Dryer vent cleaning in Selma typically costs $140-$280 for a standard single-family home, and most jobs are completed in under two hours with a written price agreed before any work starts. If your dryer is taking longer to dry clothes, running hotter than usual, or you’ve never had the vent run inspected since moving in, the problem is usually a blocked lint pathway rather than a failing appliance.

CleanRun crews serve Selma from our San Antonio office, and we’ve worked in subdivisions from The Ridge at Selma to the Mesa Vista and Retama Park areas. The housing stock here is almost entirely post-2000 construction, which means the contamination story in Selma isn’t decades of settled grime - it’s construction debris left inside flex duct systems before the first family ever moved in. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning team documents every run with before-and-after photos, so you can verify what was actually removed.

Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning New Braunfels Is Selma’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company

We’ve been in Selma homes since 2013, and the pattern is consistent: production-built houses with attic-routed flex duct that was kinked, compressed, or left full of drywall dust during a compressed build schedule. Our customers here don’t need a sales pitch - they need someone who understands that a two-year-old home can have worse airflow than a twenty-year-old one.

Every CleanRun technician is background-checked, uniformed, and identified by name before arrival - Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews. We publish our pricing in writing before work starts, every time, under Haven Standard Clause 1. No “call for a quote.” No per-vent add-ons. One flat price per system, documented on the work order you sign before we touch a panel.

The 365-Day Done Right Promise applies to every Selma job in writing, not as a verbal assurance. If the work isn’t right, we make it right. Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush agitation systems, Nikro HEPA-filtered negative-pressure extractors, and Honeywell airflow verification tools - brands you can look up independently before we arrive.

Dispatch and scheduling for Selma are coordinated from our San Antonio office, with crews carrying the full equipment load for same-visit inspection and cleaning.

Our Dryer Vent Cleaning Services in Selma

Dryer Vent Inspection

A proper inspection in Selma starts with a camera run through the full lint pathway, not a flashlight glance at the exterior cap. In the tract homes built along I-35 and Loop 1604 during the 2000s-2010s boom, we’ve found kinked flex duct behind air handler platforms, construction dust packed at the first elbow, and vent caps installed without bird guards - all invisible from the laundry room. The inspection delivers a Documented Photo Record of the full run, dated and included in your job record. If the vent is clear, we’ll show you that too. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires the written price before any cleaning work begins, so the inspection quote is separate and upfront.

Vent Cleaning

Our vent cleaning process uses agitation tools under negative pressure with HEPA filtration - we dislodge material from the duct walls and pull it out, rather than pushing it deeper or leaving it in the system. In Selma’s corrugated flex duct, this matters because lint mixed with drywall dust and caliche particles forms a dense plug that standard brushes often compress rather than remove. We verify airflow recovery with a calibrated meter before signing off. Every cleaning concludes with the Documented Photo Record: dated before-and-after images of the full run, delivered as part of the standard job record.

Lint Removal

Lint accumulation in Selma homes accelerates faster than owners expect. Cedar pollen season runs December through February in the Ashe juniper belt, and families running more laundry during those months push additional particulate through the system. When that pollen load meets construction debris already in the duct, the result is a packed pathway that restricts airflow and forces the dryer to run longer and hotter. We remove the full accumulation, not just the accessible portion near the termination cap. The photo record shows the volume and type of material removed - no guessing, no trust-me language.

Vent Rerouting

Some Selma homes have dryer vent runs that were never routed optimally during construction - too many elbows, excessive horizontal runs in the attic, or terminations that create back-pressure. When inspection shows the layout itself is the problem, we quote rerouting with a written scope and price before any structural work. Rerouting in Selma’s slab-on-grade homes typically involves accessing the attic space above the laundry room and installing rigid or semi-rigid duct where flex was originally used. The work is photographed at each stage and backed by the 365-Day Done Right Promise.

Bird Guard Installation

Exterior vent caps in Selma are frequently missing or damaged bird guards after the first year, especially in subdivisions with mature tree cover near Retama Park. Nesting material blocks the termination point right when cedar pollen season sends families to the laundry room more often. We stock bird guards matched to common vent cap profiles found in local production builds, and installation is quoted as a line item if needed. The guard is photographed installed, and the warranty covers both the guard and the seal.

Vent Cap Replacement

Cracked, painted-shut, or improperly screened vent caps are common in Selma’s newer homes where builders used minimum-spec terminations. We carry replacements that meet current IRC guidelines for backdraft prevention and pest exclusion, and we photograph the old and new cap as part of the job record. Replacement is quoted in writing before installation.

Trusted Brands We Service in Selma

CleanRun technicians in Selma work with professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, and Honeywell - brands recognized in the duct cleaning trade for documented performance, not marketing claims. Rotobrush agitation systems handle the corrugated flex duct common in Selma’s production-built homes without damaging the thin-wall material. Nikro HEPA-filtered extractors maintain negative pressure during cleaning, preventing debris release into the living space. Honeywell airflow meters verify actual recovery, not estimated improvement. We don’t claim these tools do anything their manufacturers don’t publish, and we name them so you can verify specifications before agreeing to a price.

Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Selma Homes

• Kinked attic flex duct acting as a debris dam. In Selma’s fast-built subdivisions, the dryer vent run is often roughed in during the same compressed schedule as the HVAC flex ducts. The kink traps lint and construction dust where standard cleaning brushes can’t reach without camera guidance.
• Drywall dust and caliche forming dense plugs. New-construction debris left in the corrugated flex duct mixes with lint to create a restriction that mimics a failing blower motor or heating element. Homeowners replace appliances before checking the vent.
• Missing bird guards after year one. Nesting material blocks the termination point, often discovered when drying times spike during cedar pollen season - December through February - when laundry volume is already elevated.
• Excessive elbows and horizontal runs from poor original routing. Each 90-degree elbow adds equivalent length to the vent run; Selma homes with three or more elbows often exceed the 25-foot equivalent limit in IRC guidelines, compounding any blockage.
