Did you know that most house fires caused by clothes dryers result from outdated or improperly installed dryer vents? The U.S. Fire Administration reports that every year, thousands of residential fires occur because of clothes dryers, with the two biggest reasons being failure to clean the dryer vent and improper venting.
Here’s Why Replacing Your Dryer Vent Matters:
If your dryer vent is using flexible foil or plastic vent tubing, it needs to be replaced.
Are you unsure if you need to get your dryer vent cleaned or if you need to replace it? Look at these warning signs that clearly show you need to replace your dryer vent:
This usually means your vent pipe has been crushed, separated, or improperly sized.
Lint and poor ventilation create a fire hazard.
An improperly routed dryer vent allows hot air to enter the laundry room.
Any cracked, sagging, bent, kinked, or destroyed foil ducts need to be replaced.
Poor venting directs moisture into walls or attics, particularly in homes with long vent runs.
We do not use short-term fixes. Our process for dryer vent replacement is a complete and thorough process that gives you the best dryer vent performance.
We inspect your existing vent line, the amount of airflow you’re getting, how the vent was routed, and where it was terminated.
All old and potentially hazardous materials, such as foil or vinyl ducting, are safely removed.
We install new smooth-walled, rigid or semi-rigid metal ducting that provides maximum airflow and fire protection.
We minimize the number of bends and make the shortest path to the exterior.

After completion, we test for proper airflow and make sure that everything is working correctly before finishing the job.
