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.

Dryer vent cleaning in Trinity, FL typically runs $139 – $279 for a standard single-system home, and the job takes about 45 – 90 minutes once we’re on site.

Call (737) 727-2314 and a real person answers, day or night.
Why Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning Is Trinity’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
Trinity homeowners call us for the same reasons we’d want if it were our own laundry room: a written price before any work starts, a tech whose name you know before the door opens, and before-and-after photos of your own vent run. No mystery. No upsell at the door. Our techs rotate through Trinity on a regular schedule, so we know the housing stock here – and we know which vent runs cause trouble.
The 365-Day Done Right Promise means exactly what it sounds like. If the vent clean isn’t right within a full year, we come back and correct it at no charge. That’s the longest-standing satisfaction window in the trade, and it applies to every job we book in Trinity. Omar Haddad, who leads our crew, built the standard: one flat price per system agreed before we start, no per-vent pricing, and a written guarantee on every repair.
Every technician is background-checked, uniformed, and runs professional-grade equipment. We use Rotobrush rotary brush systems for agitation and Nikro HEPA vacuums for negative-pressure extraction – that means the loosened lint goes straight into the vacuum, not back into your laundry room. You’ll see the proof in the photos we send before we leave the driveway.
Dryer Vent Installation in Trinity
Dryer Vent Installation in Trinity usually comes up in two situations: a new dryer that doesn’t line up with the old vent location, or an existing run that’s so kinked, crushed, or poorly routed that replacing it costs less than fighting it. In Trinity’s two-story stucco homes, we often see builder-grade foil flex duct that kinks at the wall transition behind the dryer – the airflow drops, lint builds faster, and the dryer works harder than it should. A new smooth rigid run fixes that.
Most dryer vent installations in Trinity run $200 – $450 depending on run length, accessibility, and whether the old run needs to be pulled out first. A straight exterior-wall install on a ground-floor laundry room sits at the lower end. A vertical run through a second-floor wall cavity sits higher – it’s a longer path, often needs a roof or soffit termination, and sometimes requires cutting drywall to reach the old duct.
What a New Vent Run Includes
We build the run in rigid galvanized or smooth-wall aluminum, sized to your dryer’s CFM output. Every install ends with a pest-guard hood – either a flap type or a screened cap – and a camera inspection so you can see the full pathway is clear before we pack up.
When Replacement Beats Cleaning
If the existing foil flex is torn, crushed behind the dryer, or installed with sharp bends that trap lint, cleaning it is a temporary patch. We’ll tell you plainly which one you need. If it’s replaceable, you’ll know that price before we touch anything.
Dryer Vent Repair in Trinity
Dryer Vent Repair in Trinity is what we do when the vent run is mostly sound but something along the line has failed: a disconnected joint inside the wall, a crushed section behind the dryer, a flapper that’s stuck open, or a hood that’s been knocked loose. On a call in the Villages of Trinity, our tech traced a dryer vent run from a second-floor laundry closet and found a bird’s nest plugging the exterior hood, backed up with two years of lint behind the blower motor. We pulled the run apart, ran agitation tools through the full lint pathway under negative pressure with HEPA filtration at the vacuum, and reinstalled a pest-guard hood before running a camera inspection top to bottom.
Most dryer vent repairs in Trinity run $120 – $350. A simple hood or flapper replacement sits on the low end. A disconnected joint hidden inside a wall cavity that requires cutting an access panel sits higher – and we’ll always show you the camera image of the problem before any repair work starts.
Hood and Cap Replacement
A broken flapper or a missing pest guard lets rain, rodents, and Florida humidity into the vent run. We stock common hood sizes for Trinity homes and can replace yours the same visit we find the problem.
Rerouting a Vent Run
When a builder ran the vent through a bad path – like through an uninsulated attic that collects condensation, or with three hard 90-degree elbows – rerouting fixes the root cause instead of just cleaning around it. Rerouting pricing is quoted before work starts, same as every job.
