Your Dryer Works Better, Your Bills Drop

When your dryer vent is clean, everything changes. Your clothes dry faster—sometimes cutting drying time in half. Your energy bills drop because your dryer isn’t working overtime to push air through clogged vents.

Most importantly, you sleep better knowing you’ve eliminated one of the leading causes of house fires. Clean vents mean proper airflow, which means your dryer runs at safe temperatures instead of overheating.

You’ll also extend your dryer’s lifespan by years. When your machine doesn’t have to strain against blocked vents, it lasts longer and needs fewer repairs.

Dryer Vent Cleaning Process Kirby

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we inspect your entire dryer vent system from the inside connection to the outside exhaust. We check for blockages, damage, and proper installation.

Then we disconnect your dryer and use professional-grade equipment to remove every bit of lint, debris, and buildup from your vents. We clean the dryer itself too—not just the vent line.

We test airflow before and after so you can see the difference. Most customers are shocked at how much lint comes out, even from vents they thought were “pretty clean.” Finally, we reconnect everything and make sure your system is running safely and efficiently.

What You Get With Our Service

Our dryer vent cleaning includes the complete system—not just the easy parts. We clean from your dryer to the outside exhaust, including any bends, turns, or long runs that other companies might skip.

In Kirby, we see specific challenges that come with our Texas climate. Dust storms, high humidity, and seasonal allergens all contribute to faster lint buildup. We know which homes are more prone to blockages based on their age, vent configuration, and local conditions.

We also check for common problems we see in this area: crushed transition hoses behind dryers, damaged exterior vents that let in pests, and improper installations that create fire hazards. If we find issues, we’ll explain them clearly and give you options to fix them.

How often should I have my dryer vent cleaned in Kirby?

Most Kirby homes need dryer vent cleaning once a year, but some need it more often. If you do a lot of laundry, have pets, or live in one of the dustier areas around Kirby, you might need cleaning every 6-9 months. The easiest way to tell is by watching your drying times. If clothes that used to dry in 30-40 minutes now take an hour or more, your vents are probably getting clogged. You might also notice your dryer getting hot to the touch or your laundry room feeling more humid than usual. Texas climate makes this even more important. Our dust and seasonal allergens can pack into vents faster than in other parts of the country, creating blockages that force your dryer to work harder and run hotter.

What are the signs my dryer vent needs cleaning?

The biggest red flag is longer drying times. If you’re running two or three cycles to get clothes dry, your vent is probably blocked. Your dryer might also shut off mid-cycle if it’s overheating from poor airflow. Check outside your house too. If you don’t see steam or air coming from your exterior dryer vent when the dryer’s running, something’s blocking it. Sometimes you’ll find lint scattered around the outside vent, or even birds or small animals trying to nest in there. Inside, you might notice your laundry room getting unusually hot and humid, or a burning smell when the dryer runs. These are serious warning signs that mean you need professional cleaning right away—not next week or next month.

Can a clogged dryer vent really cause a fire?

Absolutely, and it happens more often than most people realize. According to the National Fire Protection Association, failure to clean dryer vents causes about 34% of all dryer fires. That’s nearly 5,000 house fires every year just from this one preventable problem. Here’s what happens: lint is extremely flammable, and when your vent is clogged, your dryer runs much hotter than it should. That combination of heat and flammable material creates the perfect conditions for ignition. The fire can spread through your vent system and into your walls before you even know what’s happening. In Texas, our dry climate makes this even more dangerous. Lint dries out completely and becomes like tinder. We’ve seen too many families learn this lesson the hard way, which is why we take every call seriously.

How much does dryer vent cleaning cost in Kirby?

Our dryer vent cleaning service typically runs between $150-250 for most Kirby homes, depending on your vent length and configuration. Longer runs or multiple-story homes might cost a bit more, but we’ll give you an exact price upfront—no surprises. That might seem like a lot until you consider what you’re preventing. The average house fire causes over $70,000 in damage, not counting the irreplaceable personal items you’d lose. Plus, clean vents can cut your energy bills by 20-30% and extend your dryer’s life by years. We’ve been doing this for 30 years, so we know how to work efficiently. Most jobs take 1-2 hours, and you’ll see the difference immediately in how your dryer performs.

Do you service all types of dryer vents?

Yes, we work on every type of dryer vent system you’ll find in Kirby homes. Whether you have a short, straight run to an outside wall or a complex system that goes up through your attic and out the roof, we have the equipment and experience to clean it properly. We see a lot of different configurations in this area—some homes have vents that run 20+ feet with multiple turns, others have been modified over the years as homeowners remodeled. Some have metal ducts, others have flexible connections, and unfortunately, some still have old plastic venting that should be replaced. No matter what type of system you have, we’ll clean it thoroughly and let you know if we spot any safety concerns. We’re not trying to sell you things you don’t need, but we will tell you if something could be dangerous.

What happens if you find problems during the cleaning?

We’ll explain exactly what we found and why it matters for your safety. Common issues we see in Kirby include crushed transition hoses, damaged exterior vents, improper connections, and sometimes old plastic venting that needs to be replaced with metal. We’ll always give you options. Some problems need immediate attention for safety reasons—like a completely blocked vent or damaged connections that could leak carbon monoxide. Others can wait but should be addressed soon to prevent bigger issues. We’re not here to pressure you into expensive repairs. We’ll tell you what’s urgent, what can wait, and what you might be able to handle yourself. After 30 years in business, our reputation depends on being straight with people, not overselling them.
