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 Aubrey
Dryer vent cleaning in Aubrey typically costs $149 – $289 for a standard single-dryer home, depending on whether your vent exits a side wall or runs up through the attic and out the roof. Most Aubrey jobs take 60 – 90 minutes, and we bring a camera to check the full lint pathway before and after cleaning. Call (737) 727-2314 for a written quote before any work starts, and we’ll confirm exactly what your vent configuration needs.
We work throughout Aubrey regularly, from the newer subdivisions around Sandbrock Ranch and Cross Oak Ranch to older acreage properties east of FM 1385. The difference between a short wall-exit run and a long attic-and-roof run changes everything about how we approach the job, and it’s the first thing we look at when we arrive. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning team carries Rotobrush agitation tools and Nikro HEPA-filtered negative-pressure vacuums, so lint goes into the containment unit, not back into your laundry room.
Why Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning Is Aubrey’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
Aubrey homeowners keep calling us back because we hand over a written price before a single tool comes off the truck, and that number doesn’t move at the door. Omar Haddad, who leads our team, built the process around one standard: the customer knows who’s coming, what it costs, and what was actually done before we leave the driveway. That means background-checked, uniformed technicians, a live trackable arrival window through The Relay Standard, and before-and-after photos of your actual vent run.
We’re part of the Relay Home Co. family, founded 2005, and every job carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise. If the vent isn’t clean or the airflow doesn’t move the way it should within a full year, we come back and correct it at no charge. That applies to every Aubrey booking without exception. No fine print, no carve-outs. Just a written guarantee on every repair and a free second visit if anything fails.
Dryer Vent Cleaning Service in Aubrey
Dryer Vent Cleaning Service in Aubrey means agitating the full length of the lint pathway under negative pressure, which pulls loosened debris straight into a HEPA-rated Nikro vacuum instead of recirculating it through your home. A standard cleaning covers the transition behind the dryer, the entire duct run, and the exterior or roof termination where blockages actually build up. Most Aubrey homes fall into two categories: short 4-inch runs straight to a side wall, or longer runs that climb through the attic and exit at the roofline. The roof exits are where we find nests in flapper-style terminations, and that changes the scope of the job.
Wall-Exit Vents
If your dryer sits against an exterior wall in a garage or utility room, the run is usually short and the cleaning is straightforward. We inspect the transition first for crushed flex pipe, which is the most common airflow killer in newer Aubrey builds where the dryer got pushed too far back against the wall.
Attic-and-Roof Runs
Interior laundry closets with vertical runs through unconditioned attic space pick up more lint than you’d expect, and the roofline termination is where birds and wasps like to nest. We run the camera up the full pathway, clear the flapper and screen, and document everything with photos before we call the job done.
Dryer Vent Installation in Aubrey
Dryer Vent Installation in Aubrey covers replacing undersized, crushed, or poorly routed existing ductwork, or running a new vent where a builder left the connection inadequate. We install rigid metal pipe wherever code and access allow, which resists lint accumulation far better than the foil flex transitions that come standard on so many new builds. A typical replacement run in Aubrey costs $189 – $349 for the vent itself, depending on length, routing, and whether we need to correct the exterior termination at the same time.
Transition Replacement
The short section behind the dryer is where we see the most damage: kinks, tears, and sloppy foil taped in place. We replace it with smooth rigid pipe where the space allows, or a properly rated semi-rigid metal transition where it doesn’t, and we secure it with clamps, not tape, so it doesn’t pull loose when the dryer moves.
Roof Termination Upgrades
Older flapper-style roof caps collect debris and give birds an entry point. When we re-run or replace a roof-venting system, we can install a bird guard over the termination, which keeps nests out without choking the airflow. We always confirm the new run meets the dryer manufacturer’s maximum equivalent length before we finish.
Trusted Brands We Service in Aubrey
We service every major dryer brand you’ll find in Aubrey homes: Whirlpool, Maytag, LG, Samsung, GE, Electrolux, and Speed Queen. The dryer itself doesn’t change how we clean the vent, but the transition style and termination type do, and we carry the compatible rigid and semi-rigid pipe, clamps, and replacement caps on the truck. Our crews run Rotobrush agitation systems and Nikro HEPA vacuum units, with Abatement Technologies containment when a long attic run requires pulling debris from the roofline. That means no running to a supply house mid-job while your laundry sits half-disassembled.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Aubrey Homes
- Crushed flex transitions behind the dryer. Builders often tuck the dryer tight to the wall and the foil transition kinks, cutting airflow in half without anyone noticing. We replace it with rigid or properly rated semi-rigid pipe so the dryer can breathe.
- Bird and wasp nests in roof terminations. Flapper-style caps on Aubrey rooflines are an open invitation. A nest plugs the exit, the dryer overheats, and the blower motor works twice as hard for half the result.
- Long attic runs through unconditioned space. Lint cools and condenses inside the pipe in the attic, sticking to the walls and narrowing the bore over time. These runs need camera inspection, not just a glance at the exterior vent.
- Sidewall caps with stuck louvers. Even short runs fail at the exterior cap when the dampers stick open from lint buildup, letting hot North Texas air and pests into the ductwork. We open, clean, and test the cap on every job.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Aubrey
Yes, it changes both the process and the price. A roof-terminated attic run requires us to set up a ladder, clear the roofline cap and screen, and run a camera from the bottom to verify the full pathway is clear. That typically lands in the $229 – $289 range in Aubrey, versus $149 – $229 for a short straight wall exit. Call (737) 727-2314 and describe where your dryer sits; we’ll tell you which configuration you have and quote the flat price for that system.
For most Aubrey homes with a short wall-exit run, every 12 – 18 months is genuinely enough. If you have a long attic-and-roof run, a bird guard, or a laundry room that sees heavy daily use, plan on every 8 – 12 months. The honest answer is that a camera inspection tells us more than a calendar, and we’ll never schedule a cleaning your vent doesn’t need just to hit a number. If you’re unsure, call us and we’ll talk through your setup before you book anything.
Yes. A side-wall exit in Aubrey is typically accessible without a ladder and runs $149 – $229. A roof exit requires ladder work, clearing the termination, and usually a longer camera run, which puts it at $229 – $289. The difference is the access and the time on the roofline, not a markup invented after we see the house. You’ll get the exact number for your configuration in writing before we touch anything.
Yes, on every single job. You’ll see a camera image of the lint pathway before cleaning and a clear, wide-open path afterward, as well as photos of the termination and any debris we pulled out. That’s part of The Relay Standard booking at Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning, and it’s the whole point: you should see the proof, not take our word for it. Omar Haddad and the team built the process around showing you the work, not just telling you it’s done.
We don’t promise same-day service, because dryer vent cleaning is a scheduled job that deserves the right time window and the right truck, not a rushed slot squeezed between other calls. What we do promise is a real person on the line at (737) 727-2314, a live trackable arrival window, and the soonest honest opening in Aubrey. When we show up, we’re fully equipped and unhurried, and that’s the kind of service worth scheduling properly.
