Our workman provided excellent customer service. Our vent had broken (my husband tried to clean it himself) and there's was lint all over the attic space. He cleaned it, repaired the vent and inspected everything.

It really needed cleaning and I could see more efficient dryer time after the service because it took less time to dry the clothes. I have a 2 story house so I was told because of how the venting system is configured it cost "more" money. I really didn't shop around enough I guess. I found out when I referred someone else I got a referral credit. Still I would've preferred paying less for my own service in the first place. Not having any experience with dryer vent cleaning, I am afraid I paid too much and next time would look for the lowest possible price and the best reviews. There was also an "issue" with getting my credit check in a timely fashion and I had to follow up several times. At least the franchise owner was "accessible".

Hello, I'm sorry your not satisfied with the price. Actually $150.00 is industry standard. Cheap can be expense. There are competitors out there and you can get cheap prices but please be aware of the service you may get. I apologize for credit problem, I can not recall what happened. Thank you for your business!

We were very pleased. It was a cleanup but it didn't need cleaning so they ended up installing a dryer vent and he only charged for the vent so I was really pleased. They did good work. They came when they said they would come. They were very professional and courteous. They cleaned up after themselves. The price was reasonable. They are all the things you look for so there's nothing negative.

He was very good. The work turned out great and he gave me a great rate.
Description of Work: They performed a dryer vent cleaning. The hose from my dryer to the house was very clogged. My hose was very long and it was kinked up which was making it easier to clog. He cut the hose in half and pulled the dryer away from the wall a bit to make straighter path.

The service was excellent! I am very conscious about cleaning out my lint catcher after each load of laundry. There was a lot of lint that got inside the dryer which looked like a fire hazard. We were thinking about getting a new dryer and now there is no need since the air flow is good after the service. We tried to clean the vent ourselves but without the proper equipment did not get the air flow like Dryer Wizard got..
Description of Work: Cleaned dryer vent from dryer to roof. Cleaned transition connection from dryer to wall. Cleaned lint tray cavity inside dryer (lots of lint in there).Tested air flow before and after. Technician gave lots of good information about dryers. Air flow increased significantly after excellent cleaning. Bought maintenance program.

Response from Dryer Vent Wizard of Sacramento
Hello [member name removed], I am sorry to hear the technician left lint on the side of your home. I am MORE than willing to send the technician back out to your place ASAP to clean whatever lint was left! As far as the dryer not drying, as explained, when ever you do not clean your dryer vent it will cause the dryer to malfunction, not work properly, long dry times, heating elements or thermo fuses will burn out. We do not have anything to do with the dryer, We only clean repair and install dryer vents. As explained once the dryer vent is cleaned out and you continue to have problems more than likely you have burned out the heating element or thermo fuse and will need to call a "dryer repair company" to fix your dryer. In some instances after we clean the vent the dryer will reset itself and dry your clothes, but again, often times it will need to be repaired. I assure you dryer vent wizard has cleaned your vent and provided the service you paid for. What we did has nothing to do with the functionality of your dryer vent. If you would have had your dryer repaired and not cleaned your dryer vent the dryer would have broke down again. Please call me direct if you have any further questions or need my technician to come out and clean up whatever debris was left on the side of your home! Sincerely, Owner

My neighbor was getting this service done. So I asked for a visual inspection and estimate for mine. The Tech was very pleasant and informative. Estimated exactly when he'd be through with the neighbor so I wouldn't have to wait around for his visit. His job took about an hour, and then he came to my house. Explained the details. No pressure, just information. Because this house is new to me, and I didn't know the timing of services previously performed, I went ahead with the job. It had been taking me about 1+1/2 hrs. of dry time. He pulled out about 2 feet of blockage (lint & dirt). The Tech explained how a blockage increases wear & tear on the Dryer element, utility bills, and is what "can" lead to fires because of the increased temp. Apparently the Tech "snakes" through the line to the outside vent, where he measures airflow and temp, and cleans and collects all the accumulation. For future referrals the company offered a referral fee to keep good (and honest) word of mouth going around. I would recommend the company even if that weren't the case. I liked that he was already doing the job for my neighbor, who is a very good shopper and home utility expert. My Tech's name is "Will" and he was extremely patient with all my questions, as I really like to understand the service being performed, how and why. He said people always have a lot of questions the first time and that's part of good customer service!

We had our dryer vent inspected and cleaned. The technician arrived exactly on schedule and proceeded to explain exactly what he would be doing. He did a thorough inspection of our vent and then laid out the plan for cleaning it and the total charges. He then completed the work and when done, showed us the increase in efficiency readings. We appreciated his professionalism and the manner in which he carefully explained all the details of his work. He left the laundry room very neat and clean and the dryer is now working much better. We would definitely use this company again. They cost a little more than others, but they are worth every penny.

