FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How often should a dryer vent be cleaned?

Once a year for most homes — more often with long vent runs, pets, or heavy laundry loads.

Can you do it with a chimney sweep visit?

Yes — booking both together is popular and saves you a service trip.

Do you clean air ducts too?

No — we focus on chimney systems and dryer vents only.

How long does it take?

Usually 30–45 minutes depending on the vent run length and how clogged it is.
