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.
Fast, Reliable Dryer Vent Cleaning Across Pflugerville
Dryer vent cleaning in Pflugerville typically runs $150 – $280 for a standard single-family home, and most jobs are scheduled within a few business days. If your dryer is taking longer than one cycle, your lint trap is clean but clothes still come out damp, or you haven’t had the vent run cleared in over a year, the blockage is likely past the filter where you can’t reach it.
We serve Pflugerville from our Austin dispatch office, and our crews know the area’s housing stock inside out. From the original 1980s tract homes in Windermere and Highland Park to the newer master-planned communities in Falcon Pointe and Blackhawk, we’ve cleaned dryer vents in homes built across four decades of rapid growth. That local knowledge matters because Pflugerville’s heavy clay soil and high water table create problems you won’t find in Austin’s limestone-heavy west side. Foundation movement pinches vent runs. Attic heat above 140°F softens flex duct until it sags and traps lint. And too many new homes still have construction debris in the vent from the builder’s rough-in. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate, or keep reading to understand what you’re actually paying for and why it matters here.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Pflugerville’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
We’ve been in business since 2004 as part of the Garrison Partners family, and our Dryer Vent Cleaning team has built a reputation in Pflugerville by showing up when we said we would, pricing in writing before any work starts, and leaving the site clean. That’s The Garrison Standard, and it applies to every job.
Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. You know who’s walking into your home before they arrive. Our phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week – no voicemail loops, no callback queues, no waiting until Monday for someone to pick up.
Every repair and cleaning we perform in Pflugerville is backed by our 365-Day Done Right Promise. If the work fails within a year, we come back and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. We put that in writing on every job, not as a verbal assurance that disappears when the van leaves your driveway.
We use professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, and Abatement Technologies – the same tools commercial crews use, not hardware-store gear. And we explain what we’re doing in plain terms while we’re on the job, so you understand what we found and what we fixed.
Dryer Vent Inspection in Pflugerville
Dryer Vent Inspection in Pflugerville is where we always start, because you can’t clean what you haven’t seen. Our technician runs a borescope camera through the full vent run from the dryer connection to the exterior termination, documenting blockages, construction debris, disconnected joints, and damage from Pflugerville’s clay-soil foundation movement. A typical inspection runs $89 – $129, and if you proceed with cleaning, we credit that toward the service.
Camera Documentation
We record what the camera sees and show it to you before and after the work. In Pflugerville’s newer subdivisions like Falcon Pointe, we regularly find drywall dust packed into attic elbows that the builder never cleared. In older neighborhoods like Windermere, we see flex duct that has collapsed into insulation from decades of attic heat cycling. You see exactly what we see. No guesswork.
Written Findings and Options
After the inspection, you get a written summary of what we found, what it means for your dryer’s performance and safety, and what your options are. The price for any recommended work is written down before we touch a tool. It does not move at the door. That’s The Garrison Standard, and it’s how we’ve operated since 2004.
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Pflugerville
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Pflugerville covers multi-unit laundry rooms, laundromats, apartment complexes, and any business where dryers run continuously and lint accumulates fast. These systems have longer runs, more elbows, and higher fire-risk loading than residential vents, and they’re governed by NFPA 211 and local fire code inspection schedules. A typical commercial cleaning in Pflugerville runs $300 – $650 depending on run length, access difficulty, and whether we need to clean multiple termination points.
Code-Compliant Documentation
We provide written documentation of the cleaning scope, before-and-after photos, and any deficiencies we find for your fire inspector or property insurer. Property managers in Pflugerville’s rental-heavy neighborhoods like Highland Park use these reports to demonstrate due diligence. The paperwork is part of the service, not an extra charge.
Scheduled Maintenance Programs
High-volume facilities can set up recurring cleanings on intervals we recommend based on your actual lint accumulation rate. We track each unit’s condition visit to visit, so you catch problems before they become emergency calls or insurance claims. Predictable maintenance beats unpredictable downtime.
Trusted Brands We Service in Pflugerville
We stock parts and service dryer vent systems connected to major HVAC and filtration brands including Aprilaire, Abatement Technologies, and Guardsman. If your vent termination, bird guard, or cap needs replacement during a cleaning, we typically have the correct fitting on the truck and can complete the repair same visit. That matters in Pflugerville, where the summer heat makes a second trip an unnecessary delay. We don’t order parts and make you wait. Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines – professional-grade tools that agitate and extract debris without damaging your vent run. When we leave, the system is clean, intact, and documented.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Pflugerville Homes
- Construction debris in new homes. In Falcon Pointe and Blackhawk, builders often leave drywall dust and wood scraps in the vent rough-in. The first few loads of lint bind to this debris and form a solid plug in the attic elbow before the homeowner ever suspects a problem. A surface cleaning of the lint trap won’t touch it.
- Slab movement pinching flex duct. Pflugerville’s heavy clay soil shifts with moisture changes, and that movement transfers to slab-built homes. We’ve found vent runs in Windermere and Highland Park pinched so tight that only a pencil-width of air could pass, while lint escaped into the attic through cracked sealant at the termination.
- Attic heat sagging unsupported duct. Pflugerville attics hit 140°F+ for months each summer. That heat softens flexible duct until it sags between supports, creating low points where lint accumulates. A routine cleaning that doesn’t address the sag just lets the problem rebuild faster.
- Buried or damaged terminations. Foundation movement and landscaping changes in Pflugerville’s newer communities often bury the exterior vent cap in shifting soil or mulch, blocking airflow and creating a moisture trap that accelerates lint compaction. We excavate, repair, and install proper clearance.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Pflugerville
Yes, and probably more urgently than an older home. Builders rarely clean the vent rough-in after construction, and drywall dust mixed with your first loads of lint forms a dense plug that restricts airflow and overheats the dryer. We find this in two-year-old Pflugerville homes regularly. Call (361) 326-5060 for an inspection – estimates are free.
Your dryer is working against itself. When the vent is partially blocked, the hot, humid air can’t escape efficiently, and Pflugerville’s 100°F+ outdoor temperatures reduce the temperature differential that drives exhaust airflow. The thermal fuse may be cycling to protect the motor. A clean vent restores single-cycle drying even in peak summer. Call (361) 326-5060 and we’ll check the amp draw and airflow.
Pflugerville’s heavy clay expands and contracts with moisture, causing slab movement that pinches flexible duct and cracks sealant at the exterior termination. Lint escapes into the attic instead of reaching the outside, creating both a fire hazard and a moisture problem. Our camera inspection finds these separation points that a surface cleaning misses. Call (361) 326-5060 for an assessment.
We clean the full run from each dryer connection to the exterior termination, using rotary brush agitation and negative-air extraction to remove lint loading that continuous operation produces. We document the work for fire code compliance and inspect for damage from vibration and thermal cycling. Typical cost is $300 – $650. Call (361) 326-5060 to schedule or set up a maintenance program.
Yes, with written authorization and lockbox or tenant coordination. We photograph the work, provide documentation for your records, and charge the same written price we’d quote if you were present. Many Pflugerville property managers use this service to maintain their units between tenants and satisfy insurance requirements. Call (361) 326-5060 to arrange access.
