Dryer vent cleaning clears the lint out of the vent that carries hot, damp air from your dryer to the outside. Experts Duct Cleaning, based in Huntingdon Valley, PA, provides dryer vent cleaning services across Bucks, Montgomery, Chester and Philadelphia counties, plus Delaware County, PA. Homes only. We do not clean commercial buildings. Licensed, insured, free estimates.

Signs you need dryer vent cleaning

  • Clothes that need more than one cycle to dry
  • A dryer that feels very hot to the touch
  • A burning smell while the dryer runs
  • Lint collecting around the door or the outside vent

What is included

  • Lint cleared from the vent run, dryer to outside
  • Transition duct and outside cap checked
  • Walk-through when we finish

What changes the quote

No two vent runs are the same, so we ask about yours before we give a number. These move the estimate:

  • Length of the vent run and the number of bends
  • Where it exits: a wall or the roof
  • Duct type: foil or plastic versus metal
  • Access to the dryer: stacked units, closets, basements
  • What is in it: packed lint, a nest, a crushed section

Questions, answered

How often should a dryer vent be cleaned?

Lint builds up with every load, so busy laundry households need it sooner. If clothes stop drying in one cycle, do not wait for a schedule. Call us.

How can I tell my dryer vent is clogged?

Clothes that need more than one cycle, a dryer that runs very hot, a burning smell, or lint collecting around the door or the outside vent.

Is a clogged dryer vent really a fire risk?

Yes. The U.S. Fire Administration lists failure to clean as the leading factor in home clothes dryer fires. Lint burns, and a blocked vent traps heat inside the dryer.

What does dryer vent cleaning involve?

We clear lint from the vent run between your dryer and the outside, check the transition duct and outside cap, and walk you through the result.

Is the estimate really free?

Yes. Experts Duct Cleaning gives free estimates. Call (215) 515-0677 or book online, ask your questions, and decide in your own time.

What if I smell burning from my dryer?

Stop the dryer and, if it is safe to reach, unplug it. If you see smoke or flames, leave the house and call 911. Once it is safe, call Experts Duct Cleaning at (215) 515-0677 any time and we will check the vent.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Experts Duct Cleaning is registered with the Pennsylvania Attorney General as a home improvement contractor (PA HIC #PA177829) and is insured, so you can let the crew into your home with confidence.

Is dryer vent cleaning the same as air duct cleaning?

No. Air ducts carry heated and cooled air through your home. The dryer vent carries hot, damp air outside. They are separate jobs, and you can book one or both.

Do you clean commercial buildings?

No. Experts Duct Cleaning works on homes only. For an office, shop or restaurant, look for a commercial HVAC cleaning contractor.
