Specialized Gas Dryer Vent Cleaning in Belmont, MA

Yes — per vent. The standard residential rate is $89 per dryer vent, so two vents in one home is quoted as a per-vent total on the call. The promo only applies to single-vent jobs; multi-vent and small-business rates are scoped up front.

No. The $69 promo or $89 standard rate is the actual price for the scope you booked. Repairs (flex pipe, vent hood, booster fan, re-route, animal removal) are quoted and approved by you before the tech starts on them.

We tell you on the call. Most roof-access cleanings are at the $89 standard rate, but tile roofs, steep pitches, and very high roofs may add a safety access surcharge, which we quote before we dispatch so you're not surprised in Belmont.

Once a year for most homes, sooner if you have a long run, a two-story home with a roof termination, heavy-shedding pets, or a large household running multiple loads a day. Annual cleaning is also a fire-safety standard — lint buildup is the leading cause of residential dryer fires.

Common signs: clothes still damp after a full cycle, the dryer hot to the touch, a burning smell when it runs, lint behind the dryer or around the exterior vent hood, an airflow/lint error code (LG d80/d90/d95, Samsung 'Check vent'), or a vent flap that won't open. Any one is worth a cleaning.

The most common cause is a clogged duct line restricting airflow: the dryer works but the hot, moist air can't exit fast enough. Other causes are a kinked or torn flex pipe, an undersized booster fan on a long run, or a stuck exterior vent flap. A standard cleaning fixes about 80% of these calls.
