Moving the dryer? Move the vent too.
When a dryer moves to a new wall, room or floor, its vent has to move with it. We reroute the duct and the exit so the new spot works properly.
- Scope: New run and new exit
- Old vent: Closed and sealed
What it is, and why it matters.
A new laundry location often means the old vent no longer lines up. Capping the old hole and building a new run is safer than stretching a long, kinked connector across the room.
We plan the new route, close and seal the old opening, install the new duct and hood and test it. We also look for ways to keep the run short so the dryer performs well in its new place.
Four things done right.
The old hole is handled
We close and seal it so there is no gap left.

We aim for the fewest bends and the shortest run.

Clamps, tape and flashing done properly.

Dryer Vent Relocation: common questions
Can you move a dryer vent to the other side of the house?
Often yes, but the route length matters. We check the distance and bends before promising anything.
What happens to the old vent opening?
We remove or cap the old hood and seal the wall so it is weather-tight.