I selected this company because they are in Angie's list. honor The cost was higher than average. When i called the owner for the discount listed on Angie's list she said there is a $20 discount. However, the technician said they don't honor senior discounts or any other discount.. The technician was punctual, friendly, and professional. The dryer vent cleaning was $199 and additional charge of $89 for changing the exhaust tube (that cost $ 9.00 at Home Depot) plus the tech added $29 "to avoid any increase fro next cleaning cost". Total paid was $316.00.
Description of Work: clean the dryer vent and change exhaust tube at the back of my dryer to shorter a one.

Dear Customer, Please let me clarify that we always honor angie's list discounts and senior discounts. If this is truly the fact the technician said we do not honor discounts this will be corrected immediately! I am confused as to why any technician would say this as all of my employees are seasoned technicians and know our policy. Please call me direct to discuss and we will refund the discounted amount. Also, your vent line was longer than the average vent line and this is the reason for the pricing to clean the vent line. Although you may be able to pick up material to install the transition from dryer to wall from home depot please be aware that not all of the material they carry is code compliant for dryer venting. It may look the same but according to the Under Wrtiers Laboratory, Consumer Products and the dryer manufacturer(s) the material does need meet code. In addition, to install a transition of heavy metal pipe is not an easy task it takes time, material and labor to install. This is why many companies such as your home depot when delivering your new dryer install the metal foil transition because it is an easy installation, no labor required but it also clearly states and the back of most dryers "fire" hazard use heavy metal vent only. The Lifetime Guarantee program for the $29 dollars you mentioned is optional. This is offered to every customer to guarantee a locked in discounted price for all future cleanings for the life of your home, this is optional and was explained in detail and never is a requirement to have your vent cleaned. It works the same as any warranty program, you can purchase or you do not have to purchase. I hope this clears things up for you and as stated above please feel free to call me concerning your discount. Respectfully, Owner

Team of 2, one was training the other.Arrived within time frame given. Professional, explained in detail new code to bring the vent up to date. I had purchased a set, matching washer and dryer 6 months old from Craigs List.. It had been hooked up by the prior owners for me, using the old exhaust hosing that I had. It was much better to replace the venting in the long run and he told me that it cuts down on fires. The only thing I quibbled about was the price. I was told it could be anywhere from $159 to 199. So I asked him if he did anything unusual, and he said "no" . The job went smooth and was fast, so he cut the price to the minimum. I would gladly recommend this company to everyone. They do one thing and they do it well.
Description of Work: Installed new venting from dryer to outside. The variagated metal piece is solidly attached at both ends.

Work done and finished to our complete satisfaction.
Description of Work: We realized we needed to replace our under house dryer vent. Jason explained the procedure and various options we could take. He did a thorough inspection then reviewed the options, low cost or otherwise. We chose to completely replace the under house venting system and upgraded the transition vent from the dryer to the outlet. We will use them for future cleaning when due.

Overall it was a good experience and i have reccomended this company.
Description of Work: I called dryer vent wizards after seeing a story on chanel 3 about dryer fires. What caught my attention in the story was that they said one of the causes of this type of fire was a cloged dryer vent, asnd that a cloged vent would increase the time it took to dry cloths. This struck home with me as over the past year its taken almost 2 hours for a load of laundry to dry, yet my dryer is only two years old. After seeing the story, i moved the dryer myself to clean the vent, and found it was totall packed. At this point i though i had the problem solved. However, once i did a load of laundry, it still took the same amount of time. A couple days later i gave them a call and scheduled an apt. The service tech was nice and communicated well. He found a clog in the middle of the pipe and removed it. Now i can dry my clothes in about 45 min. The only negaitve i can say is that over the phone they gave me a quote, based on a low and then max price, but when the tech arrived he would firm up the price. When he got there, he said that there was definetly a problem and that it would be expensive, unless of course, the office had already quoted a price, and if so he would honor it. This of course was nothing more than a sales tactic. However, the price was reasonable and he did not try to upsell me. I have already reccomended them to severals other since.

I'm glad you were satisfied with the service! I would just like to clear up one thing. The reason why we give a price range is because we do not know what we are going to find until we get into the home. We have learned in the past sometimes once the technician enters the home the vent line is 20 feet long and not 5 feet long, so if we tell the customer it's $99 based on the information they provided and it is actually 20 feet long then we become the bait and switch company and that is the last thing we want to be known as. I hope this clears up the reasoning for our price range. Thank you again and glad to hear you are recommending us to your friends and family!
