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.

Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Katy Is Brookshire’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
We’ve been in Brookshire homes since 2013, and the pattern is consistent: dryer vents here fail differently than they do in drier markets.

We’ve served more than 52,000 homes since founding, each with a written price agreed before work started and a documented photo record delivered at completion.
Scheduling is coordinated from our Houston office, with crews running dedicated routes through Waller County. We know the difference between a 1960s wood-frame near downtown Brookshire and a 2010s slab foundation off I-10, and we adjust our inspection approach accordingly.
Our Dryer Vent Cleaning Services in Brookshire
Dryer Vent Inspection
Every Brookshire inspection begins with a camera run through the full vent pathway, from the dryer connection to the exterior cap. In post-Harvey homes that were dried but not gutted, we’ve found compacted flood sediment and microbial growth inside flexible vent runs that looked intact from the outside. Our tech was called to a 1970s wood-frame home off the US-90 corridor in Brookshire where the dryer took two cycles and the laundry room smelled musty after Harvey remediation. Camera inspection inside the flexible vent run showed compacted silt and matted lint from the flood, so we used agitation tools under negative pressure with HEPA filtration to pull the debris out and replaced the crushed vent cap with a Guardsman bird guard. The homeowner said the dryer finished in one cycle for the first time in years. The inspection includes a written scope and photo documentation before any cleaning is proposed.
Vent Cleaning
Real vent cleaning in Brookshire means source removal with agitation tools, not a shop-vac at the termination cap. Gulf humidity keeps post-Harvey sediment damp, so lint clumps instead of blowing clear. We use Rotobrush agitation systems and Nikro negative-pressure extractors to dislodge and capture this material. The 140°F attic temperatures in Brookshire’s newer tract homes bake lint deposits onto duct walls; agitation breaks that bond so extraction can remove it. Every cleaning concludes with a documented photo record showing the cleared run, delivered as part of the standard job record.
Lint Removal
Lint in Brookshire behaves differently than in drier climates. Waller County’s mid-70s°F dew points from May through October mean moisture-laden lint sticks to duct walls instead of passing through. In homes near the Brazos River flood plain, we’ve removed lint packed with silt that accumulated after Harvey and was never fully cleared during remediation. Our crews use HEPA-filtered containment so dislodged material doesn’t enter your living space during extraction.
Vent Rerouting
Some Brookshire homes, particularly the 2000s-2010s slab-foundation builds with long attic runs, were originally vented with pathways that trap moisture and lint. When camera inspection shows crushed, excessively long, or improperly sloped runs, rerouting may be the only permanent fix. We quote rerouting with a written price before any demolition begins, and we photograph the new installation for the job record.
Vent Cap Replacement
Brookshire’s coastal prairie location means bird guards and vent caps corrode faster than inland. We stock Guardsman bird guards and replacement caps sized for common Brookshire installations, so most replacements happen same visit. A crushed or missing cap is often the first sign of a blocked run, and replacing it without clearing the duct is like changing a clogged filter without checking the line.
Bird Guard Installation
Swallows and sparrows nest in vent terminations across Waller County, especially in homes with mature trees near the US-90 corridor. Our Guardsman bird guards prevent nesting without restricting airflow, and we verify proper back-pressure after installation.

Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Brookshire Homes
- Post-Harvey sediment packed in flex duct. Homes remediated after 2017 but not fully gutted often have dryer vent runs containing compacted flood silt that looks intact from outside. Gulf humidity keeps this material damp, so lint adheres and clogs form faster than in dry ductwork.
- Attic runs baking in 140°F summer heat. Brookshire’s newer tract homes route vents through superheated attic spaces where lint bakes onto duct walls. Without agitation cleaning, this material never fully extracts with suction alone.
- Crushed or disconnected runs behind slab walls. In 2000s-2010s builds, long vent pathways through attic and wall cavities get compressed by insulation or building movement. No camera inspection means these restrictions go undiagnosed until the dryer overheats.
- Corroded or missing vent caps admitting birds and moisture. Coastal prairie humidity accelerates cap deterioration. Missing caps let rain directly into the run, and bird nests compound the blockage.
Pricing for Dryer Vent Cleaning in Brookshire, TX
A standard dryer vent cleaning in Brookshire runs $180-$280 for a single-story home with accessible attic or crawl space. Two-story homes or runs exceeding 25 feet typically fall in the $260-$340 range. Vent rerouting, when needed, is quoted separately after camera inspection, with written pricing before any work begins under Haven Standard Clause 1.
What moves the price: length of the vent run, accessibility (crawl space vs. finished attic), condition of the material (post-Harvey sediment requires more agitation time), and whether the vent cap or bird guard needs replacement. We do not quote per-vent or per-foot pricing. One flat price per system, agreed in writing, before any panel comes off.

FAQs - Dryer Vent Cleaning in Brookshire
Brookshire’s position in the Brazos River flood plain and at the edge of Houston’s coastal prairie means higher sustained humidity than Katy experiences. Waller County dew points in the mid-70s°F keep lint damp and sticky inside vent runs, so it adheres to duct walls instead of passing through. If your home was remediated after Harvey but not gutted, compacted sediment in the flex duct accelerates this clumping. Call (346) 666-7165 for a camera inspection that will show exactly what’s inside your run.
Yes. Technicians working post-Harvey remediations in Brookshire frequently find that crawl-space and floor-joist duct runs were dried and treated but never replaced, leaving compacted sediment and microbial growth inside flexible duct that looks intact from outside. A camera inspection is the only way to verify condition. We include the inspection photos in your documented job record, and we quote any needed cleaning with a written price before starting work.
No. Fogging masks odor but leaves flood-compacted lint and microbial growth untouched inside the vent run. Source removal with agitation tools under negative pressure is what actually clears the material. In Brookshire’s post-Harvey housing stock, where Gulf humidity keeps runs damp, fogging is particularly ineffective because it doesn’t remove the moisture-trapping debris that causes recurring problems. We don’t sell fogging as a substitute for mechanical cleaning.
Camera inspection reveals crushed, excessively long, or improperly sloped runs that will re-clog regardless of cleaning quality. In Brookshire’s 2000s-2010s slab-foundation tract homes, we often find runs with multiple elbows or sagging flex duct that creates lint traps. If the camera shows these structural issues, we’ll quote rerouting with a written price before any work begins. Cleaning a fundamentally flawed pathway wastes your money.
A proper cleaning includes camera inspection of the full run, agitation-based source removal with HEPA-filtered negative-pressure extraction, airflow verification with a manometer, and replacement of damaged caps or bird guards as needed. For Brookshire homes with post-Harvey history, we specifically check for compacted sediment at elbows and transitions. You receive a documented photo record of the cleared run and a written scope of work as standard deliverables, backed by our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Call (346) 666-7165 for a free estimate.
