Ann at Ventmasters was very helpful in finding a time that worked for us. Vance and Tim were professional, thorough and very helpful. They arrived on time and although they did not wear covers over their shoes they did clean up carefully after their work. Tim got started on snaking the duct from the outside while Vance assessed the dryer. He immediately suggested that a crimped / compressed connection between the dryer and the wall was probably the main problem as it would result in reduced air velocity in the vent. They snaked the duct from the outside and blew air into the duct from the inside to dislodge lint and removed a considerable amount. After clearing the duct, Vance suggested a number of Do It Yourself options for me to rework the dryer connection and the dryer's position to improve air flow as it was apparent that the builder had had some challenges making things fit. He also offered to cut a small opening in the wall and rework the connection right then if we wanted. We opted to have him make the changes and within 15 minutes (and with $5 of materials) he had made an small opening in the wall, removed the existing elbow in the duct and replaced it with a flexible hose connection. This meant that the connection between the dryer and the hard duct had more space and wasn't as compressed. Before leaving, Vance cleared up all of the dust from making the opening in the wall and Tim swept up the lint that they had blown out of the duct. Vance also assessed the air flow from the vent and suggested running the dryer to help remove moisture from the line. We would definitely use Ventmasters in the future.

They did a great job. They also removed my old vent connector and added a new one as the old one was leaking too much they said. I was very happy with their service and professionalism.

The company was inflexible on the timing and rude to customers. Our condo complex hired the company to perform the dryer vent cleaning. We were given a window of 8 hours on a Saturday. I understand there're other units to be worked on, but it's still ridiculous. Who would be expected to stay at home for the whole day on a nice weekend in Seattle, just to wait for 15 minutes of cleaning? To be fair, we did get a written notice from the company in advance. My unit # is low so work is usually performed towards the beginning if any contractor work needs to be performed. On the cleaning day, I waited for about half of the day and didn't see the service coming. Apparently the company decided to work from the highest unit # first. This was also not communicated to us. Anyway, I had to be away for a few hours so I tracked it down and found the unit the service was at. The person who was performing the cleaning saw me yet when I tried to talk to him during the cleaning break he shot me down as he's not finished with the unit. So I waited until he was done at the unit and kindly asked if my unit will be serviced by the time I was leaving, and if it's possible to have my unit to be serviced first as I'll be gone. He asked in a sarcastic tone if I've read the notice and said the more time I spent talking to him the more delayed he'd be. I may not be the client he talked to when negotiated the contract, but as a condo unit owner who's receiving the service I expect to be treated as a customer. I see this company has good reviews from the other customers but definitely think twice before you decide to hire them!

Response from VentMasters LLC
It is unfortunate that this customer is portraying our company and service so negatively. As you can see from previous reviews, we pride ourselves on customer service and response. The schedule for the customer’s property was set up between VentMasters and the property management company working with the Condominium Association. Very specific notices were posted and sent to the property residents. People were informed which day we would be there, which buildings were to be done, and in what order they were to be completed. Residents were informed by the property manager of the options they might have on that day and to contact him if they needed to make alternative plans for access. Our technicians needed to clean dryer vents for over 50 units on the day referred to by the customer. This is something we can do, but only if we do so in an orderly manner—moving from building to building and unit to unit. This is the only way to set up the logistics since the Association is looking for volume discounts on our service; individual appointments for 50 units would cost significantly more than the volume rate available during these projects. Since we are providing this service for the entire community, our primary obligation is to follow the schedule and satisfy all of the residents who have read their notices and are expecting to give us access to their units. Unfortunately, some people will find us after the work is started and make “special” requests or demand to know when we will be at their unit. They can tend to become upset, and often spend a lot of time trying to convince our technicians to change the work order or give accurate times of arrival. We cannot change the posted order, and specific times are impossible to predict because it depends on the level of participation by the residents and difficulty of the work we encounter. It is possible that the technician spoken to by this customer may have been terse or short. If so, we apologize. But it could also be that the customer did not really want to hear the answer given and instead was expecting us either to drop everything to clean his vent or give him a precise time of arrival. Neither option was possible as we had to comply with the wishes and direction of the Association. It is not fair for someone to give VentMasters a highly unfavorable rating because we were not able to meet his individual and hence unreasonable expectation. We did comply with the instructions given by the Association, and in that respect we did the work in the manner expected of us. Had the customer used Angie’s List to select our service and scheduled an individual appointment with VentMasters for another day and time and not received an expected level of performance, it would be fair to rate us according to that circumstance. I respectfully request that this rating be removed as it is not appropriate based on the reasons stated.

