We frequently get calls from homeowners in Burlington, Hamilton, Oakville, Stoney Creek, Grimsby, Beamsville, Milton, Ancaster, and St. Catharines who attempted to clean their own dryer vent — only to get the cleaning brush stuck inside the ductwork.

If you live in Welland and your dryer is taking forever to dry your laundry, there is a good chance your dryer vent is clogged. A blocked dryer vent creates a fire hazard, wastes energy, and puts unnecessary strain on your dryer. The tricky part is that many vents in Welland homes exit through the roof, and not every company is trained or equipped to clean them properly.
