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.
Air Duct Cleaning in Everett, MA
Dryer vent cleaning in Everett runs $149-$269 for a standard single-story run, and most jobs take under two hours. What makes Everett different is the housing: thousands of post-WWII pier-and-beam homes built for Boeing and naval yard workers, where dryer vents route through damp crawl spaces that never fully dry. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written price before any work starts.
Why Everett Homes Are Different
Everett sits in a basin that funnels marine air off Port Gardner Bay, and the result is relative humidity above 80% through most of fall, winter, and spring. That moisture doesn’t stay outside. Homes built in the 1940s through 1970s for Boeing and Puget Sound Naval Station workers typically have pier-and-beam or crawl-space foundations, and original galvanized sheet-metal ductwork runs through those persistently damp sub-floor cavities. Condensation forms inside duct runs even when the HVAC system is operating normally. We see it on camera in nearly every crawl-space job north of downtown.
Then comes late summer. Wildfire smoke from eastern Washington and British Columbia pushes into the Snohomish River valley, and residents seal their homes and run HVAC continuously for days. The same ducts that spent nine months collecting biological growth now pull dense fine particulates through every register. That two-season loading pattern, damp for months then smoke for weeks, is the baseline condition for ductwork in this city.
Our Main Everett Services
Most Everett homeowners call us first about two problems: duct systems loaded with years of marine-humidity debris, and HVAC components that need a deeper clean than a standard filter change. Both are covered in detail on their own pages.
Air Duct Cleaning in Everett
Our Air Duct Cleaning in Everett service addresses the full supply and return network, from register to plenum. In Everett’s crawl-space homes, that usually means extracting years of damp-accumulated dust, insulation debris that has migrated into supply lines, and biological growth that formed during the wet season. Every run is photographed before and after, and you receive that photo record as part of the standard job file.

HVAC Cleaning in Everett
HVAC Cleaning in Everett covers the mechanical components beyond the ducts: evaporator coils, blower motors, drain pans, and the plenum interior. In Everett’s humid conditions, coil surfaces collect a biofilm that reduces heat transfer and pushes energy costs up. We document coil condition with before and after photos and clean with professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush and Nikro.

Before
AfterDryer Vent Cleaning in Everett

Dryer vent cleaning in Everett is not a maintenance nicety. It is the direct response to a housing stock where dryer exhaust runs through crawl spaces that hold standing moisture for months at a time. When lint accumulates in a damp vent run, it does not stay fluffy and loose. It mats into a damp, dense plug that restricts airflow, extends drying cycles, and creates the conditions for a dryer fire. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning service removes that risk with documented before and after photos of the entire vent interior.
Dryer Vent Inspection
Signs you need it
Your dryer takes two or three cycles to finish a load that used to dry in one, or you notice a burning smell when the dryer runs.
What it costs in Everett
Inspection alone runs $89-$149, and the price includes a camera record of what the vent looks like before and after any cleaning.
How we do it
We run a camera through the full vent run from dryer hookup to exterior termination, documenting blockages, disconnected sections, and moisture damage on video.
Lint Removal
Signs you need it
Visible lint accumulates around the dryer’s exterior vent hood, or the dryer’s lint trap fills faster than it used to.
What it costs in Everett
Full lint removal from the vent run runs $149-$269 depending on run length and access, and includes the photo record.
How we do it
We use negative-pressure extraction with a HEPA-filtered vacuum to pull compacted lint and moisture-matted debris from the entire run without blowing it into the house.
What Dryer Vent Cleaning Costs in Everett
| Item | Typical range in Everett |
|---|---|
| Inspection | $89-$149 |
| Lint removal | $149-$269 |
| Vent rerouting | $180-$400 |
How often should I clean my dryer vent in Everett?
Every 12 months minimum. Everett’s damp crawl spaces cause lint to compact faster than in drier climates, and a vent that might go two years in Arizona needs annual attention here.
Do you handle dryer vents that run through crawl spaces?
Yes. That is the standard configuration in Everett’s 1940s through 1970s homes, and we route and clean those runs routinely. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written quote.
Duct Repair & Sealing in Everett

