Professional duct cleaning goes beyond the surface
Our duct cleaning service is designed to provide a more complete clean, with attention given to the key parts of your home’s duct system. This includes all of the registers, both supply and return, on one HVAC system.
Our team will explain what’s included, complete the cleaning throughout the system and review the work with you when we’re finished. Duct cleaning is one of our indoor air quality services, alongside HRV and ERV ventilation and whole-home air purifiers, and many homeowners pair it with furnace maintenance. We clean ductwork for homes in London and surrounding communities.
Optional Dryer Vent Cleaning: Dryer vent cleaning may be available as an add-on depending on the material, routing, condition, and accessibility of the vent.

How to prepare for duct cleaning
A little preparation before your appointment helps our team access your ductwork and complete the cleaning efficiently. You don’t need to do much, but there are a few things worth taking care of before we arrive.
Clear access to vents and registers
Make sure vents and registers throughout your home are accessible. Move small furniture, rugs or other items that may be blocking them so our technicians can easily reach each area.
Make room around your furnace
Our team will need access to your furnace and HVAC equipment during the cleaning. Clear away stored items or anything else that could make the area difficult to reach.
Plan for pets
Duct cleaning involves technicians moving throughout the home and using professional equipment. Keep pets in a safe, comfortable area away from the work while the cleaning is underway.
Allow time for the appointment
Most residential duct cleanings take approximately 2–4 hours, depending on the size of your home and HVAC system. Plan for someone to be available during the appointment.

There isn’t one duct-cleaning schedule that’s right for every home. Pets, renovations, visible dust buildup and how long it has been since the last cleaning all affect when it makes sense. Many homeowners book duct cleaning after moving in, finishing a renovation or noticing buildup inside their vents. Not sure yet? Tell us about your home and we’ll help you decide whether it’s worth doing now: contact our team.
Donaldson’s whole-home duct cleaning includes the supply duct lines, return duct lines, main trunk lines and accessible vents and registers for one HVAC system, with no per-vent pricing. Professional equipment removes accumulated dust, hair and debris throughout the duct system, and we walk you through the completed work. Dryer vent cleaning can be added. Keep it cleaner afterwards with regular furnace maintenance.
Most residential duct-cleaning appointments take about 2–4 hours, depending on the size of your home and the layout and complexity of the HVAC system. Plan for someone to be home during the appointment, clear furniture and rugs away from vents and registers, and make room around your furnace so our team can reach the equipment. When you’re ready, book your duct cleaning.
Duct cleaning removes accumulated dust, pet hair and debris from inside your ductwork, which can help reduce material being recirculated from the system. However, ductwork is only one source of household dust. Regular filter changes, HVAC maintenance and routine household cleaning also play a role. For what builds up in there and why, read what’s in your ductwork.
Yes. Dryer vent cleaning is available as an optional add-on to duct cleaning for homes in London and surrounding communities. Whether we can clean your vent depends on its material, routing, condition and accessibility, so mention your dryer vent when you book and we’ll let you know what to expect before we arrive. Book duct cleaning with a dryer vent add-on.
The cost depends on your home’s HVAC setup and whether you add services such as dryer vent cleaning. Donaldson prices whole-home duct cleaning without per-vent pricing, so you aren’t charged register by register, and you’ll get upfront pricing before any work begins. For current pricing based on your home and system, contact our team.
Duct cleaning can be worthwhile when there’s noticeable buildup inside the system, after renovation work, when moving into a home, or when it has been a long time since the ductwork was cleaned. The goal is to remove accumulated dust, hair and debris from parts of the duct system that household cleaning can’t reach. For other ways to improve the air you breathe, see our indoor air quality services.
