Description of Work: They drilled a hole in the wall and ran the dryer vent through it. It turned out fine, although I thought it was overpriced. Also, they were not able to properly cover and seal the old hole. They said they would try and all they did was cover it with a piece of tape. But overall he was very friendly.

Response from Dryer Vent Wizard of Sacramento
Hello Mr [Member Name Removed], First I would like to thank you for using dryer vent wizard. I have reviewed your invoice and would like to explain the services a little more detailed. You had more than a hole drilled. There was a service fee, vent cover installation and the 4" hole drilled. Please understand, drilling through outside walls are typically a minimum of 4-10 inches thick of stucco, brick or wood. This process is not an easy or quick process if done correctly. Sometimes you may go through 2 sets of hole saws and requires a lot of manpower to break through all of the layers and can be more difficult if standing on a ladder to do so. Masonary companies would have charged the same price or more just to drill the hole with no other services. I would like to address the covering of the old hole, it was not just a piece of tape. Underneath the tape is a 4" sheetrock or stucco behind it to seal the hole. If you have any questions or concerns please call me direct. We are here to provide outstanding customer service and quality work! Respectfully, Owner

Description of Work: The technician was punctual, professional and honest. He pointed out that our dryer hookup didn't need the service we ordered, but he did note that the previous owners had installed hazardous plastic tubing that could catch fire. He recommended replacing the tubing, which he did, for a lower cost than the original service estimate. He finished quickly and cleaned up all dust and debris. We would heartily recommend Dryer Vent Wizard.

Called to have dryer vents checked as it had been 5 years since we bought the dryer. Joseph G. arrived on time, and proceeded to remind us what professional service all about. Not only did he perform an excellent checkup, he explained each item on the checklist as he performed each step. Joseph made a couple of adjustments to the dryer vent set-up, adjusted the washer hoses, and kept my wife informed as he went along. we're one happy customer as the service far exceeded the price. Should we need our dryer vent serviced in the future, we'll be sure to give the Dryer Vent Wizard a call. Job Well Done!!!
Description of Work: checked dryer start-up checked the connections to the dryer checked the lint trap and screen checked the entire vent line even check the washer hoses and leveled both units final start-up inspection re-installed the vent connections to the wall and the dryer AND, they applied a $20.00 Angie's List coupon

Response from Dryer Vent Wizard of Sacramento
Thank you Member, as I do not have time to respond to all of the postings from my customers I periodically go in and view them. Yours particularly stood out because you pointed out the professional service and the check list we go by. A lot of companies and consumers overlook the functionality of the dryer vent and it is one of the most deadliest appliances in the home, due to the overwhelming numbers of dryer fires, and the most costly when clogged. This is what our company stands for, we are a full service dryer venting industry, our company is designed to solve the problem(s) and educate the consumer to lower energy bills and prevent dryer fires. All we do is clean, repair, install dryer vents so our focus is only on one profession which enables us to stay on top of the ever changing codes, requirements etc. Thank you and thank everyone who see's the value in our service!

This company was recommended to me by Huft Heating and Air Conditioning. Appointment was made in a timely fashion. I was given the name Joseph, the technician who would be performing the service. Our laundry room is in an inner room, so the dryer vents up through a wall, attic, and out the roof. Joseph arrived on time and cleaned out the dryer vent, and then went up on the roof to take anemometer and vent termination temperature readings, which were found to be good. The whole process did not take very long, and he cleaned up the area around the dryer before leaving. I thought it was a little pricey, but a $20 coupon and waived service fee of $39 helped bring down the cost.
Description of Work: Dryer vent was cleaned out and exit site on roof checked.

It’s a company owned by a woman. I called another company that came out three times, but never fixed the problem. Then my wife called Dryer Vent Wizard and the owner came out. She assessed the problem, gave me a price and she fixed it that day. I can’t say enough about her. She is outstanding. I paid about $500 for her services. She is honest and very straightforward. If she tells you she will do something, she does it. You can’t do better than that. She is amazing and I have nothing but praises for her. I would also refer her in a heartbeat. She had to cut a hole in the wall. She sent her associate up to the wall and he had to pull out a piece of tube that wasn’t up to code. She went in to fix the mess up done by somebody else and made it right. I couldn’t dry the clothes prior to her being here. After she left, I not only could dry the clothes, but the clothes were drying faster than they were supposed to. I would definitely use her services in the future too.
Description of Work: I used the services of Dryer Vent Wizard about a few months ago for fixing my dryer.

I was not able to reach the local office, so I called the national line, who scheduled the appointment for the same week. I asked for an approximate amount in general or by linear feet. She said I would receive an estimate when the serviceman arrived. On the appointment day a friendly young man arrived and almost immediately started giving me a sales pitch about how my exterior vent was old and could be letting in pests &/or rodents. We then went inside to look at the dryer & again he pointed out a replacement item I "needed". I then told him that I needed the basic quote before I could consider any additional costs, to which he reiterated for the 4th time that he was just trying to "educate" me. The estimate was about 4x as much as I had expected to pay, half of which was for the vent cleaning alone. He went to his truck to talk to his manager about the $$, I went out & told him to just forget the whole thing. About 3 minutes after he left the manager called me to see what went wrong, which I did appreciate, but I told him it was too late & that his serviceman seemed more like a salesman. The manager was professional, he apologized and offered to honor the reduced rate if I changed my mind over the next few weeks (no specific time limit).
Description of Work: Sales pitch, candie coated in an estimate.

