Camera Vent Inspection in Boerne, TX
You cannot judge a dryer vent from either end — the problems live in the walls. We run a camera through the duct to document lint load, crushed sections, disconnected joints, and screws poking into the airstream. We trace the route through walls or attic, add up its developed length against the elbow count the way IRC M1502 requires, and measure real airflow at the termination. You get a written pass/fix report with camera stills and, if something needs work, a fixed quote — which you are free to take to any contractor, not just us. Serving Boerne (3 ZIP codes, 20k residents) and surrounding neighborhoods with same-week scheduling.
Camera Vent Inspection in Boerne
A camera vent inspection is a documented look inside the duct you cannot otherwise see. A small camera travels the run and records lint depth, crushed or separated sections, illegal materials like vinyl flex, and fasteners protruding into the airstream. We map the route through the structure, total its developed length against the elbow count, and measure actual airflow at the termination. The output is a written report with camera stills and a clear verdict: the vent passes, or here is exactly what to fix and what it costs. Home buyers, sellers, and anyone inheriting an unknown laundry setup get certainty for less than the cost of a repair guess.
Local dossier · Boerne, TX
Custom homes are where standard vent assumptions go to die. Boerne's Hill Country builds — limestone ranch plans sprawling along ridgelines, metal roofs, deep porches — are drawn around views and stone, not duct runs, and the laundry room routinely lands forty feet of framing away from a discreet exterior wall. That's how a beautiful house ends up with a dryer run at the edge of what code and physics allow. Add metal roofing, which many crews won't walk and fewer flash correctly, and Kendall County's full cast of wildlife eyeing every warm opening, and the termination becomes the most neglected detail on an otherwise meticulous home. We bring the measurements Boerne's housing actually needs: developed-length math on the long runs, listed booster fans where no shorter route exists, metal-roof terminations flashed right, and guards that keep the wrens out without strangling airflow. Craftsmanship should extend to the parts nobody photographs.

Common signs in Boerne homes
- You're buying or selling a home and the vent's condition is unknown
- Drying performance dropped and the cause isn't obvious
- The home has had remodeling that may have buried or rerouted the duct
- You've never seen where the dryer exhaust actually exits the house
- A previous 'cleaning' changed nothing and you want evidence
- Your dryer is gas-fired and you want the exhaust path verified
Camera Vent Inspection in Boerne (Kendall County) — what's local
Boerne sits in Kendall County (county seat: Boerne). For camera vent inspection that means our Boerne crew sizes up the local housing stock before quoting — and follows Kendall County permit requirements for any work that needs an inspection sign-off.
Built to code · Camera Vent Inspection in Boerne
Camera Vent Inspection is held to published national standards no matter the city. Our Boerne crew builds to these and documents the work; the locally-adopted code edition and permit requirements are confirmed with Kendall County's authority on every job.
- IRC M1502 — Dryer exhaust ducts must be smooth-interior rigid metal with joints running in the direction of airflow and no screws or fasteners protruding into the duct where lint can catch — exactly the defects a camera inspection is built to find.
- IRC M1502 — A dryer duct's total developed length is limited — the straight-run allowance shrinks with every elbow — unless the dryer manufacturer's installation manual approves longer; our inspection does that math for your actual route.

Camera Vent Inspection in Boerne — FAQ
Is a camera inspection worth it before buying a home?
Yes — it's one of the cheapest pieces of certainty in the transaction. General home inspectors rarely scope inside the duct, and a buried vinyl-flex run or an attic termination is a real repair cost. For $89 you get camera evidence and a written verdict you can negotiate with.
What does the inspection report include?
Camera stills from inside the duct, the route and materials of your run, measured developed length against the code allowance, an airflow reading at the termination, and a plain pass/fix verdict. If repairs are needed, an itemized fixed quote is attached — usable with us or any contractor you choose.
Our Boerne custom home has a very long dryer run. Is that fixable?
Almost always. We measure the true developed length first, then take the options in order: reroute to a nearer wall where the plan allows, or install a dryer-rated booster fan (DEDPV) where it doesn't. Both come with the math and a fixed quote — you choose informed.
Can you service dryer vents on a standing-seam metal roof?
Yes. Metal roofs need the right footwear, fall protection, and profile-matched flashing at the termination — clamped, not screwed through the panel wherever possible. We service and replace metal-roof terminations routinely on Hill Country homes, and the roof access is itemized plainly in your quote.
What keeps getting into Hill Country dryer vents?
Birds first — wrens and starlings love a warm four-inch tube — plus wasps and the occasional rodent traveling the wall. A dryer-rated guard closes the door without trapping lint the way mesh does. If something's nested already, removal and a cleaning of the affected section come with the install.
Do you serve all of Boerne?
Yes — our crews cover Boerne's 3 ZIP codes across Kendall County, including Hill Country Village, Esperanza, Cordillera Ranch, plus the surrounding communities.
