"Joseph did an excellent job. He arrived on time, did a thorough cleaning of the dryer vent, cleaned up after he finished and explained to me what he did and how to keep lint screen clean until next service in a year. I will definitely rehire him each year for dryer vent cleaning! Thank you!"
"Floyd was very professional and explained what he was doing in detail. I do have another job with him concerning my vents and ducts. I would recommend him."
"Chris was professional, explained the job and showed me pictures of each step involved with cleaning our dryer vent I admitted hadn’t been cleaned in 5 years. He never shamed me but encouraged me to clean every year. Honestly my laundry room was cleaner after he left. He sweep up missing socks and dog fur before putting our dryer back in place. He exceeded our expectations."
"SheShines Cleaning did an absolute AMAZING deep clean in my house today. I have been depressed lately and let go of my cleaning around my house. But today when I came home from work, it was like walking back into my house the day I rented it. I fell back in love with my house, and it has already made me feel 100% better knowing my house is as is should be. I recommend Danyale for any of your cleaning needs. I will tell anyone who asks or doesn't how wonderful her work is. Thank you so much SheShines Cleaning (Danyale) I did not get before pictures. I have been so busy just enjoying my home again."

Dryer Vent Cleaning questions, answered by experts
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.
There are a few things you can look out for that indicate it’s time to clean your dryer vent, including the following:
It has been a year or more since the last professional cleaning.
Your clothes are taking longer to dry than usual.
Your clothes smell musty or burnt when they come out of the dryer.
You see lint building up around the outside dryer vent cap.
Your laundry room is unusually hot.
Your dryer is unusually hot to the touch during operation.
You notice a kink in or damage to the vent.
To maintain your washer and dryer, regularly clean the lint traps, filters, and vents. Also, check the hoses for wear, avoid overloading the machines, and ensure loads are balanced. These practices help optimize performance, prevent future issues, and extend the lifespan of your appliances.
Condensation in your dryer can create a dangerous situation. It can cause lint to clog up the venting components of the system. If you have a gas-powered dryer, excessive lint buildup can create the potential for carbon dioxide buildup within your home. Clogged vent systems can also be a severe fire hazard.
Yes, basic cleaning can be done with vacuum attachments and vent brushes, but hard-to-reach areas are best left to professionals for thoroughness.
