Dryer Vent Cleaning in Schertz - One Price, Measured Results

Fast, Reliable Dryer Vent Cleaning Across Schertz

Dryer vent cleaning in Schertz typically costs between $149 and $289 for a full system clean, and most jobs are completed in under two hours. The limestone dust that drifts off the Balcones Escarpment settles into dryer exhaust runs here, mixing with humidity to form a paste that hardens faster than lint in San Antonio or Cibolo. We know exactly what that looks like because we see it every week in Schertz homes. Call (903) 354-8393 for a free estimate, and we’ll give you a written price before any work starts.

Why Mortons Air Duct San Antonio Is Schertz’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company

Since 2005, Mortons Air Duct Cleaning has built its reputation in the Schertz area by doing the job completely and showing you proof when it’s done. Our technicians don’t rush through a vent run and call it good. They use Rotobrush agitation tools paired with a negative-pressure HEPA extraction unit, then run a camera through before and after so you see exactly what came out and what stayed behind. That camera footage matters in a place like Schertz, where homeowners in newer subdivisions rarely think about a dryer vent until the dryer starts taking twice as long to dry a load.

Paul Adeyemi, who leads our team, holds every job to the Cedarwell Care Promise. That means background-checked, uniformed technicians, drop cloths placed where the work happens, quiet tools when a toddler is napping down the hall, and a photo of the clean-up before the crew leaves. Every completed job also includes a copy of our 365-Day Done Right Promise: if it isn’t right, we make it right. That promise is stamped on the paperwork, not just talked about.

Dispatching and scheduling for Schertz are coordinated from our San Antonio office, so when you call, a live person answers and can usually get a crew to Schertz within one business day. We serve the entire Schertz area on a regular schedule, which means our techs already know where the tight attic turns and eave-mounted vent terminations are in this city’s newer housing stock.

Dryer Vent Inspection in Schertz

Dryer Vent Inspection in Schertz is a camera walkthrough of your entire exhaust run, from the back of the dryer to the exterior hood, and it typically runs $79 when booked on its own or is included with a full cleaning at no extra charge. We recommend it for Schertz homeowners who just bought a home off FM 1518 or in the newer subdivisions north of Randolph AFB, because the previous owner’s vent condition is rarely on the disclosure sheet. The inspection shows you blockages, bird or wasp activity, disconnected joints, and any sagging flex duct that’s trapping lint along the run.

In Schertz specifically, inspection matters more than most people expect. The city’s housing boom produced a lot of cookie-cutter homes with vent runs that pass through unconditioned attics, where summer heat bakes the flex duct and the limestone dust inside it. A vent that hasn’t been cleaned in four or five years often looks like it’s lined with dried clay, and a quick camera pass tells you if a standard cleaning will suffice or if a more involved approach is needed.

When Schertz homeowners need it

You should schedule an inspection if your dryer takes more than one cycle to dry towels, if the laundry room gets hot or smells musty while the dryer runs, or if you see lint accumulating around the vent hood outside. If you’ve lived in your home for three years and have never had the vent checked, the inspection has probably already paid for itself in dryer run time.

What you get afterward

After the camera pass, you get a clear verbal and written summary, plus still photos of anything we found. If we find a restriction, we recommend the repair or cleaning needed and give you the price before we touch anything. If the vent is clean, we tell you that too and you don’t pay for work you don’t need.

Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Schertz

Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Schertz is for laundromats, apartment complexes, fire stations, and any business or multifamily property with stacked or multi-dryer venting, and the cost depends on the number of dryers and run lengths, with typical commercial jobs starting at $240 and most properties of four dryers or fewer coming in under $600. We clean the full run from dryer connection to exterior termination on every unit, one flat price per system agreed before work starts.

For property managers in Schertz, especially those overseeing apartments along Schertz Parkway or commercial strips near I-35, a clogged dryer vent is a liability and a maintenance headache rolled into one. Lint fires in commercial dryers are a known risk, and the combination of heavy daily use and Schertz’s limestone dust means accumulate happens fast. We schedule recurring commercial cleaning quarterly or semi-annually, and we provide photo documentation after every visit for your records.

What commercial jobs include

Each commercial visit includes camera inspection of every vent run, removal of lint and any nesting material, checking all joints and hood assemblies, and a written report with before-and-after photos. We work around your business hours, and for properties with back-to-back closets stacked vertically, we can access roof or eave terminations safely with our own equipment.

Why property managers call us back

Most of our Schertz commercial clients came to us after another company quoted low and then billed per vent, per foot, and per access point. We don’t do that. The price we write down before we start is the price on the invoice. That approach keeps building supers and owners from dreading the phone call when the quarterly vent maintenance comes due.

Trusted Brands We Service in Schertz

The dryer vents we clean in Schertz connect to every major dryer brand, and the quality of our equipment is why the cleaning actually works. We run Rotobrush rotating brush systems through the full exhaust run, paired with a Nikro negative air machine that keeps loosened debris from settling back into the pipe. For ducts where we do combined HVAC work, our crews also use Guardsman and Abatement Technologies equipment. Because Schertz is a regular service area for us, our trucks are stocked with the connectors, hoods, and bird guards we commonly replace here, so most jobs are finished in a single visit. We also carry Lennox in Schertz parts when HVAC work is part of the visit.

Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Schertz Homes

• Limestone dust and lint paste. The limestone dust that settles across Schertz from the Balcones Escarpment mixes with humid air inside the vent and forms a dense, hard residue that a standard household shop vac can’t pull out. We use powered agitation, not suction alone, to break it free.
• Bird and wasp nests in eave-mounted terminations. Newer Schertz subdivisions often vent dryers through the eave rather than a wall cap. These terminations are prime spots for starlings, sparrows, and paper wasps, and a nest partially blocking the outlet is common enough that we check every eave vent with a camera before we start.
• Sagging flex duct in hot attics. Most homes built in Schertz since the 1990s use flexible foil duct in the attic. Summer attic temperatures regularly exceed 130°F, which weakens the foil and lets the duct sag, creating a low spot where lint piles up until the run blocks itself.
• A “cleaned” vent that wasn’t. We hear this from Schertz homeowners all the time: a previous company ran a shop vac with a brush attachment for twenty minutes and declared the vent clean. Without negative pressure and a camera to verify, loosened lint just settles back into the run, and the dryer still takes two cycles to dry a load.
