Dryer vent cleaning in Stillwater, MN

Once a year for most households, and every six months if you do more than 8 loads a week, have pets, own a roof-vented dryer, or have a duct longer than 25 feet. The U.S. Fire Administration and most dryer manufacturers recommend annual cleaning as the baseline.

Most wall or ground-level vents take 45–60 minutes. Roof vents take 60–90 minutes because we clear the cap from the roof and clean the vertical run from both ends. Bird nest removal or a very long duct can add 20–30 minutes.

Dryer vent cleaning cleans the single 4-inch exhaust duct from your dryer to the outdoors. Air duct cleaning cleans the HVAC supply and return ductwork for your furnace and AC. They require different tools and we specialize only in dryer vents, so you get a technician who does this all day.

For most wall vents, yes, we clean from inside and verify at the exterior cap. For roof vents we always clear the cap from the roof because that is where the worst clog usually sits; cleaning only from inside can push a lint plug into the cap and make the problem worse.

No. We use flexible nylon brushes sized to 4-inch duct that scrub without scratching or dislodging joints. If we find damaged, crushed, or disconnected duct we stop, show you, and tell you what it would cost to fix before touching it.

A vent that hasn't been cleaned in a few years typically yields one to three gallons of packed lint. We have pulled over a 13-gallon bag from a roof vent that had never been cleaned in 15 years.

Our flat rate is $139 for a wall or ground-level vent and $199 for a roof vent, with no trip charge or hidden fees. Most Twin Cities companies charge $100–$250 depending on vent location and add trip fees; we publish our pricing so you know the total before you book.

No. The price you see when you book is the price you pay unless you add optional services on site, which we confirm with you first. No trip charge, no fuel surcharge, no weekend upcharge.
