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.

We’re the Dryer Vent Cleaning team at Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning, and we’ve been serving Parker County since 2005.

Call us at (323) 918-4345 for a free written estimate before any work starts.
Why Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning Is Aledo’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
We’ve built our reputation in Aledo by treating homes the way we’d want our own treated. Our technicians arrive in uniform with shoe covers and drop cloths already in hand, and we schedule around nap times when you mention kids or pets on the call. Every visit starts with a written price agreed before anyone touches your dryer, and ends with a photo of the clean-up sent to your phone before the crew pulls out of the driveway.
The Cedarwell Care Promise governs every job we run here, not just the ones where customers ask. That means background-checked crews, quiet tools when we can use them, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise stamped on your invoice, not offered only if you complain. We’ve learned the specific failure patterns of Aledo’s 2000s-2020s construction boom homes, the long vent runs in 3,000+ sq ft floorplans, and the way Parker County red clay dust infiltrates laundry rooms during active grading next door. That local knowledge saves time and prevents the guesswork that turns a simple cleaning into a return visit.
A live person answers our phones 24 hours a day. No voicemail trees, no chatbots. When you call (323) 918-4345, you’re talking to someone who can see our Aledo route schedule and book you a specific arrival window.
Dryer Vent Cleaning Service in Aledo
Dryer Vent Cleaning Service in Aledo addresses a problem most homeowners here don’t expect in a newer home: construction-phase debris still lodged in the vent run from the day the builder handed over the keys. Our process begins with a camera inspection of the full run, from the back of your dryer to the wall cap, so we can show you exactly what’s restricting airflow before we quote a price. We then agitate the interior with a Rotobrush mechanical whip, extract loosened material under negative pressure through HEPA filtration, and verify restored airflow with a digital anemometer reading you can see. For Aledo’s typical 2,000-4,000+ sq ft homes with long second-floor laundry runs, this often means addressing multiple elbows and sag points where caliche dust and lint have compacted together.
Camera Inspection and Debris Identification
We run a flexible borescope down every vent before we quote. In Aledo, roughly two in three camera inspections on newer homes reveal rust-colored caliche fines and drywall dust rather than the gray lint homeowners expect. Seeing the actual contaminant on screen lets us explain why your dryer is underperforming and what it will take to fix it, with no surprises once work begins.
HEPA Extraction and Airflow Verification
Our Nikro portable extraction systems pull debris through filtered collection, not just blown into your garage or attic. After cleaning, we measure airflow at the wall cap and compare it to the dryer’s manufacturer spec. You get the before and after numbers, plus a photo of the extracted material, before we pack up.
Dryer Vent Installation in Aledo
Dryer Vent Installation in Aledo often becomes necessary when the original builder run doesn’t match how the family actually uses the laundry space, or when a crushed flex transition behind the dryer has created a permanent lint trap. We replace damaged or code-deficient runs with rigid metal ducting sized to your dryer’s CFM rating, seal all joints with foil tape (never screws that catch lint), and terminate with a proper wall cap or roof jack suited to Aledo’s wind exposure and the active construction dust in newer subdivisions. Typical installation costs in Aledo range from $300-$650 depending on run length, access difficulty, and whether we’re routing through an exterior wall or attic space.
Transition Replacement and Rigid Upgrades
The flex hose behind your dryer is the most failure-prone component in the system. We replace crushed or over-long transitions with smooth rigid pipe or UL-listed semi-rigid where code allows, eliminating the sag points where Aledo’s fine caliche dust settles and hardens.
Wall Cap and Bird Guard Installation
We install vent caps with integrated bird guards that don’t clog with lint, and we position them to stay clear of new grading as adjacent lots develop. In Aledo’s active construction zones, this matters. A cap buried by fresh fill or blinded by dust can read as a clean vent on a quick check while still restricting airflow by 40 percent.
Trusted Brands We Service in Aledo
Our trucks carry professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, and Abatement Technologies, not the rental-grade tools available at the hardware store in Weatherford. We stock rigid duct, transition fittings, and wall caps sized for the high-CFM dryers common in Aledo’s larger new homes, which means most installation jobs are completed same visit without a parts run. For HEPA filtration and containment, we specify Abatement Technologies portable units on jobs where construction dust volume is high, protecting your home’s air quality while we work. When we mention Guardsman products, it’s for the protective coverings we lay on floors and laundry counters before we start. Every piece of equipment is chosen for the specific conditions we find in Parker County homes.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Aledo Homes
- Construction debris packed in new-build vent runs. Because most Aledo homes were finished while adjacent lots were still bare graded dirt, dryer vents here are commonly clogged with a rust-colored mix of caliche fines and drywall dust carried into the laundry room during construction, not the gray household lint most homeowners expect.
