Kenmore, King County
Air duct cleaning in Kenmore starts at $525. Square footage, register count and a second furnace or heat pump all move that figure up. Before booking, we ask what prompted the call, because cleaning ducts only makes sense for specific problems, and we would rather tell you that up front than book a visit you do not need.

Kenmore homes heat roughly half with electricity and half with gas. Gas furnaces and heat pumps usually move air through ducts; baseboard or wall heaters do not, and those houses have nothing for us to clean. When a home does have ductwork, it often runs through a crawl space, an attic or between the levels of a split-level.
Census estimates put electricity as the primary heat in about 50.5 percent of Kenmore's occupied homes and utility gas in about 47.3 percent. About 62.7 percent of the city's housing units are single-family detached houses.
Those numbers do not say how the heat is delivered, and that is the first thing we ask on the phone. A furnace or ducted heat pump means there is ductwork to consider; baseboard or wall heaters mean there is none, and we will tell you so.
Every air duct cleaning we do in Kenmore includes:
Smoke coming back into the room, or a smell that won't go? Book the inspection first.
Book nowThe situations that justify a cleaning are concrete: dust drawn into the returns during a remodel, water that reached a duct in a damp crawl space, visible mold at a register, rodents in the system, or a strong odor from a previous occupant. Without one of those, a good filter changed on schedule usually matters more.
Kenmore covers about 6.1 square miles at the north end of Lake Washington, where the Sammamish River meets the lake, and Swamp Creek's lower reaches run through homes and businesses on their way to the river.
Near water, crawl spaces can stay damp for much of the year. Ducts running through a wet crawl space can pick up moisture or mold, and in that case the moisture has to be solved before any cleaning is worth paying for.
We look inside the ducts with a camera and tell you plainly whether cleaning will change anything.
Registers are covered and a high-suction collector is hooked to the system, so the dust we knock loose ends up outside the house rather than back in the ducts.
Brushes and air whips move through each run toward the collector, one branch at a time.
Clean registers go back on, and you get photos plus our advice on filter rating and replacement timing.

This summer the state went further: a drought emergency declared by the governor on the first of August 2026 came with a burn ban for the whole state, lasting through the end of September, after a fourth straight year of drought. Puget Sound Clean Air Agency, which covers King County, notes that wildfires typically come in the warmer, drier summer months, and advises HEPA filtration and a closed-window clean-air room when smoke arrives.
None of that points to duct cleaning. What does help is the right filter in your system, sized correctly and changed on time, and every visit includes a look at where your filter sits and what rating it carries.
Kenmore is a city on the northernmost shore of Lake Washington, where the Sammamish River meets the lake, on Lake Washington, with Ranch and Split Level houses from the 1950s and early 1960s beside newer homes, for a median build year of 1985. We work every part of it — Uplake Terrace included.

Four steps, each one on paper — so you always know what happens next.
Choose a genuine opening on the crew's calendar. Confirmation is immediate.
Liner, crown, cap, flashing and masonry examined in order — each finding photographed.
One document, plain numbers, covering only the work your chimney genuinely needs.
The repair is completed, then handed over with before-and-after photos of every item.
From $525. Bigger homes, many registers or two systems cost more; we confirm the price once we know the layout.
No. Baseboard and wall heaters have no ductwork. If your only ducts are bathroom or kitchen fans, they are a different, smaller job.
Very little. Smoky air leaks into a house from outside; clean ductwork does not stop it. What makes a difference is a better-rated furnace filter that fits its slot and is replaced on schedule.
A $99 on-site inspection, a written quote before any work, and photos of every item we touch.
