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 Cibolo
Dryer vent cleaning in Cibolo typically costs $149-$289 for a standard single-family home, and every job starts with a written price before any work begins. If your dryer is taking two cycles to finish a load or your laundry room smells like scorched dust, the vent run is likely restricted - and in Cibolo’s post-2000 tract homes, the cause is often construction debris that never got cleared before move-in.
We serve Cibolo from our San Antonio office, with crews running daily routes along the Purple Heart Trail and into neighborhoods off Roy Richard Drive and John E. Peterson Boulevard. Most appointments are scheduled within a few business days, and our Dryer Vent Cleaning team arrives in a marked van with a uniformed, background-checked technician who introduces himself by name before stepping inside. Call (830) 402-5110 to book a free estimate.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Schertz Is Cibolo’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
Cibolo grew from roughly 3,000 residents in 2000 to over 30,000 by the early 2020s, and we’ve been documenting the ductwork in those homes since the first subdivisions broke ground. Our reputation here rests on what we can show, not what we claim: a written price before any panel comes off, a photo record of every vent run before and after, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise backed in writing on every job.
Our Cibolo customers are homeowners who bought between 2015 and 2025 and researched every service category before calling. They choose us because we publish real price ranges, name the equipment we use - Rotobrush agitation systems, Nikro negative-pressure extractors, Guardsman inspection cameras - and deliver a documented job record they can keep for their files or their home sale.
Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our San Antonio office, but the crew that arrives at your Cibolo home knows the local housing stock. They’ve worked the flex-duct chases in Comal Community, traced vent runs through attics above homes near St. Paul Church, and replaced cracked vent caps on houses backing up to Schertz city limits. That familiarity saves time and prevents the callbacks that happen when a technician treats a Cibolo tract home like a 1950s build.
Our Dryer Vent Cleaning Services in Cibolo
Dryer Vent Inspection
A dryer vent inspection in Cibolo starts with a camera run through the entire lint pathway, from the dryer connection to the exterior termination. In the post-2000 builder-grade homes that dominate Cibolo, we regularly find flexible vent runs that share attic chases with unsealed supply and return ducts - meaning construction drywall dust and caliche limestone particulate have been pushed into the lint pathway since before the first load of laundry. The inspection documents every restriction, every crack in the vent cap, and every sag or crush in the flex run. You get the photos. Haven Standard Clause 1 applies: the written price comes after the inspection, before any work starts.
Vent Cleaning
Our vent cleaning process uses source-removal agitation under negative pressure - we dislodge debris with a Rotobrush system while a Nikro extractor pulls it out of the run, so nothing escapes into your laundry room or attic. In Cibolo, the debris profile is distinctive: caliche dust from ongoing subdivision development along Roy Richard Drive, cedar pollen from the Ashe juniper belt that coats duct interiors from November through February, and builder debris that should have been cleared in 2019 or 2022 but never was. The result is a vent run that moves air at the manufacturer’s specified rate, documented with before-and-after photos included as standard.
Lint Removal
Lint removal sounds simple until you see what’s actually in the run. Cibolo’s hard water and high-heat drying cycles produce lint that packs dense and hard at elbows and sags in flex duct. We use mechanical agitation tools that break up packed lint without damaging the thin-walled flex duct common in local tract homes. Every pound of material removed is documented in your job record. If the lint load is heavy enough to indicate a long-term restriction, we’ll flag it in writing - because a restricted vent is a fire hazard, and a documented warning protects both of us.
Vent Rerouting
Some Cibolo homes were built with vent runs that are too long, have too many elbows, or terminate in locations that violate current code. Rerouting is not always necessary, but when the camera shows a crush behind drywall or a termination point that pools moisture against siding, we quote a reroute with a written scope and price. Our crews carry Guardsman-rated materials and can reroute through crawl spaces or exterior walls to achieve a straight, short run with a proper termination. Every reroute includes new vent cap installation and a post-work airflow test.
Vent Cap Replacement
The plastic vent caps installed by Cibolo builders crack within a few seasons of 100°F summer heat. Birds then nest in the broken hood, and caliche dust blows straight into the lint pathway. We replace damaged caps with metal, bird-guarded terminations that withstand Texas heat and keep wildlife out. The replacement is photographed before and after, and the new cap is warrantied under the 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Bird Guard Installation
Bird guards are code in many jurisdictions and smart practice everywhere. We install mesh guards that block nesting material without restricting airflow, sized to the vent diameter and termination type. In Cibolo, where new construction continuously disturbs habitat along developing corridors, bird intrusion is common - and preventable.

