Dryer Vent Cleaning in Greater Boston – Safety, Performance & Peace of Mind
Your clothes dryer works hard, but did you know it can also become one of the most dangerous appliances in your home? Over time, lint and debris accumulate in the dryer vent, restricting airflow, reducing efficiency, and increasing the risk of fires and carbon monoxide leaks.

Whether you’re a homeowner, landlord, or property manager, our certified technicians are ready to make your home safer and your dryer more efficient — all in one visit.
What Our Dryer Vent Cleaning Service Includes
Our service goes far beyond a simple lint trap check. We provide complete dryer duct system cleaning, from the appliance to the exterior vent.
Initial Inspection
We inspect the dryer, vent line, and exterior flap for damage, leaks, or obstructions.
Full-System Cleaning
Using high-powered vacuums and rotary brush systems, we clear the entire vent line of lint, dust, pet hair, and debris.
Airflow Testing
We test the dryer’s airflow and temperature before and after cleaning to ensure optimal performance.
Safety Checks
We check for improper venting materials, crushed hoses, or disconnected lines — all common safety hazards.
Why Dryer Vent Cleaning Is Essential
According to the U.S. Fire Administration, over 15,000 house fires each year are caused by dryer-related incidents — the majority due to clogged vents. Dryer vent cleaning is not just a maintenance task — it’s a critical safety measure.
Risks of a Clogged Dryer Vent:
Fire Hazard: Lint is highly flammable. If it builds up near the heating element, it can ignite.
Carbon Monoxide Buildup: Gas dryers with blocked vents can release deadly CO into your home.
Longer Drying Times: Restricted airflow means your dryer works harder, wasting time and energy.
Shortened Appliance Lifespan: A clogged vent forces your dryer to run longer, leading to overheating and premature wear.
Higher Utility Bills: Inefficient dryers consume more electricity or gas with each load.
