Service · A1 Chimney & Roofing
Dryer vent cleaning removes the lint built up in the duct between the dryer and the outside hood. The hood flap is checked so it can open. A crushed or disconnected duct is a repair, not a cleaning.

The work
The dryer is pulled out, the duct is disconnected, and lint is cleaned through to the exterior hood. The transition hose is looked at. Thin plastic or foil hose that has collapsed gets noted for replacement. Cleaning a duct that ends in the attic does not make that termination acceptable.
Replacing the duct is dryer vent repair. A look without the full cleaning is an inspection.
Why it matters
Lint in the duct restricts the air, the dryer runs hot, and the lint is combustible. Cleaning puts the airflow back. It does not fix a hood that is painted shut or a duct that is stapled flat in the wall.
If the dryer is smelling hot or the laundry room is humid after a cycle, stop using it until the vent is checked.
What to expect
The cleaning and the price are explained first. You are told if the duct itself needs to be replaced.
