Chances are if you’re reading this, you may not have any clue what to look for when hiring someone to clean your dryer vents. What type of company does this type of work and how can you tell if they will do a good job?

Dryer Vent Squad of Huntsville can help you get an idea of how to find a dryer vent cleaner and choose a good one. Based on our expertise with Alabama dryer vent cleaning, we can offer a few things to look for when hiring a dryer vent cleaner!

Experience

First, you’ll want to find a company that specializes in dryer vents. Many companies offer dryer vent cleaning services, but there is a lot of value in the experience that comes with cleaning and repairing dryer vents all day, every day. In the Huntsville metro area, we have seen it all. We’ve come across problems with dryer vents that are most common and we’ve learned to fix them in the most efficient way. We’ve also come across uncommon problems that have given us the chance to troubleshoot so we will know what to do if we see the problem again in the future.

Fully insured & Guaranteed Work

Ask your potential dryer vent cleaner if they are fully insured. This offers everyone optimal levels of safety and protection. It’s also important to know if they will guarantee their work, so if a problem comes up you will know it will be fixed without a hassle. At Dryer Vent Squad of Huntsville, all our work comes with a 90 workmanship guarantee and we only use parts that come with a lifetime warranty!

The Company Will Explain Their Process in Advance

Your dryer vent cleaning company should be able to explain their process to you in a way that is easy to understand. If the dryer vent extends or terminates on the roof, ask them how they will access that termination, whether in the attic or on the roof.  At Dryer Vent Squad of Huntsville we always check the roof jack to ensure the cleaning process is done properly and to confirm that the vent is routed safely, up to code, and with a clear path for lint to exit.

Experienced Technicians Who Are Not Paid on Commission

It is important to know that the technician who cleans your dryer vent is knowledgeable. Ask how much experience their technicians have. You should also ask whether or not the technicians are paid on commission. During the dryer vent inspection and cleaning process, your technician may observe materials that are unsafe or inefficient. You will want to know that these suggestions are being made objectively, and not just to make a sale. Our technicians at Dryer Vent Squad of Huntsville are certified dryer exhaust technicians, extremely knowledgeable, and not paid on commission, so you can be sure that every suggestion made is in the best interest of the customer and their home.
