"Our dryer quit drying clothes so we had a duct cleaner come out (thru Home Advisor). They explained that we had a bad clog due to condensation buildup. They recommended we replace the flexible exhaust pipe with rigid style of pipe but they never come or called back with the estimate. Fast forward a few weeks after their "cleaning" and there was absolutely NO AIR coming out of the exhaust. We tried to find them again since they apparently didn't finish the job but had no luck finding them. Mr Drummond saw that we were looking for the service again and called us that same day, came out within 72 hrs, gave an estimate and came back within 3-4 days (on a Saturday) and fixed the issue. He switched out the flexible for rigid pipe, finished the cleaning job and replaced the outside exhaust vent. We are very happy so far and will definitely recommend Drummond Carpet & Upholstery Care."

Dryer Vent Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

Lint is very flammable. Pair that with the hot heat your dryer produces as it runs, it creates a recipe for sparks and flames. Lint build up is the leading cause of dryer fires, so running routine maintenance on your dryer lint trap is critical to keep your home safe.

Yes, mold can grow in a wet dryer vent. Mold is a type of fungi, and fungi thrive in warm, moist conditions. Dryer vents need to be aired out so heat can escape and moisture can dry. If your dryer vents aren’t properly vented, the trapped heat and moisture will cause mold to grow, and the mold can spread to the dryer and even your clothes. Not only can this leave a musty smell on your freshly laundered clothes, but—more importantly—it also poses a health risk.

In a ventless dryer, lint it collected in a lint filter found inside the door or dryer drum. Vented dryers have this same lint filter, but in a ventless dryer you’ll need to stay on top of cleaning the lint filter after every wash. This is a common best practice, regardless of your dryer vent type.

You can clean a dryer vent yourself by unplugging the dryer from your wall outlet, removing your vent pipe from your dryer, removing debris from the pipe and dryer area, and looking at the exterior vent exit for any debris or blockages.

No, air ducts and dryer vents are not the same. The dryer vent is connected to a specific appliance, the dryer, and is meant to direct the hot, moist air from the washed clothes to the outside of the home. Air ducts move air from the HVAC system around the home. It’s essential to schedule cleanings for the dryer vent and the air ducts.
