A clogged dryer vent is more than an inconvenience — it's a fire hazard. Lint buildup in the vent duct restricts airflow, causing your dryer to overheat, take longer to dry clothes, and potentially catch fire. The U.S. Fire Administration reports that clogged dryer vents cause an estimated 2,900 house fires per year. Our technicians clean and inspect your entire vent system — with same-day appointments available.
Even with regular lint trap cleaning, lint passes through and accumulates in the vent duct over time.
Vents that travel long distances or have multiple bends accumulate lint faster and are harder to keep clear.
A flexible vent hose that's crushed behind the dryer restricts airflow and traps lint.
The exterior vent flap can become blocked by bird nests, insect nests, or outdoor debris.
Try these before calling for service — they may resolve a simple issue.
Go outside while the dryer runs — you should feel strong airflow from the vent
Check if the vent flap opens properly when the dryer is running
Look behind the dryer — make sure the vent hose isn't crushed or kinked
If your clothes are extremely hot when the cycle ends, the vent is likely restricted
