Your dryer shouldn't need two cycles.

Dryer vent cleaning is the removal of lint and debris from the entire duct that runs from the back of your dryer to the vent cap outside your home. We use a rotating brush system and a high-powered vacuum to scrub the full length of the duct, clear the exterior cap, and verify airflow afterward. It is different from cleaning the lint screen, which only catches a portion of the lint your dryer produces.

Once a year for most households, and every six months if you do more than 8 loads a week, have pets, own a roof-vented dryer, or have a duct longer than 25 feet. The U.S. Fire Administration and most dryer manufacturers recommend annual cleaning as the baseline.

The lint screen only catches about 75% of lint. The rest travels down the duct with the hot, moist exhaust air, sticks to the duct walls, and packs tightest at elbows, screens, and the exterior cap. Over a year a typical family's duct collects a few cups to several gallons of lint.

Our flat rate is $139 for a wall or ground-level vent and $199 for a roof vent, with no trip charge or hidden fees. Most Twin Cities companies charge $100–$250 depending on vent location and add trip fees; we publish our pricing so you know the total before you book.

Roof vents require a ladder setup, roof safety gear, clearing the cap from above, and cleaning the vertical run from both ends. It takes longer and carries more risk, so the flat rate is $199 instead of $139.

Look outside for a vent cap near your dryer's side of the house. If there is no 4-inch cap on any exterior wall and your laundry is on an upper floor or an interior wall, look at the roof for a small hooded cap, usually gray or black. During booking we show animated pictures of both so you can pick.

Use the online booking form. Pick your service, tell us whether the vent exits through the roof or the wall, choose a date and two-hour arrival window, and enter your address. You get instant confirmation by email and text.

Usually within 2–4 days, and often next day. Same-day slots open up when there are cancellations; call or text us if you need urgent service.
