How much should air duct cleaning cost for a 775 sq. foot condo?

Question

It's 775 sq. ft. with 5 vents total. On the 4th floor in the Denver metro area.

I was just quoted $500. That seems extremely high. Anybody know how much is standard?

Answer 1

That is super high.  I got something similar for a 2000 sq foot home for around 200.  However, does the person need to be outdoors on the 4th floor or something?  I would think they could do it all from inside the home.  They just do some brushing, air blowing, and that's about it, the equipment isn't super high tech, I would guess it should take them around 2 hours, and I think 200 would be reasonable.

Get another estimate.

Answer 2

I agree that is very high.  I have 12 vents in my 2,000 sq. ft. house and it cost me $675, which included carpet and basement cleaning.  The initial quote the same company gave me was $2,100; I had them bring it down partly by getting rid of superfluous services and partly just hard negotiating.  

Good luck!

Answer 3

$200 to $300 should be the price range for this project.

Let me know if you have any questions,