Trusted Brands We Service in Trinity
We don’t care what brand your dryer is – we service them all in Trinity: LG, Samsung, Whirlpool, GE, Maytag, Electrolux, Speed Queen, and the rest. What we do care about is the vent run attached to it. Our trucks carry Guardsman pest-guard hoods, rigid and semi-rigid duct in common Trinity sizes, and the Abatement Technologies containment units we use when a deep clean needs actual dust control. If your dryer’s manufacturer recommends a specific vent spec, we’ll match it. Parts for common Trinity installs are on the truck, not ordered in, which means most repairs finish the same visit we diagnose them.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Trinity Homes
- Vertical runs through second-floor wall cavities in two-story stucco homes. In floor plans where the laundry room sits on an interior wall – common in Villages of Trinity and Trinity East builds – the vent rises through the wall instead of exiting straight out. Lint settles in the low spots of those vertical runs, where a short shop-vac hose from outside can’t reach.
- Builder-grade foil flex duct kinked at the dryer connection. The dryer gets pushed back against the wall, the flex tube folds, and airflow drops by half. You’re left running every load twice, and the trapped heat shortens the dryer’s life.
- Pest-guard mesh that clogs itself. Florida birds, tree frogs, and wasps push Trinity homeowners into screened vent hoods. But mesh tight enough to stop a wasp also catches lint on the inside face. Within a season it’s a solid lint wall. A proper hood with a weighted flapper and 1/4-inch or larger mesh is usually the fix.
- Humidity soaking through foil duct in unconditioned attics. Trinity’s summer humidity wets the inside of attic vent runs, and wet lint sticks instead of blowing through. The clog grows faster from June through October than any other stretch of the year.
Pricing for Dryer Vent Cleaning in Trinity, FL
We charge one flat price per system, agreed before work starts – never per vent, never a low teaser that turns into an invoice three times bigger once the tech is inside. A standard single-dryer vent clean in Trinity runs $139 – $279. Single-story homes with a short, straight exterior-wall run sit at the low end. Two-story homes with vertical interior-wall runs and a roof or soffit termination sit higher, because the run is longer, harder to reach, and usually needs rooftop access. If the vent also needs a hood replacement or a minor repair, you’ll get that price in writing before we do it. Call (737) 727-2314 and we’ll quote your exact system over the phone. The estimate is free, and the number we quote is the number you pay.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Trinity
Every 12 months, and more often if the run is vertical or the dryer sees more than five loads a week. Trinity’s two-story stucco homes with interior laundry rooms trap lint in the vertical rise, and those runs clog faster than a straight exterior-wall exit. Call (737) 727-2314 and we’ll help you set the right interval for your specific layout.
It’s the vent about 80% of the time in Trinity. If the lint screen is clean and clothes still feel damp after a full cycle, airflow is restricted somewhere in the run. On Trinity’s two-story builds, that usually means lint packed into a vertical rise or a kinked flex duct behind the dryer. We’ll camera the run and show you exactly where the blockage is. If the vent is clear and it’s actually the dryer, we’ll tell you that too and you’ll have paid for a diagnosis, not a guess.
Per system, one flat price agreed before work starts. We will never quote you a low per-vent number over the phone and then inflate it once the tech is standing in your laundry room. The price covers the full run: the interior duct, the transition hose, the wall cavity, and the exterior hood. Call (737) 727-2314 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
We install, repair, reroute, and clean. If your Trinity home’s vent run is crushed, disconnected, improperly routed, or terminated without a pest guard, we can rebuild it. Installations run $200 – $450, repairs $120 – $350. You’ll get a camera image of the existing problem and a written price for the fix before any work begins.
You book the appointment and get a live trackable arrival window, so you see the tech coming before they knock. A background-checked, uniformed technician introduces themselves, walks the vent run with you, and uses a Rotobrush agitation system and Nikro HEPA vacuum to pull the lint out under negative pressure. When the run is clear, we camera it top to bottom, show you the before and after, and email you the photos with a digital invoice you can pay by link. That’s The Relay Standard on every Trinity job.
