Dryer vent cleaning prices in Greater Boston

Where your dryer vents outsidePrice (USD)

Second-floor or roof exit, or a run over 15 ft$259
Add: Replace foil or plastic duct with semi-rigid metal (up to 8 ft)+$79

Why once a year

“Failure to clean” was the leading factor in US home clothes dryer fires from 2018 to 2020 (31%), according to the U.S. Fire Administration. Its earlier study found dryer fires are more common in fall and winter, peaking in January. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission advises cleaning the vent and exhaust duct periodically, and replacing plastic or foil accordion duct with rigid or semi-rigid metal duct.

Signs your vent needs it now: clothes take longer than one cycle to dry, the laundry room gets hot, the outside flap doesn’t open when the dryer runs, or lint collects around the outside hood.

What’s included

  • The dryer pulled out and the connection checked. Gas lines are never disconnected; if a gas connector has to be undone, that is a job for a licensed gas technician and we tell you before starting.
  • The full run brushed and vacuumed from both ends with rotary brushes.
  • The lint-trap cavity inside the dryer vacuumed.
  • The outside hood and flap cleared and tested.
  • Airflow checked at the outside hood before and after, with photos.
