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 Westwood Lakes, FL
Full-system air duct cleaning in Westwood Lakes typically runs $350 – $650 for a standard single-story home, with dryer vent cleaning adding $120 – $200 and duct sealing ranging $400 – $900 depending on accessibility. We dispatch crews from our Miami office and serve Westwood Lakes homes with equipment built for South Florida’s unique conditions: year-round humidity, hurricane-season moisture intrusion, and the microbial growth that comes with both. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
Westwood Lakes isn’t a generic suburban market. The homes here, mostly built between the 1970s and 1990s, run their AC systems more than 90% of the year. That constant airflow through aging fiberglass-lined flex duct creates a black, musty biofilm that dry-climate cleaners rarely encounter. When hurricane warnings send wind-driven rain through attic vents, the moisture intrusion makes everything worse. We see it every season. We clean it with Rotobrush rotary systems and Nikro negative-air machines, the same tools commercial crews use, and we price every job in writing before we touch a vent.
Why Westwood Lakes Homes Are Different
The housing stock in Westwood Lakes is dominated by single-story ranch and Mediterranean-style tract homes with original or once-replaced flex-duct runs buried in low attic spaces. Many homeowners have upgraded their AC unit once or twice, but the ductwork itself is often still the original installation: undersized, fiberglass-lined, and trapped in attic cavities that hit 140 degrees in summer. That combination matters because fiberglass lining traps organic debris and moisture in a way metal ductwork doesn’t.
South Florida’s humidity means condensation forms inside these ducts almost daily. The high water table and tropical downpours, especially June through November, push attic humidity even higher. After every named storm scare, we get calls from Westwood Lakes homeowners who need full duct decontamination from wind-driven moisture that inland communities simply don’t experience. The best time to schedule a cleaning is right before June, when the rainy season pushes indoor humidity to its peak and before the biofilm has months to colonize.
Local codes and HOA requirements in Miami-Dade County also affect how we work. Permits aren’t typically required for standard duct cleaning, but any duct modification or sealing that involves access panel installation may need county review. We handle that paperwork when it applies, and we know which Westwood Lakes subdivisions have attic-access restrictions from original covenants.
Our Main Westwood Lakes Services
Westwood Lakes homeowners call us for three core services, each with its own local conditions and pricing. Every job gets a written price upfront and the 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Air Duct Cleaning in Westwood Lakes
We clean the full supply and return duct network, including trunk lines, branch ducts, and register boots, using a Rotobrush rotary brush system for agitation and a Nikro negative-air machine for containment. In Westwood Lakes, we pay special attention to the fiberglass-lined flex duct common in 1970s – 1990s builds, where the porous surface traps humid-condensate-driven microbial growth that standard vacuuming won’t remove. We also inspect for post-hurricane moisture intrusion and document before-and-after conditions with photos. Air Duct Cleaning in Westwood Lakes
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Westwood Lakes
Dryer vent cleaning in Westwood Lakes addresses the lint accumulation that South Florida’s constant humidity compacts into dense, damp clogs. We run a rotary brush through the full vent run, from the dryer connection to the exterior termination, and measure airflow before and after. Many Westwood Lakes homes have long vent runs through low attics or slab-side exits that are prone to sagging and water pooling during heavy rains. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Westwood Lakes
Duct Sealing in Westwood Lakes
Duct sealing closes the leaks that pull hot, humid attic air into your system, wasting energy and introducing unfiltered moisture. In Westwood Lakes, we apply mastic sealant and mechanical fasteners to joints and connections, focusing on the deteriorated tape and cracked collars common in 40-year-old installations. Sealing is often the right follow-up to cleaning on these older systems, where leakage rates of 20 – 30% are typical. Duct Sealing in Westwood Lakes
