Dryer Vent Cleaning Process

Your dryer vent system is very important in expelling hot moist air from your dryer. However, the dryer vents accumulate lint and fibers that build up in the lining of your system. Over time, this accumulation can obstruct the flow of air or block the channel completely. This lessening of airflow causes a strain on your dryer to function properly.

Dryer vent cleaning step-by-step

Using skids to protect your flooring
Using skids to protect your flooring

Our first step in delivering your dryer vent cleaning service is to create a safe and tidy work area by removing any obstructions around your dryer. We then take the precautionary measure of installing skid protectors at the base of your dryer to prevent any damage to your flooring during the cleaning process.

Next, we utilize a bendable rod and brush tool, as well as a vacuum, to remove any lint buildup from your dryer vent's inlet, the vent tube itself, and the external exit point of your dryer vent setup.

Our final step in providing your dryer vent cleaning service involves reassembling the venting system. Once we have successfully cleared any obstructions and ensured a clear venting system, we use all weather tape to secure all joints and conduct a thorough assessment to guarantee that the air is blowing at its maximum capacity.

“I have been using Ray and team over the last year for cleaning our gutters. Initially, I did not schedule a cleaning recommended by Ray, and paid the price for it with overflowing gutters the last time it rained. Very prompt responses, reasonable pricing, timely and efficient work, with great follow-up (they call me after the cleaning and let me know what they did)...”
