Would recommend this company to anyone. From our first contact with Brenda on the phone to the service person, Neil, this company is professional and equiped to handle difficult situations. Our dryer vent is long and under the first level floor over a finished basement ceiling - seeing that the vent was extremely loose (to the point of possible future fire hazard) the service person first fixed and secured the vent (in an extremely tight working area) without much cosmetic damage to the basement ceiling, which he repaired before he left. We were very pleased.
Description of Work: Cleaned dryer vent, secured dryer vent and replaced outside vent cover.

Prompt, professional. Gave me tips to keep it clean. My "fabric" gasket was coming off and he put it back on with some sealant and its been good to go ever since. Also gave me tips on keeping my front loader washer from smelling musty.

Appreciated the call to let me know he was running behind - vent hasnt been cleaned in 10 years but wasn't too bad considering - the price was great for angie's "big deal" but would have been pricey without it - replaced vent as one of the flaps was broken - new vent will also keep birds from getting in to nest - friendly and professional service - took the time to clean up the lint that had falled into the grass.

We used Dryer Vent Wizard a few years ago and decided it was time to utilize their services once again. The technician was a little late but he did a good job. We also have a better idea of how often we should have the dryer vents cleaned. We plan to continue to use this company in the future and recommend them highly.

I used Dryer Vent Wizard of Greater Cincinnati two, two and a half years ago. Again my husband was home for that so I really don't know, I know that the way that coupon worked is was a certain amount towards what we did and then to pay a little bit extra for what we needed to have done. That was okay. We probably need to call them back to do it again. But the work is fine.
Description of Work: Dryer Vent Wizard of Greater Cincinnati, they cleaned out the dryer vent and they also re-ran some vent pipe or something like that. I don't know the technical term.

They were excellent. They were punctual and they cleaned up after their work. The guy was very personable. I thought the price was right. He also said that if you find your drying isn't working, they come back and check to see if they missed anything. He took his time and didn't hurry.

We recently bought a new washer and dryer and needed a dryer vent installed in our basement. I called and talked to Ed, was told it would cost less than $200. So I set up an appointment and Doug showed up on time and got his equipment ready. After he looked at the basement, he gave us a quote of $419, certainly a lot more than what I was told on the phone but we needed the dryer vent installed, so I was okay with this. Took maybe an hour to complete the job and looks great. We haven't purchased the pedestals yet for the washer and dryer but Doug said that when we do, give him a call and he'll come out and adjust the dryer hose to make sure it's correct with the height of the dryer.

Dryer Vent Wizard of Greater Cincinnati came out last month to do work for me. It was well over $300 but it was worth it. We found out that the dryer was actually had a reduced amount of air flowing through it because of the clogged airline. So we are going to have buy a new dryer because it should be in the 20s, upper 20s and mine was less than 19. So it's taking longer for it to dry, but it's not clogged up anymore. The dryer is fairly old so we are looking to get a new dryer. The technician was very, very good, explained everything and the number of dryer fires are in the US these days, a lot of dryer fires contribute to house fires and burning down. It was something that I was concerned about, it was unbelievable what he got out of that dryer vent once he blew it clean and then fixed the dryer so we had the proper piping up. It should not be a flexible pipe, it needs to be a solid pipe. Nobody told me we didn't have the proper one until he got there. We were having problems with the dryer not drying in the proper period of time.
Description of Work: Dryer Vent Wizard of Greater Cincinnati did work for us. We had part of the pipe, it was not the proper pipe and I put it up and I didn't realize that I was putting the proper pipe up that many years ago. And the vent outside was in bad shape. They came and fixed everything.

The gentleman was polite... however, a simple appointment to clean turned into a $750.00 estimate to replace the whole system and a refusal to clean. Employed the fire scare tactics, etc. It feels like very much a scam. Apparently the code was changed back in 1998 and that is not made clear until arrival. will clean it my self.

Response from Dryer Vent Wizard of Greater Cincinnati
As the owner of Dryer Vent Wizard we do occassionally run into people who dont really want to be educated and really dont want to spend any $$....They just want a cheap solution. two weeks ago we ran into a condo community that was not vented properly and 3 days ago 4 units were damaged by one of the improperly vented dryers. Even though the community manager intended to have the vents fixed - they hadnt got around to it yet and thus the fire. Since we are Certified Dryer Exhaust Technicians we cannot just "get you by" to save money with a fire hazard on your hands....we are required to tell you the facts and if you dont want to follow our recommendations and the current building code...then we dont do the work. There are too many people who will just take your money and not present the facts or do the work correctly - but we offer a professional approach according to the current code and insure that your residence is safe and your dryer works efficiently-at a fair price. When we make appts- we tell the caller that we will come and do an assessment of your venting situation and give you a proposal stating what needs to be done and what it will cost....then the customer has to sign off on it before we do anything....never twisting arms or forcing the issue....this way the safety issue and responsibility for caring for your own family and property rests with the homeowner....Most folks dont realize that the amount of damage from dryer fires has grown from $75million in 2006 to $209 million currently.....We can't take the chance of leaving the customer in a hazardous situation for a few bucks.....

