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 Kyle, TX
Dryer vent cleaning in Kyle typically costs $89 to $189, and a full duct repair or sealing job runs $350 to $1,450 depending on how much of the flex duct has failed. Most Kyle homes were built between 2005 and 2024, which means their duct systems are now hitting the age where builder-grade flex runs sag, disconnect, and pack with construction debris. If your home is in Plum Creek, Waterleaf, or 6 Oaks and has never had its ducts opened, call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll give you a written price before anything comes off the wall.
Why Kyle Homes Are Different
Kyle is one of the fastest-growing cities in the country, and that growth happened fast enough that entire subdivisions went up in two to four year waves. The result is a housing stock that shares the same duct profiles: DR Horton and Lennar flex-duct layouts, installed quickly, with drywall dust and spray-foam overspray left inside the runs from day one. A home in Post Oak and a home in Bunton Creek built three years apart will often have nearly identical ductwork. When one house on a street hits the 10 to 15 year mark where flex connections start to pull loose, the rest of the street is right behind it.
The climate does not give these systems a break. Air conditioning runs eight or nine months out of the year in Kyle, cycling hundreds of thousands of cubic feet of air through ducts that were never cleaned after construction. Then December through February brings Ashe juniper pollen, one of the most intense pollen seasons in North America, and builder-grade filters simply cannot keep it out of the runs. By the time a homeowner in Waterleaf decides to look inside, the camera usually shows a layer of fine juniper dust packed on top of the original construction debris. That layering is something we see on nearly every first cleaning in Kyle, and it is not something you would find in an older, established city.
Our Main Kyle Services
Two services dominate the calls we take from Kyle homeowners: full air duct cleaning, and HVAC system cleaning that includes the blower, coils, and plenum. Both jobs run into the same Kyle-specific problem, which is that the original construction debris is still in there. Here is what each involves.
Air Duct Cleaning in Kyle
Most first cleanings in Kyle remove material that has been in the ducts since the house was built: drywall dust, sawdust, and overspray from spray-foam insulation. We run a negative-pressure extraction system with a camera in every run, so you see the before and after. Air Duct Cleaning in Kyle covers the full scope, the equipment we use, and written pricing.
HVAC Cleaning in Kyle
The blower wheel, evaporator coil, and plenum collect the same fine dust that the ducts do, and a dirty blower moves less air through a house that already struggles with Texas summers. We clean those components as part of the system scope, not as a separate surprise line item. HVAC Cleaning in Kyle explains what gets cleaned and what it costs.

BeforeAfterDryer Vent Cleaning in Kyle
Dryer vent cleaning in Kyle runs $89 to $189 for a standard single-story run, and the work takes under an hour in most tract homes. What makes Kyle jobs different is the housing era: homes built between 2005 and 2024 in Plum Creek, Waterleaf, and Post Oak were framed quickly, which means the dryer vent path through the wall or attic often has sharp elbows, long runs, and lint traps that were never addressed after construction. Add eight or nine months of air-conditioned indoor air pulling dust into the laundry room, and a vent that was marginal at framing becomes a real restriction within a decade.
The risk is not theoretical. Lint is the leading cause of dryer fires, and a restricted vent also forces the dryer to run longer cycles, which wears out heating elements and drives up the electric bill. Every Dryer Vent Cleaning job we do in Kyle ends with a photo record of the full run, so you can see the lint we pulled out and confirm the vent is clear to the exterior. Here are the specific jobs we handle.
Dryer Vent Inspection
Signs you need it
Clothes take more than one cycle to dry, the laundry room gets hot while the dryer runs, or you can see lint building up around the exterior vent flap.
What it costs in Kyle
A standalone camera inspection runs $49 to $89, and that fee is credited toward cleaning if we find a restriction.
How we do it
We run a camera from the dryer connection to the exterior termination, looking for lint build-up, disconnected joints, and crushed flex sections.
Vent Cleaning
Signs you need it
The dryer has run for two or more years without a vent cleaning, or you have never had the vent opened in a home built before 2024.
What it costs in Kyle
Full vent cleaning runs $89 to $189 depending on run length and access.
How we do it
We use a rotary brush and HEPA-filtered vacuum to pull lint from the entire run, then camera-verify the result and photograph it.
Vent Rerouting
Signs you need it
The vent path runs more than 25 feet, has multiple elbows, or terminates through the roof where lint can collect at the cap.
What it costs in Kyle
Rerouting a vent to a shorter path costs $180 to $380, including new duct and exterior termination.
How we do it
We measure the existing run, calculate the shortest code-compliant path, and replace the duct with rigid or semi-rigid material suited to the route.
What Dryer Vent Cleaning Costs in Kyle
| Item | Typical range in Kyle |
|---|---|
| Camera inspection | $49 - $89 |
| Standard vent cleaning | $89 - $189 |
| Vent rerouting | $180 - $380 |
How often should a dryer vent be cleaned in Kyle?
Every one to two years, and sooner if you dry daily loads. Kyle homes with long vertical or multi-elbow runs collect lint faster than shorter straight runs. We write the camera date on the invoice so you know exactly when the clock started.
Why does my dryer vent fill with lint so fast in Kyle?
Kyle’s eight-to-nine-month AC season pulls dust through the house, and that dust ends up in the dryer’s air path. Houses with long attic runs through second-story framing collect more lint per load than short wall-terminated vents. Call us for a camera inspection and we’ll document what your specific run is holding.
