Montgomery’s warm, humid climate creates the perfect storm for lint and moisture to build up inside dryer ducts. A clogged vent can lead to longer drying times, skyrocketing utility bills, and—most critically—house fires. CountBricks has spent years protecting Alabama homeowners through precise, AI-driven residential construction services, and dryer vent cleaning is one of the simplest ways we safeguard your investment. Whether you are renovating a historic Midtown bungalow or constructing a new build in East Montgomery, our team ensures your venting system performs at peak efficiency.
• Excessive lint is highly combustible, making dryer vents one of the leading causes of residential fires.
• Blocked airflow forces your dryer to run hotter and longer, shortening appliance lifespan and raising energy costs.
• Moisture trapped in ductwork can lead to mold growth that spreads into surrounding framing and insulation.
• A stressed system strains HVAC equipment because additional heat has to be removed from living spaces.
1. AI-Powered Assessment: Using the CountBricks voice-to-estimate platform, we document vent length, material, and exit points in real time.
2. Up-Front Pricing: Our software instantly generates a line-item estimate so you can approve the service with full transparency.
3. Safe Disassembly: Certified technicians disconnect the dryer, protect surrounding finishes, and photograph conditions for your digital record at CountBricks.com/portfolio.
4. Mechanical & Air Wash: We use rotary brush systems combined with negative-pressure vacuums to remove lint without scattering dust.
5. Inspection & Thermal Scan: A borescope camera and infrared imaging verify the duct is clear and joints are intact.
6. Reassembly & Report: Your dryer is reconnected, airflow is tested, and an automatically generated maintenance report appears in your CountBricks dashboard.
• Clothes require more than one cycle to dry.
• The laundry room feels unusually hot or humid.
• You detect a musty or burning smell during operation.
• Visible lint accumulates around the exterior vent hood.
• Your dryer shuts off mid-cycle or displays error codes.
Vent Length & Complexity
A single-story ranch with a straight exit may cost less than a multi-level home where the duct snakes through framing. CountBricks AI calculates footage, elbows, and roof penetrations to provide an exact price before work begins.
Material Type
Rigid metal lasts longer and is easier to maintain than flexible foil. If our inspection shows sub-par materials, CountBricks.com/services will recommend an upgrade and include it in your digital estimate.
Accessibility
Second-floor laundry rooms or rooftop exhausts require additional safety measures. CountBricks factors ladders, scaffolding, or crawl-space entry into your quote so there are no surprises.
Because CountBricks is more than a cleaning company, we view dryer ventilation as one component of a larger building system. During every service call we can:
• Add fresh insulation around vent runs to reduce heat loss.
• Recommend wall or roof cap replacements to prevent backdrafting.
• Integrate the vent route into future remodeling plans so framing changes stay code-compliant.
Our team uploads these findings directly into your project file, enabling seamless collaboration with architects and subcontractors.
1. Mark Your Calendar: Plan a professional cleaning once a year, or every six months if you run more than five loads per week.
2. Perform Monthly Visual Checks: Confirm exterior flaps open freely and remove any bird nests or debris.
3. Clean the Lint Trap: A clear filter after every load boosts airflow by up to 30%, extending time between professional visits.
4. Leverage the CountBricks App: Enable reminders and one-tap scheduling straight from your project dashboard.
