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.

AfterFast, Reliable Dryer Vent Cleaning Across Graham
Dryer vent cleaning in Graham typically runs $180 – $340 per system, with most jobs completed in 90 minutes to two hours. If your home sits on acreage off Meridian Ave E or near Kapowsin Highway with a long flex run to a crawlspace or roof termination, the inspection and clearing of that hidden pathway is what you’re actually paying for. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
We serve Graham’s rural lots, manufactured homes, and owner-built acreage properties from our Seattle office, with crews that know the difference between a standard suburban vent and the crushed flex, rodent-compromised runs common in Pierce County’s unincorporated communities. Our technicians carry Rotobrush rotary systems and inspection cameras for the full length of your vent pathway, not just the trap and the first few feet.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Graham’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
Hollis has been part of the Garrison Partners family since 2004. The 365-Day Done Right Promise applies to every dryer vent job in Graham: if the work fails within a year, we return and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. That promise is backed in writing, not spoken and forgotten.
Our Graham customers know who is arriving at their door. Every technician is background-checked, uniformed, and expected to operate by The Garrison Code: arrive inside the quoted window, price in writing before touching equipment, complete the job by the book, and leave the site clean. Phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No voicemail loops. No callback queues.
We don’t compete on the lowest teaser price. We compete on discipline: show up when we said, price it before we touch it, document what we found with photos and airflow readings you can see. For Graham’s owner-built homes with multiple systems and long runs, that documentation matters more than a cheap flat rate that doesn’t account for what your specific property requires.
Dryer Vent Cleaning Company in Graham
Dryer Vent Cleaning Company service in Graham means clearing the complete lint pathway from the dryer connection through the termination point, including segments hidden in crawlspaces, attics, or behind converted-garage walls. Most Graham homes need this every 12 – 18 months if the dryer sees regular use; homes with long flex runs, multiple bends, or rodent activity may need inspection more frequently. A standard cleaning in Graham runs $180 – $260 for a single system with accessible termination. Complex runs with crawlspace or attic segments, or jobs requiring flex replacement and rodent remediation, typically fall in the $260 – $340 range.
What the Cleaning Actually Covers
We connect a Rotobrush rotary brush system to the full vent run, agitating and extracting lint deposits from elbows, low spots, and crushed sections. For Graham’s rural homes, we also inspect the termination screen and damper for agricultural dust and pollen buildup that suburban systems rarely see. The job ends with airflow measurement and before/after documentation.
When Graham Homeowners Should Schedule
Clothes taking more than one cycle to dry, a hot dryer exterior, or a burning smell are clear signals. In Graham’s damp climate, homeowners sometimes misread these as “humidity problems” rather than blocked venting. If your laundry area feels unusually humid or you notice lint collecting at the interior connection, the hidden run is likely compromised.
Dryer Vent Inspection in Graham
Dryer Vent Inspection in Graham is often the more critical service, because so many of this community’s owner-built and added-onto homes conceal the vent pathway in ways that hide failure until it becomes a fire risk. An inspection runs $120 – $180 as a standalone service, or it is included in the cleaning price when work proceeds. We recommend an inspection before buying any Graham acreage property, and annually for homes with converted garages, owner-built additions, or known rodent activity.
Camera Documentation of Hidden Runs
Our technicians run a camera through the full vent length, recording crushed flex, disconnected joints, lint deposits at elbows, and rodent intrusion. You see what we see. In Graham’s crawlspaces and attics, this is the only way to verify the vent path is intact and exhausting outside rather than leaking into your structure.
Airflow and Back-Pressure Testing
We measure static pressure and airflow at the dryer connection and the termination. A healthy system moves roughly 1,500 – 2,000 feet per minute at the exterior cap. Readings below 1,000 FPM indicate blockage, crushing, or an undersized/run-length violation that lint cleaning alone won’t fix. We report the numbers in writing.
Trusted Brands We Service in Graham
Our crews carry professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, and Abatement Technologies, with replacement caps, screens, and flex duct sized for the brands common in Graham’s housing stock. We stock Guardsman termination hardware and Aprilaire filtration products for homeowners who want to upgrade their laundry area air handling while we’re on site. Parts availability means most Graham jobs are completed in a single visit without ordering delays.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Graham Homes
- Rodent-chewed flex in crawlspaces and attics. Graham’s rural lots and wooded acreage host active rodent populations that treat flex duct as nesting material. We regularly find chewed runs where lint exhausts into the crawlspace instead of outside, hiding the real blockage until the dryer overheats or the homeowner smells something wrong.
- Owner-built additions with excessive run length. Converted garages and added laundry rooms often create vent paths that exceed 25 feet with multiple 90-degree bends, beyond what a residential dryer fan can effectively push. Lint deposits at the low spots and elbows where airflow stalls.
- Improper terminations in damp crawlspaces. Graham’s wet winters lead some homeowners or prior contractors to vent dryers into crawlspaces or partial runs, loading humidity onto wood framing. We identify these as venting failures, not “condensation issues,” and reroute to proper exterior termination.
- Crushed flex behind converted-garage walls. On a Graham acreage off Meridian Ave E, our tech pulled a Guardsman vent brush and camera on a 1980s owner-built ranch and found the flexible run crushed behind a converted-garage laundry, with rodent nesting material packed at the crawlspace elbow and the blower motor tripping on high-limit. We cleared the lint pathway, replaced the crushed flex, screened the exterior termination, and documented the before/after with photos and airflow readings. We also flagged that the adjacent supply and return ducts were custom non-standard runs common to Graham’s self-built stock, so the homeowner could plan the duct cleaning separately.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Graham
Your Graham home likely has a longer, more complex vent run. Puyallup’s suburban tract construction typically uses short, straight metal duct to an exterior wall. Graham’s owner-built acreage homes often route flex duct through crawlspaces and attics with multiple bends, and the surrounding forests and farm fields load more pollen and particulate into the air that the dryer intake draws. Those longer, slower pathways deposit lint faster. Call (361) 326-5060 and we’ll measure your actual airflow to tell you where the restriction is.
We run a camera through the full vent length and take airflow readings at both ends. You get photos of the interior condition and a written report with before/after static pressure and FPM numbers. In Graham’s hidden runs, that documentation is the only proof that matters.
Yes, and we price per system, not with a flat rate that pretends every job is identical. A third system on a Graham acreage property with a long addition run costs $140 – $220, depending on access and run complexity. We inspect all three and write the total price before starting any work. Call (361) 326-5060 for an exact quote.
We treat them as the same visit. Our technicians remove nesting material, replace chewed flex, screen the exterior termination, and document the repair. In Graham’s rural crawlspaces, rodent intrusion and lint blockage are usually connected problems. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers our repair work for a full year.
Dryer cycle times should drop noticeably, often by 25 – 40%. The laundry area should feel less humid. You’ll receive written airflow readings, before/after photos of the vent interior, and a copy of our 365-Day Done Right Promise. If performance doesn’t improve, call us back within a year and we’ll return at no charge. Call (361) 326-5060 to schedule.
