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 North Richland Hills
Dryer vent cleaning in North Richland Hills typically runs $149 – $289 for a standard single-dryer home, and the job takes about 60 – 90 minutes from setup to final photo documentation. Most homes in North Richland Hills were built between the 1970s and 2000s, which means the dryer vent behind your wall is likely foil or plastic flex duct that has quietly packed with lint for decades. That lint is fuel, and your dryer produces heat. Our team knows the long, winding vent runs common in Smithfield, Home Town, and the neighborhoods off Davis Boulevard, and we clean them with professional-grade Rotobrush and Nikro equipment, not a shop vac. Call (737) 727-2314 for a written quote before anyone touches your vent.
Why Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning Is North Richland Hills’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
We do one thing differently across North Richland Hills: we hand you a written price before any work starts, and that price does not change at the door. No per-vent upselling, no surprise add-ons. That approach matters in a city where a lot of the housing stock dates back to the 1970s through the 1990s, because older dryer vent runs are exactly where less scrupulous companies find excuses to inflate the invoice. We do not operate that way. We quote the whole system, agree on it, then do the work.
Our technicians arrive in uniform, background-checked, and carrying camera inspection gear so you can see the blockage in your own vent before we clear it. After the cleaning, you get before-and-after photos of your actual dryer vent, not a stock image. Every North Richland Hills job is backed by the 365-Day Done Right Promise: if something isn’t right within a full year, we return and correct it at no charge. Omar Haddad, who leads our team, set that standard because most dryer vent companies won’t put a year behind their work.
We’re part of the Relay Home Co. family, founded in 2005, and every booking comes with The Relay Standard: a live trackable arrival window, before-and-after photo proof, and a digital invoice you can pay from your phone. You’ll know your technician’s name before they ring the bell.
Dryer Vent Repair in North Richland Hills
Dryer vent repair in North Richland Hills is what we do when the vent is more than dirty: it’s crushed, disconnected, improperly routed, or terminating somewhere it shouldn’t be. We recently serviced a home in the Smithfield area off Davis Boulevard where the homeowner noticed clothes taking two cycles to dry and a burning smell near the laundry. Our tech ran a camera inspection and found the 20-year-old foil flex duct crushed behind the wall with inches of packed lint. We replaced the damaged section and cleared the entire lint pathway with agitation tools and negative pressure – that means the loosened debris goes straight into the vacuum, not back into your living room. Full airflow restored, fire risk eliminated. Dryer vent repair in North Richland Hills typically runs $179 – $329 depending on how much of the run needs replacement, and every repair carries our written guarantee plus a free second visit if the repair ever fails within the year.
Vent Rerouting for Older Floor Plans
Many North Richland Hills homes from the 1980s and 1990s have dryer vents that snake through interior walls, around corners, and occasionally straight up through the roof. That’s not ideal. A shorter, straighter run means less lint accumulation and better dryer performance. We can reroute a vent to a more direct exterior wall path, and in doing so, we remove the hidden fire hazard that long flex runs create.
Vent Cap and Bird Guard Replacement
North Richland Hills backyards attract starlings and sparrows, and a missing or broken vent cap is an open invitation for nesting material inside your duct. We’ll inspect the cap, replace broken louvers, and install a bird guard where needed. A capped, screened vent keeps critters out and keeps your dryer pushing air the way it should.
Dryer Vent Cleaning Company in North Richland Hills
As a dryer vent cleaning company serving North Richland Hills, our job is to remove the lint you can’t reach – the stuff packed into the long run between your dryer and the outside. A standard cleaning here runs $149 – $289 and includes a camera inspection before we start, full source removal of lint using rotating brush agitation and HEPA filtration, and after photos so you can verify the work. If you’re in the 76180 or 76182 zip codes, you’re in our regular service area and we can typically schedule within a few days. Call (737) 727-2314 and a live person answers, day or night.
Lint Removal with Negative-Pressure Extraction
We use Rotobrush rotary brush systems paired with Nikro HEPA vacuums to capture every bit of loosened lint. Negative-pressure extraction is a trade term that matters: the vacuum runs the entire time the brush is turning, so nothing escapes back into your laundry room. For homes with roof-terminating vents in North Richland Hills, we use Abatement Technologies containment units because roofline blockages are the ones most often missed entirely by cheap cleanings.
Dryer Vent Inspection for Peace of Mind
Not sure if your vent needs cleaning? A camera inspection gives you a straight answer. We can show you the inside of your vent on our screen and explain exactly what we’re seeing. If it’s clean, we’ll tell you that too – we won’t sell you a cleaning you don’t need.
Trusted Brands We Service in North Richland Hills
We work on dryers and vents across every major brand homeowners in North Richland Hills actually own – Whirlpool, LG, Samsung, Maytag, GE, Electrolux, Kenmore, and Speed Queen. We carry common vent caps, bird guards, and replacement duct sections on our trucks, so most repairs finish same-visit. When we install filtration upgrades, we standardize on Aprilaire and Guardsman products, which we’ve found hold up best in North Texas humidity and dust conditions. We also maintain professional Rotobrush equipment on our trucks daily, so the cleaning we deliver in North Richland Hills is the same standard every time.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in North Richland Hills Homes
- Long flex-duct runs packed with lint. Homes built in the 1970s through early 2000s across North Richland Hills often have foil or plastic flex duct running 15 – 25 feet through interior walls, and that’s where lint packs in hardest. The lint trap only catches a fraction of what your dryer produces.
- Roof-terminated vents with severe roofline blockages. If your vent exits through the roof, lint tends to accumulate just before the cap, where heat and moisture compress it into a dense plug. Without camera inspection and proper agitation tools, a technician will miss it entirely.
- Crushed or disconnected duct behind the wall. We see this all the time in North Richland Hills homes that have been remodeled. A duct gets pinched during a renovation, airflow drops, and the dryer works harder and hotter. Clothes take twice as long to dry.
- Bird and rodent nesting in uncapped vents. Missing or damaged vent caps let starlings, sparrows, and sometimes squirrels build nests inside exterior vent openings. We remove the nesting material and install a proper guard so it doesn’t happen again.
Pricing for Dryer Vent Cleaning in North Richland Hills, TX
Our flat-rate pricing for dryer vent cleaning in North Richland Hills is based on the whole system, not the number of vents. A standard single-dryer home with a 10 – 20 foot run runs $149 – $289. Longer runs, roof-terminated vents, or heavy blockages that require extra time land at the top of that range. Dryer vent repair – replacing a crushed section of duct or a broken vent cap – runs $179 – $329. Vent rerouting is quoted on-site after we assess the existing path, and you’ll always get the written number before we begin. No per-vent pricing, ever.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in North Richland Hills
Every 12 to 18 months for most North Richland Hills homes. If your vent run is long, makes multiple turns, or terminates on the roof, every 12 months is the safer schedule. Homes with short, direct runs to an exterior wall can sometimes go 24 months. Call (737) 727-2314 and we’ll help you figure out your actual interval based on your home’s layout.
No. We charge one flat price per system, agreed to in writing before we start. We don’t do per-vent pricing, and we won’t pressure you into an air duct cleaning you don’t need when the dryer vent is the only thing that needs attention. Most standard cleanings in North Richland Hills run $149 – $289.
We start with a camera inspection so you can see the inside of your vent before and after. Then we run a rotating brush through the entire vent run while a HEPA vacuum pulls the loosened lint out under negative pressure. We finish by cleaning the exterior vent cap and showing you before-and-after photos of your own ducts. That’s the whole job, documented.
