Why Amesbury Homeowners Choose Kealey's
Choosing an air duct cleaner usually comes down to one thing: trust. Many of the lowest advertised prices grow once the work is underway, which leaves a lot of homeowners wary of the service altogether. Kealey's was built to remove that doubt with a clear price before we begin, photo-documented results, and no upselling. Amesbury homeowners notice the difference.
From our own jobs in the area: a lot of Amesbury's housing stock is older, and plenty of those duct systems have never had a proper cleaning. When a home has not been done in years, the buildup we pull from supply and return lines is real, and the before-and-after photos make it obvious. That is exactly why we document every visit instead of asking you to take our word for it.
Family-Owned and Local
Brian Kealey started the business in nearby Salisbury in 1993. His son Keenan works alongside him today. The person who answers the phone is the person who shows up. No franchise, no call center, no rotating crews.
Engineer-Founded Process
Brian holds a degree in mechanical engineering, and it shows in how each system is inspected and cleaned. Truck-mounted vacuums, rotary brushes, and a defined process mean the result is consistent from one Amesbury home to the next.
Upfront Price, No Upsells
You see the price before we start, you see the work in before-and-after photos, and you get a clean home back. No add-ons mid-job. No surprises on the invoice. That is the bar, every time.
What Does an Air Duct Cleaning in Amesbury Actually Involve?
Our process is built around accountability. You see what we find, what we remove, and what we leave behind at every step. Most Amesbury homes take three to four hours from setup to walk-through, depending on system size and how much buildup is in there.
Inspect and Document
We start with a full visual inspection of your supply and return system and photograph the starting condition, so you can see exactly what we are working with before anything is touched.
Truck-Mounted Vacuum and Rotary-Brush Clean
We pair commercial truck-mounted vacuums with rotary brushes and power-whip tools to scrub every line, register, and trunk in the system, not just the first few feet inside the vent.
Verify and Walk You Through
We re-inspect, capture the after photos, and walk you through what we cleaned. You see the documented results before we pack up and leave.

Real Results, Documented on Every Job
Every job in Amesbury gets the same treatment: photo proof of the starting point and the final result. No vague "removes up to 99%" claims, just images of your own ductwork before and after.
The Same Father-and-Son Team on Every Job
Brian and Keenan Kealey personally handle the work. There is no third-party crew at your door, no different face each visit, and no commission structure pushing a sales pitch. It is part of why our reviews tend to name the people who came, not just the company. People remember who was in their home, and whether they left it cleaner than they found it.

Improving Indoor Air Quality in Historic Amesbury Homes
Amesbury grew up around its mills, and a lot of the homes near the Millyard and the older neighborhoods have been standing for a century or more. Their heating and cooling was often added or reworked over the decades, and the ductwork can hold years of settled dust, pollen, and pet dander. Every time the system runs, some of that gets pushed back into the rooms your family breathes in.
Clearing it out at the source means less of it recirculating. Parents of kids with allergies or asthma often tell us the house feels less dusty and easier to breathe in after a cleaning, especially in older homes that had never been done. We cannot promise a cure for anyone's symptoms, and we will not pretend to. What we can do is remove the buildup that keeps circulating, show you the before-and-after photos, and let the cleaner air speak for itself.
How Do You Know Your Amesbury Home Needs Duct Cleaning?
The EPA does not recommend cleaning ducts on a fixed routine just for the sake of it. It makes sense when there is visible buildup, mold, or a reason the system is moving dust through your home. Here is what tends to flag a home in our area.

Amesbury Air Duct Cleaning: Common Questions
How often should air ducts be cleaned in an Amesbury home?
For most Amesbury homes, every three to five years is a reasonable schedule. Pets, allergies, recent renovations, or older homes with original ductwork can shorten that interval. We give you an honest read after the inspection rather than push a one-size-fits-all answer.
How long does an air duct cleaning take?
Most homes take three to four hours from setup to walk-through, depending on system size and how much buildup we find. We give you a time estimate before we start so you can plan your day.
Do I need to be home during the cleaning?
Yes, we ask that someone be home so we can walk you through the inspection findings, explain what we discover, and review the before-and-after photos with you before we leave. That transparency is part of how we work.
Do you work on older Amesbury homes with retrofitted systems?
Regularly. A good share of homes in and around Amesbury are older, and many have had heating and cooling added or reworked over the years. We inspect first, protect the space, and clean what is actually there, so an older or tighter system gets the same careful, documented treatment as a newer one.
What sets Kealey's apart from other Amesbury duct cleaners?
Three things. We are family-owned, founded by a mechanical engineer in 1993, not a franchise. We document every job with before-and-after photos so you see exactly what was done. And we hold flat, upfront pricing without the upsells the industry has become known for.
Can you clean my dryer vent during the same visit?
Yes. While we are in your home for the air duct cleaning, we can handle dryer vent cleaning in the same appointment. Many Amesbury homeowners book both together. Mention it when you schedule and we will plan the time.
