Great. Promised that they would be able to fix my problem, and did. Another company tried several time and failed each time. Vent in townhome was not constructed correctly and became clogged after a few years of use. Call a dryer vent cleaning service and they tried several times to correct the problem without success. Almetal Dryer Vent, came out and provided a solution. Problem fixed.

He really knew everything about what he was doing. He was really knowledgable and gave me a really good price. He was one of the best people I've had. He did a really thorough job.
Description of Work: He found that the connection in the ceiling for my dryer had been disconnected and he reconnected that. I have a small dryer and there is a hose back behind it that makes it hard to get in and out of there, and he replaced it with a periscope vent dryer which is much more convenient.

He is kind of an all-around handyman but is particularly good with ductworks and helping you change out appliances. His pricing was reasonable and he does quality work. I will use him again in the future.
Description of Work: I used Ray Terry to replace a Jenn-Air stove with a dual fuel stove and a hood in; in doing that he had to bring gas to the stove and do the ductwork for the new range hood because Jenn-Air has downdrafts and others don't.

Everything went great. Ray is very professional and easy to work with. Drying time has been cut in half. Thus the electricity savings will quickly pay for the install costs. Also - the piece of mind that a possible fire hazard has been removed is great as well. I highly recommend Ray and his services.
Description of Work: Ray replaced a flexible and clogged dryer vent hose with a new all metal dryer vent. The opening leading outside was originally 3 inches and needed to be expanded to 4 inches to support the new metal vent.

The entire project went great, from Ray's initial review and estimate of what he would do to the completion of the work. Ray was timely and kept me informed of most everything he was doing. He explained just how his new system worked and answered all my questions. Overall, I was completely satisfied and pleased with the finished job. Ray was personable, informative, patient with my inquiries, very knowledgeable about darn near anything, and very professional. I fully expect to use Ray's services again, in fact, we're already talking about another project.
Description of Work: Ray removed the existing dryer vent system and installed a new allmetal vent system that now vents directly into the wall behind the dryer and out through the roof via a new roof vent. The new system has only one single bend and makes air flow much freer. Ray closed and patched the old holes in the wall. .

Ray came over and took a look at the dryer layout and current venting method. He quoted me with a resonable price and we set the work date for 1 week out. He arrived on time and performed the work in about 1 hour and our drying time has decreased as he had told us that it would. He was very friendly and cleaned the dryer area prior to doing the work. He did a great job and now we have a metal vent system from the dryer to the outside. We definitely recommend his services.
Description of Work: Replaced the plastic dryer vent hose with the almetal dryer vent product added some metal pipe and cleaned out the existing dryer vent pipe.

Ray returned my call within 24 hours and was able to schedule an appointment quickly. He arrived early and got right to work. My dryer had been over heating and my husband and I could not find the exhaust pipe to the outside of the house. We have been in the house for only a year. Ray looked at the dryer and then began to look outside to find the vent. It was nowhere to be seen. Ray was able to figure out that the vent had been placed behind a wall and not vented! He rerouted the vent and installed the wonderful Almetal Dryer Vent, which is truly a great product... no more mismatched hoses. All this and he came in $50 under the estimate. Great Job!

Very good experience. It took very little effort on my part. I made one call and set the appointment. They had a slight conflict and called a couple of hours prior to their scheduled arrival and explained the situation. They were on-time at the rescheduled time and there were absolutely no problems.
Description of Work: They removed an old poorly installed plastic dryer vent and the old outdoor exhaust damper and replaced it with rigid metal vent pipe and a plaster damper. They installed everything properly and professionally and cleaned up their debris.

I left a voicemail one afternoon and received a called the next morning. We were able to scheduled an appointment for a following day that week. Ray actually called and came early, ready to install and was done in about 2 hours. The product works great! Ray Terry is very professional and helpful and I would highly recommend it and him to everyone. It once took me 2 1/2 hours just to dry any type of clothes, but now I am finished in about 30 minutes on a less heat setting.

