A clogged dryer vent is more than an inconvenience—it is a leading cause of residential fires across the U.S. For Knoxville’s humid climate, trapped lint can hold additional moisture, forcing your dryer to overwork and driving energy costs through the roof. CountBricks provides professional dryer vent cleaning Knoxville homeowners rely on, backed by AI-driven estimating and scheduling tools that simplify every step.

How often should I book a cleaning? CountBricks recommends every 12 months, or every six months if you run more than five loads a week.
Will cleaning void my appliance warranty? No. In fact, many manufacturers require annual vent maintenance to keep warranties valid.
Can I do it myself? Basic lint removal is DIY-friendly, but full-length vent lines need specialized brushes and airflow meters to ensure safety. CountBricks offers affordable pricing with professional results.

During a recent kitchen-laundry remodel, our project manager loaded the client’s plans into the CountBricks blueprint takeoff tool. The AI flagged a 28-foot dryer vent run hidden behind new cabinetry—well above the 25-foot code maximum for safe airflow.
The Challenge: Cutting back drywall and cabinets would add days of labor and thousands in change orders.
The CountBricks Solution:
• Our estimator generated an alternate routing plan, reducing the run to 18 feet and adding a rooftop exit.
• Voice notes captured on-site automatically updated material lists—rigid metal duct, roof cap, and flashing. No manual data entry.
• The homeowner received an updated quote in under ten minutes, complete with side-by-side cost comparisons.
The Results: Vent relocation and cleaning were finished within the original timeline. Post-project airflow tests showed a 42% efficiency gain, and the client saved $1,200 by avoiding cabinetry rework.
