Air Duct Cleaning in Cibolo - One Flat Price, Before-and-After Photos

Air Duct Cleaning in Cibolo, TX

Dryer vent cleaning in Cibolo is a different job than it is in most Texas suburbs. The city’s housing stock, almost entirely production-built tract homes from 2005 to 2020, is now hitting the 10-to-20-year mark where flex ducts and dryer vents begin showing their first serious debris loads. Add in cooling season running seven-plus months a year and the Ashe juniper pollen corridor peaking each winter, and you get vent systems that clog faster and tighter than homeowners expect. If you’re seeing longer dry times or a lint smell in the laundry room, call CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning at (806) 606-6902 for a written price before any work starts.

Why Cibolo Homes Are Different

Cibolo’s residential landscape is unusual: virtually all of it was built between roughly 2005 and 2020, in large-footprint subdivisions of 2,000 to 3,500 square feet, almost universally fitted with flexible duct systems. Those flex runs are now aging into their second decade. We regularly find sagging and kinking at joist crossings, creating low-point traps where drywall dust from rushed post-construction closings has compacted into dense debris beds. In neighborhoods like Turning Stone, technicians consistently find a characteristic grayish drywall-dust cake coating the interior of flex-duct runs near the air handler. It’s a sign registers were left open during finish work and the system was never purged before the original owners moved in. That means the first duct cleaning in a Cibolo home is often removing a decade-plus of compacted construction debris, not just the usual household dust. The region’s HVAC systems run in cooling mode for seven or more months per year, continuously cycling air and loading return plenums with particulates. December through February, mountain cedar pollen counts spike, pushing fine particulates deep into return-air grilles.

Our Main Cibolo Services

Cibolo homeowners call us most about two jobs: full air duct cleaning and deeper HVAC system cleaning. Here’s what each involves locally.

Air Duct Cleaning in Cibolo

Most Cibolo homes we visit have never had their ducts cleaned, which means we’re often the first company to open the plenum and see what’s actually inside. The job involves negative-pressure extraction through every duct run, with before-and-after photos of each run as a standard deliverable. In Cibolo’s post-2005 flex-duct homes, we pay particular attention to sagging sections where debris collects at low points. If your home is in that 10-to-20-year window and you’re noticing dust on surfaces right after cleaning, read the full breakdown on our Air Duct Cleaning in Cibolo page.

HVAC Cleaning in Cibolo

HVAC cleaning goes beyond the duct runs to the air handler, evaporator coil, and blower assembly. In Cibolo’s cooling-heavy climate, the coil accumulates a biofilm layer that reduces efficiency and pushes more dust through the system. We photograph the coil before touching it, clean it with trade-recognized equipment, and document the result. For details on how we handle coil cleaning, blower maintenance, and drain pan treatment in Cibolo’s hot summers, see our HVAC Cleaning in Cibolo page.

Dryer Vent Cleaning in Cibolo

Dryer vent cleaning in Cibolo is the service most homeowners here should schedule first, because their vent systems are now past the age where a first cleaning is optional. Homes built between 2005 and 2020 typically have 15 to 30 feet of rigid or semi-rigid venting running from the laundry room to an exterior wall or roof cap, and after a decade of use, that run is coated with lint. Add the region’s seven-month cooling season, which keeps the dryer running just as often as the AC, and the typical Cibolo dryer vent has far more accumulation than the same house would show in a cooler climate. This is the work we do through our Dryer Vent Cleaning service, and every job includes a written price before we start and a documented photo record when we finish.

Dryer Vent Inspection

Signs you need it

Clothes take longer than 40 minutes to dry, the dryer exterior feels hot to the touch, or you smell a musty odor when the dryer runs.

What it costs in Cibolo

A dryer vent inspection in Cibolo typically runs $79 to $149, depending on access and vent length.

How we do it

We run a camera through the full vent run, measure airflow at the exterior cap, and photograph every restriction before quoting any necessary work.

Vent Cleaning

Signs you need it

Visible lint at the exterior vent cap, a burning smell when the dryer runs, or drying times that have slowly climbed past the one-hour mark.

What it costs in Cibolo

A full dryer vent cleaning in Cibolo typically runs $99 to $179, depending on vent length and the amount of accumulated lint.

How we do it

We use a rotary brush system with negative-pressure extraction to dislodge and remove lint from the entire vent run, then photograph the result from both ends.

What Dryer Vent Cleaning Costs in Cibolo

How often should a dryer vent be cleaned in Cibolo?

