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.

AfterFast, Reliable Dryer Vent Cleaning Across Green Acres
Dryer vent cleaning in Green Acres typically runs $149 – $289 for a standard single-family home, and the job takes about 90 minutes from setup to final photos. That price stays flat once we see the run, even when the vent climbs to the roof – no per-foot add-ons, no surprise line items. If you live in Green Acres and your dryer is taking two cycles to finish a load, call (737) 727-2314. We’ll walk you through what to expect before anyone steps through your door.
Green Acres’ housing stock shapes how dryer vents behave. Many homes here are older, single-story tract builds where the dryer sits in a hallway closet or interior laundry alcove, and the vent run stretches much farther than a short side-wall flap. That longer pathway means lint collects in places you can’t see from the exterior, and the only way to know the whole run is clear is to look. Our team does exactly that – a full-length camera inspection on every cleaning, not just the first few feet. You get the footage. You own the proof.
Why Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning Is Green Acres’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
Omar Haddad leads our Green Acres service team, and he’s built the operation around one frustrating pattern we kept hearing from homeowners: a dryer vent cleaning that took forty minutes, touched only the visible section, and left the real blockage untouched. Omar’s answer is a written price before any work starts and photographic proof after. If the photos don’t show a clean run from dryer to termination point, the job isn’t done. That standard is why repeat bookings in Green Acres tend to come from neighbors referring neighbors.
We’re part of the Relay Home Co. family, founded 2005, and every Green Acres appointment runs on The Relay Standard. That means you get a live trackable arrival window, the technician’s name before they arrive, and a digital invoice you can pay from your phone. Our techs are background-checked and uniformed. The equipment is professional-grade – Dryer Vent Cleaning rigs built around Nikro HEPA vacuums and Rotobrush rotary brush systems, not a truck-mounted shop vac. You’ll know the difference when you see the before-and-after photos on the tablet.
We answer the phone. A live person, 24/7, no voicemail loop. That matters in Green Acres because dryer vent issues don’t follow business hours, and homeowners shouldn’t have to leave three messages to schedule a cleaning or ask a question about a quote.
Dryer Vent Installation in Green Acres
Dryer Vent Installation in Green Acres is a job we handle regularly because so many original vent runs were built with flexible foil duct that crushes, sags, and traps lint. Whether you’re moving a laundry setup, replacing a damaged run, or correcting code issues on a new purchase, we install smooth rigid metal duct from the dryer to the exterior termination, sealed properly and supported along the full length. A typical Green Acres installation runs $199 – $449 depending on run length and whether roof access is involved. The price is written before we begin.
Full Length Replacement for Roof-Terminated Runs
When the vent terminates at the roof, the entire run has to be evaluated, not just the section behind the dryer. We camera the existing duct first, show you what’s there, and quote based on what we find. No surprises when the ladder comes out.
Correction of Crushed or Kinked Flex Duct
Flexible foil duct behind the dryer is a common find in Green Acres homes, and it’s almost always crushed from being pushed against the wall. We replace it with a rigid section that won’t collapse, and we reangle the connection so future movement doesn’t re-crush it.
Dryer Vent Repair in Green Acres
Dryer Vent Repair in Green Acres most often involves reconnecting a separated joint, replacing a torn or damaged section, or fixing a termination cap that’s no longer sealed. We also see runs where the flexible duct behind the unit has been crushed so badly that airflow is down by more than half. Repair pricing for Green Acres homes typically falls between $99 and $249 for targeted fixes, and a full visible-run repair can run up to $349. Every repair carries a written guarantee, and if the repair fails within 365 days, Omar personally schedules a return visit at no charge.
Roof Cap and Termination Repairs
A cracked or missing roof cap lets rain, birds, and debris into the duct run. We replace caps with proper backdraft-rated terminations and add bird guards where needed, so the repair holds through Green Acres’ winter rain and spring nesting season.
Reconnection After Displacement
Dryer movement, house settling, or poor original installation can pull a joint apart behind the wall or in the attic run. We reconnect, seal, and verify the full run with the camera before we call it done.
Trusted Brands We Service in Green Acres
We work on every major dryer brand you’ll find in Green Acres homes – Whirlpool, LG, Samsung, Maytag, GE, Electrolux – and the ductwork behind them. Our service trucks carry rigid metal duct sections, proper terminations, and Guardsman and Aprilaire filtration components, so most repairs and installations are completed in a single visit without waiting on parts. For cleaning, we run Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro HEPA-vacuum extraction, which means the loosened debris goes straight into the vacuum, not back into your laundry room. If your vent is being cleaned, repaired, or replaced in Green Acres, the tools and parts are already on the truck when we arrive.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Green Acres Homes
- Long roof-terminated runs that never get fully cleaned. The visible section near the dryer gets vacuumed, but the 15 – 25 feet running through the attic to the roof stays packed with lint. We camera the full run on every job, so there’s no guesswork about whether the whole path is clear.
- Crushed flexible foil duct behind the dryer. In tight laundry closets, the foil duct gets pinned between the dryer and the wall. Airflow drops, drying time doubles, and the duct becomes a lint trap. We replace it with smooth rigid duct as part of the service.
- Missing or damaged roof caps. Green Acres’ raccoons and scrub jays find open vent terminations fast. A missing cap means nests, debris, and rainwater entering the run. We install proper terminations and bird guards so the repair holds.
- Per-vent and per-foot pricing games. Homeowners get quoted a low number over the phone, then hit with add-ons once the long run and roof access are “discovered” on site. We quote a flat price per system before we start, and we don’t change it at the door.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Green Acres
Most Green Acres households need a dryer vent cleaning every 12 to 24 months. The deciding factors are run length, whether the vent terminates at the roof, and how many loads you run per week. If the dryer is taking longer than one normal cycle to dry a load, or if you can’t remember the last cleaning, it’s time. If you clean the lint trap every load and your vent is a short side-wall run we check with the camera, we’ll tell you plainly if you can wait. Call (737) 727-2314 and we’ll help you figure out where you stand.
Yes. We quote one flat price per dryer vent system before any work begins, and that’s the price on your invoice. Roof-terminated runs in Green Acres simply fall into the $229 – $289 cleaning range instead of the lower tier. You’ll see the number in writing before a single tool comes off the truck. Call (737) 727-2314 for a free estimate.
We start by pulling the dryer out and running a camera down the full vent run to see what’s there. Then we clean the entire lint pathway using a Rotobrush rotary brush and Nikro HEPA-vacuum extraction – negative-pressure extraction, which means the loosened debris goes straight into the vacuum, not back into your laundry room. We reconnect the dryer, check the termination point, and show you before-and-after photos of your own ductwork on the tablet. The whole job takes about 90 minutes.
If your dryer takes two cycles to dry towels, the exterior flap doesn’t open when the dryer runs, or the top of the dryer gets noticeably hot, those are signs of restricted airflow. In Green Acres’ older tract homes with long roof-terminated runs, these symptoms often mean lint has packed deep in the run where you can’t see it. The camera inspection settles it. Call (737) 727-2314 and we’ll take a look.
Yes. If the camera shows crushed flexible foil duct or a separated joint, we’ll show you the footage and quote the fix as part of the same visit. We carry rigid metal duct sections and proper terminations on the truck, so most repairs are done same visit. You’ll see the written price before the repair starts, and every repair carries a 365-day guarantee.
