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.

Irving’s housing landscape doesn’t fit a single template. The 1950s-1970s ranch tracts in North and West Irving sit on original sheet-metal or early flex ductwork. The 1980s-1990s townhome clusters around Las Colinas compress vent runs through tight utility closets. And the rural fringe properties near the Elm Fork Trinity River corridor deal with dust loading from unpaved roads and pollen that packs into lint in ways suburban systems rarely see. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning team treats each configuration as its own job, not a cut-and-paste service.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Irving Is Irving’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
We’ve been independently owned and operated under the Haven Standard since 2013, with 52,000+ homes served and every single job documented with before-and-after photos of the duct runs. In Irving specifically, that record includes everything from single-family ranches off O’Connor Road to multi-building service agreements in the Las Colinas corporate core. The 365-Day Done Right Promise applies here exactly as it does everywhere we work - in writing, not as a verbal assurance that disappears with the crew.
Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed under Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews, and they’re identified by name before arrival. The equipment we bring to Irving jobs - Rotobrush, Nikro, Honeywell, and Aprilaire systems among them - is named on your written scope so you can verify specifications independently. We don’t do coupon pricing or per-vent add-ons. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires one flat price per system, agreed in writing before the first panel comes off.
Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our Dallas-Fort Worth office, but crews serve Irving locally and carry common vent cap sizes, bird guards, and flex replacement stock for the specific failures we see here. That means fewer return trips and faster resolution for compressed runs in Las Colinas townhomes or bird-nest blockages on rural properties.
Our Dryer Vent Cleaning Services in Irving

Dryer Vent Inspection
Every job starts with a camera inspection of the full vent run, from the dryer connection to the exterior cap. In Irving’s 1950s-1970s ranch homes, we regularly find original sheet-metal runs with rusted seams or early-generation flex that has sagged below the joists, creating low points where lint and humidity collect. In Las Colinas townhomes, the inspection often reveals compressed flex routed through tight utility closets - runs that trap heat and lint against the back of the dryer. The camera shows what the eye cannot: a 3-inch debris build-up at the first elbow, a disconnected joint behind a finished wall, or a bird guard missing entirely. You receive the photo record as part of the standard job deliverable.

Vent Cleaning
Source removal, not surface wiping. For standard residential systems in Irving, we use Rotobrush agitation tools to break lint free from the duct walls, followed by Nikro negative-pressure extraction - a vacuum system that pulls debris through the vent pathway while HEPA filtration captures it at the exhaust point. The 100°F+ summer heat here bakes lint into a dense mat that shop-vac suction alone won’t dislodge; agitation is required. For the longer runs common in rural Irving properties, we extend the cleaning protocol to account for dust-and-pollen loading from unpaved roads that packs into lint and accelerates blockage.

Lint Removal
Lint that bypasses the trap is the hidden fire risk. On a 1970s ranch home in North Irving off Story Road, our tech used a camera inspection to trace a dryer vent run clogged with compacted lint that had bypassed the trap entirely, then employed agitation tools and negative pressure to pull the debris through the lint pathway and HEPA filtration the exhaust. The homeowner reported that dry cycles were taking nearly twice as long; after source removal and a bird guard installation on the exterior cap, airflow was restored and dry times dropped to normal. That documented photo record - before, during, after - is included on every visit.

Vent Rerouting
Some Irving homes were built with vent runs that no longer meet code or function safely. The 1980s-1990s townhome complexes near Las Colinas frequently route dryer vents through tight utility closets with multiple 90-degree turns that compress airflow and trap humidity. In older North Irving ranches, additions or garage conversions have left dryers venting into crawl spaces or attic cavities. We reroute to the shortest practical path with the fewest turns, using rigid metal duct where code requires it and documenting the new run with photos. The written price for rerouting is delivered before any demolition begins.

Bird Guard Installation
Irving’s mix of established tree canopy and open land near the Elm Fork corridor makes bird and rodent intrusion a recurring issue. The original vent caps on 1980s-90s Las Colinas townhomes almost never included bird guards; we replace those caps with guarded units that allow exhaust airflow while blocking nesting material. On rural properties, we see the same problem in outbuilding and detached garage vents. Installation is included in the written scope, and the guard model is specified so you know what you’re getting.

Vent Cap Replacement
Cracked, missing, or improperly flapped caps let rain, pollen, and pests into the vent run. In Irving’s prolonged summer heat, plastic caps degrade faster than in cooler markets; we replace them with metal units rated for the thermal cycling this climate demands. Each replacement is photographed and included in your job record.

Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush agitation systems, Nikro negative-pressure extractors, and Honeywell and Aprilaire air quality components - brands you can look up independently before agreeing to a price. We stock common vent cap sizes, bird guards, and flex duct replacement for the specific failures Irving’s housing stock produces: compressed 1980s flex in Las Colinas townhomes, rusted sheet-metal seams in North Irving ranches, and extended runs on rural properties that require additional cleaning passes. That local inventory means most jobs finish in a single visit with no waiting on parts.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Irving Homes

- Unpaved road dust packing into lint on rural fringe properties. Fine caliche and pollen from open land around Irving’s western and southern edges loads vent runs with material that standard lint traps don’t catch. The dust binds with lint into a dense, almost concrete-like blockage that requires agitation tools and extended negative-pressure extraction to remove.
- 100°F+ summers baking lint into dense mats in utility closets. Irving’s prolonged heat forces near-continuous AC cycling, which pulls dusty outside air through every crack and joint in the building envelope. Dryer vents in tight utility closets - common in Las Colinas townhomes - run hot for months, compressing lint against duct walls into a hardened layer that camera inspection reveals as a hidden fire risk.
- Compressed or kinked flex runs in 1980s-1990s townhome complexes. The Las Colinas building boom produced thousands of units with dryer vents routed through structural chases with minimal clearance. Decades of vibration and thermal cycling have kinked these runs, trapping humidity and lint while reducing airflow to the point that dry cycles extend to 90 minutes or more.
- Missing bird guards and active nesting on older properties. Original vent caps in Irving’s 1950s-1970s housing stock and 1980s townhome complexes rarely included bird guards. We find active nests, nesting debris, and even deceased animals blocking airflow - conditions that back carbon monoxide into living spaces and create immediate fire hazards.
Pricing for Dryer Vent Cleaning in Irving, TX
A standard residential dryer vent cleaning in Irving runs $149-$219 for a single-family system with accessible exterior termination and no rerouting required. Townhome and garden-apartment configurations with compressed flex runs or interior terminations typically fall in the $189-$259 range due to extended access time. Vent rerouting, cap replacement, or bird guard installation adds $40-$80 per component, with the full scope priced in writing before work begins.
What moves the number: length of the vent run, number of turns, accessibility (crawl space, attic, or interior chase), and the condition of existing materials. A 1970s ranch with a straight 15-foot run to an exterior wall costs less than a Las Colinas townhome with a compressed flex run through a utility closet and three 90-degree turns. We don’t do per-vent pricing or coupon teasers. Haven Standard Clause 1: one flat price per system, written and agreed before the first tool comes out.

FAQs - Dryer Vent Cleaning in Irving

Every 6-12 months, not the standard 12-18 month interval. The fine dust and pollen from unpaved roads around Irving’s rural fringe packs into lint and accelerates blockage beyond what suburban systems experience. A camera inspection every fall, before the heating season, will show whether your specific property needs the shorter cycle. Call (682) 297-4068 to schedule - estimates are free.
Yes, it’s one of the most common failure modes we see in Irving. The compressed flex runs in 1980s-1990s Las Colinas townhomes trap heat and humidity, baking lint into the duct walls and reducing airflow until dry cycles exceed 90 minutes. The confined space also makes DIY cleaning nearly impossible and increases fire risk. We reroute these runs to the shortest practical path where possible, or clean and guard them where rerouting isn’t feasible. The written scope explains exactly what your unit needs.
It bakes lint into a hardened mat that standard suction won’t remove. The continuous AC cycling pulls dusty outside air through every building joint, loading the vent run with additional material, while the utility closet temperatures common in Las Colinas townhomes keep the duct surface hot enough to fuse lint in place. Professional agitation tools and negative-pressure extraction are required to break this material free. We document the condition with camera photos before and after cleaning.
Camera inspection of the full run from dryer to cap, agitation cleaning of the lint pathway with Rotobrush tools, Nikro negative-pressure extraction with HEPA filtration, airflow verification at the exterior termination, and installation of a bird guard if the original cap lacks one. Many North Irving ranches still have original sheet-metal runs with rusted seams or early flex that has sagged below joists; we photograph these conditions and include repair or replacement in the written scope if needed. The entire job record, with before-and-after photos, is delivered to you as a standard deliverable.
Yes. We regularly clean extended vent runs on rural Irving properties where the dryer sits in a detached garage, workshop, or barn conversion. These runs face the same dust-and-pollen loading as the main house, often with additional lint accumulation from heavier use (farm work clothes, animal bedding). The protocol is identical: camera inspection, agitation cleaning, negative-pressure extraction, and bird guard installation on the exterior cap. The written price covers the full system, not a per-foot add-on. Call (682) 297-4068 for a scope tailored to your outbuilding configuration.