Every 12 to 18 months for most Cibolo homes, given the region’s long cooling season and the volume of laundry that produces. Homes with long vent runs or multiple dryer occupants may need it annually.

Can you clean a dryer vent on the second floor without roof access?

Yes. We inspect from both the interior connection and the exterior cap, and our rotary brush equipment handles vertical runs safely from ground or attic access. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written price.

Duct Repair & Sealing in Cibolo

Duct repair and sealing in Cibolo usually comes down to the age of the flex duct. Homes built between 2005 and 2020 are crossing the 15-year mark, and that’s when the outer vapor barrier on flex runs starts to tear, the inner liner separates, and joints loosen. In Cibolo specifically, the problem is compounded by the region’s long cooling season, which keeps conditioned air moving through those ducts for eight or nine months a year, stressing every joint and seam. The result is a system leaking 20 to 30 percent of its conditioned air into the attic or crawl space, which means higher electric bills during the hottest months. Our Duct Repair & Sealing service addresses that with documented repairs and written pricing before any tool comes off the truck.

Duct Sealing

Signs you need it

Some rooms stay noticeably warmer or cooler than others, or your electric bill climbs during summer even though you haven’t changed the thermostat.

What it costs in Cibolo

Whole-system duct sealing in Cibolo typically runs $450 to $950, depending on the number of runs and accessibility of the ductwork.

How we do it

We apply mastic sealant to every joint and seam, accessibly from the attic or plenum, then verify the seal with a duct blaster test and photograph the results.

Flex Duct Repair

Signs you need it

Visible sagging in attic duct runs, rooms that smell musty despite clean filters, or a sudden jump in dust accumulation around specific registers.

What it costs in Cibolo

Flex duct repair in Cibolo typically runs $180 to $520 per run, depending on the length of damaged section and attic accessibility.

How we do it

We cut out the damaged section, install a new matching-diameter flex run with proper support straps, seal both connections with mastic, and photograph every connection point.

What Duct Repair & Sealing Costs in Cibolo

Is duct sealing worth it in a Cibolo home built in 2012?

Yes. A 2012 home has 13-year-old flex duct, right at the age where joint tape fails and connections loosen. Sealing typically recovers 15 to 25 percent of the air you’re paying to cool.

Can you seal ducts without replacing the whole system?

In most Cibolo homes, yes. We seal accessible joints and seams with mastic, which handles the majority of leaks. Only severely damaged runs need replacement. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written number.

Air Quality & Sanitizing in Cibolo

Air quality and sanitizing work in Cibolo is shaped by two local conditions: construction dust from the city’s rapid build-out and the mountain cedar pollen that blankets the area each winter. Homes built in the 2005 to 2020 wave often still carry a fine gray dust in the ducts from the original construction, and every December through February, cedar pollen presses into return-air grilles and lodges in the duct walls. The result is indoor air that triggers allergy symptoms, leaves a persistent dusty odor, and undermines the work of a good HVAC filter. Our Air Quality & Sanitizing service treats those conditions at the source, with written pricing and before-and-after documentation on every visit.

Mold Treatment

Signs you need it

Musty odor that persists when the AC runs, visible dark staining around registers or in the plenum, or allergy symptoms that only appear inside the home.

What it costs in Cibolo

Mold treatment in Cibolo typically runs $350 to $800, depending on the extent of visible growth and whether the plenum or coil is affected.

How we do it

We photograph the affected area, apply an EPA-registered antimicrobial treatment chosen for HVAC surfaces, and document the surface after application with a second photo set.

UV Light Installation

Signs you need it

Recurring musty smells from the air handler, visible biofilm on the coil, or a household where someone has a respiratory condition that worsens with the AC on.

What it costs in Cibolo

UV light installation in Cibolo typically runs $450 to $900, including the unit, mounting hardware, and electrical connection by our technician.

How we do it

We mount a UV-C lamp in the supply plenum or above the coil, wired to run continuously, and verify output with a radiometer reading before we leave.

What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Cibolo

Will a UV light actually kill mold in a Cibolo attic system?

A properly placed UV-C lamp in the supply plenum or above the coil prevents microbial growth on treated surfaces. It won’t remove existing mold, which is why we handle treatment first, then install UV as prevention.

Is sanitizing safe for kids and pets in Cibolo homes?

Yes. We use EPA-registered products formulated for HVAC surfaces, applied with the system off and allowed to dry before the blower runs again. Your family can stay in the home during the work. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written price.
