Dryer Vent Cleaning in Monsey & 30 miles around
Clogged dryer vents start roughly 13,000 house fires a year. Yours takes an hour to fix.
What this service actually is
Lint is one of the most flammable things in your house, and every load packs a little more of it into the duct. A blocked vent means longer dry times, a hotter machine, higher bills and a genuine fire risk — especially in the long, twisting duct runs common in split-levels and townhomes around Rockland and Bergen.
What you get
- Full duct cleaning from the machine to the exterior termination
- Rotary brush and high-pressure air for long, elbowed runs
- Exterior vent hood cleaned and damper freed so it actually closes
- Airflow measured before and after so you can see the difference
- Faster drying, lower energy bills and a longer-lived dryer
How we do it
1. Measure airflow
We check the airflow at the termination first so there is a real before-and-after number, not a vibe.
2. Clean the full run
Rotary brush through the entire duct, vacuum at the machine end, and hand cleaning of the vent hood outside.
3. Reconnect and verify
Machine pulled back, duct reconnected correctly with clamps (never screws into the airflow path), and airflow re-measured.
Signs you need dryer vent cleaning
If any of these sound familiar, it is worth a call. There is no charge to ask.
- Clothes take two cycles to dry
- The dryer or the laundry room gets very hot during a cycle
- A burning or musty smell while running
- Lint visible around the outside vent hood, or the flap never opens
- It has been more than a year — or you have never had it done
What it costs
Dryer Vent Cleaning typically runs $149 – $299 for a standard single-family home in our service area, and takes about 45–75 minutes. The variables that move that number are roof access, flue height, how many flues share the stack, and condition.

“We had a leak for two years and three different guys blamed the roof. Hero found it in twenty minutes — flashing, exactly like they said. Fixed, sealed, no more stain on the ceiling.”
Why homeowners pick Hero
We are a family company working out of Monsey, not a national franchise routing your call to a dispatcher three states away. That means the person who quotes your job is on the roof doing it, the price does not change halfway through, and if something is not right afterward we are twenty minutes away.
Every visit includes photo documentation. Every recommendation comes with an explanation of what happens if you wait, so you can make the call on your own timeline instead of ours.
Dryer Vent Cleaning — common questions
How often should dryer vents be cleaned?
Once a year for a typical household. Every six months for large families, homes with pets, or long duct runs over about 15 feet with multiple elbows.
Is flexible foil duct a problem?
Yes. Ribbed foil and plastic duct trap lint and are prohibited by most codes for concealed runs. We recommend and install rigid or semi-rigid metal.
Can you handle a roof or second-floor termination?
Yes — long vertical runs are exactly the ones that clog worst, and we are already set up to work on roofs.
Do you clean condo and townhouse vents?
Regularly, including full-building schedules for property managers and HOAs across Rockland and Bergen.
