Excellent service from start to finish! My service man came when he said he would and completed the job when he said he would. He explained what he was going to do before he did it and reviewed what he did at the end. He was polite, friendly, and professional. I would recommend this company to anyone who wanted an honest, fair, and complete assessment of and care of their dryer vent.
Description of Work: Dryer Vent Wizard cleaned out the vent in my dryer, the vent going outside my home from the dryer, and checked the timer dial (which doesn't move) on the dryer to make sure it was safe.

The man who showed up looked professional, went to work, explained the problem and solved it. It didn't take very long and he had some type of meter that showed that my vent went from 26 to 32. My clothes dry fine now. He recommended that I call for service as soon as I notice that it is taking longer to dry the clothes, so I save energy and money. Good advice.

Absolutely wonderful to work with. We bought a new home and had installed new dryer not knowing that the previous home owners had never cleaned out the dryer vent. Needless to say our new dryer was not working. Sent them an email early in the morning to come out and they were able to make it out the same day. They were very informative. Changed our entire dryer vent since it was foil. Surprising that the applicance store we purchased the dryer from didn't mention that it specifically says in our owners manual of the dryer not to use a foil vent when they installed it! Anyway, I would highly recommend them! Fast, affordable and friendly!

They did a good job. They instructed me how to take care of the screen that you put inside the drier. They also gave me all general information about what they did, which I really appreciated. I would use their service in the future.

My dryer was very clogged with lint and I had never had the vent cleaned. The vent is very long with several elbows, and Carl informed me that it was not up to code in several respects, part of it was plastic, it had screws in the parts that were metal instead of appropriate taping and it was not properly bracketed to prevent movement, and the outside vent cover was not the right kind to have. On the initial appointment he cleaned the dryer, and then returned a second time to repair and replace the vent and install a new vent cover. He was very prompt and professional, and explained everything to me in detail. I am very pleased.

Everything went well. He was friendly and helpful.
Description of Work: He cleaned out the dryer vents (which I don't believe had ever been done before). He replaced the vent cover on the outside of the house. The old one had broken off because of large snow accumulations. The new cover is flat against the house, so this won't happen again.

Carl was wonderful to work with and took the time to thoroughly explain the process. He arrived on time on the scheduled date. I was the contact person for the work, and Carl did an excellent job of keeping me informed during the process and he followed up afterward. The work was done carefully and efficiently with minimal disruption. We will be hiring him to provide this service for our association every other year. Anyone looking for a reliable company to work with could not go wrong with this choice!
Description of Work: Our townhome association hired this company to clean the dryer vents of the 12 units in our complex. Our dryers are vented out the roof so this made cleaning more complicated and involved. All the vents were cleaned via the rooftop, screens were removed from the vents that should have been removed at installation (They had caused expensive problems for some previously.), and the dryer vent connections were inspected at the interior dryer hook-up. Problems were found at the interior hook-up points of two units, and Carl obtained permission from the owners to repair them for a most reasonable cost.

Carl did a great job inspecting the venting system and cleaning the vent. He noted some things that were not up to code and suggested some changes I could make in the system. He did not pressure me at all, just explained why the opening and the outside vent should be made bigger. He did all the work quickly and neatly. He was friendly and helpful. I will definitely call on him again.

The contractor arrived on time. He introduced himself as Carl Hein, he's the owner and president of the company. Very knowledgeable, groomed, polite, and informative in answering all my questions. After he was done he cleaned up after himself and showed me his personal cell number on the reciept in case something happens becuase his work is guaranteed. My overall experience and feeling about this company is execptional. I would definatly use this company again and recommend it to family friends.
Description of Work: I used the discount from the "Big Deal" offer for my dryer vent cleaning. He inspected the inside of the dryer and the outside of the house where the vent cover is. He informed me that he would do the cleaning but that it's the age of my dyer thats the problem. He offered to retape joints and strapping was applied. New vent cover was placed then the cleaning was done. When he was finished he walked me through and showed/explained everything he did. We went outside and inspected the new vent cover. He has a tool that measures the air flow coming out of the vent and it started at 18 and after all the repairs and improvements it jumped to 23.

I communicated with Carl by e-mail and everything went smoothly. He was able to send someone within the same week and gave me pricing information up front via e-mail. The estimate was for what he had predicted. The work was done quickly and professionally and neatly, and all the delivery guys had to do was connect the vent.
Description of Work: They installed a new vent for my new dryer, which involved installing a rigid pipe and cutting a hole in my foundation to vent to a different location.

