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 Paloma Creek South’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
The homes in Paloma Creek South were built for speed during the 2000s and 2010s boom, and their dryer vent runs reflect it. Long vertical chases, multiple elbows, and exterior terminations that are hard to see from the ground mean lint accumulates where you can’t reach it. This is exactly what we’re built around. On Churchill Drive, we cleaned a second-floor dryer vent in a two-story home where the homeowner had already vacuumed the lint trap but was still noticing laundry taking two full cycles to dry. Our tech ran a camera inspection through the run, found a heavy lint pathway buildup near the exterior termination, broke it up with agitation tools under negative pressure, and finished with HEPA filtration before showing the homeowner before-and-after photos of their own run. That’s the job, done honestly.

Dryer Vent Cleaning Company in Paloma Creek South
We’re the Dryer Vent Cleaning Company Paloma Creek South homeowners call when the laundry room starts feeling warm, the dryer takes two cycles to finish a load, or the outside vent flap won’t open when the machine is running. Most standard cleanings in this area run $130 – $210, and the price is written down before we begin. What drives that range is the length of the vent run and how much buildup has accumulated along the interior walls. Second-floor runs cost more than first-floor runs because they’re longer and harder to access. But the price we quote is the price you pay, period.
What We Actually Do
We attach a Rotobrush rotary brush system to the interior vent opening and run it through the full length of the duct while a Nikro HEPA-rated negative-pressure vacuum runs the whole time. Negative-pressure extraction, that means the loosened debris goes straight into the vacuum, not back into your living room. Then we check the exterior termination for blockages, crush points, or bird activity.
The Flat-Rate Difference
If a company quotes you a per-vent or per-hour price for dryer vent work in Paloma Creek South, walk away. Our price is per system, written down before we open the run, and it does not change at the door. You’ll see before-and-after photos of your own duct work when we finish. Not stock images. Your actual vent.
Dryer Vent Inspection in Paloma Creek South
A Dryer Vent Inspection in Paloma Creek South is the right first step when you’ve just moved in, when your dryer is older, or when you smell something musty behind the machine. Inspections run $85 – $140 and include a camera run through the full vent pathway plus a written report on what we found. You don’t need a cleaning if the vent is clear. If it’s not, you’ll know exactly why, with images.
Camera Inspection Matters Here
On second-floor runs in Paloma Creek South, the real trouble is usually near the exterior hood, where long vertical chases trap lint that never reaches a visible trap. A camera shows you precisely where the blockage sits, whether it’s compacted lint, a crushed section of flexible duct behind brick veneer, or a bird’s nest. Without the camera, you’re guessing.
When to Schedule One
If your clothes take longer than 40 minutes to dry, if the dryer feels hot to the touch, or if you can’t remember the last time anyone looked at the vent, book an inspection. It’s cheaper than a cleaning and tells you whether a cleaning is even necessary. We’ll never sell you a cleaning you don’t need.
Trusted Brands We Service in Paloma Creek South
Our technicians in Paloma Creek South work on every major dryer brand, including Whirlpool, Maytag, LG, Samsung, GE, and Electrolux.

Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Paloma Creek South Homes
- Long second-floor runs with hidden buildup. Most Paloma Creek South homes were built with second-floor laundry rooms and vertical vent chases that run 15 to 25 feet. Lint packs down mid-run where nothing visible gives it away.
- Birds and wasps in the exterior termination. Master-planned communities with greenbelts and water features, like the areas near Paloma Creek South’s parks, see more bird activity around exterior vent hoods. A nest blocks airflow completely even when the indoor run is clean.
- Crushed flexible duct behind brick veneer. The brick facades common across Denton County construction hide flexible transition duct that gets kinked or crushed during install. Flow drops before lint even becomes the issue.
- Foil exhaust tubing instead of rigid metal. Some original builds used flexible foil tube that lint catches on and that can’t be cleaned aggressively without tearing. Rigid metal or UL-listed flex is the correct replacement, and we stock both.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Paloma Creek South
Every 12 to 18 months for a typical two-story home in Paloma Creek South. If you dry more than five loads a week, or if you have pets and a second-floor laundry room, lean toward every 12 months. The 12 to 18-month interval is based on the long vertical runs common in this community’s 2000s and 2010s construction. Call (737) 727-2314 and we’ll help you set a schedule that makes sense for your actual home.
Because the vent run is longer and mostly vertical. Lint picks up moisture in the warm air coming off the dryer, then dries and sticks to the duct walls as the air cools on its way up and out. A first-floor run might be 8 to 10 feet. A second-floor run in Paloma Creek South is often 18 to 25 feet with multiple elbows. That extra distance and those bends are where the lint lives. Call (737) 727-2314 if you suspect your upper-floor vent is backed up.
