Our Dryer Vent Cleaning Process

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we inspect your entire dryer vent system from the dryer connection to the exterior exhaust. We check for blockages, damage, and proper airflow.

Next, we use professional-grade equipment to remove all lint, debris, and obstructions from your vent line. This includes the dryer connection, the ductwork, and the exterior vent cap.

We test airflow before and after cleaning to measure the improvement. You’ll see the difference in performance immediately. We also check that your exterior vent opens and closes properly and isn’t blocked by landscaping or other obstructions.

Finally, we clean up completely and give you recommendations for maintaining proper airflow between professional cleanings.

Complete Dryer Vent Cleaning Services

What's Included in Every Service

Every dryer vent cleaning includes a complete system inspection, professional cleaning of the entire vent line, and airflow testing. We clean from the dryer connection all the way to your exterior vent.

We also inspect your dryer’s internal components for lint buildup that could affect performance. Many Union City homes have longer vent runs due to home layouts, which means more areas where lint can accumulate.

Our service includes checking and cleaning the exterior vent cap, ensuring proper operation of the damper, and removing any obstructions like bird nests or debris. We’ll also let you know if any parts need replacement or if there are code compliance issues with your current setup.

Most homes need professional dryer vent cleaning every 1-2 years, but it depends on usage and your specific setup. If you do multiple loads weekly, have a long vent run, or notice clothes taking longer to dry, you might need annual cleaning. Homes with shorter, straighter vent runs can often go longer between cleanings. The key signs it’s time include longer drying times, the dryer getting hot, or lint around the exterior vent.
The most obvious sign is clothes taking multiple cycles to dry completely, especially heavy items like towels or jeans. You might also notice your dryer getting extremely hot, shutting off mid-cycle, or leaving clothes damp after a full cycle. Other warning signs include lint accumulating around your exterior vent, a burning smell when the dryer runs, or your laundry room feeling unusually hot and humid during operation.
Yes, clogged dryer vents are responsible for thousands of house fires every year. When lint blocks airflow, your dryer overheats and that lint becomes extremely flammable. The combination of heat, restricted airflow, and accumulated lint creates dangerous conditions. This is why fire departments and insurance companies recommend regular professional cleaning. It’s not just about efficiency – it’s about keeping your family safe.
Most homeowners see immediate savings on their energy bills because their dryer runs more efficiently. When your vent is clean, clothes dry faster and your dryer doesn’t have to work as hard. You’ll also avoid costly dryer repairs and extend your appliance’s lifespan. Many customers tell us their dryer runs 20-30% faster after cleaning, which translates to real savings on utility bills and less wear on the machine.
We focus primarily on the dryer vent system – from your dryer connection through the entire ductwork to the exterior vent. However, we do inspect the dryer’s lint filter area and will remove accessible lint buildup that could affect performance. If we find significant internal dryer issues, we’ll let you know, but our specialty is the vent system where most problems occur and where professional equipment makes the biggest difference.
Most dryer vent cleanings take 45 minutes to an hour, depending on your home’s layout and the condition of your vent system. Longer vent runs or heavily clogged systems might take a bit more time. We don’t rush the job – we make sure everything is thoroughly cleaned and properly tested. You can usually continue with your day while we work, and we’ll let you know when we’re finished and show you the results.
