FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Yes, removing lint and debris from the dryer cavity improves airflow, allowing your dryer to operate more efficiently. A clean dryer doesn’t have to work as hard to dry clothes, leading to faster drying times and lower energy consumption, which can save you money on utility bills.
Technicians clean the dryer drum, heating elements, motor area, blower, and any other parts where lint buildup is common. Each component is carefully inspected, and all accessible lint and debris are removed. This thorough approach ensures safe, efficient operation and extends the lifespan of the dryer.
Lint buildup in dryer cavities is a leading cause of dryer fires. When lint accumulates around heating elements or other hot parts of the dryer, it can ignite. Poor maintenance and failure to clean both the vent and cavity regularly contribute to this risk. Regular cavity cleaning is one of the most effective ways to prevent dryer-related fires.
Cleaning the lint trap removes visible lint after each load, but dryer vent cleaning involves removing lint buildup from the exhaust duct. Both are important for efficient drying and safety.
Our standard price is $249, and a dryer cavity cleaning add-on is an additional $239. If there is a need to go on the roof, attic, or crawl space – that will carry an additional charge.
On average, a dryer tune-up takes about one hour. However, this may vary slightly depending on the dryer model and its condition. We offer flexible scheduling to make this process convenient for you.
Yes, by reducing strain on internal components and preventing overheating, cavity cleaning extends the lifespan of your dryer. Lint buildup can cause wear and tear on parts like the motor and heating elements. Keeping these areas clean minimizes damage, helping you get more years out of your appliance.
For most households, it’s recommended to schedule a dryer cavity cleaning annually, or every 18 months for those with moderate dryer use. If your household uses the dryer frequently—such as families with children or shared living situations—consider cavity cleaning every six months to a year to prevent excessive buildup.
What should I do? Poor drying despite heat often points to restricted airflow. Vent cleaning can restore airflow and improve drying results.
FEMA.gov recommends cleaning your dryer vent once annually, but it can depend on many variables. The number of people in the house causes the use of the dryer to go up. The length of the dryer vent pipe can factor into the amount of air being pushed from the dryer and will lose velocity and cause more lint to settle in the dryer vent. Anything over 30 feet can stress the dryer motor. A good rule of thumb is to not wait longer than 2 years for any size house or family.
It’s always helpful to clear the path to the appliances or vents that we will need to service. Otherwise, we can adapt to most situations.
You can call or text us, or book online.
Ideally, a dryer tune-up should be done annually, especially for households with heavy dryer usage. Regular maintenance can prevent expensive repairs and help avoid hazardous conditions that may lead to dryer fires.
Common issues include clogged vents, worn-out parts, and faulty heating elements. Regular maintenance can prevent these issues.
Dryer vent cleaning is typically around 30-45 minutes. If there is an additional dryer cavity cleaning, it may take 30-60 more minutes. Air duct cleaning can take 2-4 hours on average. Other services vary.
Yes, provided our service schedule can accommodate it.
Dryer cavity cleaning targets the hidden spaces inside your dryer where lint and debris accumulate over time. While regular lint trap cleaning is helpful, it doesn’t address the buildup that occurs deeper within the appliance. Without periodic cavity cleaning, lint can gather in areas like the dryer drum, heating elements, and motor, increasing fire risk. Regular cavity cleaning minimizes fire hazards, boosts dryer efficiency, and prolongs appliance life.
Without tune-ups, dryers accumulate wear and lint buildup, which can lead to increased energy consumption, breakdowns, and even fire hazards. Neglecting maintenance often results in unexpected repairs and reduced dryer lifespan.
Yes, excessive lint buildup in the dryer cavity can lead to overheating, which can damage fabrics, fade colors, and shorten the life of your clothes. A clean dryer cavity helps maintain even heat distribution, preserving the quality of your clothing over time.
If a serious issue is detected, the technician will inform you immediately and provide recommendations. Some repairs can be done on-site, while others may require specific parts or additional service.
