140°F in summer. Flex duct liners bake, crack, and separate at the joints, and the original zip-tie connections from the 90s are often gone entirely. We regularly find duct sections that have pulled apart in the attic, which means your AC is blowing conditioned air into the attic instead of into the bedrooms. That’s not a cleaning problem, it’s an integrity problem, and it has to be fixed before a cleaning will help at all. When we work in Three Lakes, we check for both.
Our Main Three Lakes Services
Most Three Lakes homeowners call us for one of two reasons: air duct cleaning for the AC system, or dryer vent cleaning for the laundry exhaust. Each job is different, and each has its own page so you can see exactly what’s involved before you call.
Air Duct Cleaning in Three Lakes
Air duct cleaning in Three Lakes is a deeper job here than in drier parts of Florida. The persistent humidity near the lakes means biological growth can establish between annual cleanings if drain pans or humidity control are even slightly off. We pull the registers, reach the full length of each flex duct run, and remove what’s accumulated inside the liner and at the joints. If we find a collapsed or detached section in the attic, we’ll show you photos and give you a written price for the repair before we do anything else. Full details and pricing are on the dedicated page: Air Duct Cleaning in Three Lakes.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Three Lakes
Dryer vents in Three Lakes collect lint just like anywhere else, but the damp air near the lakes adds another layer: lint can mat together and hold moisture, which makes blockages form sooner. High humidity also means lint that does escape the vent tends to settle and cling rather than blow away. We run professional equipment from Rotobrush and Nikro through the full vent run, from the dryer connection to the exterior cap, and we’ll show you what came out.

No. Duct work happens entirely inside your home or in your attic, so no HOA approval or permit is required anywhere in Three Lakes. If your HOA has rules about rooftop access or exterior vent caps, we work within those when needed, but interior cleaning never triggers a review.
If we find collapsed or detached flex duct in your attic, we stop and show you photos of exactly what we found. We’ll give you a written price for the repair before we go further. No repair happens without your approval, and the price you approved is the price you pay.

What Three Lakes Customers Say
"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."
- Shelby Dunham"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."
