What You Get When It's Done Right

Your dryer works like it’s supposed to. Clothes dry in one cycle instead of three. Your laundry room stops feeling like a sauna every time you run a load.

You’ll sleep better knowing your family isn’t at risk from the 15,000 dryer fires that happen every year. Most of those fires start the same way – lint buildup that could have been prevented with proper cleaning.

Your energy bills drop because your dryer isn’t working overtime to do its job. When air flows freely through clean vents, everything runs more efficiently. That means lower utility costs and a dryer that lasts years longer than it would otherwise.

Dryer Vent Cleaning Process Altamont

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we inspect your entire dryer vent system from the dryer to the exterior vent. We check for blockages, damage, or code violations that could cause problems down the road.

Next, we disconnect your dryer and use specialized brushes and high-powered vacuum equipment to remove all lint, debris, and buildup from the ductwork. We clean the entire length of the vent, not just the parts that are easy to reach.

We also clean your dryer’s lint trap housing and inspect the exterior vent for proper airflow. Before we finish, we reconnect everything and test the system to make sure it’s working efficiently. You’ll see the difference immediately when your clothes actually dry in one cycle.

Most homes need dryer vent cleaning every 1-2 years, but it depends on how often you use your dryer and what you’re drying. Families with kids who do multiple loads daily might need cleaning annually. If you’re noticing longer drying times, excessive heat in your laundry room, or lint around your dryer, it’s time for cleaning regardless of when you last had it done. Altamont’s dusty conditions can also contribute to faster buildup in some homes.
The biggest red flag is clothes taking multiple cycles to dry completely. Your laundry room shouldn’t feel like an oven when the dryer’s running. If you smell burning, see excessive lint around the dryer, or notice the outside vent flap doesn’t open when the dryer’s running, you need cleaning immediately. These are all signs of restricted airflow that can lead to fires. Don’t wait if you’re experiencing any of these symptoms – they only get worse over time.
Professional dryer vent cleaning typically costs between $150-300 depending on the length and complexity of your vent system. Homes with longer vent runs or multiple bends cost more to clean properly. We provide upfront pricing after inspecting your system – no surprises or hidden fees. Consider that cleaning costs far less than dealing with a dryer fire, replacing a burned-out dryer, or the ongoing expense of higher energy bills from an inefficient system.
You can clean the lint trap and the first few feet of ductwork, but most homeowners can’t reach the entire vent system effectively. Professional equipment includes specialized brushes and powerful vacuums designed for ductwork cleaning. We also know how to properly disconnect and reconnect your dryer without damaging gas lines or electrical connections. DIY cleaning often misses the bulk of the buildup that accumulates further down the vent line where the real fire hazards develop.
Most dryer vent cleaning jobs take 1-2 hours depending on your system’s length and condition. Simple, short runs might take an hour while longer, more complex systems can take up to two hours. We don’t rush the job – thorough cleaning takes time to do right. We’ll give you an estimated timeframe when we arrive and inspect your system. The time investment is worth it when you consider you’re preventing potential fires and extending your dryer’s lifespan.
Yes, clean dryer vents significantly reduce energy consumption. When your vent is clogged, your dryer works harder and longer to dry clothes, using more electricity or gas. Clean vents allow proper airflow, so clothes dry faster and your dryer doesn’t have to run multiple cycles. Most customers notice immediate improvements in drying time, which translates directly to lower energy costs. The cleaning typically pays for itself within a few months through reduced utility bills and prevents the much larger expense of premature dryer replacement.
