Standard Residential Dryer Duct Cleaning Includes:
- Flat Rate. No Extras, No Hidden Fees.
- Remove lint, debris and nest from the connection to the termination outlet using specialized device attachments to break-up nest and debris along with simultaneous rotating auger brush and strong suction.
- Clean accessible areas of the dryer's air intake area and the exhaust system.
- Check that the dryer is heating.
- Check the exhaust air flow.
Most often, I clean from the inside where the dryer connects to the wall. Many times it also requires that I clean from both inside and outside depending on the circumstances. The purpose of this work is to improve airflow, improve dryer performance and to help prevent a dryer fire. My equipment is specifically designed for dryer duct cleaning. Not for air ducts, carpets or chimneys.
IMPORTANT: I PROVIDE A DRYER EXHAUST DUCT CLEANING SERVICE. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR MALFUNCTIONING OR DAMAGED EXHAUST VENT OUTLET COVERS AND DO NOT GO ON ROOFS OR UNDER BUILDINGS. For buildings with roof top exhaust vents, if after cleaning is completed and airflow is not improved, it may be required that a licensed, insured roofer qualified for this type of work, remove and replace or repair the outlet cover.
Birds and other critters love to nest in a dryer exhaust vent outlet.
Prevent bird and other intruders from nesting in your dryer vent outlet by installing a critter cover. Covering the outlet with wire mesh or screen, traps lint and clogs the vent. Install a cover that opens and allows frequent cleaning. These covers are available at most home improvement stores.
Don't fall victim to a "Jack of all trades and master of none".
I promise to do a better more thorough job in less time than any air duct cleaning, carpet cleaning or chimney sweep company and do it without leaving a mess in your home or business!
I sincerely hope my warnings aren't ignored. Furthermore, I have found several, so called, professional service websites listing businesses and offering advice which I find to be completely false and somewhat dangerous. There are many so-called "experts" offering advice about topics they know nothing about. It's like asking the editor of a greeting card company to write about a car's fuel injection system. They probably haven't got a clue. But as long as the advertisers keep paying, the more they will spew the lies.
Dryer Vent Cleaning is there with water heater flushing as the #1 overlooked task in home or business maintenance. Neglecting it can be disastrous! DRYER FIRES ARE REAL, causing deaths and costing millions of dollars in damage every year. THIS IS NOT A SCARE TACTIC, BUT A REALITY!
- Prevent a Clothes Dryer Fire
- Improves dryer efficiency so clothes dry faster
- Dryer Last Longer
- SAVE ENERGY!
Problems with roof top exhaust vents
Many roof outlets are not designed well. They restrict air flow and clog easily. They are Notorious for having issues. Home builders did NOT take maintenance into consideration when installing them. If after duct cleaning is completed if airflow is not improved, it may be required that a licensed, insured roofer, qualified for this type of work, remove and replace or repair the outlet cover.
Think about This!
Would you call a plumber to clean your car? I hope NOT! So why call a carpet cleaner, chimney sweep or a/c duct cleaner to clean your dryer vent duct? Dryer Vent Cleaning is quite a different process from air duct cleaning, requiring different specialized equipment and expertise. I have found pieces of carpet cleaning hose, which were left behind, stuck in a dryer vent. Call a dryer vent duct specialist, not a "Jack of all trades, master of none"!
Residential & Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning.
I don't clean air ducts (HVAC) and air duct cleaners should not clean dryer vents. I don't repair appliances, and appliance technicians should not clean dryer vents! Remember, the old saying "you get what you pay for" applies when dealing with cut-rate, bait and switch companies!
Receive service from a service professional, not a sales representative. Other companies offer dryer vent cleaning to get their foot in the door to up-sell you carpet cleaning, air duct cleaning or other unnecessary services. But this is not what I do, and I know the proper, thorough techniques to clean your dryer vent without damaging your home or business.
Flat Rate! No Hidden Fees and No Extras
Most jobs require moving machines. The most time-consuming part of the work is setting up equipment and other preparations. Once the process of removing lint and debris begins, it doesn't take a lot of extra time and effort to clear a longer duct. Don't get taken by these companies that charge extra by the foot. I charge the same rate if the duct is 6 feet or 36 feet. Of course, like yours, my time is valuable. But I don't charge by the hour. I charge to perform a specific task that requires my experience, expertise and equipment, which is specifically designed for dryer exhaust duct cleaning. The cost to you is the same if I spend 20 minutes or an hour and 20 minutes. The extra effort to clean a longer duct is minimal. So why should you pay a lot more?
My prices are lower than the average price in Santa Clarita. (the typical price in the area being $210 to $750.) You may find a lower price, ($69 to $99) but this is usually just a starting price. You will not find more experienced and thorough service. Guaranteed!
There are many ads for cheap dryer vent cleaning. Don't be fooled by these ads. These prices are usually only for the service call or the first few feet of the duct, and the price jumps much higher by the foot after that. This tactic is to get their foot in the door to try to sell you other, unrelated or unnecessary services. Consider the cost of doing business and the low prices being offered. The fact is, anyone offering dryer vent cleaning for less than $100 is most likely going to have to sell you more in order to just break even. Considering, there are many expenses involved, such as a vehicle to fuel and maintain, vehicle insurance, business liability insurance, workers compensation insurance, service equipment and equipment maintenance and more. One of my special vent vacuums alone cost over $1600. They have to make up for these cost somewhere. It will always be the customer that pays, most likely with mediocre, rushed, incomplete, sloppy work. With no GUARANTEE!
I feel bad for those who try to clean their dryer vent themselves, but later have to call me to fix the problems they created. Many buy brush kits from a home improvement store and end up loosing a brush inside a wall duct or just compacting the lint into a bigger problem. Now their $18 brush kit will require my rather expensive brushes, rods and heavy duty professional equipment to clean up the mess they created.
One customer told me, she got a quote from a company representing a now closed department store. She was very upset that they wanted to charge her a "special discounted" rate of $369 for the first 8 feet and $369 for each additional 8 feet. On top of this was an added fuel fee. Fuel fee? Who knows what else they would charge for? Her dryer vent was about 30 feet long. This is longer than most. Her cost would have been over $1400. My charge is a flat fee of $150 for this job with, no extras, no hidden fees!
12/17/20 Another customer said she was charged $350 for a short young man to clean her dryer vent. He claimed to be with David's Dryer Vent cleaning. She said he used a leaf blower... Afterward, her dryer still would not heat, so she called an appliance repair company. The appliance repair people found the vent to still be full of lint, and she didn't need a dryer repair. She then called me to have the job done again. I told her that I have never been to her home and that I am not short and don't have any employees. I offered to try to help her out, but she said she wanted to track down the person that swindled her. Furthermore, I want to know who is impersonating me...
Too many times, I hear from people that buy new dryers because their existing dryer wasn't heating. After installing a new dryer, the new one wouldn't heat either. Now, after the expense of buying a new dryer, they find that all they needed was to clean the dryer exhaust vent duct. How much would you rather spend? Up to $1800 or more for a new dryer or $150 to $180 to clean the vent?
