The tech was an hour and a half early, which was great. He called ahead to make sure I would be there. The work was quick and done well. He gave me some pointers on how to keep up with maintaining the system.
Description of Work: Cleaned the vent and attached the fixed pipe from the dryer to the vent.

Thank you for the feedback and the business! We call when on the way and sometimes we can be there before the scheduled time and sometimes a prior appointment takes longer or we get caught in traffic and so we let you know if we are running a little late. We specialize in dryer vents so we can we have a lot of things we can do and advice on making the dryer vent line run less restricted and more efficient for drying clothes. Thanks again! Rick

Thank you for the business and your feedback. I am sorry a connection came loose but we warranty our work for 90 days and sometimes. Normally, these types of things don't happen because all the technicians are experienced and do this every day so they do a great job. Best regards, Rick

After we had our dryer heating element burn out, the dryer repair technician told us that our vent was completely blocked and we shouldn't use it until that is cleared out. He recommended Dryer Vent Wizard. We called them and scheduled an appointment for the following Saturday between 8:30 and 9:30am. At 10:00am on the day scheduled, no one had showed up so we called to find out when we should expect them. Rick called us back and apparently gave the technician the wrong schedule, so he finally arrived around 11am. After inspecting the vent, he went to work and found that we did, in fact, have a significant amount of lint build up. He also advised that we should change the flexible tube we had running from the dryer to the wall vent should be replaced by a rigid steel tube. They will install one for $89, but I chose to do that myself and save about $80. He cleared the vent and everything has been working properly since. Very helpful, very professional. At $240 for about 20 minutes work, the price seemed a bit steep. $90 to install a vent tube also seems pretty steep. Despite the frustrating experience with the scheduling issue, I would consider using them again but will probably price shop a little next time.
Description of Work: Cleaned out our dryer vent pipe from the wall to the outside vent.

Thanks for your business and feedback. I apologize for the scheduling mistake. Normally, that does not happen. I happened to give the tech the schedule for the next Saturday by mistake. Your line was completely blocked and even though it may not seem like much time, we have the experience and tools to unblock them. Sometimes they take longer to unclog and we never know until we work on them. For the connection behind the dryer, it can sometimes be a pain to install and the room can be tight. It makes a big improvement in air flow to have the correct type of material and connection behind the dryer. If it is foil or plastic, it can be crushed and restrict air flow. Thank you for understanding that we made a mistake and still giving us your business. Best regards, Rick

Went fine, very professional
Description of Work: Dryer vent installed on side of house about Twelve feet up. The vent was clogged as a result of a birds nest having been built in front of the clogged up area, The vet had to be replace and the rooter line had to be run through the vent hose to unclog the line.

Thank you for your business and comments. Birds can be a big problem in the spring and early summer. They like to get into the higher vents to nest. Cleaning them is a messy procedure. We also have a bird resistant cover to help keep them from coming back. Best regards, Rick

Thank you for using our services! Many times when we go to a home we find some issues or code violations with the venting and we bring it to the home owner's attention. Especially, plastic and foil lines are fire hazards so we make mention of it and can make it safer if the homeowner desires. But we also see many homes with safe venting already in place and all they need is to have a regular cleaning. Thanks again for your business! Rick

It went very well. I have used them before and they are a very good company. They guy that came cleaned up everything, in fact he even swept around my dryer. I have not picked up some dirt that I have not swept so he swept it up and picked it up and everything. He was very professional and very nice. He did above and beyond. He was a very nice guy. It was a good price.

Thank your for your comments and purchase. Dryer manufacturers recommend cleaning every year but that depends on the amount and quantity of laundry and the length of the dryer vent run. So when the dryer starts taking longer to dry clothes again, please call for a reclean in the future. Much appreciated! Rick

James was right on time and had a positive attitude. He wore shoe covers while walking inside the house without being asked to do so. He was professional and got right to work inspecting the dryer's lint trap and inspecting the outside dryer vent (which was last inspected and cleaned by the same company in 2009). James explained several options I had when I inquired about replacing the current dryer vent cover which was keeping birds out but also trapping lint from the dryer to the point where the vent was blocked and becoming a fire hazard. James clearly explained how he would replace the old vent with a more modern and maintenance free one. Prior to performing the vent cleaning and vent removal/install, he wrote out the entire cost and explained it to me so I knew exactly what I was paying before he started the work which I greatly appreciated. James was professional throughout my interactions with him and was never pushy or came across as a salesman. I found everything with James and the company to be satisfactory except for the price for the vent cleaning and service call. While James reviewed every fee with me prior to starting his work, Dryer Vent Wizard does not mention the $49 service call fee in any of its advertisements nor was it explained to me by the woman who told me the cost of the vent cleaning when she scheduled my appointment. While I feel that James did a great job and understand a business like this has to be able to afford the equipment and pay its employees well, $49 just to show up in my driveway and $179 for a second story vent cleaning seems a bit excessive. While a ladder was involved, the time it took just to inspect and clean out the vent was relatively straight forward and very quick (about 10-15 minutes at the most). While I was disappointed about the cost, especially the steep service charge, I would still recommend them and anticipate using their services again in the future.
Description of Work: Inspected the dryer's lint trap and outside second story dryer vent. Cleaned out dryer vent line and installed a new dryer vent cover that was designed to prevent dryer lint build up (unlike the current one I had on which would trap the lint and eventually block the air from getting through) and birds from nesting inside the pipe.

Hello [member name removed], Thank you for your feedback and business. I am glad you are happy with our services! Second floor laundries do cost more since we are on a ladder when we are doing the cleaning, removing bird's nests, replacing the cover, etc. I am sorry you feel misled about the service fee. However, it is common practice to charge this kind of fee in the service industry. For example, appliance repairmen typically charge even more than what we do for a service fee. We usually let the technicians go over our estimates when they are at the home. Still, I will refund your service fee due to your feedback.

Thank you for your business and feedback. We measure the airflow at the vent cover before we start and also when we are finished so that we know that we did improve things. If the air flow is not acceptable after the initial readings, we look for potential blockages and reclean until it is improved. In most cases, the air flow doubles from our initial readings. This means less restriction in the line so the dryer will work more efficiently and will use less energy as well. Best regards, Rick

Thank you for your business and comments. Any buildup of lint inside the dryer or in the dryer vent line can restrict air flow and make the dryer work harder and less efficiently to dry clothes. When every thing is cleaned, air flow is improved and drying times are reduced, reducing dryer times and using less energy to dry the clothes. Again, thanks! Rick

Update: I received a call today based on this review. They were extremely apologetic and explained there must have been an issue with the calendar. They offered to come out today and perform the service free of charge. The technician was at my house 20 minutes later and was extremely pleasant and professional. I am very pleased. I understand that mistakes do happen and it says a lot about the integrity of the company that they performed the service free of charge.
