I was trying to dry my clothes, but my dryer just would not work. I believed that the heat trip was being activated, so I tried cleaning the vent myself. Well, I couldn’t get deep enough, so I had to call some professionals. They came as soon as they could, and cleaned out my dryer vent. Turned out that there was TONS of like solid dust chunks in there that was just completely blocking airflow. After that, my dryer worked fine. …

Some time later they also installed a water filter under my sink so that I don’t have to drink the chlorine filled pool water the city gives us anymore. I highly recommend the swiftest of the pros!

The dryer vent cleaning reviews that say the most
How we picked these: the most specific reviews first, the ones that name the problem, how it turned out and how they were treated. Then the newest, spread across towns.
Aaron and Marshall were absolutely fantastic cleaning my dryer vent! They were professional, thorough, friendly, and clearly took pride in their work. They did an excellent job making sure the vent was completely cleaned and everything was left in great condition.
I was extremely impressed with their attention to detail and how efficiently they worked. It’s clear they genuinely care about providing great service and making sure the customer is satisfied. I highly recommend Aaron and Marshall. Five stars all around!
Aaron is great ! He explained to me about how they clean the dryer vent, he replaced my old one with a flex type vent duct, he showed me the camera he used to see into the dryer vent. Very professional answered all my questions . Definitely 10 out of 10.
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.
The service technician, Aaron, was outstanding. He was punctual, courteous, friendly, knowledgeable and very thorough. He listened to our concerns carefully and addressed them effectively. He went out of his way to make sure we were satisfied with all aspects of the HVAC duct and dryer vent cleaning service. He thoroughly cleaned both return vents and all supply registers. He also replaced our HVAC ceiling return vent cover and our dryer vent hose. He documented all of his work with photos. …

Aaron displayed both a strong and personable customer satisfaction attitude and provided an overall excellent service experience. He treated our home with great care and working with him and the company was very easy. Based on this experience, we highly recommend SwiftPro HVAC and specifically Aaron as your go to service technician.
Aaron and Saul did a great job cleaning out the dryer duct, with a thorough plumbing inspection and good advice on filter selection on my Hvac systen. Thank you guys
My wife and I asked SwiftPro to come out for a dryer vent cleaning. They gave us a discounted annual package that included inspections and future discounts (and annual dryer vent cleaning) all at a cost lower than the national and local average just for a dryer vent cleaning. Technicians Aaron and Reuben arrived on time, were EXTRAORDINARILY informative, friendly, and courteous. They wrapped up the vent cleaning quickly and handled a full inspection of the HVAC. They then did a deep clean of the coils. …

All in all, it was a little over 2 hours.
We’re very happy with the service and experience and totally recommend!!!
Called in the morning and made an appt for the same day but the system didn't finalize the appt, so was left hanging. Hannah from Customer Experience promptly contacted me and offered to 1) send a technician out ASAP; and 2) lower the service costs for my troubles. That's real CUSTOMER SERVICE! The tech team led by Aaron were consummate pros and gentlemen to boot. Faith in humanity RESTORED.
Aaron was excellent!! He was polite and went above and beyond. I am very impressed with SwiftPro. I will be using you again and refer others to your company that provides quality customer service.
I found SwiftPro through Yelp project. Their response time is super fast and the scheduling process is so easy. They sent a great technician Aaron to fix my dryer vent leak the next day, I’m very glad that they can take care of my issue so quickly! Aaron is very professional, he identified the issue very quickly. I highly recommend identifying the height of your outside vents to make sure they come prepared with the right equipment and ladders. Luckily, Aaron was able to bring the proper ladder as our vents are very high up. …

I’m so happy with their efficiency and timely service! I highly recommend SwiftPro!
I had a great experience with Aaron and Luke for my duct and dryer vent cleaning. They were very professional, friendly, and punctual. After the inspection, they clearly explained the work needed and provided the price upfront before starting. I especially appreciated their dedication—they even came back with a larger ladder to finish the duct cleaning properly. Their attention to detail and customer service really stood out. I would definitely recommend Aaron and Luke to anyone in need of duct or dryer vent cleaning!
Jevon was very professional, courteous and respectful. He explained everything really well from the quote and dryer vent work details to the HVAC services. Absolutely a stellar representative of your company!
Aaron, the technician, was also an outstanding professional who went above and beyond in fixing our dryer vent issue. Not only did he fix our problem…he was able to do what other technicians before him couldn’t figure out. He was able to fix it expeditiously and for a fraction of what it would have cost us from other companies. …

