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 in Woodland, CA
Dryer vent cleaning in Woodland addresses a problem that builds faster here than almost anywhere in Yolo County: agricultural dust. Homes throughout Woodland sit close to active tomato, rice, and wheat fields, and during the July through October harvest, fine crop dust and chaff move into laundry rooms and settle in dryer exhaust runs. Combine that with 1950s and 1960s tract homes where dryer vents often run long, irregular paths through attics, and you get lint accumulation that normal suburban homes simply don’t experience. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written quote before any work starts.
Why Woodland Homes Are Different
Woodland sits at the center of Yolo County’s farmed landscape, and that changes how quickly ducts and vents load with debris. During spring tillage and again from August through October, combines and field-haul trucks along County Road 98 and the city’s western and southern edges generate dense clouds of fine agricultural dust. That dust enters return-air grilles, settles in plenums, and packs into dryer exhaust lines at a rate that surprises homeowners who moved here from Sacramento or Davis.
The housing stock compounds the problem. Much of Woodland’s residential core is 1950s through 1970s tract housing with original or once-replaced forced-air duct systems. Those ducts were often undersized by modern standards and run through unconditioned attics that hit extreme summer temperatures. Downtown, late-19th and early-20th century homes had ducted HVAC retrofitted into structures originally built for wall furnaces or radiators, which creates irregular duct routing and hard-to-access runs that hold debris in places a standard cleaning can miss. Winter Tule fog adds moisture into dust-packed ducts, raising the risk of microbial growth inside duct liners.
Our Main Woodland Services
Most Woodland homeowners reach out for one of two jobs: a full system air duct cleaning, or a deeper HVAC cleaning that includes the blower, coil, and cabinet. Both are documented, and both start with a written price.
Air Duct Cleaning in Woodland
This is a full negative-pressure cleaning of every duct run in the home: supply and return lines, main trunk, and plenum. In Woodland, we routinely find 2 to 3 inches of gray agricultural dust at the first elbow past the return grille, especially in homes on the west and south edges of town. Air Duct Cleaning in Woodland walks through the full scope, the equipment we use, and what the photo record looks like when we’re done.
HVAC Cleaning in Woodland
HVAC cleaning goes further than the duct runs: we pull the blower wheel, clean the evaporator coil, and clear the condensate pan and line. In Woodland’s long summer run cycle, a dust-caked blower drops airflow and forces the AC to work harder from June through September. HVAC Cleaning in Woodland covers the full job, including coil cleaning and cabinet sanitizing.

BeforeAfterDryer Vent Cleaning in Woodland
Dryer vent cleaning in Woodland is the highest-value service we perform here, because the local conditions stack against dryer exhaust systems. The tomato harvest running late July through October pushes fine field dust into laundry rooms, and older tract homes often vent dryers through attics or long side-wall runs that trap lint quickly. A restricted dryer vent means longer dry cycles, higher lint accumulation, and a real fire risk. We handle the full scope through our Dryer Vent Cleaning process, and every job ends with a before-and-after photo record of the full run.
Dryer Vent Inspection
Signs you need it
Clothes take more than one cycle to dry completely, or the laundry room feels humid while the dryer runs.
What it costs in Woodland
A Dryer Vent Inspection in Woodland runs $85 to $150, depending on run length and access.
How we do it
We scope the full vent run with a camera, measure airflow at the exterior termination, and photograph every section before recommending any cleaning.
Vent Cleaning
Signs you need it
Visible lint at the exterior vent hood, or a dryer that shuts itself off mid-cycle.
What it costs in Woodland
Vent Cleaning in Woodland runs $138 to $219, based on the run’s length and the number of elbows.
How we do it
We run a rotary brush and negative-pressure extraction through the full vent path, then photograph the interior walls at the end to confirm the surface is clear.
Lint Removal
Signs you need it
You find lint around the dryer’s lint trap housing, or the trap itself no longer sits flush when you reinsert it.
What it costs in Woodland
Lint Removal in Woodland runs $129 to $199, depending on whether the buildup is inside the dryer cabinet, the transition hose, or the wall run.
How we do it
We clear the transition hose, the dryer’s internal lint chamber, and the full exhaust run, then document removal with before and after photos.
Vent Rerouting
Signs you need it
Your dryer vents through the roof, or the existing run includes flexible plastic or corrugated foil rather than rigid metal.
What it costs in Woodland
Vent Rerouting in Woodland runs $245 to $399, depending on the route distance and wall penetrations required.
How we do it
We cut a new termination path, install rigid metal duct with the fewest elbows possible, and seal every joint with mastic.
Bird Guard Installation
Signs you need it
You hear birds or scratching at the vent, or you find nesting material near the exterior hood.
What it costs in Woodland
Bird Guard Installation in Woodland runs $75 to $169, depending on the hood type and whether the existing termination needs replacement.
How we do it
We install a louvered guard over the termination and verify airflow with a pressure reading before we leave.

Is dryer vent cleaning really necessary every year in Woodland?
In Woodland, yes, for most homes. Agricultural dust fills vent runs far faster than in neighboring cities, and homes with roof vents or long runs clog fastest. We recommend annual cleaning, and the photo record shows exactly what you’re paying for.
How do I know the vent is actually clean?
