Packed solid? We clear it out.
When a vent is nearly or fully blocked, you notice it: damp clothes, a hot dryer and a burning smell. Heavy clogs need a careful, patient clearing.
- Typical sign: Damp clothes after a full cycle
- Method: Staged brushing from both ends
What it is, and why it matters.
A heavily clogged vent may hold years of lint, sometimes a solid plug. The dryer overheats, the high-limit switch cuts the heat, and loads take two or three cycles. Stop using the dryer if the vent is badly blocked or you smell burning.
We work from both ends with brushes sized to the duct, break up the plug in stages and vacuum as we go, then inspect the duct for crushed sections, loose joints or damage that caused the clog in the first place.
Four things done right.
Patient, staged clearing
A packed plug is broken up in steps so it does not jam the duct.
Cause, not just symptom
We look for the kink, joint or layout that made it clog.
Both ends worked
Reaching from the dryer and the hood clears the plug faster.
Clear next steps
If repairs are needed, we tell you before doing anything.

Clogged Dryer Vent Clearing: common questions
Is it safe to keep using a clogged dryer?
If the vent is badly blocked or you smell burning, stop using the dryer until the vent is cleared.
Why does my dryer take so long now?
A restricted vent holds back air, so heat and moisture stay in the drum and the cycle drags on.
