Fast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across New Orleans
If your ducts are moving musty air through a raised cottage in Mid-City or a shotgun off the Marigny, you’re in the right place. We handle air duct cleaning for homes and small commercial spaces throughout New Orleans, and we know why ductwork here behaves differently than it does anywhere else. Call (833) 749-5104. We answer 24/7. Fast dispatch from 7am to 7pm, Sunday through Friday.
Why New Orleans Homeowners Call New Orleans Duct Cleaning for Air Duct Cleaning
Ductwork in New Orleans doesn’t get a break. The AC runs most of the year, which keeps the inside of your ducts damp and warm – the condition mildew likes best. That’s the first thing we ask about when someone calls from New Orleans: how the system has been running, and what the house smells like when it first kicks on.
Our technicians have up to 14 years of experience, and that experience shows up in the equipment we bring. Every job gets Rotobrush rotary brush agitation plus Nikro HEPA capture – both steps, every time, not one or the other. Abatement Technologies air filtration equipment does the contaminant capture on jobs that need a remediation-grade standard. We clean ductwork only, so the job isn’t an afterthought between furnace calls.
We’ve built a strong local reputation in New Orleans by fixing what other outfits only report: crushed runs, disconnected joints, duct breaches. When we find one, we can seal it at the same appointment instead of handing you a list of referrals.

Air Duct Inspection in New Orleans
Air Duct Inspection in New Orleans starts with a camera walk-through of the system, and it usually reveals more than the homeowner expected. Video inspection shows crushed runs behind original plaster walls, disconnected flex joints in attic retrofits, and debris sitting in exposed crawlspace duct runs of raised homes. A typical inspection runs $150-$350, and the written estimate tells you what a full clean and any repair would cost.
What Video Inspection Shows
We run a camera through supply and return runs to see the interior condition before anything is touched. That footage is what tells us whether standard source removal under negative pressure will do the job or whether the run needs custom agitation. You see the same picture we do.
When to Book an Inspection
Book one when the house smells musty the moment the AC starts, when dust settles again within days of cleaning, or when a renovation just wrapped in Mid-City or the Marigny and debris may have dropped into the system. An inspection answers the question before you pay for a full clean.
Residential Air Duct Cleaning in New Orleans
Residential Air Duct Cleaning in New Orleans has to handle the way these houses were actually built. Most homes are raised Creole cottages, shotgun houses, or camelbacks, and the ductwork was retrofitted later into attics, crawlspaces, or wall cavities – often as short runs and odd angles of flexible duct. Where a truck-mounted vacuum can’t hook up cleanly, we use custom agitation tools with HEPA filtration to clear decades of accumulation, then verify airflow with a blower motor check and a MERV-rated filter upgrade.
A typical whole-system residential clean in New Orleans runs $450-$900. Larger camelbacks with multiple added zones, or homes where a breach needs sealing, can push toward $1,200. The written estimate sets the final price – one flat price per system, agreed before work starts, with before-and-after photos of your own ducts.
Sealing the Breach, Not Just Cleaning Around It
Clean ducts with a crushed run still can’t move air. We identify and repair breaches, disconnects, and deteriorated flexible runs on the same visit, so the clean actually changes how the house breathes. Guardsman-grade protective products go on as part of the finish.
Upgrading Your Filtration While We’re There
We supply and install Honeywell and Aprilaire whole-home air quality systems, so you aren’t sourcing a second contractor after the clean. A MERV-rated filter upgrade is often the cheapest real improvement to indoor air in a damp New Orleans house.
Trusted Brands We Service in New Orleans
We work on systems built around the brands New Orleans homeowners already have: Honeywell and Aprilaire filtration and air quality controls, plus the ductwork behind them. We don’t claim to stock parts or run a warehouse; what we do is come equipped with Rotobrush and Nikro machinery so the work gets done in one visit, on the schedule you booked. If your system uses a Honeywell control board or an Aprilaire dehumidifier tied into the ductwork, mention it when you call so we bring the right agitation tools. One flat price per system, agreed before work starts.

AfterCommon Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in New Orleans Homes
- Crushed or disconnected flex in wall cavities. Shotgun houses and Creole cottages often have flexible runs pinched behind plaster during a past renovation. Negative pressure alone can’t fix a collapsed run – it needs to be found by camera and sealed.
- Mold and mildew inside damp ducts. Year-round AC use and high humidity feed biological growth on duct liners. This is why cleaning here needs HEPA filtration and antimicrobial treatment, not just a wipe-down.
- Construction debris in exposed crawlspace runs. Raised homes leave crawlspace ducts open to dust, pests, and renovation grit. Mid-City and Marigny homes in particular turn up debris that demands specialized agitation tools.
- Flood and storm moisture intrusion. Seasonal storms and past flooding can leave debris and moisture in duct systems. If a home has been through water, the duct interior deserves a camera look before anyone calls it clean.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in New Orleans
Because the duct runs here are frequently crushed or disconnected behind walls, and cleaning a broken run doesn’t restore airflow. A camera inspection finds the breach; sealing it is what actually fixes the problem. Call (833) 749-5104 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
High humidity plus year-round AC use keeps ducts damp, which encourages mold and mildew on duct liners. That’s why we pair Rotobrush agitation with Nikro HEPA capture and antimicrobial treatment rather than a basic vacuum. Call (833) 749-5104 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
Expect a camera walk-through of the supply and return runs, including the short, odd-angled flex sections common in shotgun retrofits. You’ll see the footage and get a written recommendation on cleaning and any repair. Call (833) 749-5104 for an exact quote – estimates are free.

Fast dispatch from 7am to 7pm, Sunday through Friday, with no Saturday service. Call (833) 749-5104 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
