Appliances
Clear the dryer vent, shorten the dry time
SnapWork cleans the lint out of your dryer vent: the duct from the back of the dryer to the vent hood outside. The pro pulls the dryer out, clears the duct and the hood, reconnects it and checks the airflow. Clothes dry faster and lint stops building up where it can catch fire. Roof vents, crushed ducts and ducts hidden inside walls are priced from your photo. We work across Napa County and Solano County.

Signs the vent is clogged
- Clothes need more than one cycle to dry
- The dryer or laundry room gets very hot

What the pro does
Pulls the dryer forward, disconnects the duct, clears the lint from the dryer end to the outside hood, reconnects everything and runs the dryer to check the air coming out.
Do the hoses too
The washer is usually right next to the dryer. Old rubber washer hoses can burst; replacing them is a quick add-on.

Questions people ask
How often should a dryer vent be cleaned?
Once a year is a common rule, and sooner if clothes take longer than one cycle to dry or the laundry room gets hot.
How much does dryer vent cleaning cost?
Dryer vent cleaning has a posted price for a standard vent. The live price list on this page shows it.
My vent goes through the roof. Can you clean it?
Roof vents need roof access, so we price them from your photo first.
Is a clogged vent dangerous?
Lint is very flammable, and a clogged vent traps heat. Clearing it is a simple fire-safety step.
