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 Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning Is Van Alstyne’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
Van Alstyne homeowners know us for showing up in uniform, putting on shoe covers before we step inside, and laying drop cloths to protect floors from the front door to the laundry room.

We’ve built our reputation here on transparency. Every visit gets a written price before work starts, no exceptions. Every completed job includes a photo of the clean-up before the crew leaves, so you see what was removed and how we left the space.

Paul Adeyemi leads our operation, and he’s made it clear since 2005 that pressure tactics and surprise invoices have no place in a customer’s home.

Dryer Vent Repair in Van Alstyne
Dryer Vent Repair in Van Alstyne is often needed sooner than homeowners expect, especially in the tract homes built rapidly along US-75 since 2018. The builder-grade flex duct runs installed during fast construction schedules are frequently kinked behind finished walls, poorly supported, or routed with too many bends to maintain proper airflow. When lint and construction debris accumulate in these restricted pathways, the dryer works harder, runs hotter, and eventually fails or triggers safety sensors. A typical Dryer Vent Repair in Van Alstyne costs $200-$400 depending on access, materials needed, and whether we’re replacing a damaged run or rerouting it entirely.
Fixing Crushed or Disconnected Runs
We regularly find flex duct that has been compressed against wall studs or pulled loose at the connection point during the final phases of construction. Our crew re-secures the run with proper supports and replaces any damaged sections so air flows freely again.
Rerouting for Better Performance
Some Van Alstyne homes were built with dryer vents that terminate in crawl spaces or make sharp turns through multiple wall cavities. We can reroute these to shorter, straighter paths using solid metal duct where code allows, which improves drying time and reduces future lint buildup.
Dryer Vent Cleaning Company in Van Alstyne
Dryer Vent Cleaning Company services in Van Alstyne from Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning include full inspection, lint and debris removal, airflow testing, and documentation with before photos. We use professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush and Nikro, not rental shop vacuums, because construction debris in newer Van Alstyne vents often requires agitation tools and high-velocity extraction to fully clear. A standard cleaning for a Van Alstyne home runs $150-$275; if bird guard installation or cap replacement is needed, that typically adds $75-$150. We also offer Dryer Vent Cleaning in Van Alstyne as part of a whole-system air duct package for families moving into new builds who want everything checked at once.
Post-Construction Source Removal
New Van Alstyne homes often arrive with drywall dust, fiberglass fragments, and sawdust packed into the vent run from the build. Our source removal process uses mechanical agitation and HEPA-contained extraction to pull this debris out without spreading it through your laundry room.
Camera Inspection and Airflow Verification
After cleaning, we run a camera through the vent and measure airflow at the exterior termination. You see the results. We don’t guess whether the job is done; we verify it before we pack up.
Trusted Brands We Service in Van Alstyne
Our vans carry professional equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, and Guardsman, and we stock common vent caps, bird guards, and transition fittings specific to the builder-grade installations found in Van Alstyne’s newer subdivisions. That means most repairs don’t require a return trip. If your vent cap was damaged during construction or you need a bird guard installed to prevent nesting in the wide-open fields around Van Alstyne, we typically have the right part on the truck. Faster turnaround, one visit, flat price agreed upfront.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Van Alstyne Homes
- Builder-grade flex duct packed with construction debris. The fast build schedules in Van Alstyne’s phased subdivisions routinely leave drywall dust and fiberglass sealed inside vent runs that were never properly cleaned before handover. We pull material out of two-year-old homes that looks like it came from a jobsite, not a laundry room.
- Adjacent construction re-contaminating “finished” homes. A family in Brayden or along the US-75 corridor can live in a completed section while framing and concrete work continue next door for 12-18 months. That second wave of dust infiltrates through soffit vents and migrates into dryer runs that were supposedly clean at move-in.
- Blackland prairie clay dust accelerating lint buildup. Van Alstyne sits on North Texas blackland prairie, and the fine clay-rich soil disturbed by constant construction becomes airborne in dry months. It settles in lint traps and vent lines, creating a dense, heavy accumulation that standard lint alone doesn’t produce.
- Kinked or overlong runs behind finished walls. Builders working to tight timelines often route flex duct with sharp bends or excessive length to avoid structural elements. These restrictions compound any debris loading and are invisible to homeowners until the dryer fails or overheats.
Pricing for Dryer Vent Cleaning in Van Alstyne, TX
Most Van Alstyne homeowners pay between $150 and $275 for a complete dryer vent cleaning. Dryer Vent Repair in Van Alstyne typically runs $200-$400 if we’re replacing damaged flex duct, rerouting a run, or repairing wall penetrations.

What affects your specific cost? Access to the vent termination (roof vs. wall), length and condition of the run, whether construction debris requires extra agitation time, and any repair parts needed. Newer Van Alstyne homes with heavy post-construction loading sometimes take longer than a standard cleaning, but you’ll know the exact price before we begin. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free estimate.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Van Alstyne
Yes, very likely. Van Alstyne’s fast-built subdivisions along US-75 routinely leave construction debris inside vent runs that builders never fully clear. We’ve cleaned vents in two-year-old Brayden homes that were packed with drywall dust and fiberglass. Call (323) 918-4345 and we’ll inspect it for free.
The error usually means restricted airflow from lint mixed with construction debris in a kinked or poorly routed flex duct. We ran a dryer vent cleaning on a two-year-old tract home in the Brayden subdivision off US-75 where the owner kept getting a “check vent” error on a newer dryer. Pulling the flex run at the air handler wall, our tech found the lint pathway packed with drywall dust and fiberglass fragments from the build, plus fresh sawdust tracked in from framing on the lot next door - a camera inspection confirmed a nearly choked run, and source removal with agitation tools restored full airflow and cleared the error for good. That’s a common story in Van Alstyne.
Active framing and concrete work on adjacent lots in phased subdivisions generate dust that infiltrates through exterior vents and soffits. Your “clean” vent from move-in can accumulate a second layer of debris within months. We see this pattern repeatedly in Van Alstyne’s newer communities.
Builders should have run a mechanical brush and vacuum through the full vent run to remove construction debris, verified straight duct routing without kinks, and confirmed proper termination with a functioning cap. In practice, fast build schedules often skip these steps. We clean up what they missed.
It can be. Van Alstyne’s newer homes often need source removal of construction debris, not just lint extraction, and the surrounding active development means re-contamination happens faster than in established areas. Our crews arrive prepared for that reality with Rotobrush and Nikro agitation equipment and camera inspection tools. Call (323) 918-4345 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
