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 Sunrise
Dryer vent cleaning in Sunrise typically costs $150 – $275 for a standard single-family home and takes 60 – 90 minutes from arrival to cleanup. Our crews serve Sunrise from our Miami South FL dispatch office, so we’re familiar with the slab-on-grade construction, high water table, and year-round humidity that make this job different here than in drier inland markets. If your dryer is taking longer to dry, your laundry room feels unusually warm, or you’ve noticed a burning smell near the drum, call us at (361) 326-5060. We’ll give you a written price before any work starts and schedule you inside a firm arrival window.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Sunrise’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
We’ve been working in Sunrise since 2004 as part of the Garrison Partners family, and our technicians know the difference between a routine lint clearing and the moisture-compromised vent runs we find in neighborhoods like Sunrise Golf Village and Sawgrass Lakes. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning team arrives in uniform, background-checked, and equipped with Rotobrush rotary systems and Nikro negative-air machines – the same tools commercial crews use, not hardware-store attachments.
Every job gets a written price before we touch anything, backed by our 365-Day Done Right Promise. If the work fails within a year, we come back and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. Phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week – no voicemail loops, no callback queues. That’s The Garrison Standard, and it’s how we operate in Sunrise.
Dryer Vent Cleaning Service in Sunrise
Dryer Vent Cleaning Service in Sunrise means more than pulling lint from a trap. We clear the full vent run from the dryer drum to the exterior termination, inspect the transition duct, and check airflow with a calibrated manometer. In Sunrise’s humid climate, we also check for moisture intrusion – especially in slab-on-grade homes where the vent run travels under concrete and can flood after heavy rains. A typical dryer vent cleaning in Sunrise runs $150 – $225 for a single-story home with roof or wall termination, and $200 – $275 if we need to access an under-slab run or reroute a damaged section.
Full Vent Run Clearing
We use a Rotobrush rotary brush system paired with Nikro negative-air HEPA collection to scrub the entire duct length without blowing lint into your laundry room. The brush head is sized to your duct diameter – usually 4-inch rigid or semi-rigid metal in Sunrise’s older homes, sometimes flex duct in 1990s builds like Sawgrass Lakes – and we camera-verify the pass before we leave.
Moisture and Mold Assessment
Because Sunrise’s high water table sits inches below the surface in many neighborhoods, we check under-slab vent runs for standing water or damp lint compaction after storms. Damp lint doesn’t just block airflow; it corrodes metal ducting and feeds mold growth that can spread to adjacent HVAC components. We document what we find with photo evidence, which matters if you’re filing an insurance claim for water damage.
Dryer Vent Installation in Sunrise
Dryer Vent Installation in Sunrise often involves replacing flood-damaged under-slab runs or upgrading unsafe plastic or foil transition ducts to code-compliant rigid metal. We also reroute vents that terminate too close to AC condensers or windows, and install bird guards and proper vent caps to keep wildlife and rainwater out. A new dryer vent installation in Sunrise typically runs $300 – $550 for a standard wall-through installation, and $500 – $850 if we’re cutting a new route through a slab foundation or rerouting from an obsolete under-slab chase to an above-grade wall termination.
Slab Rerouting and Code Upgrades
Many Sunrise homes built in the 1960s – 80s have dryer vents running under the slab to a low exterior termination. After flooding, these runs can hold water, corrode, or become inaccessible. We reroute to an above-grade wall termination with proper slope and a weatherproof cap, which eliminates the groundwater risk and makes future cleaning possible.
Bird Guard and Vent Cap Replacement
Sunrise’s tropical climate means birds nest year-round, and standard flapper vents often jam with lint or rust open. We install metal mesh bird guards and corrosion-resistant vent caps that still allow proper airflow and meet Florida building code for moisture resistance.
Trusted Brands We Service in Sunrise
Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary brush systems for mechanical agitation, Nikro negative-air machines for contained lint removal, and Guardsman filtration products for HEPA-level capture. We stock common vent cap sizes, rigid metal duct sections, and transition fittings locally, so most Sunrise jobs don’t wait on parts. When we install new components, we use materials rated for Florida’s humidity and salt air – not the cheapest box-store option, but the one that holds up in Sunrise conditions.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Sunrise Homes
- Under-slab flooding after summer storms. Sunrise’s high water table means heavy rain can fill duct chases under slab-on-grade homes with standing water. We’ve found lint compacted into a soggy, moldy mat in Sunrise Golf Village ranches where the exterior termination sat below grade.
- Corroded metal ducting from constant humidity. Sunrise’s tropical monsoon climate keeps humidity high even in winter, so galvanized metal ducts installed in the 1970s and 80s rust through from the inside out, creating leaks that reduce airflow and dump lint into wall cavities.
- Incomplete cleaning that misses the blower motor and transition. Some crews clean the first few feet of duct and call it done. We see the result: a dryer that still takes two cycles because compacted lint is packed around the blower wheel and the under-slab transition, where airflow is already weakest.
- Improper terminations that invite water and pests. Low exterior terminations without bird guards or with rusted-open flappers let in rainwater, roof rats, and nesting birds – all common in Sunrise’s lush, mature neighborhoods with dense tree canopy.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Sunrise
No – if you suspect water entered the under-slab chase, stop using the dryer until a technician inspects the full run. Wet lint is a fire hazard and can corrode the duct, and standing water near the termination can wick back toward the dryer. We check under-slab runs with a camera and airflow meter after storms, and we’ll show you what we find before recommending cleaning or replacement. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free inspection.
Every 12 – 18 months for most Sunrise homes, and every 6 – 12 months if you have a large household, pets, or an under-slab vent run. The constant humidity here means lint clings to duct walls more aggressively than in drier climates, and the cooling season never really ends so dryers work harder year-round. We put you on a written schedule and call when you’re due.
Yes – we regularly reroute under-slab dryer vents to above-grade wall terminations in Sunrise neighborhoods like Sunrise Golf Village and Sawgrass Lakes. We core-drill through the block or stucco, install rigid metal duct with proper slope and a weatherproof cap, and seal the old slab chase to prevent groundwater intrusion. A reroute typically runs $500 – $850 and eliminates the flooding risk permanently.
Because the blockage is almost always deeper in the run – compacted lint around the blower motor, in the transition duct, or at the exterior termination. In Sunrise, we also find that under-slab runs with partial flooding create a damp lint mat that restricts airflow without completely blocking it. A visual check of the trap won’t catch this; we use a camera and airflow meter to locate the real restriction.
Yes – we inspect for mold and moisture damage as standard practice in Sunrise because our climate and high water table make it a genuine risk, not a rare exception. If we find microbial growth, we document it with photos, explain whether cleaning or replacement is appropriate, and provide written findings you can use for insurance or remediation decisions. The inspection is included in our standard cleaning price.
