If you're like most people, dryer vent cleaning probably isn’t something you think about often—until your dryer starts taking forever to dry clothes or you notice a burning smell that sets off alarms (literally or figuratively). At Cedar Rapids Dryer Vent Cleaning, we believe in making this overlooked task simple, safe, and stress-free for homeowners and businesses across our city.
We're not a general handyman service. We’re specialists. Our team is dedicated exclusively to dryer vent cleaning, repair, and installation, and we’ve built a reputation in Cedar Rapids for being friendly, efficient, and thorough.
So, who are we? We’re your local solution to lint clogs, fire risks, and poorly performing dryers. Let’s dive into what makes us different.
Why Dryer Vent Cleaning Matters
Dryers create a lot of lint, and only some of it gets trapped in the lint screen. The rest escapes into the vent system, where it builds up over time. If left uncleaned, that lint can reduce airflow, make your dryer work harder, increase your energy bill, and even spark a fire.
In fact, the U.S. Fire Administration reports that nearly 3,000 house fires each year are caused by clothes dryers, and the leading cause is failure to clean them.
At Cedar Rapids Dryer Vent Cleaning, our mission is to protect homes, improve dryer efficiency, and give you peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I get my dryer vent cleaned?
Once a year is ideal for most households. If you have a big family, pets, or use your dryer often, every six to nine months is even better.
Is it really that dangerous to leave it uncleaned?
Yes. Lint is highly flammable, and when airflow is restricted, heat can build up quickly. Most dryer fires are preventable with regular maintenance.
Can you clean vents that go through the roof?
Absolutely. Roof vents are no problem — we have the tools and safety equipment to clean them completely.
What if I think there are animals in my vent?
We offer humane removal of birds, rodents, and other animals, followed by cleaning and securing your vent to prevent re-entry.
Do you work with commercial buildings or apartment complexes?
Yes, and we offer volume discounts for properties with multiple units. Regular maintenance plans are available, too.
How long does a cleaning appointment take?
Typically 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the layout and condition of your system.
