The cost of cleaning your vent will depend on its location, distance, accessibility, materials if any are needed and how clogged your vent is. Bends/turns in the vent can slow the process down. With rough length of vent and a few pictures of the dryer vent, we can provide you with a rough cost over the phone to have your vent cleaned. Unfortunately at this time, we do not clean dryer vents that are on roofs or more than sixteen feet from ground level.
