Faster Drying, Lower Bills, Safer Home

When your dryer vent gets clogged with lint, everything suffers. Your clothes take forever to dry, your energy bills climb, and you’re sitting on a potential fire hazard that kills hundreds of people every year.

Professional dryer vent cleaning fixes all of this in one visit. Your dryer starts working like it’s supposed to—drying full loads in 30-45 minutes instead of multiple cycles. Your electricity bill drops because your dryer isn’t working overtime. Most importantly, you eliminate the lint buildup that causes over 15,000 house fires annually.

You’ll notice the difference immediately. Clothes come out properly dried, your laundry room stays cooler, and that burning smell disappears. Your dryer will last years longer when it’s not straining against blocked airflow every single load.

Our Dryer Vent Cleaning Process

Thorough Cleaning from Inside to Outside

We start by disconnecting your dryer and inspecting the entire vent system from your laundry room to the exterior exit point. Most problems happen in the sections you can’t see—the long runs through walls and the exterior vent cover where lint builds up over months.

Our high-powered vacuum and specialized brushes remove every bit of lint from the ductwork. We clean the lint trap housing inside your dryer, check for proper airflow, and make sure the exterior vent opens and closes correctly. If we find damaged ductwork or improper installations, we’ll show you exactly what needs attention.

Before we reconnect everything, we test the system to ensure proper airflow and safe operation. The whole process takes about an hour for most homes, and you can use your dryer immediately after we’re done.

Complete Dryer Vent Maintenance Service

Everything Your Dryer Vent System Needs

Our dryer vent cleaning service covers your entire system, not just the easy parts. We clean the full length of ductwork, remove lint from the dryer’s internal components, and ensure your exterior vent operates properly.

You get a complete inspection that identifies potential problems before they become expensive repairs. We check for crushed ducts, improper connections, and code violations that could affect your home insurance. If your vent runs a long distance or has multiple turns, we have the equipment to clean it thoroughly.

Every service includes testing your dryer’s performance after cleaning. We measure airflow, check temperatures, and make sure everything operates safely. You’ll get straightforward recommendations if we find anything that needs attention—no high-pressure sales tactics or unnecessary add-ons.

Most homes need dryer vent cleaning every 1-2 years, but it depends on how much you use your dryer and the length of your vent run. Large families doing multiple loads daily might need annual cleaning, while couples doing a few loads weekly can often go two years. If your clothes are taking longer to dry, your dryer is getting hot, or you smell burning odors, don’t wait—get it cleaned immediately. Long vent runs with multiple turns collect lint faster and need more frequent attention.
The biggest red flag is clothes taking multiple cycles to dry completely, especially heavy items like towels and jeans. Your dryer getting extremely hot, shutting off mid-cycle, or producing a burning smell all indicate blocked airflow. Check your exterior vent while the dryer runs—if little or no air comes out, you have a serious blockage. Lint around the dryer, excessive heat in your laundry room, or a musty smell on “clean” clothes also signal vent problems that need immediate attention.
You can clean the lint trap and the first few feet of ductwork yourself, but most dryer vents run 10-25 feet through walls and need professional equipment to clean properly. Store-bought vent cleaning kits can’t reach the full length or generate enough suction to remove compacted lint. Professional cleaning includes specialized brushes, high-powered vacuums, and the ability to access both ends of the vent system. We also inspect for damage, proper installation, and code compliance—things you can’t easily check yourself.
Professional dryer vent cleaning typically costs between $100-200 for most homes in Lakeside Farms, depending on the length and complexity of your vent system. Simple, short runs cost less, while long runs with multiple turns or difficult access cost more. We provide upfront pricing before starting work—no surprises or hidden fees. Considering that clogged vents can add $200+ annually to your energy bills and potentially cause thousands in fire damage, professional cleaning pays for itself quickly through improved efficiency and safety.
We’ll show you exactly what we found and explain your options clearly. Common issues include crushed or disconnected ductwork, improper vent materials, or exterior vents that don’t close properly. Minor problems like loose connections we can often fix on the spot. Larger issues like damaged ductwork or code violations require separate repairs, but we’ll give you honest recommendations without pressure. We always complete the cleaning regardless, so your dryer works safely while you decide how to address any structural problems.
Most dryer vent cleanings take 45-90 minutes depending on your system’s length and condition. Simple installations are faster, while complex runs with heavy lint buildup take longer. We work efficiently but thoroughly—rushing through vent cleaning defeats the purpose. You can use your dryer immediately after we finish and reconnect everything. In fact, we recommend running a test load to confirm everything works properly. You’ll notice the difference right away: faster drying, less heat, and quieter operation.
