Dryer Vent Cleaning in Metro Detroit: what to expect

Lint builds up inside the duct that runs from your dryer to the outside, not just in the lint screen. The U.S. Fire Administration lists failure to clean as the leading factor in clothes dryer fires, and advises cleaning the lint filter every load and checking that venting is not damaged, crushed or restricted. Signs of a clog include clothes that take more than one cycle to dry, a hot laundry room, a burning smell, or an outside flap that does not open when the dryer runs.

A technician disconnects the dryer, runs rotary brushes and air through the full length of the duct, clears the outside hood, and checks airflow after. In many Metro Detroit homes the dryer sits in the basement and vents a long way to a side wall, and some run through the roof, which adds lint traps and bends. Old plastic or foil accordion ducts should be replaced with metal duct.

What a proper job includes

  • Disconnecting and moving the dryer safely
  • Cleaning the full duct run with brushes and air
  • Clearing the exterior hood, flap and any bird nest
  • Vacuuming the dryer cabinet opening and transition hose
  • Checking for crushed, disconnected or plastic ducting
  • An airflow or temperature check after cleaning
  • Photos of before and after or a written note of findings

What drives the price

  • Length of the vent run and number of bends
  • Wall, roof or crawlspace termination
  • Access: basement, closet or stacked laundry
  • Replacing transition hose or damaged duct
  • Bird guard or new exterior hood
  • Multi-unit buildings with shared chases

Insurance, disposal and safety rules

Ask for a current certificate of general liability insurance before anyone starts, and ask whether the crew are employees covered by workers' compensation or subcontractors. For in-home work, ask whether the company is bonded and how it screens staff. Check verification status as described in How We Vet.

Replacing or rerouting a dryer duct may require a mechanical permit in some municipalities, so ask the company whether your job needs one and confirm with the local building department (BSEED in Detroit). The U.S. Fire Administration recommends having dryers installed and serviced by a professional.

How to compare quotes

  1. Ask whether they clean the full run or only the ends.
  2. Ask what material they use if the duct needs replacing.
  3. Ask for before and after photos or an airflow reading.
  4. Confirm roof access equipment and insurance if the vent exits on the roof.
  5. Ask whether bird guards or hood replacements are included.

Common questions

Dryer Vent Cleaning FAQ

It depends on how much laundry you do and how long the vent is. Clean the lint screen every load and have the duct checked when drying slows down or on a regular schedule your technician recommends.
Short, straight runs can be brushed with a kit. Long runs, roof exits and ducts with several bends are better done by a pro with the right equipment.
Crushed or plastic duct restricts airflow and traps lint. Many installers and manufacturers call for smooth metal duct, so ask about replacing it.
No. Dryer vent cleaning targets the exhaust duct only. Heating and cooling ducts are a separate service: see duct cleaning under HVAC.
