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 Fulshear typically runs $150 – $280 for a standard single-family home, and our crews complete most jobs in under two hours with the dryer back in service the same day.

Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
We’ve been dispatching to Fulshear from our Houston office since the first master-planned communities broke ground, and we know the local housing stock inside out. Cross Creek Ranch, Fulshear Lakes, Weston Lakes – we’ve cleaned dryer vents in all of them. The new-construction flex duct runs, the long attic pathways, the plastic louver caps that builders install as an afterthought. In Fulshear, dryer vent problems don’t look like they do in older suburbs. The houses are new, but the installs are often rushed, and the symptoms show up faster than homeowners expect.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Fulshear’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
Our Dryer Vent Cleaning team serves Fulshear under The Garrison Standard, which means we arrive inside the quoted window, price the job in writing before touching anything, and leave the site clean. No exceptions. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and our phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week – no voicemail loops, no callback queues.
We carry the 365-Day Done Right Promise on every job. If the work fails within a year, we come back and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. That promise is backed in writing, not spoken and forgotten. We’ve built our reputation in Fulshear on operational specifics, not adjectives.
Dispatch and scheduling are coordinated from our Houston office, but our crews live and work in the Fulshear area. They know FM 359, they know the difference between a Cross Creek Ranch build and a Fulshear Lakes build, and they know which builders in this market tend to leave insulation scraps and soda bottles in the return plenums. That local knowledge saves time and prevents callbacks.
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Fulshear
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Fulshear covers multi-unit properties, laundromats, apartment complexes, and homeowner association laundry facilities where dryers run near-continuously and lint accumulation accelerates far beyond residential rates. In Fulshear’s growing rental market, particularly the townhome clusters near Cross Creek Ranch, commercial-grade cleaning is often required by property insurance and fire-code inspections every one to two years. A typical commercial dryer vent cleaning in Fulshear runs $300 – $650 depending on the number of units, duct length, and access difficulty.
Multi-Unit and HOA Laundry Facilities
Shared laundry rooms in Fulshear’s newer townhome developments see concentrated use that residential systems were never designed for. We clean the full lint pathway from the dryer connection to the exterior termination, document the condition with camera inspection, and provide written certification for property managers and HOA boards.
Restaurant and Light Commercial Kitchens
Fulshear’s commercial corridor along FM 359 includes restaurants and food-service operations with high-heat dryers for linens and uniforms. These systems require more frequent cleaning intervals and specialized agitation tools to handle the heavier lint loads and grease particulates that standard residential equipment can’t address.
Dryer Vent Cleaning Service in Fulshear
Dryer Vent Cleaning Service in Fulshear means source-removing lint and debris from the entire exhaust pathway – from the dryer connection, through the wall or attic duct, to the exterior termination cap – using professional-grade rotary brush systems and negative-air extraction. For a typical Fulshear single-family home, this service runs $150 – $280. Homes with long attic flex runs, roof terminations, or bird-guard installations may run $220 – $340 due to additional access time and equipment needs.
Camera Inspection and Condition Documentation
We run a Nikro camera through the full duct length before and after cleaning. You see what we see: the crushed flex at the attic bend, the lint mat against the louver, the insulation wad the builder left behind. This documentation matters for insurance claims and builder-warranty disputes.
Post-Flood Assessment and Replacement Recommendations
After Gulf-season flooding or roof leaks, Fulshear homeowners often call for a standard cleaning when the flex duct has actually taken on water and should be replaced, not cleaned. We document the water line, the microbial growth, and the structural compromise so your insurer accepts the replacement claim. Without that documentation, insurers push back every time.
Trusted Brands We Service in Fulshear
Our equipment roster includes Nikro negative-air machines and camera inspection systems, plus filtration and ventilation products from Honeywell and Aprilaire. We stock common termination caps, metal elbows, and bird guards for Fulshear’s predominant builder-grade flex-duct configurations, so most repairs don’t require a parts order and a return trip. When a vent run needs rerouting or a damaged section needs replacement, we use the same professional-grade components commercial crews rely on, and we explain exactly what each piece does for your dryer’s airflow and safety.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Fulshear Homes
- Crushed flex duct at attic bends. In Fulshear’s two-story master-planned homes, the long flex run to the roof often gets kinked against a truss during installation or settles into a sag over time. Lint collects at the low point, airflow collapses, and dry times creep from 45 minutes to two full cycles before anyone notices the problem is in the attic, not the dryer itself.
- Flimsy plastic louver caps that trap lint. Builders in communities like Fulshear Lakes frequently terminate dryer vents with cheap plastic louvers that don’t open fully under dryer pressure. Moist, lint-laden air backfills into the attic, creating a mold habitat and fire risk that looks fine from the ground.
- Construction debris left in new duct runs. We routinely pull drywall dust, insulation scraps, sawdust, and even snack wrappers from Fulshear’s 2019-and-newer homes. The “new house smell” homeowners blame on paint is often construction dust cooking off the heat exchanger and circulating through an uncapped return.
- Post-flood flex duct that needs replacement, not cleaning. After hurricane-season water intrusion or roof leaks, Fulshear’s unconditioned attic spaces stay humid for weeks. Flex duct that has absorbed water develops mold inside the corrugated walls. Cleaning it spreads spores through the system. We document the damage with camera footage and written assessment so your insurer covers the replacement.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Fulshear
Yes, and often more urgently than an older home. In Fulshear’s 2010s-and-newer builds, we regularly find drywall dust, insulation scraps, sawdust, and even debris the builder never removed from the duct run before turnover. The flex duct may also be crushed at an attic bend or terminated with a flimsy plastic louver that traps lint. We recommend a camera inspection within the first two years of ownership to catch what the builder’s walkthrough missed. Call (361) 326-5060 to schedule.
If the flex duct has absorbed water, it needs replacement, not cleaning. Water wicks into the corrugated walls of flex duct and creates a mold habitat that cleaning alone can’t fix – agitating wet flex spreads spores through your system. We run a camera inspection to document the water line, check for microbial growth, and assess structural integrity. If replacement is warranted, we provide written documentation with timestamped footage that insurers accept for claim approval. Call (361) 326-5060 for a post-flood assessment.
Fulshear sits on the Gulf Coastal Prairie with hot, humid summers and mild winters that keep HVAC systems running near year-round. Unconditioned attics here reach brutal temperatures, and the humidity makes lint cling to flex-duct walls instead of flowing freely to the termination. The result is faster accumulation, more frequent blockages, and higher fire risk than in drier climates. We see more lint matting and moisture-related restrictions in Fulshear than in Houston’s older, drier-built suburbs.
Yes. We provide Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning for multi-unit laundry facilities, laundromats, and light commercial kitchens in Fulshear and the surrounding area. These systems require more frequent service intervals, specialized agitation tools for heavy lint loads, and written certification for property insurance and fire-code compliance. Typical commercial pricing runs $300 – $650 depending on unit count and access. Call (361) 326-5060 for a commercial quote.
Sometimes, but only if you document the defect properly. Most Fulshear builder warranties cover defects in workmanship for one to two years, and a crushed flex duct or improper termination qualifies. We provide camera inspection footage, a written condition assessment, and a repair estimate that meets warranty submission requirements. If the builder pushes back, our documentation gives you evidence that holds up. We don’t negotiate with builders on your behalf, but we make sure you have the technical documentation to do it yourself. Call (361) 326-5060 to start the inspection process.
