What it costs
The same prices as everywhere we work: dryer vent cleaning is $199, normally $298, with a year of Comfort+ membership included, or $199 added to an air duct cleaning.
Dryer vent cleaning, a year of Comfort+ membership included
$199, normally $298
Dryer vent cleaning, added to an air duct cleaning
$199
The price covers the whole dryer vent line, from the back of the dryer to the hood outside, with camera photos of what we find, a dated invoice, and before and after photos of your line when we can get a clear shot. Anything past the cleaning, like a new hose or a guard on the hood, you get the price first.
With Comfort+ membership, $199 a year covers the dryer vent cleaning every year, plus a water heater flush with a sewer camera inspection, a heating maintenance visit and a cooling maintenance visit, and we tell you when each one is due.
What’s different in Woodbridge
More than four in ten Lake Ridge homes are townhouses, close to three in ten across all of Woodbridge, and six in ten Lake Ridge homes went up in the 1980s and 90s. A townhouse of that era often puts the laundry on a lower or middle floor, so the dryer vent has to thread between floor joists or turn up inside a wall to reach the back of the house. Every bend is a place lint stops, and none of them shows from the laundry room.
Dale City is the other end of it. About two thirds of its homes are single-family, built around 1983 at the median, and the laundry usually sits on the lower level with a short run out the side or back. A short line packs more slowly. In a house like that the trouble is more often the hose behind the dryer, flattened when the machine got pushed back against the wall, or foil that should have been swapped for metal years ago.
In the Woodbridge CDP, around Route 1, about three in ten homes are in condo and apartment buildings, and close to half are rented. In a condo building the dryer vent may run through shared walls to the roof, and your association documents say whether that line is yours. In a rental the dryer vent cleaning often falls to the landlord, and a dated invoice from the visit is the record to keep with the lease.
Prince William County Fire and Rescue names failure to clean as the leading cause of dryer fires, about three in ten of them, and says fall and winter are the prime season, with January the peak month. So fall, before the blankets and sweatshirts start going through, is a sensible time to get the dryer vent cleaning on the calendar.
Neighborhood by neighborhood
Census figures for each place, and what that usually means for the dryer vent. Median year built and heat count owner-occupied homes only.
| Place | Median home built | Most homes are | Heated with | What the dryer vent usually does |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dale City | 1983 | single-family houses, about 7 in 10 | gas, about 7 in 10 | 1980s and 90s houses: dryer vents through a wall or a ceiling, often never cleaned end to end. |
| Lake Ridge | 1985 | townhouses, about 4 in 10 | electricity, about 5 in 10 | Townhouse streets: long dryer vent runs, often to the roof or the back wall. |
| Woodbridge | 1976 | single-family houses, about 4 in 10 | gas, about 5 in 10 | Older houses: shorter dryer vent runs, and foil or plastic hose behind the dryer that should be metal. |
| Leesylvania | 2006 | single-family houses, about 4 in 10 | gas, about 6 in 10 | Newer houses: upstairs laundry rooms and long dryer vent runs through the ceiling. |
| Potomac Mills | 1988 | single-family houses, about 6 in 10 | electricity, about 7 in 10 | 1980s and 90s houses: dryer vents through a wall or a ceiling, often never cleaned end to end. |

When it’s due
Prince William County Fire and Rescue says to keep snow cleared away from the dryer vent outside during and after a storm. If the flap still won’t open once the snow is gone, lint is holding it shut, and the line behind it is due for a dryer vent cleaning.
The first thing most people notice. When the dryer vent is packed, the damp air has nowhere to go, so the clothes stay wet and the dryer runs hot.
Fire departments around Northern Virginia say once a year, and sooner if clothes start taking longer to dry. If you can’t remember the last dryer vent cleaning, it’s due.
The dryer vent, locally
Prince William County Fire and Rescue says to clean the lint out of the dryer vent pipe once a year, to check the venting behind the dryer for damage or restriction, and to have the dryer inspected if clothes take longer than normal to dry or come out hotter than usual. Source.

Choosing who cleans it
Questions to ask anybody who quotes you, us included.
When the line runs above a ceiling or up inside a wall, the ends are easy and the middle is the job. Ask how they’ll reach the hidden stretch, and whether the camera photos will show it.
Brushing the first few feet from the laundry room isn’t a dryer vent cleaning. Ask whether they clean from the back of the dryer to the hood outside, and how they get the lint out of the house instead of pushing it further down.
Camera photos of the inside of your dryer vent line are how you know it needed cleaning, and before and after photos are how you know the job was done. Ask to see them, and for a dated invoice if your HOA wants proof.

I had Swiftpro clean my dryer vent from point to point as well another vent that was blocked with an old bird nest. Friendly customer support. Prompt tech. Highly recommend.

Questions
Yes, and along Route 1 too. They all carry a Woodbridge mailing address, and it’s the same visit and the same price in every one. If your hood is high on the back of a townhouse, say how high when you book.
Not the dryer vent cleaning. Prince William County Fire and Rescue adds one step for gas dryers: have a professional inspect the gas line and the connection for leaks. Mention it when you book.
Often. Prince William County Fire and Rescue says that when clothes take longer than normal to dry, or come out hotter than usual, it’s time to have the dryer looked at. A packed dryer vent line is one of the usual causes, and the camera photos show whether yours is.