Duct Repair & Sealing in Kyle
Duct repair and sealing in Kyle typically costs $350 to $1,450, and most of what we repair is flex duct that has pulled loose at a connection or sagged between supports. Homes built between 2005 and 2024 in neighborhoods like Plum Creek and Bunton Creek used production builder flex duct, and that material has a real service life. After 10 to 15 years, the inner liner tears, the outer jacket degrades, and the joints that were never sealed properly start leaking conditioned air into the attic.
The telltale sign in Kyle is a room that never gets comfortable: the bedroom over the garage, the back hallway, the upstairs room that was always five degrees warmer. That is not a thermostat problem. It is air leaving the duct before it reaches the register. Our Duct Repair & Sealing work starts with a camera run to find the exact failure, and we photograph every repair before and after. Here are the jobs that make up most of our Kyle work.
Flex Duct Repair
Signs you need it
One room stays warmer than the rest, or you see a collapsed flex run in the attic with visible kinks and sagging between supports.
What it costs in Kyle
Replacing a failed flex run costs $200 to $450 per run, including new duct, straps, and sealed connections.
How we do it
We locate the failed section with a camera, remove it, and hang the replacement with proper support spacing and mastic-sealed connections.
Duct Sealing
Signs you need it
Your energy bill climbs in summer, dust accumulates quickly on registers, or the HVAC system never seems to stop running.
What it costs in Kyle
Whole-system sealing runs $350 to $800, with smaller sections pro-rated from $150.
How we do it
We seal visible joints and plenum connections with mastic, not tape, then pressure-test or camera-verify the sealed runs.
Mastic Sealant
Signs you need it
Joints show dried tape that has peeled, or you can feel air moving around connections when the blower runs.
What it costs in Kyle
Mastic sealing around the plenum and trunk lines costs $150 to $400, depending on access and joint count.
How we do it
We apply mastic paste to every accessible joint, then document the sealed connections with photos for your record.
What Duct Repair & Sealing Costs in Kyle
| Item | Typical range in Kyle |
|---|---|
| Flex duct replacement per run | $200 - $450 |
| Whole-system duct sealing | $350 - $800 |
| Plenum and trunk mastic sealing | $150 - $400 |
Can you fix ducts without replacing the whole system in Kyle?
Yes, and that is what most Kyle homes need. We repair the specific failed runs and seal the surrounding joints. A camera inspection shows exactly which sections are compromised, so you pay for the repair, not a full replacement. Call us for a written scope.
Why did my builder-grade ducts fail so soon?
Production builders installed flex duct quickly, often with hard angles, minimal supports, and dry tape joints. Kyle’s heat and long cooling seasons accelerate the breakdown of the outer jacket and adhesive. We see the same pattern across Plum Creek and Waterleaf, and we photograph the failures so you can see what happened.
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Kyle
Air quality and sanitizing in Kyle typically runs $250 to $850 for whole-system treatment, and the single biggest biological load in this city is Ashe juniper. From December through February, mountain cedar pollen from the Hill Country west of Kyle packs into duct interiors and overwhelms builder-grade filters. Add construction dust from the 2005 to 2024 building wave, and you get a duct environment that holds moisture, supports biological growth, and recirculates allergens every time the AC cycles.
What we treat in Kyle is usually a combination: juniper pollen, drywall dust, and the musty smell that comes from biological material in the plenum and return chase. Our Air Quality & Sanitizing service follows a defined sequence: clean the accessible surfaces first, treat with an EPA-registered product, and then document everything with the same before-and-after camera record we have used since the company’s first job in 2013. Here are the specific jobs.
Mold Treatment
Signs you need it
Musty smell when the AC first kicks on, visible dark staining near a supply register, or respiratory irritation concentrated in one part of the house.
What it costs in Kyle
Surface mold treatment after cleaning runs $300 to $650 per system, with full-system scope priced in writing before work starts.
How we do it
We clean the affected duct surfaces, apply an EPA-registered antimicrobial product, and document the before-and-after with photos.
Odor Removal
Signs you need it
A smell persists after the ducts have been cleaned, or the return chase smells stale even when the system is off.
What it costs in Kyle
Whole-system odor treatment runs $250 to $500, including the plenum and return chase.
How we do it
We locate the odor source with a camera, clean the surfaces, and apply a treatment matched to the specific smell and material.
UV Light Installation
Signs you need it
Recurring biological growth on the coil or plenum, or a household member with persistent respiratory symptoms during AC season.
What it costs in Kyle
UV light installation runs $450 to $850, including the unit, mounting, and electrical connection.
How we do it
We mount a UV light in the plenum or coil housing, wire it to operate with the blower, and photograph the completed installation.
What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Kyle
| Item | Typical range in Kyle |
|---|---|
| Whole-system odor treatment | $250 - $500 |
| Surface mold treatment | $300 - $650 |
| UV light installation | $450 - $850 |
Does sanitizing remove juniper pollen from ducts in Kyle?
Cleaning removes the pollen load; sanitizing addresses what remains on surfaces. In Kyle, we recommend cleaning first, then treating with an EPA-registered product if biological growth is present. The photo record shows you what was removed. Call us for a written scope.
Is UV light worth installing in a Kyle home?
For homes in Kyle with recurring coil mold or persistent allergy symptoms during the long cooling season, a UV light reduces biological growth on surfaces the bulb can reach. It is not a substitute for cleaning. We can show you what the coil looks like before you decide.

We service and install equipment from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Abatement Technologies. Common filters, UV lamps, and vent caps for these brands are stocked in our Austin dispatch inventory, so most Kyle jobs do not wait on parts. Our brands page lists the full equipment roster we run.