Response from Dryer Vent Wizard of Sacramento
This post in response to the member. First of all I would like to apologize for the experience you had with the DVW technician. I would like to explain what our company’s goal is. We are not trying to give a sales pitch. All of our information we are sharing with you are facts from the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the Underwriters Laboratory, the National Association of the Fire Dept, and the Dryer Manufacturers recommendation. Our company prides ourselves on being a "complete" dryer venting industry. What we do is asses the entire functionality of the venting system. Many companies will just clean the dryer vent and still leave a potential hazard because the entire system was not checked out thoroughly which only provides a temporary fix. If we just clean the vent line without looking at the termination point(vent cover), the transition from the dryer to the wall(which states on the back of the dryer DO NOT USE METAL FOIL OR PLASTIC due to a fire hazard, the lint accumulation in the dryer etc, then we are not doing our job. We are a reputable company and may be a little higher than others but we are also providing more services and the quality of work stands for itself. Sometimes cutting corners can be expensive in the long run. In addition- this is why there are more than 100,000 dryer fires occurring every year and the number keeps growing according to the NFPA, because the entire functionality of the venting system is not inspected and or repaired by a qualified trained professional. (Please do not take what I just said as a sales pitch-its fact) We are desperately trying to drive this home to the consumer by educating homeowners one home at a time. As for the Call Center, you may or may not be aware of how call centers work; the staff at call centers do not know pricing. What should have happened immediately is they should have called me direct so I could call you and go over your system as best as possible over the phone therefore I would have been able to give you a rough estimate which at that time you could have made a decision to have us come out or not. I did make a phone call to the call center and explained "again" what the process is, I also found out this customer service rep was new and was not aware of the standard procedure regarding quotes, so I do apologize again and hope you now have a clearer understanding of what we stand for and the types of service we provide. Please feel free to call me direct if you have any more questions or concerns 916 519-4569

We had a clogged dryer vent going out of the dryer, up and over the garage and outside the house. I guess it was pretty clogged. She came over, worked on it and cleared it up. This service was fast and excellent. She seemed extremely knowledgeable. We have never had this done before so I am not sure of the price. We will consider using this provider again in the future.

Gina was fantastic on the phone in terms of scheduling. I had company in town for the holidays and had just moved into the house and had to get the dryer in working order as quickly as possible. We changed the appointment time a few times in order to accommodate the delivery of the new dryer. She proactively called me to check in about the appointment time and was always super pleasant to talk to. The technician arrived promptly in the time window Gina had scheduled and worked for about 2 hours. They honored a 10% off coupon that I had from an appliance repair place. The cost above reflects not only the cleaning but a lifetime maintenance fee-- for my house (with about 12' of dryer vent) I paid $29 now and then all future cleanings are $99 a year.
Description of Work: The technician cleaned out my dryer vent which leads to the roof. He removed a ton of compacted lint and small stones (from the tar and gravel roof). He then set up my new dryer in the space.

It went very well. They arrived on time and got right to work. Gina was thorough and courteous. As a plus, they came back the next day and fixed up the pipe to look better because Gina was disatisfied the first time and wanted it to look right. I appreciate her pride in her company's work. My only negative is that I thought the cost was awfully high, and Gina gave us two or three discounts off of their "book" prices. But then, I haven't had this done before and may be very wrong in my own estimates.
Description of Work: Removed old venting for dryer, covered old opening, added 23 ft. of venting and redirected it to the outside. Added a hole to the side of the house and a vent cover. They had an unusual setting to work in and had to work around electrical conduit.

We were very pleased to have Gina work on our problem. Our dryer line is long and had never been cleaned out before. We had just purchaed a new dryer and had burned out two heating units in one year. When I saw the singed lint and realized how lucky we were not to have had a fire, I realized how important it is to have the services of Gina at Dryer Vent Wizard.
Description of Work: In April of 2007 we contacted Gina at Dryer Vent Wizard at the recommendation of the dryer servcie tech who was out to repalce the dryer heating element for the 2nd time that year. We called Gina that day. She arrived the next day, reviewed the job and gave us an estimate of $600.00. She cleaned out the clogged lint(and there was a ton of it), the accumulated water, replaced the vent cover, and replaced the hose from the dryer to the wall because the dryer installer used one that was no longer upto code. She and her associate were here for 4 hours. In Mayof 2008 we had Gina's company perform yearly maintanance for $150.00. The dryer line was cleaned out and checked for any damage.

Gina Fazil inspected the vent lines, determined no air flow, gave an estimate and with our OK, she began to clean the lines. In the process, it was determined that there was a break in the line between two floors. She later returned in the afternoon with another technician and a video camera to determine where the break was. Once determined, it was necessary to cut a hole in the ceiling to gain access for the repair. We could easily tell it was an old break, not one caused by the vent cleaning. Two more breaks further down the line were discovered and another hole had to be cut in another area. These repairs were made in tight areas with the proper A/C vent tape. The original builder used duct tape. They made great efforts to make sure the job was done properly to ensure our future safety and they made good efforts at clean up.
Description of Work: Cleaned clogged dryer vent, discovered three breaks in the vent line, repaired and re-cleaned vent line. Also put in correct vent line connection to the dryer.

The price was outrageous and I guess the work was fine, but I just felt taken. Another company recommended them, but the prices were all over the place and it was hard to tell where all the money went. At least they returned my phone calls and arrived on time. They were very clean and in uniforms. I will look for someone else next time.
Description of Work: They cleaned out 5 gallons of lint from the dryer vent. The job took about 3 hours.
