A typical dryer vent cleaning in Wrightsville Beach takes 45 to 90 minutes from arrival to departure.

Q: How do I clean my dryer vent from the outside?

Disconnect power, remove the exterior vent cover, and use a rotary brush kit attached to a drill. Professionals use rotating whip heads and a commercial negative air vacuum to pull every inch of the line.