You’ll receive a before-and-after photo record of the full run. If you can’t see the difference, call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll come back under the 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Duct Repair & Sealing in Woodland
Duct repair and sealing in Woodland addresses a failure most homeowners don’t notice until their energy bill climbs. Homes from the 1950s through 1970s often have duct joints sealed with old tape or nothing at all, and years of Yolo County dust and summer heat cycles cause leaks at every connection. We find the leaks, seal them, and document the work through our Duct Repair & Sealing process.
Duct Sealing
Signs you need it
You notice rooms that never reach the thermostat temperature, or visible dust streaks around return grilles.
What it costs in Woodland
Duct Sealing in Woodland runs $350 to $700, depending on the number of runs and accessibility.
How we do it
We pressurize the system, find every leak point with a smoke puffer, and seal joints with mastic, not tape.
Flex Duct Repair
Signs you need it
You see crushed or torn flex duct in the attic, or airflow from a specific register drops noticeably.
What it costs in Woodland
Flex Duct Repair in Woodland runs $150 to $350 per section, depending on the run length and access.
How we do it
We cut out the damaged section, splice in new flex, and pull it taut with no sags or sharp bends.
Metal Duct Repair
Signs you need it
You find rust, separated seams, or detached hangers on exposed metal duct in the garage or crawl space.
What it costs in Woodland
Metal Duct Repair in Woodland runs $200 to $450 per section, based on the gauge and seam work required.
How we do it
We either patch the section or replace it entirely, then seal every seam with mastic and re-secure all hangers.
Duct Insulation
Signs you need it
Rooms over unconditioned attics feel warm in summer even when the AC runs, or condensation forms on duct exteriors.
What it costs in Woodland
Duct Insulation in Woodland runs $2.00 to $4.50 per linear foot, including wrap and seam sealing.
How we do it
We wrap exposed runs in rated insulation, seal the longitudinal seams, and photograph the finished coverage.
Mastic Sealant
Signs you need it
You see cracked or peeled tape on duct connections, or the system’s static pressure exceeds manufacturer spec.
What it costs in Woodland
Mastic Sealant in Woodland runs $250 to $500 for a full system, depending on the number of access points.
How we do it
We brush mastic over every joint and penetration, then retest pressure to confirm the leakage dropped.
What Duct Repair & Sealing Costs in Woodland
| Item | Typical range in Woodland |
|---|---|
| Duct Sealing | $350 - $700 |
| Flex Duct Repair | $150 - $350 per section |
| Metal Duct Repair | $200 - $450 per section |
How do I know if my ducts are actually leaking?
Watch for rooms that never match the thermostat, high summer bills, and dust streaks near registers. We confirm leaks with a pressure test and show you the leak points before sealing anything.
Will duct sealing actually lower my energy bill?
Yes, when the leakage is significant. Sealing the supply side keeps conditioned air in the ducts, not the attic. We document the pressure drop improvement with numbers, not promises. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written scope.
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Woodland
Air quality and sanitizing in Woodland targets what happens after months of agricultural dust and Tule fog moisture settle inside the system. When fine crop dust packs into duct liners and winter fog introduces sustained humidity, mold and bacteria can take hold in places a basic cleaning won’t reach. Our Air Quality & Sanitizing service treats those surfaces and gives you documentation of what was found and what was applied.
Mold Treatment
Signs you need it
You see dark staining on duct registers, or a musty odor returns within weeks of cleaning.
What it costs in Woodland
Mold Treatment in Woodland runs $450 to $1,200, depending on the affected area’s size and accessibility.
How we do it
We apply an EPA-registered antimicrobial to affected surfaces, then photograph the treated area before and after.
Bacteria Sanitizing
Signs you need it
Household illness cycles repeatedly, or the system’s condensate pan shows slime and buildup.
What it costs in Woodland
Bacteria Sanitizing in Woodland runs $350 to $800, including coil and pan treatment.
How we do it
We fog the supply side and treat the coil and pan with an antimicrobial, then document the application.
Odor Removal
Signs you need it
The AC emits a stale or damp smell when it cycles on, especially after the first fall rain.
What it costs in Woodland
Odor Removal in Woodland runs $250 to $500, depending on whether the source is microbial, combustion, or general buildup.
How we do it
We find the source, remove it physically where possible, and treat the surrounding surfaces with a neutralizer.
UV Light Installation
Signs you need it
Mold or bacteria growth keeps recurring after cleaning, or someone in the home has severe allergies.
What it costs in Woodland
UV Light Installation in Woodland runs $450 to $950, installed at the coil or plenum.
How we do it
We mount a Honeywell UV lamp so it shines on the coil and drain pan, the places where growth starts.
Air Purifier Install
Signs you need it
Household dust returns within days of cleaning, or a family member reacts to airborne particulates.
What it costs in Woodland
Air Purifier Install in Woodland runs $550 to $1,200, including the unit and full integration.
How we do it
We install a whole-home purifier in the supply plenum and wire it to run with the blower.
What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Woodland
| Item | Typical range in Woodland |
|---|---|
| Mold Treatment | $450 - $1,200 |
| Bacteria Sanitizing | $350 - $800 |
| UV Light Installation | $450 - $950 |
Will sanitizing actually remove mold, or just hide it?
When we treat with an EPA-registered antimicrobial on a cleaned surface, it kills active growth. We photograph the area before and after, so you can see what was treated. If staining remains, that’s cosmetic, not active.
How long does the UV light keep the coil clean?
A correctly positioned UV lamp at the coil keeps that surface clear while the bulb holds intensity, usually 12 to 18 months. We document the install and the bulb’s placement in the photo record. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written price.