I cannot say enough good things about Ray Terry and AlMetal Dryer Vent. The product is great! I went from an internal vent to all metal and am kicking myself for not doing it years ago. Ray Terry was incredibly responsive and installed the vent in a matter of days after I called and with minimal interruption to our lives. Also, we were having another problem with the dryer and he identified it, went to Home Depot for us and fixed it without us asking.

Mr. Terry was very professional and very knowledgeable not about just his new dryer vent system but remodeling as a whole. I was the victim of a sub-standard addition to my home. Mr. Terry gave me some great referrals to other work I was needing and gave me good information about NARI,(the national institute of remodeling) The dryer vent system is wonderful, much less bulky than a standard flex dryer hose and mostly maintenance free, and most important very safe! I would recommend Mr. Terry and his dryer vent system. He was in and out of my home in an hour and cleaned the area better than he found it. He also switched my dryer door to open the right way. I give him an A+ all the way!
Description of Work: Had a new dryer vent system installed, due to the fact the one I had was a improperly installed and a fire hazard.

I WAS REFERRED TO RAY TERRY BY A CO-WORKER. THE FORCE OF THE AIR COMING FROM THE NEW VENT IS MUCH GREATER THAN OLD VENT. RAY TERRY CALLED ME BACK QUICKLY, SET UP AN APPT. TO SUIT MY SCHEDULE, ARRIVED 10 MINUTES EARLY, AND DID A GREAT JOB. I SENT HIM DOWN TO MY NEIGHBOR AND HE DID HER DRYER VENT TOO. SHE WAS VERY PLEASED AS WELL. TERRY ALSO GAVE ME SOME VERY GOOD (AND FREE) ADVICE ON ANOTHER REMODELING PROJECT I WAS THINKING ABOUT. HE IS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIS PRODUCT AND SERVICES.
Description of Work: INSTALLED METAL DRYER VENT, METAL DUCT WORK, AND LOUVERED VENT; REMOVED OLD FLEXIBLE VENT HOSE FROM UNDER THE HOUSE, RE-ROUTED THE VENT TO THE FRONT OF THE HOUSE (BEHIND A BUSH, SO NOT VIEWABLE FROM THE FRONT), SO THE DISTANCE WOULD BE SHORTER. OLD FLEX HOSE HAD OVER 50% BLOCKAGE DUE TO LINT AND I HAD NOTICED MY DRYING TIMES WERE GETTING LONGER. ALSO, I WAS UNDER MY HOUSE RECENTLY AND SAW MY FLEXIBLE HOSE SAGGING BADLY AND COULD FEEL IT WEIGHTED DOWN (WITH LINT). I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT IT BEING A FIRE HAZARD.

WE HAD AN INEFFICIENT DRYER VENT THAT WAS CAUSING LONG DRYING TIMES - HARDLY ANY AIR FLOW WAS COMING THROUGH THE VENT. I'M AMAZED AT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS NEW SYSTEM AND THE CONVENTIONAL FLEX HOSE TYPE OF DRYER VENT. I WISH I HAD FOUND THIS COMPANY BEFORE HAVING THE OLD DRYER VENT CLEANED OUT - THE CLOTHES DRY IN HALF THE TIME NOW. RAY TERRY INSTALLED OUR NEW SYSTEM. HE IS ONE OF THE DEVELOPERS OF THIS SYSTEM AND NOW OWNS THE COMPANY. HE'S EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND DID A FANTASTIC JOB! THEY HAVE A GREAT WEBSITE WHICH DESCRIBES THE SYSTEM, SO WE WERE ABLE TO EDUCATE OURSELVES BEFORE MAKING THE DECISION ABOUT WHAT TO DO. IT'S NOT ONLY EFFICIENT, BUT IT'S THE SAFEST SYSTEM OUT THERE. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY.