I'm a newer home owner and recently learned it is important to have your dryer vent cleaned on a regular basis to prevent lint fires. So after doing a little research on the web and Angie's List I decided to contact Dryer Vent Wizard. I requested service via Dryer Vent Wizard's website, the owner, Carl, promptly emailed me back the same day. I scheduled an appt for the next day which was perfect. The service tech, Kevin, arrived on time and quickly got to work to check out my vent. I wasn't sure where the vent exited the house and Kevin helped me discover it was under the deck (our dryer is in the basement). He explained what he would do, provided a quote, I accepted, and he got to work. Since my dryer vent comes out the back of the house under the deck, to access the vent from the outside Kevin neatly cut out an access in the deck, replaced my old vent cover with a new vent cover, plus trimmed back the vent line which had previously stuck out from the house too far, so now it is flush with the side of the house. He then cleaned the vent thoroughly and closed up the new deck access. After that Kevin came back inside and vacuumed out the dryer itself. The whole time Kevin was professional & knowledgeable. Overall awesome experience! I will definitely use Dryer Vent Wizard in the future for all my dryer vent needs :)
Description of Work: Vent line cleaning, side wall vent cover replaced, built access to dryer vent in deck.

Our dryer stopped working and would have no response to pressing start button. Carl checked the obvious things that might disrupt power to the dryer. These all were OK. We both decided that the most likely thing was the dryer over-heated from poor venting and blew the Limit fuse inside. I told him I could fix that myself, but I would probably still have a venting problem. So he completely cleaned out the exhaust system of the dryer and installed a new vent to the outside. The work was well-done and up to code, unlike the job done by a previous owner.
Description of Work: Troubleshoot cause of Dryer not working. Cleaned dryer exhaust and installed new venting to outside.

Carl arrived on time and did an excellent job of examining my ducts to figure out what needed to be done. He explained everything very well and gave me options regarding the duct issues. I decided to replace a portion of the ductwork and he did so quickly and it looks so much better with fewer bends and joints. My clothes dry in a fraction of the time so I expect to save a lot of money in the future! I highly recommend Dryer Vent!

I ended up spending a little more than I originally thought I would for this service, but that's because I didn't realize how substandard my existing duct/vent was. Now that I have a much better one, I really appreciate how much sturdier it is, and how much easier it will be to maintain. The work was VERY thorough and VERY neat and clean (he vacuumed and left the utility room in better shape than he found it!). I'm very satisfied with the value and the quality of the work.
Description of Work: My dryer duct hose was disconnected when I had a boiler replaced, and the boiler replacement people didn't reconnect the duct, and I wasn't able to do it myself. So I wanted the duct hose reconnected as well as cleaned. The Dryer Vent Wizard gentleman took a look at my duct hose and told me that it should be replaced with a better, more permanent duct, and that he could do that at reasonable cost.

The technician arrived about 10 minutes early. His manner was professional and friendly. He explained the process, which was to check the dryer and then give me a quote for the work I requested. His explanations were clear and he answered all my questions. I didn't feel rushed or pressued in any way. I had the dryer vents cleaned about five years ago. Dryer Vent Wizard's charges were in line with what I paid before. I felt comfortable dealing with a company that specializes in this type of work. I would use this vendor again, and would recommend them.

I phoned dryer vent wizard and got an estimate of the cost. The work was scheduled for later in the week. He arrived on time, looked at the job, and told me the cost. In order for the rigid metal tube to fit, he had to enlarge the space a little, and discussed the options with me. We decided that he would saw a little off the 2X10 (in the basement ceiling near the outside wall of the house) and take out a little off the top of the top block of the cement block wall. The ceiling in the laundry room is not finished, so it was easy to get to this area. I asked whether I could clean the floor behind and under the dryer while he had it pulled out, but he said he would clean it. He insulated the top few feet of the vent. He also cleaned the lint out of the dryer. He turned on the dryer and showed me the finished product. He cleaned up the work area well. He was knowledgeable, personable and professional.
Description of Work: replacing the old plasic dryer vent (which is not up to current code and is a fire hazard) with rigid metal and also replacing the vent on the outside of the house, since that old vent didn't close properly.

We were very pleased. We looked up a 1/2 dozen of them and started calling. We liked that Dryer Vent Wizard's specialty was strictly working with dryer vents. They have contracts with a lot of the bigger companies. Apparently they have been doing this for a long time.
