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 Cedar Park
Dryer vent cleaning in Cedar Park typically runs $149-$289 for a standard single-family home, with most jobs completed in 90 minutes and a written price delivered before any work starts. If your dryer is taking two cycles to finish a load or the utility closet feels hot mid-cycle, the vent run is likely clogged with lint baked hard by attic heat. Call (737) 243-9544 for a free estimate with a written price you can compare.
We’ve worked the master-planned subdivisions from Avery Ranch to Ranch at Brushy Creek since 2013. Our crews know the local housing stock: slab-on-grade builds with dryers tucked into interior garages or utility closets, vent runs stretching 20-35 feet through attic space that hits 130°F+ from May through October. That combination clogs vents faster here than in older cities with shorter runs and vented crawl spaces. Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our Austin office, and we route crews to Cedar Park daily.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Austin Is Cedar Park’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
Cedar Park homeowners have left us reviews mentioning the photo records specifically: being shown the packed lint mat inside a 30-foot attic run before any cleaning started. We don’t ask anyone to trust a verbal diagnosis. Every visit produces a Documented Photo Record of the duct interior, delivered as part of the standard job record. That’s been our practice since our first job in 2013.
Our Dryer Vent Cleaning team is background-checked and uniformed under Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews. Tomas Reyes, who leads CleanRun, requires every technician to identify themselves by name before entering a home. License number is published on this page, not buried in a footer, because a homeowner researching a service category should be able to verify credentials without clicking three levels deep.
We answer calls with a live person 24/7. No automated queue for scheduling. If you need a Free Second Opinion on any written estimate from another company, bring it in and we’ll put our number next to it in writing. No charge.
Our Dryer Vent Cleaning Services in Cedar Park
Dryer Vent Inspection
A proper inspection in Cedar Park means running a camera the full length of the attic run, not just peering behind the dryer. We document sagging flex duct, lint accumulation at low points, and exterior termination damage from Hill Country wind and pollen load. The inspection includes a written scope with photos and a fixed price for any recommended work. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires that written price before a single panel comes off.
Vent Cleaning
We use professional-grade negative-pressure extraction equipment from Rotobrush and Nikro, not shop vacs. For Cedar Park’s long attic runs, that matters: lint baked onto duct walls at 130°F+ for months hardens into a felt-like mat that suction alone won’t remove. Our process dislodges packed material, extracts it under contained negative pressure, and finishes with a blower motor amp check to verify airflow restoration. The before-and-after photo record shows every foot of the run.
Lint Removal
Lint pushed past the trap is the hidden problem in Cedar Park homes. Homeowners clean the trap religiously but never see the pathway behind the dryer or the exterior cap where Ashe juniper pollen mixes with dust from undeveloped scrub along RM 1431 and RM 2243. We remove lint from the full pathway: trap housing, transition duct, attic run, and termination point. In Buttercup Creek and similar communities, we’ve found exterior caps completely crusted over with yellow-green pollen dust after heavy cedar seasons.
Vent Rerouting
Some Cedar Park tract builds have vent runs so long or so poorly routed that cleaning becomes a recurring expense. We reroute to shorter, straighter paths with smooth elbows where possible, switching from sagging flex duct to rigid metal that won’t collect lint at low points. Every reroute includes a new exterior cap and, where needed, a Guardsman bird guard to prevent nesting in the Hill Country scrub interface zones.
Bird Guard Installation
The western Cedar Park neighborhoods backing onto undeveloped cedar scrub see bird and rodent intrusion into vent terminations seasonally. A Guardsman bird guard installs at the exterior cap without restricting airflow. We verify fit with a back-pressure check after installation. This is standard on most reroutes and available as standalone protection on any existing vent.
Vent Cap Replacement
Exterior caps in Cedar Park take punishment: UV degradation, wind-driven pollen dust, and impact from branch fall in scrub-adjacent lots. We stock replacement caps suited to local conditions and verify proper flap operation after installation. A stuck-open cap lets in pollen and pests; a stuck-closed cap traps moisture and lint.

Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Cedar Park Homes
- Baked lint in long attic runs. Cedar Park’s slab-on-grade tract homes route dryer vents 20-35 feet through attic space that exceeds 130°F in summer. Lint pushed past the trap bakes onto duct walls, hardening into a felt-like mat that standard shop vacs can’t dislodge. We see this in 5-15 year old homes in Avery Ranch and Ranch at Brushy Creek that have never had professional vent cleaning.
- Sagging flex duct creating lint traps. The ribbed interior of flexible ductwork, installed quickly in fast-build subdivisions, sags between attic joists and collects lint at low points. Add Ashe juniper pollen infiltration during December-February cedar season, and the blockage becomes dense enough to trip the dryer’s thermal fuse.
- Exterior cap crust from pollen and dust. Homes along the RM 1431 and RM 2243 corridors, where undeveloped Hill Country scrub abuts subdivisions, develop exterior terminations caked with fine yellow-green pollen dust mixed with limestone road grit. The cap flap sticks, restricting airflow and forcing longer dry times.
- Interior garage utility closet heat buildup. Dryers in Cedar Park’s interior garages or closets recirculate hot, moist air when the vent is partially blocked. The closet smells hot, paint discolors near the ceiling, and the dryer works progressively harder until the heating element fails or the thermal fuse trips.

FAQs - Dryer Vent Cleaning in Cedar Park
Every 12-18 months for standard use, and every 10-12 months if you dry heavy loads frequently or live in a home with a 25+ foot attic run. Cedar Park’s combination of long flex-duct runs, 130°F+ summer attic heat, and intense Ashe juniper pollen season accelerates lint compaction beyond what shorter-run housing stock experiences. Call (737) 243-9544 to schedule - we’ll inspect first and give you a written price before any work starts.
The vent run is almost certainly restricted, and the confined utility closet traps heat that should be exhausting outside. In Cedar Park’s master-planned subdivisions, 20-35 foot attic runs with sagging flex duct create low points where lint and cedar pollen pack together. The dryer senses insufficient airflow, cycles the heating element off prematurely, and runs longer without drying effectively. We see this exact pattern in Avery Ranch, Ranch at Brushy Creek, and Buttercup Creek - a camera inspection confirms the blockage location and the written repair price follows.
An inspection is a camera-run assessment with a written scope and fixed price for any recommended work; cleaning is the physical removal of lint and debris from the full pathway. In Cedar Park, we rarely recommend inspection without cleaning because the camera almost always shows accumulation in long attic runs that homeowners can’t see from the trap. The inspection fee applies toward cleaning if you proceed. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires that written price before any work starts, so you’ll know the full cost either way.
Yes. December-February cedar pollen infiltration adds fine particulate matter to lint already accumulating in the vent pathway. The yellow-green pollen dust mixes with lint at exterior caps and in sagging flex duct low points, forming a denser, more adhesive blockage than lint alone. Technicians working western Cedar Park along RM 1431 routinely pull filters and duct interiors caked with this material every February-March. Many homeowners here book vent cleaning right after cedar season ends, the same way they’d schedule an AC tune-up before summer.
Look for three things: a written price before work starts, a photo record of what was actually found and removed, and verifiable credentials you can check independently. In an industry built on $79 coupons that become $400 invoices once the van is parked, the written price is your protection. CleanRun delivers that price under Haven Standard Clause 1, documents every run with before-and-after photos, and publishes our license number on this page. The 365-Day Done Right Promise backs the work in writing, not just in marketing copy. Call (737) 243-9544 and we’ll put it in writing.