Duct repair and sealing in Everett often starts with a camera finding what the homeowner suspected: a seam that has pulled apart in a crawl-space run, or flex duct that has collapsed and is holding standing moisture inside the liner. Near the Snohomish River delta, where lots sit close to a high water table, that failure mode is far more common than it is on the better-drained hillsides of neighboring suburbs. Our Duct Repair & Sealing service puts a written price in your hand before any panel comes off.
Flex Duct Repair
Signs you need it
Rooms at the end of long duct runs stay cold in winter or hot in summer, or you can hear air hissing from a crawl-space vent you cannot see.
What it costs in Everett
Flex duct repair in Everett typically runs $150-$500 depending on the length of damaged duct and whether it can be sectioned or must be replaced.
How we do it
We locate the damaged section by camera, cut out the failed flex duct, and install new R-6 insulated flex duct with mastic-sealed connections at both ends.
Mastic Sealant
Signs you need it
Your HVAC runs constantly but rooms stay uneven, or you find dust trails around register boxes that suggest air is escaping into wall cavities.
What it costs in Everett
Whole-system mastic sealing in Everett runs $400-$1,200, varying with system size and crawl-space access difficulty.
How we do it
We apply water-based mastic sealant to every accessible joint, seam, and connection in the duct system, then test static pressure before and after to document the improvement.
What Duct Repair & Sealing Costs in Everett
| Item | Typical range in Everett |
|---|---|
| Flex duct repair | $150-$500 |
| Metal duct repair | $200-$600 |
| Whole-system mastic sealing | $400-$1,200 |
Can you seal ducts without replacing them?
Yes, in most cases. Mastic sealant closes leaking seams and joints in metal ductwork from the outside, and we document each sealed connection with photos.
Why do Everett crawl-space ducts fail more often?
Standing moisture from the high water table near the Snohomish River delta, combined with poor crawl-space venting, breaks down flex duct liners and corrodes metal seams faster. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written assessment.
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Everett

Air quality work in Everett usually starts with what the camera shows: biological growth on the interior of a return duct, or a layer of fine particulate that built up during the previous summer’s wildfire smoke. Those two contaminants, mold from marine humidity and smoke residue from the river-valley funnel, are the reason Everett homeowners move beyond standard duct cleaning. Our Air Quality & Sanitizing service treats the duct interior and the air passing through it, with documented results.
Mold Treatment
Signs you need it
You smell a musty odor that gets stronger when the HVAC runs, or you have seen dark staining around supply registers in humid months.
What it costs in Everett
Mold treatment for duct interiors in Everett runs $300-$900 depending on system size and the extent of visible growth.
How we do it
We treat accessible duct interior surfaces with an EPA-registered antimicrobial, after source removal and HEPA vacuuming, and photograph the treated surfaces.
Odor Removal
Signs you need it
A smell that persists after cleaning, whether from wildfire smoke residue, past pets, or years of damp crawl-space air drawn into the returns.
What it costs in Everett
Odor removal runs $200-$600, typically as a whole-system treatment with follow-up verification of air quality improvement.
How we do it
We neutralize odor sources at the duct surface using vapor-phase treatment, then run the system to circulate and verify the air quality improvement.
What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Everett
| Item | Typical range in Everett |
|---|---|
| Mold treatment | $300-$900 |
| Bacteria sanitizing | $250-$700 |
| Odor removal | $200-$600 |
Does sanitizing actually remove smoke odor from ducts?
Yes, when the smoke residue is on duct surfaces rather than in soft furnishings. We treat the duct interior and then verify the result before the job closes.
How do I know mold treatment was actually effective?
You receive before and after photos of every treated section, and a written record of what was applied and where. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written scope.

- Marguerite O."Flat price agreed up front, no per-vent add-ons at the end. That was the whole reason I did not call the coupon company."
- Suzanne B."The dryer vent was almost completely blocked with lint. They showed me the photograph and I understood immediately why the dryer had been running twice."
