Our Cleaning Process
We don’t just vacuum around the dryer—we clear the entire vent line. Here’s how we do it:
Safety Check – We disconnect the dryer, inspect the setup, and confirm it’s safe to proceed.
Brush & Rod Cleaning – Long rotary brushes loosen lint, pet hair, and other debris.
Vacuum Extraction – A high-powered vacuum removes the loosened material.
Exterior Vent Service – We check the vent hood, damper, and remove any nests or blockages.
Airflow Testing – Measurements confirm that your dryer is venting properly.
Recommendations – If we find unsafe ducts or poor connections, we’ll let you know and suggest upgrades.
When the job is done, we leave the area clean and share before-and-after results with you.
