Whole-system duct and dryer vent check with before-and-after photos - you see exactly what came out of your vents
That "$99 whole-house special" is a bait ad - the real number appears once they are in your hallway, or the "clean" is a shop-vac at the register. We photograph the inside of your ducts before and after instead.
Fast, Reliable Dryer Vent Cleaning Across Colorado Springs
Colorado Springs homeowners dealing with longer dry times, a hot laundry room, or that burning-lint smell coming from the back of the dryer need to know this: a full dryer vent cleaning in Colorado Springs typically runs $150 – $280 for a standard single-family home, and our crew can usually schedule you within a few days. We’re not driving up from Pueblo or down from Denver hoping to find your street. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Colorado Springs team dispatches from our Denver coordination office, but the technicians serving your home live and work in the Colorado Springs metro, which means they know the difference between a ranch in Broadmoor and a two-story in Briargate, and they carry the right ladder lengths and vent cap inventory for both.
Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate. We’ll give you a written price before anyone touches your vent, and that price is covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise.

Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed. You get their name before they arrive. Our phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, not a callback queue that dumps you to voicemail.

Dryer Vent Repair in Colorado Springs
Dryer Vent Repair in Colorado Springs covers the mechanical fixes that cleaning alone won’t solve: crushed or disconnected transition ducts behind the dryer, damaged vent caps that let in rain and rodents, and sections of rigid or flexible ducting that have separated at the joints. In Colorado Springs, we see a lot of this in the older ranch homes near Manitou Springs and Old Colorado City, where galvanized steel ductwork from the 1960s and 70s has corroded at the seams, and in newer builds where flexible ducting was poorly supported and has sagged, creating lint traps in the low spots.
Most Dryer Vent Repair jobs in Colorado Springs fall between $180 and $420, depending on how much material needs replacing and whether we need to access the attic or crawl space. We always inspect first, show you what’s wrong, and write the price down before any repair starts.
Crushed or Disconnected Transitions
The transition duct behind your dryer gets pushed, kinked, or partially disconnected every time you pull the machine out to clean behind it. We replace these with proper semi-rigid aluminum ducting, secured with metal clamps, not the foil or plastic flex that most hardware stores sell.
Vent Cap and Bird Guard Replacement
Colorado Springs wind storms off the plains will destroy a cheap plastic vent cap in a season. We install metal caps with built-in bird guards that keep out the swallows and sparrows that nest in vent terminations across the east side of the city.
Dryer Vent Cleaning Company in Colorado Springs
Dryer Vent Cleaning Company is what Hollis Air Duct Cleaning operates as across the Colorado Springs metro, and the core service hasn’t changed since we started: we remove lint buildup from the full length of your dryer vent duct, from the back of the machine to the exterior termination, using professional-grade rotary brush systems and high-velocity air tools. A standard cleaning in Colorado Springs takes 60 – 90 minutes for most single-family homes, and our Dryer Vent Cleaning crew uses Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines to do it. The dry, high-desert air here means lint is often powder-fine and densely packed, especially after a spring windstorm has driven dust through every gap in the building envelope.
Colorado Springs homeowners should schedule cleaning when dry times increase, when the laundry room feels hotter than usual, or annually if you run more than five loads per week. Homes with longer vent runs (more than 25 feet) or multiple bends need it more often.
Inspection and Lint Removal Process
We start with a visual inspection of the vent termination and a airflow reading. Then we feed a rotating brush through the duct, loosening packed lint, while a Nikro negative-air machine pulls the debris out before it can enter your home. We finish with a second airflow reading so you can see the before-and-after difference.
Vent Rerouting for Problem Installations
Some Colorado Springs homes, especially split-levels in the north end, were built with vent runs that are too long, have too many bends, or terminate in crawl spaces. We can reroute these to shorter, straighter paths that dry faster and safer. Rerouting jobs typically run $340 – $650 depending on access and materials.
Trusted Brands We Service in Colorado Springs
We don’t just clean vents. We stock replacement parts and filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman for Colorado Springs homeowners who need more than a basic cleaning. If your vent cap is damaged, your transition duct is the wrong material, or you’re dealing with persistent lint infiltration into your HVAC system, we carry the hardware to fix it on the spot. Our trucks are inventoried for the common vent configurations we see in Colorado Springs tract homes, from the 1970s ranches near Academy Boulevard to the newer construction in Falcon. That means fewer return trips and faster resolution. We also handle Duct Sealing in Colorado Springs and Air Duct Cleaning in Colorado Springs for homeowners who want the full system addressed.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Colorado Springs Homes
- Wind-driven lint packing from Front Range storms. Colorado Springs sits in a wind corridor where spring storms off the plains can drive fine dust and lint backward into vent terminations. We regularly find dense, powder-packed lint in vents on the city’s east side, near Powers Boulevard and the open prairie, a problem that doesn’t occur in sheltered mountain valleys.
- Original galvanized ductwork rusting through. The mid-century ranch homes in Old Colorado City and Manitou Springs often have galvanized steel ductwork that’s 40 – 60 years old. The seams rust, the metal flakes, and the rough interior surface catches lint that smooth aluminum would shed.
- Flexible ducting sagging in newer builds. Homes built from the 1990s through the 2000s in Briargate and the north side frequently use flexible ducting that wasn’t properly supported. Over time it sags between joists, creating low points where lint accumulates into hard-packed plugs.
- Bird and rodent intrusion at vent caps. The dry climate and open spaces around Colorado Springs attract swallows, sparrows, and occasional rodents to the warm, sheltered interior of vent ducts. We install metal bird guards that stop entry without restricting airflow.
