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 Hiram
Dryer vent cleaning in Hiram typically runs $150 – $275 for a standard single-family home, and most jobs take 60 to 90 minutes from arrival to finish. Our crews serve Hiram from our Atlanta dispatch office, so we’re familiar with the winding subdivisions off Charles Hardy Parkway and the ranch-style homes clustered near Jimmy Lee Smith Parkway. We’ve cleared lint-blocked vents in homes backing up to Ben Hill Strickland Park and replaced crushed flex duct in the two-story builds near Hiram Sudie Road. If your dryer’s taking two cycles to finish a load, or you’re smelling something hot behind the laundry room door, that’s not normal wear. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate and we’ll give you a written price before any work starts.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Hiram’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
We’ve been handling Dryer Vent Cleaning across metro Atlanta since 2004, and Hiram’s growth pattern is one we know well. The homes built during the 1990s and 2000s boom here were fitted with thin, flexible transition ducts and vent caps that clog faster than rigid metal systems. Roy Castellanos and our team have replaced hundreds of these in Hiram alone, often in homes where the original builder-grade vent run was too long, too bent, or terminated in a spot that traps lint against the siding.
Our technicians arrive in uniform, background-checked, and on time. The price we quote over the phone holds at the door. Every job carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If the work fails within a year, we come back and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. That’s not a tagline. It’s printed on every Hollis invoice, and it’s how we’ve operated since day one.
Phones are answered by a live person, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No voicemail loops, no callback queues, no waiting until Monday morning to schedule.
Dryer Vent Repair in Hiram
Dryer Vent Repair in Hiram becomes necessary when the vent line is damaged, disconnected, or routed in a way that creates fire risk and energy waste. Most Hiram homes we visit have either a crushed section of flex duct behind the dryer, a sagging run through the crawl space, or a termination cap that’s missing its flapper entirely. Repair costs in Hiram typically range from $180 for a straightforward replacement of damaged flex duct up to $450 for rerouting a vent line through an exterior wall with proper rigid metal pipe.
Disconnected or Crushed Transitions
The transition duct behind your dryer takes the most abuse. It’s kicked, kinked, and compressed every time the machine moves. In Hiram’s older ranch homes near Wellstar Paulding Hospital, we often find the original foil or plastic transition has torn at the clamp points. We replace these with UL-listed rigid or semi-rigid metal duct, properly supported and sealed.
Improper Terminations and Backdraft Issues
A vent cap that doesn’t close properly lets humid Georgia air, pollen, and insects straight into your duct. During Hiram’s muggy summers, that trapped moisture mixes with lint and creates a paste that hardens inside the pipe. We install proper vent caps with functioning flappers, and we verify that the termination point meets code clearance from windows, doors, and AC units.
Dryer Vent Cleaning Company in Hiram
Dryer Vent Cleaning Company services in Hiram cover the full removal of lint accumulation from the dryer connection through the exterior termination point. A standard cleaning for a Hiram home with a single-story vent run of 15 feet or less typically costs $150 – $195. Two-story homes with longer runs, multiple bends, or roof terminations fall in the $200 – $275 range. We use professional-grade rotary brush systems and high-velocity air tools, not shop vacuums with plastic attachments.
What Our Cleaning Process Includes
We disconnect the dryer, inspect the full run with a borescope camera when access allows, agitate the lint with a Rotobrush rotary system, and extract it with negative-air equipment. The vent cap is removed, cleaned, and tested for proper airflow before we leave. You get before-and-after photos of your own ducts, not stock images.
Bird Guard and Pest Prevention
Starlings and sparrows love the warm air coming from dryer vents, especially during Hiram’s mild winters. We install stainless steel bird guards that stop nesting without restricting airflow. If your vent cap is missing or damaged, we’ll replace it with a proper model that closes between cycles.
Trusted Brands We Service in Hiram
Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary brush systems for mechanical agitation, Nikro negative-air machines for high-volume extraction, and filtration and sealing products from Abatement Technologies and Guardsman. These are the same tools commercial duct crews use in hospitals and schools, not hardware-store attachments. For Hiram homeowners, that means we can handle rigid metal duct, foil flex, or the semi-rigid aluminum transitions found in most local homes built after 2005. We stock common vent caps, bird guards, and transition fittings so most repairs finish in a single visit without waiting on parts.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Hiram Homes
- Long vent runs through unconditioned attics. Many Hiram two-story homes have dryer vents routed through hot attics above the second floor. Georgia’s summer heat bakes lint into a hardened layer that reduces airflow by half. We see this constantly in subdivisions off Hiram Acworth Highway.
- Original builder-grade flex duct deteriorating from the inside. Homes built during Hiram’s 1990s – 2000s growth spurt often have white vinyl or thin aluminum flex that tears at stress points. The lint doesn’t just block airflow, it escapes into wall cavities and crawl spaces.
- Roof terminations with no proper cap. Some Hiram builders terminated dryer vents through the roof with a simple gooseneck cover. These clog with lint and trap moisture from our humid summers, creating a fire hazard that’s invisible from the ground.
- Condensation mixing with lint during muggy months. Hiram’s humid subtropical climate means attic ductwork sweats from June through September. When that moisture hits lint buildup, it forms a dense, mold-supporting mat that standard vacuuming won’t remove. Our rotary brush and negative-air method breaks it loose and extracts it completely.
Pricing for Dryer Vent Cleaning in Hiram, GA
We’re transparent about what dryer vent cleaning costs because we’ve seen what bait-and-switch pricing does to homeowners in Hiram. A standard cleaning with one exterior wall termination runs $150 – $195. Two-story homes, roof terminations, or longer runs with multiple elbows typically fall between $200 and $275. Dryer vent repair, including rerouting or replacing damaged duct, ranges from $180 to $450 depending on materials and labor. Bird guard installation adds $45 – $85 per cap.
What drives cost up: inaccessible crawl spaces, roof terminations requiring ladder work, rodent damage requiring section replacement, or multiple bends that need camera inspection. What doesn’t change the price: the number of laundry loads you run, the brand of your dryer, or whether we find more lint than expected. The price we write down before work starts is the price you pay. No per-vent add-ons, no trip charges, no “while we’re here” upsells.