- Over-long second-floor runs exceeding effective length. The 2,000-4,000+ sq ft floorplans popular in Aledo subdivisions often place laundry rooms upstairs with vent runs past 35 feet. Lint and dust settle at elbows and the wall cap where the dryer’s blower can’t push it through, creating blockages invisible from the laundry room.
- Wall caps compromised by ongoing construction activity. Technicians working Aledo subdivisions near actively developing sections of FM 1187 and Willow Park Road routinely find caps partially buried by new grading or blinded by red clay dust, so even a recently cleaned vent reads restricted when the next phase starts up next door.
- Crushed flex transitions acting as permanent lint traps. The transition hose behind the dryer gets kinked during installation or pushed flat against the wall. In Aledo’s homes, this sag point collects the fine caliche dust that settles out of turbulent airflow, hardening into a packed mass that no homeowner tool can reach.
Pricing for Dryer Vent Cleaning in Aledo, TX
A standard dryer vent cleaning in Aledo runs $150-$275 for a single-family home with one laundry location and accessible exterior wall cap. Dryer vent installation or rerouting, common in Aledo’s larger homes with problematic original runs, typically costs $300-$650 depending on linear feet, access difficulty, and materials. Bird guard installation or wall cap replacement adds $75-$150 when done as part of a cleaning visit.
What moves you within these ranges? Run length is the biggest factor. A straight 8-foot through-wall vent in a ranch-style home near Aledo’s older core takes less time than a 40-foot second-floor run with three elbows in a newer subdivision off Willow Park Road. Construction debris volume matters too. A vent packed with hardened caliche dust requires more agitation cycles and longer extraction time than a routine lint clearing. We quote your specific job after camera inspection, and the written price we give you is the price on the invoice. No per-foot add-ons, no vent-count surcharges, no surprises when the crew is already in your laundry room.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Aledo
Because most Aledo homes were finished while adjacent lots were still bare graded dirt, construction-phase caliche dust and drywall debris frequently remain in the vent run from handover. Roughly two in three Aledo dryer vent runs we camera-inspect on newer homes in active subdivisions off FM 1187 and Willow Park Road are still holding this builder-left debris. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free camera inspection and written quote.
Aledo homeowners in active construction zones should plan on an initial cleaning within the first 12-18 months of occupancy, then every 2-3 years thereafter, which is slightly more frequent than the 3-5 year interval typical in built-out suburbs. The ongoing caliche dust from nearby grading operations adds particulate load you won’t find in established Tarrant County neighborhoods. Call (323) 918-4345 to schedule your first inspection.
Yes, immediately. During our camera inspection, rust-colored caliche fines and drywall dust show as a distinct reddish-brown packed mass, while household lint appears gray and fibrous. We’ve identified Parker County soil as the primary contaminant in vents where homeowners assumed they had a dryer mechanical problem. Call (323) 918-4345 and we’ll show you on screen exactly what’s in your run.
Our cleaning involves camera inspection, mechanical agitation with a Rotobrush whip, negative-pressure HEPA extraction, and digital airflow verification before we leave. We protect your floors with drop cloths, work around your schedule if kids or pets need quiet hours, and send you a photo of the clean-up before the crew departs. Call (323) 918-4345 for a written price on your specific job.
In Aledo’s newer homes, restricted airflow from a clogged vent is the culprit at least 80 percent of the time, not the dryer itself. On a handover-era home in a newer subdivision just off FM 1187, the owners had lived there eight months and their dryer was throwing a ‘check vent’ code and taking two cycles to dry towels. We ran a camera inspection down the run and found a compressed column of red Parker County caliche dust and drywall fines packed against a sag in the flex transition, with a bird guard at the wall cap half blinded by it. We pulled the run apart, agitated the interior with our Rotobrush whip, extracted under negative pressure with HEPA filtration, replaced the crushed transition with rigid pipe, and the dryer’s airflow reading came back to spec the same visit. Call (323) 918-4345 if your dryer’s showing the same symptoms.
