Thorough Dryer Vent Duct Cleaning in Johns Creek, GA

On request, yes. Standard cleaning includes before/after photos at the dryer end and the exterior vent hood; a full camera pass is useful if the dryer keeps throwing an error code after a clean, if you suspect a disconnection inside the wall, or if you're buying or selling the home.

A single-vent single-story cleaning is 30 to 60 minutes; two-story, roof termination, multi-vent, or a repair can take 1 to 3 hours. We lay down floor protection, vacuum the work area, reconnect the dryer, and walk through with you at the end.

Yes — stop running the dryer and book us same-day. A burning smell almost always means lint has reached the heating element or motor. Run it only long enough to confirm the smell, then unplug it until we look. This is exactly the call that, ignored, ends with a burned-out dryer or worse.

Almost always the vent. LG d80/d90/d95, Samsung 'Check vent', and Whirlpool/GE flow codes all read the same airflow sensor and trip when the duct line is restricted. A vent cleaning is the cheap fix to try before calling an appliance tech; if the code persists after a clean and an airflow test, then it's worth a dryer service call.

Most often a clogged duct line tripping the dryer's thermal cutoff. A standard cleaning fixes it in most cases. If it keeps cutting off after a clean and a verified airflow test, the thermal fuse has likely tripped and needs reset by an appliance tech.

Plastic and vinyl flex is no longer code in most jurisdictions because it tears easily and is a known fire risk. If your setup has it, we'll tell you on the walkthrough and quote a semi-rigid metal replacement — it's a fast add-on that usually pays for itself in dryer efficiency.
