More Than Just Lint Removal

Your dryer vent system is a fire hazard waiting to happen. Every load of laundry sends lint through your vents, and over time, that buildup restricts airflow and creates dangerous conditions.

Most people clean their lint trap but ignore the vent system itself. That’s where the real danger lives. Archangel Sparkle uses professional equipment to remove years of accumulated lint, debris, and blockages from your entire vent system.

Whether you’re a homeowner in Houston County or manage commercial properties, we provide the thorough cleaning your insurance company wishes you’d get annually.

Residential Dryer Vent Cleaning

Your Home Deserves Professional Protection

Every year, approximately 2,900 homes catch fire because of clogged dryer vents. That’s nearly eight house fires every single day. The tragedy is that every one of these fires was completely preventable with proper maintenance.

Here’s what most homeowners don’t realize: cleaning your lint trap catches maybe 75% of the lint your dryer produces. The rest travels through your vent system, sticking to walls and building up over months and years. When that lint gets hot enough, it ignites.

We’ve seen vents so packed with lint that it’s amazing the dryer worked at all. After professional cleaning, homeowners are shocked at how much faster their clothes dry and how much cooler their laundry room stays.

Commercial Dryer Vent Services

Business Properties Need More Frequent Care

Commercial dryers work harder and more frequently than residential units. Laundromats, apartment complexes, hotels, and office buildings cycle through loads all day long, which means lint accumulates much faster.

For business owners, a dryer fire isn’t just about property damage—it’s about liability, insurance claims, lost revenue, and potentially putting tenants or customers at risk. We work with property managers who understand that regular dryer vent maintenance isn’t optional; it’s essential risk management.

Our commercial cleaning services handles everything from single-unit apartment buildings to large multi-family complexes. We schedule maintenance around your business needs and provide documentation for your insurance and safety records.

Dryer Vent Cleaning FAQs

Common questions about Dryer Vent Cleaning

How often should I have my dryer vent professionally cleaned?

Most residential dryers should be professionally cleaned annually. However, if you do more than average laundry loads, have a large family, or notice your dryer taking longer to dry clothes, you may need cleaning every 6-8 months. Commercial properties typically need quarterly or bi-annual service depending on usage. The key warning signs are clothes taking multiple cycles to dry, the dryer feeling hot to touch, or a burning smell during operation. Don’t wait for these symptoms—they indicate you’re already at increased fire risk.

Can't I just clean the dryer vent myself?

While you can clean the lint trap and maybe the first few feet of ductwork, professional cleaning reaches the entire system. Most residential dryer vents run 15-25 feet from the dryer to the exterior, often with turns and bends that trap lint. DIY cleaning tools can actually push lint deeper into the system, making the problem worse. Professional equipment includes cameras to see inside the vent, specialized brushes that match your ductwork, and powerful vacuums that extract debris rather than relocating it. The investment in professional service is minimal compared to the cost of a house fire or premature dryer replacement.

What are the signs that my dryer vent needs cleaning?

The most obvious sign is clothes taking longer to dry—if you’re running two or three cycles for loads that used to dry in one, your vent is likely blocked. Other warning signs include the dryer feeling extremely hot during operation, a burning smell, lint visible around the outside vent opening, or the laundry room becoming uncomfortably warm. You might also notice increased humidity in the laundry area or lint accumulating faster in the trap than usual. If you experience any of these symptoms, schedule professional cleaning immediately—these are fire hazard indicators.

How much does professional dryer vent cleaning cost compared to potential damage?

Professional dryer vent cleaning typically costs between $100-200 for residential service, while commercial properties vary based on the number of units and complexity. Compare that to the average house fire damage of $35 million annually from dryer fires, plus the potential loss of life and displacement costs. Beyond fire prevention, clean vents save 20-30% on energy bills and can extend your dryer’s life by up to 25%. Most homeowners recover the cleaning cost in energy savings within a few months, making it one of the most cost-effective home maintenance services available.

Do you service both residential and commercial properties in Houston County?

Yes, we handle both residential homes and commercial properties throughout Houston County, TX. Our residential service covers single-family homes, townhouses, and condos. For commercial properties, we work with apartment complexes, laundromats, hotels, office buildings, and multi-family housing developments. We have experience with systems ranging from single residential units to 600+ unit apartment complexes.

What happens if you find damage or problems during the cleaning?

During our inspection and cleaning process, we check for damaged ductwork, improper connections, bird nests, or other issues that could affect safety or performance. If we discover problems, we’ll explain what we found, why it’s a concern, and provide options for repair. We never perform unexpected work without your approval and pricing upfront. Many issues we find are simple fixes like replacing a damaged transition hose or installing a bird guard. More complex problems like damaged ductwork or improper installations require additional work, but we’ll give you a clear explanation and fair pricing for any necessary repairs to ensure your system operates safely.
