Air Duct Cleaning Company in South Houston, TX
Air duct cleaning in South Houston usually runs between $300 and $600 for a whole home, depending on the number of systems and how clogged the ducts are. South Houston homes are mostly 1940s – 1970s ranch and pier-and-beam builds with original flex duct that’s been patched and re-patched over the decades, and the industrial dust from the ship channel corridor settles into return plenums faster than most homeowners expect. You can reach Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning at (940) 314-5008 to get a written quote for your specific home before any work starts.
Why South Houston Homes Are Different
South Houston’s housing stock is dense, modest, and aging. Most homes along streets near Spencer Highway and Allen-Genoa Road were built between the 1940s and 1970s: single-story ranches and pier-and-beam cottages, many with original central HVAC retrofitted into attics that were never designed for modern air handlers. What that means for ducts is simple. The flex duct has often been spliced, sagged, or crushed in tight attic spaces, and return plenums are frequently undersized for the square footage they serve.
The climate compounds it. South Houston’s air conditioners run nine months a year in hot, humid Gulf Coast air, and attics without proper vapor barriers collect condensation along duct joints. That moisture plus the fine black soot that drifts from the industrial corridors near Spencer Highway means duct systems here load up with a signature layer of particulate many neighboring cities rarely see. We regularly find return plenums coated in fine black dust in these homes, a mix of refinery fallout and years of recirculated air. Cleaning is less a routine chore here and more a reset of the whole system.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main South Houston Services
Most South Houston homeowners call us for two things: a full air duct cleaning that restores airflow through the whole house, and a dryer vent cleaning that clears out lint buildup in older laundry rooms with long vent runs. Both have their own pages with pricing and local details.
Air Duct Cleaning in South Houston
South Houston’s older homes often carry decades of dust, pet hair, and the fine industrial particulate that settles into returns from the surrounding refinery and chemical corridors. We clean the entire system with professional equipment from Rotobrush and Nikro, including supply ducts, returns, plenums, and both sides of the coils. Shoe covers and drop cloths go down before the hoses come in, and every job comes with a written price before we touch a single vent. Pet owners in South Houston appreciate that we use pet-safe product choices wherever they’re available and work around nap schedules with quieter tools. We also photograph the clean-up before leaving. For full details, visit our Air Duct Cleaning in South Houston page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in South Houston
Laundry rooms in South Houston’s pier-and-beam homes often have dryer vent runs that bend through walls and under floors, collecting lint in places you can’t see. That lint traps moisture and restricts airflow, which makes the dryer work harder and creates a genuine fire risk. We clean the full vent run from the dryer to the exterior termination point, check for crushed or damaged sections, and let you know if the vent needs sealing. It’s a calm, thorough process with no upselling at the door. The price is agreed before work starts. Learn more on our dedicated Dryer Vent Cleaning in South Houston page.

Two things push prices up in South Houston specifically. The first is the industrial soot layer near Spencer Highway and Allen-Genoa Road, which often requires a slower pass with our Nikro agitation tools to fully release from duct walls. The second is access: many 1940s – 1970s attics are tight, with low clearances that take more time to work through safely. Whatever the number is, you’ll see it in writing before we begin. No per-vent pricing games, no surprise line items on the invoice afterward.