Doug, the technician from Dryer Vent Wizard, called to let me know that he was running a little late because the last job had taken longer than he anticipated. This was no problem at all and I appreciated the fact that he let me know he was running a little late. Doug was friendly, helpful and very professional. He knew exactly what he was doing. I had wanted Dryer Vent Wizard to clean the dry vent and that's exactly what Dean did. He inspected where the vent had been installed and discovered the dryer vent line needed to be replaced. Doug stated it would take about an hour. The work was completed and the mess was cleaned up by Dean.
Description of Work: Cleaned the dryer vent. Replaced a section of the dryer vent line.

Description of Work: MThe service Tech was extremely knowledgeable, professional and a good communicator. He replaced the outside flapper on my condo as well as cleaning the dryer duct that was about 15' in length. i also I paid for the service for my daughters condo as well.

I suggested arrival after 2 PM. Arrived 2:15 PM. Dryer exhaust/lint trap cleaning and vent replacement went quickly. Drilling hole in foundation wall was a bear and took a big chunk of time(of course.) Clean up was excellent. Service provider recommended running dryer on high heat for 1/2 hour to seal the tape on the vent joints. I did that as he was leaving. No more lint on car in the garage. No more leaving garage door open during dryer run time.
Description of Work: First visit evaluation determined a concrete drill needed. second visit scheduled. Dryer lint tray cavity and exhaust cleaning as per coupon($99?), plastic vent hose (to garage) removed, hole drilled in home foundation wall, installed new dryer vent line(14 ft.), installed exterior vent cover with bird guard.

Overall, I was very pleased with the service and would use them again.
Description of Work: Doug arrived exactly on time. He checked the vent pipe leading from the dryer, deterrmined it was not within code, and replaced it. He then checked the air flow and air temp at the outside vent cover. Both were lower than they should be, so he attached a blower inside and blew a great deal of lint out of the duct. While the blower was on, he also ran a brush the entire length of the duct, dislodging more lint. When he finished those functions, he again checked the air flow and temp at the outside vent and they were up to where they should be. Doug was very friendly and informative all through his visit, explaining each task as he went along.

I called Dryer Vent Wizard to make sure appointments were available before I bought the $150 Big Deal. I scheduled without a problem. The technician came out and inspected the dryer and the venting system and then cleaned it out, measuring air flow before and after to demonstrate the effect of the cleaning. He also suggested a new transition -- the conduit between the dryer and the pipe to outside -- be installed, saying the one we had was made of flammable materials. My husband and I decided to have him install a new transition for an additional $69. The technician also charged $49 for the diagnostic inspection in addition to the $151 for the vent cleaning -- $150 of which I had already paid through my purchase of the Big Deal. I paid in full. After the technician left, I looked again at the Big Deal and found wording that said it was supposed to cover inspection and cleaning. I immediately called Ed, the owner, and he agreed that I should not have been charged the $49. He promised to return my check. He did. I wrote a new check for $70 (to pay for the new transition and the $1 not covered by the Big Deal, which is just weird but I wasn't going to argue about that). The technician was polite and professional. My dryer has been drying clothes faster. And I hope the transition is now safer.

John was on time (early, he called to see if that was ok). I have had issues with the venting from our dryer into the wall for years - I don't think it was done correctly from the time the house was built. The space is so small that we've only been able to patch it up ourselves, but it was beyond our abilities and venting not only into the laundry room but I suspect into the wall. John assessed the situation and measured the air output (which was under the minimum) and told me how he could fix it and gave me what I considered a fair price. He had to replace a section of the vent in the wall as well as replace the venting from the dryer to the wall. He also cleaned the duct. He was done with it all in under 2 hours and when he re-measured the air output had jumped up considerably. The whole thing looks more solid and I am confident that it is now safe. For me, it was well worth the price (the cleaning itself was $117 after coupon but it is a longer line, I believe. The rest was for the repair work.) He left everything neat and ready to use. I recommend this company 100%.

It went great. The technician was very informative and made sure my dryer was operating safely. I had piece of mind when the work was done and he said there should not be an issue in the future.
Description of Work: The dryer was pulled out from the wall and an airflow test was performed. The vents were cleaned to check for blockage. I went outside with the technician to check on airflow outside.