The technician Nathaniel showed up exactly on time and was polite, friendly, and professional. He evaluated the dryer vent and answered a few questions I had as well, and then began cleaning. He cleaned the vent in the dryer, the duct, and the exterior housing for the dryer. He was very quick, efficient, and thorough, and the invoice he left contained a lot of helpful detail about condition, accumulation, airflow, and a recommended cleaning schedule. Overall the service cost less than originally estimated over the phone, likely because it turned out to be a quick job. I appreciate that level of honesty and service in a company and I'd definitely hire them again.

When I was trying to set up a time for them to come out they were great about squeezing me in at the end of the month. We were moving into a new house and we needed to have the maintenance done on a certain day. The technician came out at exactly the right time. I even asked him to do a couple extra things and he did even though it wasn't part of the original request. The office staff was always really nice and prompt to call back. The technician did a great job and cleaned up everything when he left. I certainly would use them again!!

The work was done quickly and smoothly (20 minutes). They arrived in the window of time given and the technicians were courteous. Several days after the visit, I noticed that a mechanical problem with my lint trap. I called Lois at VentMasters and she arranged for someone to come out that same day and look at problem. It was fixed that afternoon. I appreciate their professionalism.

VentMasters did a great job cleaning our dryer vent. Our laundry room is on the second floor of the home, and the dryer vents to the roof. The service technician checked the hose connection inside, but was unable to access it to clean from that point (not surprising since the room is tiny) so he went up on the roof and snaked the vent from that direction. There was a little bit of lint dust residue left on the roof/sidewalk following cleanup, but it disappeared quickly. This visit was actually the second time VentMasters had serviced our dryer vent (first was about 3 years prior) and we were very pleased with the service both times.

I contacted VentMasters approximately a week and a half before I needed the work done and requested a specific date, which they were happy to accommodate. On the day of service, they arrived exactly on time. The gentleman was courteous, clean and professional. He completed the work in under an hour and left everything cleaner than he found it. Highly recommended!

While the overall experience is very highly rated, the turnaround time could be much improved and the company would benefit monetarily from this suggestion: Vance is extremely friendly and loves to chit-chat. However, the actual work took approximately 5 minutes per dryer (i.e., a half hour) but they were on site for 1-3/4 hours. A little less chatter and they could have moved on to the next job in much less time. Vance appears to do his job well and it's nice that he's friendly; please understand that this suggestion is only intended to be constructive for all.
Description of Work: We are a 6-unit condominium building, with dryers in each unit and 5 vents on the roof and 1 on the side of the building. Vance and Tim arrived on time and worked well as a team (V in the units with T on the roof, connected by some sort of communication device.) As you can see from our ratings, we were very pleased with the overall experience. We especially appreciated V pointing out that an important plate was missing on the back of one of the dryers, possibly creating a fire/danger hazard.

I had noticed that my dryer was drying the way it use to, so I called Ventmasters to have the vent cleaned out. The ducting was completely blocked with soaking wet lint. I have a long vent run (25-30 feet) and they cleaned to complete line. The dryer is now workng great. I will use Ventmasters again!

Description of Work: The owner (can't remember his name) was very nice, well-informed on all things related to dryer vents. He came on time, cleaned up the dryer hose and went outside to check on the outdoor vent. He made sure no mess was left behind. In fact, I ended up finding loose change and a couple of missing items :). He charged pretty close to the estimate given on the phone.

original work was to add a new line replacing an old vinyl vent to a new dryer. While Clarence wasn't able to take the first job because of schedule conflicts, I was able to contact him later when installing new bathroom fan venting. While his company couldn't do the electrical hookups and installing of the ceiling fans - he did provide a lot of advice and assistance to get them in place, and setup the new venting quickly with no fuss.

Vince arrived on time and went right to work. One thing I was really glad about: he did not seem to be a smoker! So many technicians arrive reeking of cigarette smoke! I hate that! Thank goodness I didn't have to deal with that problem!
Description of Work: The technician (Vince) cleaned our dryer vent system, both inside and out. He did the outside work from up on the roof where our dryer (second floor) vents to the outside. He swept off the roof after he finished up there, and he replaced some accordion vent tubing inside the house, He was punctual, very efficient, and thorough. Polite and clean, he left things in a better state than they were before he came. My husband and I were very pleased with the work done.

Originally they were here to give us an estimate on possibly replacing a dryer vent that had a major blockage and did not appear up to code. They checked it out, cleaned the vent and even thought the vent was not up to current code, it was acceptable. Their effort saved the day for us, both with enabling us to dry clothes, but saved us money.
Description of Work: Cleaned out the dryer vent in the home we just rented. It was really packed in there - a real fire hazard. Every thing worked fine afterwards.
