If you’ve tried to find dryer vent cleaning prices online, you’ve probably hit a wall of vague answers. ‘It depends.’ ‘Call for a quote.’ ‘Prices vary by location.’ None of that helps you figure out what to expect before you book.
So here’s the actual answer: professional dryer vent cleaning at Lint Dragon costs $119 for a standard service or $199 for an advanced clean. This post breaks down what each includes, what can affect the final price, and how to figure out which option makes sense for your home.
We offer two cleaning tiers. Most homes are well served by the standard option. The advanced service is worth considering for homes with longer vent runs, roof-vented systems, or any situation where you want more diagnostic detail.
This is a complete cleaning of your dryer vent system from the back of the dryer to the exterior termination point, whether that’s a wall vent or a roof vent. It includes:
This is the right starting point for most homeowners doing routine maintenance or cleaning for the first time.
The advanced service includes everything in the standard clean, plus deeper diagnostics:
The advanced service makes the most sense for homes with longer or harder-to-access vent systems, recurring dryer issues, or anyone who wants documented before-and-after airflow data. If you’re not sure which vent type you have, the roof vents vs. wall vents post explains the difference and why it matters.
What’s Included at Each Tier
| What’s Included | Standard $119 | Advanced $199 |
|---|---|---|
| Full vent cleaning (dryer to exit point) | Yes | Yes |
| Lint cavity cleanout behind lint trap | Yes | Yes |
| Dryer moved and reconnected (if accessible) | Yes | Yes |
| Basic airflow check | Yes | Yes |

The prices above cover the cleaning service itself. A few things can add to the total depending on your specific situation.
If your transition hose (the flexible connector between the dryer and the wall) is damaged, crushed, or the wrong type, replacing it during the same visit is the most convenient option. We carry both hose types on every truck:
Hose replacement is not always needed, but if we find a problem during the visit, you won’t have to schedule a second appointment.
We carry a few practical add-ons if you want them during the visit: dryer balls, a lint trap cleaning kit, washer hoses, and other laundry room basics. These are optional and will never be pushed on you. We mention them when they’re genuinely relevant.
A small trip charge of $30 to $50 may apply if your address falls outside our standard service coverage. If this applies to you, it will appear automatically during online booking before you confirm anything. No surprises at the door.
| Transparency is part of how we workWe don’t believe in ‘call for a quote’ pricing. The base costs are straightforward, any add-ons are your choice, and the trip charge shows up during booking if it applies. What you see is what you pay. |
Here’s a simple way to think about it.
If you’re on the fence about whether cleaning is necessary, there are two good starting points. Our post on whether dryer vent cleaning is really worth it walks through the practical case for routine service. And if you want to check the actual condition of your vent before committing to a cleaning, our dryer vent inspection service is $85 and can be applied toward a cleaning if one turns out to be needed.
You can schedule your service online and see exact pricing for your address before you confirm. If you have questions about which service makes sense for your home, give us a call or send a message. We’re straightforward about what you need and what you don’t.