Aaron truly exemplifies the true meaning of “Excellent Customer Service!” I will definitely use this company again in the future and will highly recommend them to our families and friends!
What this job usually involves
You usually notice a clogged dryer vent in the laundry before anywhere else: towels that need a second cycle, a dryer that's hot to the touch on top, a laundry room that heats up, a dryer that shuts itself off partway through, or a flap outside that doesn't open when it runs. The lint screen catches most of it. The rest goes down the line a little every load and packs in at the bends and at the hood outside.
A dryer vent cleaning starts with a camera in the line. The tech photographs what's in it and shows you. Then a rotary brush and a vacuum run together from the back of the dryer to the hood outside, so the lint comes out of the house instead of getting pushed further down the pipe. We check the airflow at the hood with the dryer running, and look for a crushed or foil hose that should be metal, joints that have come apart inside the wall, torn runs and old bird nests. You get before and after photos of the cleaning when we can get a clear shot, and a dated invoice if your association asks for one.

Questions people ask
How often should a dryer vent be cleaned?
Once a year. That's Fairfax County Fire and Rescue's advice for every homeowner, and sooner if clothes start taking longer than normal to dry. The National Fire Protection Association found failure to clean behind 32 percent of home fires involving a dryer, more than any other single cause.
Will I see what's inside my dryer vent?
Yes. We put a camera in the line, photograph what's in it and show you before we clean. When we can get a clear shot, you also get before and after photos of the cleaning.
My dryer isn't drying clothes. Is it the dryer vent?
Often. Go outside while it runs. If the flap barely moves, the dryer vent is packed and the damp air has nowhere to go. If air is blowing out hard and the clothes are still wet, it's more likely the dryer itself, and that's a job for an appliance repair shop, not us.
Do you clean high dryer vents on townhouses?
Yes, including long runs through a ceiling and hoods two or three stories up. Tell us how high the hood is when you book so the tech brings the right ladder. In a condo, ask your association first, because the dryer vent may belong to the building.
There's a burning smell when the dryer runs. What do I do?
Turn it off and don't run another load until the dryer vent has been checked. Lint that builds up where the hot air leaves the dryer can scorch, and that's often the smell. If you see smoke, get out and call 911.
Every other review that mentions it
Reliable service in Ashburn. They removed years of lint buildup from our second-floor laundry vent line that was turning into a major fire hazard.
Excellent!
Upgraded to their full system package which included cleaning the AC evaporator coil and the dryer vent. The dryer runs so much cooler now and finishes cycles in half the time! 💨
I am very happy with the service on my Dryer Vent cleaning from SwiftPro. Aron was professional and the overall experience was smooth. I liked the most about punctuality, cleanliness, clear options, or pricing transparency and discounts offered for subscriptions for HVAC. He checked my AC voluntarily without any charge and provided what can be fixed. I really appreciated that.
Aaron was awesome! He explained everything he was doing and was very professional throughout the entire process
Excellent work and very nice people. They clean the dryer vent. Also speaking Spanish.

We would highly recommend SwiftPro for any service needs and will definitely be working with them again in the future!
Oscar did an amazing work for my dryer vent cleaning! I highly recommend SwiftPro and Oscar! I will definitely contact him again for my next order!
Moises and SwiftPro were excellent. They cleaned my dryer duct and repaired an area that had become disconnected and was therefore posing a fire hazard. Moises was punctual, friendly, and even went the extra mile to help me briefly with another small household project.
We had Aaron from Swiftpro clean our dryer vent and he did a wonderful job. Arrived on time, was courteous and professional. He found and fixed a problem with the vent attachment at no extra charge. Would recommend highly!
Moises and his team made our experience replacing our 30 year old disorganized HVAC system with a new energy efficient TRANE system painless. They tightened up the duct work and wires so the whole unit took up a smaller neater footprint. The team was also so conscientious to make sure nothing was tracked into our house from the outside. Their price was competitive and they came in and worked hard and finished when they said they would. …

They also did a great job cleaning out our dryer vent which the previous owners of our home hadn't cleaned in many years. I highly recommend Moises, Tyler, and the team at Swiftpro. They are awesome.
We had a great experience when SwiftPro completed a dryer duct cleaning and a bathroom fan replacement at our home! They were on time, professional, and friendly. Moises also threw in a much-needed bird cover for our dryer vent to help prevent future issues. We highly recommend Tyler, Moises and the SwiftPro team for all of your HVAC and plumbing needs!
