About the service

Why the lint trap is not enough.

The lint trap only catches part of the lint. The rest travels into the vent line, where it sticks to the walls, collects at bends and slowly narrows the path for hot, moist air to leave the house.

We clean the entire run with brushes and vacuum extraction, clear the exterior vent cap, and check the connection behind the dryer. When we finish, we show you what came out of the vent.

  • Full vent line brushed and vacuumed
  • Exterior vent cap cleared
  • Connection behind the dryer checked

Questions

Dryer vent cleaning FAQ

Why clean the dryer vent if I clean the lint trap?

The lint trap only catches surface lint. Fine lint still passes into the vent line, where it builds up and restricts airflow.

How often should a dryer vent be cleaned?

Many homes need it about once a year. Large families, long vent runs and roof vents may need it more often.

Can birds or pests block a dryer vent?

Yes. Exterior vent caps are a common nesting spot, and a blocked cap traps lint and heat.

How long does dryer vent cleaning take?

Most vents take about an hour, depending on the length of the run and where it exits.
