Service · A1 Chimney & Roofing
A dryer vent inspection traces the duct from the back of the dryer to the outside hood. You are told whether it is crushed, too long, disconnected, or full of lint. The inspection itself does not replace the duct.

The work
The hose, the wall cap, and as much of the in-wall run as can be seen without opening finishes are checked. A duct that cannot be followed to an outside hood is reported that way. Lint heavy enough to clean is quoted as cleaning. A damaged duct is quoted as repair.
Opening a wall to see a hidden run is not part of a standard look. If that is required, it is explained first.
Why it matters
The inspection answers why a dryer is hot or slow before anyone sells a new duct. Sometimes the hood is clogged. Sometimes the hose behind the dryer is kinked. Sometimes the vent never reached the outside.
You get that finding in plain language.
What to expect
The inspection and the price are explained before the dryer is pulled out. Cleaning or repair is a separate approval.
