Whole-system duct and dryer vent check with before-and-after photos - you see exactly what came out of your vents
That "$99 whole-house special" is a bait ad - the real number appears once they are in your hallway, or the "clean" is a shop-vac at the register. We photograph the inside of your ducts before and after instead.

Why Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning Is Clermont’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
Clermont homeowners call us because we show up with the right equipment and a price that’s already on paper.

Every booking through Cardinal carries The Relay Standard: a live trackable arrival window, before-and-after photos of the actual vent, and a digital invoice you can pay from your phone.

The 365-Day Done Right Promise backs every dryer vent cleaning and repair we do in Clermont. If the work isn’t right within a full year, we return and correct it at no charge. That’s not a limited window for select jobs. It’s every job, without exception.
Dryer Vent Repair in Clermont
Dryer Vent Repair in Clermont usually means one of a few things: a damaged or disconnected transition hose behind the dryer, crushed or separated rigid duct inside a wall chase, a failed vent cap outside, or a run that was never installed to code in the first place. In the two-story homes off Hancock Road and the newer builds south of SR 50, we regularly see vent runs of 15 – 25 feet with multiple elbows. Every extra elbow is a place lint collects and airflow drops. A typical repair here runs $89 – $220 depending on access, and the full scope is written before work starts.
Common Repairs We Handle
We replace cracked vent caps, reroute runs that vent into attics or soffits instead of outside, and fix crushed sections behind stacked laundry closets. If the run has multiple elbows and you’re noticing long dry times, we may recommend a reroute with solid rigid duct instead of flexible foil. That’s a permanent fix, not a patch.
When Repair Beats Cleaning
If your vent was cleaned recently and the dryer still takes two cycles, the problem is often structural. A disconnected pipe inside the wall, a bird nest at the cap, or a run that sags in the middle will keep collecting lint no matter how often it’s cleaned. We’ll run a camera inspection first to see what’s actually happening before recommending anything.
Dryer Vent Cleaning Company in Clermont
As a Dryer Vent Cleaning Company serving Clermont, we do more than vacuum the lint trap. We clean the full run: the transition hose behind the appliance, every elbow, the vertical riser if you have one, and the termination point outside. In Clermont’s 1990s-era subdivisions like those around Kings Ridge and Lost Lake, the runs are often short and straight, 6 – 10 feet out the back wall. Those can be cleaned thoroughly in under an hour. In the larger tract homes off Schofield Road or the new builds along the south side of the city, runs are longer, tighter, and need more time and tooling. A full cleaning here runs $139 – $289 for a single system, and that’s one flat price per system, not per vent.
Our Process, Step by Step
We start with a camera inspection to see the entire run. Then we hook a HEPA-filtered vacuum to the vent’s exterior opening and create negative pressure, which means every bit of loosened lint gets pulled toward the vacuum, not blown into your laundry room. We agitate the duct walls from the inside with a Rotobrush system, clear out the debris, and re-inspect with the camera to document the clean run.
Before-and-After Proof, Every Time
You get photos of the inside of your vent before and after. Real photos of your actual ducts, not stock images. That’s how you know the work was done, and it’s part of The Relay Standard we hold every Clermont job to.
Trusted Brands We Service in Clermont
We maintain and clean vent systems connected to all major dryer brands found in Clermont homes, including Whirlpool, Samsung, LG, GE, Maytag, and Electrolux. We also service and install Guardsman vent caps and stock Rotobrush-compatible brush heads for different duct diameters. If your previous cleaner recommended equipment from Nikro or Aprilaire, we’re familiar with it and can work within that setup. Most common replacement parts for Clermont homes are stocked on our service trucks, so we’re not running back and forth to a supply house.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Clermont Homes
- Long multi-elbow runs in newer two-story builds. Homes off Hancock Road and in the newer communities south of SR 50 often have dryer vents that travel 15 – 25 feet with two or three elbows. Lint compacts past the second elbow where a basic vacuum can’t reach. A camera inspection before cleaning tells us what we’re up against.
- Short 1990s runs that lull homeowners into complacency. Older Clermont subdivisions like Kings Ridge have short straight runs that rarely clog catastrophically. But the vent cap screens on those homes rust and trap lint at the exit point. We see that constantly.
- Birds and lizards nesting at the termination point. Clermont’s warm climate and proximity to Lake Minneola and the Palatlakaha chain make exterior vent caps attractive to birds and wildlife. A missing or damaged cap flap is an open invitation. We install bird guards on nearly every job where the cap faces open space.
- Flexible foil or vinyl transition hose behind stacked laundry closets. In many Clermont floor plans, the laundry area is tight against an interior wall. The transition hose gets kinked and crushed, which chokes airflow before the vent run even begins. We replace these with rigid or semi-rigid connectors rated for dryer exhaust.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Clermont
Every 12 – 18 months for most Clermont homes, but it genuinely depends on your run. Short straight 1990s-subdivision runs can go longer between cleanings without issue. The long multi-elbow runs in newer two-story homes off Hancock Road build up compacted lint faster and often need attention every 10 – 14 months. If you have a household that does daily laundry, err on the earlier side. Call (737) 727-2314 and we’ll help you figure out where your home falls, no pressure either way.
One flat price per system. You get a written price before we start, and it covers the entire vent run from the dryer connection to the outside wall, including all elbows and the termination point. We never charge per vent, per register, or per foot. In Clermont, that flat price runs $139 – $289 for most homes. If a camera inspection finds a repair is needed, we quote that separately before touching anything.
Because the real blockage was never removed. A quick cleaning that only clears the transition hose and lint trap leaves the compacted lint deeper in the run, which is exactly where fires start. In the two-story homes we service off Hancock Road, the second elbow is a common choke point. We clean the full run and document it with before-and-after camera photos. If your dryer still struggles after our cleaning, we come back under the 365-Day Done Right Promise and correct it at no charge.
We don’t service those brands as equipment, but we use them in the field. Rotobrush is the agitation system we run through the duct to break up packed lint. Nikro provides the HEPA-filtered negative-pressure vacuum that captures it. Guardsman makes the vent caps and bird guards we commonly install. If you’re asking whether we’re professional-grade, the answer is yes, and the equipment list is one reason our Clermont customers see actual before-and-after proof instead of a foggy promise.
We schedule by live arrival window, not by a “same-day or nothing” promise. When you book, you get a trackable time window via The Relay Standard, so you know when the tech will be there. A live person answers the phone 24/7 at (737) 727-2314, and we’ll find the soonest honest slot for your Clermont home, usually within one to three days depending on the season and your location.
