"I used Carolina Ductmasters 3 years ago and had a good experience. This time, however, was much different. The two guys were at my house for 50 minutes total. That is from the time they stepped out of the van until they were pulling out of the driveway. I have the Ring doorbell videos to corroborate. My house is 3100 SF. When I got home from work, I checked just (4) of the ducts and one of the ones that I checked is shown in the attached photo after it was supposedly cleaned. At this point, I stopped looking so that I could have them come back and fix the issue. I called to let them know that some of the ducts were not cleaned properly and the lady who answered was very nice and apologetic and scheduled them to come back. They did not clean any of the diffusers. My wife took them all off and cleaned them herself. When they came back, they were literally at my house for 7 minutes total. Again, 3100 SF and all he did was stick his arm down in the one duct that my wife showed him as far as he could reach and wiped it out. Nothing more. They didn't even bother vacuuming it out again. I took the cover off of the unit and there was mold all over inside, but they had said it was clean, so I just cleaned it myself. I really feel like they did a good job 3 years ago and I even recommended them to someone else. I do not recommend these guys at all anymore. I think they were behind on their schedule and tried to catch up on my house. When they came back out, they seemed mad that I had called them back, so they didn't bother checking behind all of the vents, only the one that was still literally black right inside the top portion of the duct. The picture attached is not after scrubbing. I literally just took a wet towel and touched it to the duct and it came out black."

Dryer Vent Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Using a leaf blower to clean your dryer vent isn't a good idea. Theoretically, the leaf blower should push the lint and debris toward the exterior vent opening, helping it exit. That's usually not what happens, though. 

Instead, the lint can get stuck further in the vent, creating a blockage and making the problem worse. You need a scrubbing tool, such as the rotating brush head on a dryer cleaning kit, to push the lint out of the ductwork.

Look for some common warning signs regarding a potential blockage when wondering how to check a dryer vent for clogging. If you are suddenly seeing more lint left inside the dryer and in the lint trap, you may have an active blockage. Additionally, if the dryer is taking longer than usual to dry clothing, a clogged vent may be the culprit. If the dryer is turning itself off because of overheating, this is a potentially dangerous sign of a blockage that requires immediate cleaning of the vent. Clogged vents could introduce a fire hazard.

Dryer vents should be cleaned at least once a year or more frequently if the dryer is used heavily or drying times increase.

Taking good care of your dryer will help ensure its longevity and keep your clothes nice and dry. Some dryer maintenance tips include:

  • Clearing the lint screen after every use

  • Deep cleaning the lint screen with detergent every three months

  • Don’t overload your dryer

  • Cleaning the dryer vent at least once a year

  • Cleaning the dryer drum twice a year with a microfiber cloth and rubbing alcohol

You can install a washer and dryer in most places throughout your house, provided you have the proper plumbing lines and electrical outlets needed. You’ll also need enough space to install ventilation for the dryer, which can limit where you install the washer and dryer. Common places to install a washer and dryer in a house include a dedicated laundry room, the basement, a bathroom, a hall closet, or even a kitchen. Keep in mind: It will cost a lot more money to install a washer or dryer in a space that is not currently designed to support these appliances.