We don’t guess at what equipment goes into your home. Our crews work with Rotobrush agitation systems, Nikro negative-pressure extractors, and Guardsman inspection cameras - brands you can look up independently before you agree to a price.

If your dryer is a premium brand with specific venting requirements, we verify clearances and materials against manufacturer specs before quoting.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Cibolo Homes
- Builder debris packed in the flex run. In Cibolo’s post-2000 tract homes, drywall dust and caliche grit from original construction often remain trapped in the vent pathway. The homeowner assumes a new house is clean. The camera shows otherwise.
- Cracked plastic vent caps from heat cycling. Cibolo summer temperatures exceed 100°F for months, and the thin plastic caps installed by builders become brittle and split. Birds nest in the gap. Caliche dust blows in. The restriction builds silently.
- Crushed or sagging flex duct behind drywall. Speed-built homes along John E. Peterson Boulevard frequently have flex runs that were jammed into tight chases or supported with inadequate straps. The sag creates a lint trap no amount of trap-cleaning reaches.
- Unanswerable service history for military families. Active-duty and recently transitioned families near Randolph AFB move every two to three years and inherit ductwork with no record of prior cleaning. The vent run has been degrading since the builder finished the house.

FAQs - Dryer Vent Cleaning in Cibolo
Yes. In Cibolo’s post-2000 builder-grade homes, construction debris often remains in the vent run from the original build, and the flexible duct common in these houses can sag or crush behind drywall within the first few years. We were called to a two-year-old home off John E Peterson Boulevard where the homeowner, a recently transitioned military family from nearby Randolph AFB, reported that every load was taking two cycles and the laundry room smelled like scorched dust. Our tech ran a camera inspection down the lint pathway and found the flexible vent run packed with drywall dust and caliche grit from the original build, capped by a bird’s nest pressed against the exterior termination. We performed source removal with agitation tools under negative pressure, replaced the damaged vent cap, and the dry time dropped back to a single cycle. Call (830) 402-5110 for a free inspection.
Ongoing subdivision development throughout corridors like Roy Richard Drive and John E. Peterson Boulevard continuously stirs up fine caliche dust, which is drawn into nearby HVAC intakes and can enter dryer vent terminations through cracked or missing caps. Once inside, the abrasive particulate mixes with lint and packs hard at elbows and sags, accelerating restriction beyond what lint alone would cause. The result is longer dry times, higher energy bills, and increased fire risk. A camera inspection shows the difference between standard lint loading and caliche-compacted debris. Call (830) 402-5110 to schedule.
The inspection verifies four things: airflow rate at the exterior termination, integrity of the vent cap and bird guard, condition of the flex or rigid run from dryer to wall, and any debris load visible by camera. In Cibolo specifically, we also check for unsealed duct joints in shared attic chases where supply and return ducts can push construction debris into the vent pathway. You receive photos of every finding and a written scope with price before any cleaning begins. Call (830) 402-5110 to book.
Military families move frequently and typically inherit homes with no service history, which makes a baseline inspection valuable regardless of the home’s apparent age. In Cibolo and adjacent Schertz, many of these homes are the same post-2000 tract builds with the same builder-debris and cracked-cap failure patterns. We offer the same written price, photo documentation, and 365-Day Done Right Promise to every household, and we understand the timing pressures of PCS moves. Call (830) 402-5110 to schedule around your rotation date.
The leading cause of residential dryer fires is failure to clean the vent, according to the National Fire Protection Association - and Cibolo’s combination of heavy lint loads, caliche dust compounding restrictions, and cracked vent caps that allow bird nesting makes this risk locally relevant. A restricted vent overheats the dryer element and ignites accumulated lint. The prevention is documented source removal by a trained technician, not trap-cleaning alone. We photograph the restriction before we touch it and the clear run after, so you have evidence of the hazard that was removed. Call (830) 402-5110 for an inspection.
