Dryer Vent Cleaning & Repair Services

A safe, efficient home starts with something many homeowners overlook—the dryer vent. At Thomas Restoration, we know how critical it is to keep this system clean, sealed, and functioning properly. Dryer vents don’t just affect how quickly your clothes dry—they directly impact your home’s safety, air quality, and energy costs.

With over 30 years of experience in restoration and construction, our team brings the same level of care and craftsmanship to dryer vent services as we do to every project. Whether it’s a simple cleaning, a full replacement, or rerouting an outdated system, we provide trusted solutions that protect your home, extend the life of your appliances, and give you peace of mind.

Proudly serving Clarksville, TN, and surrounding areas across Middle Tennessee and Southern Kentucky, Thomas Restoration is your local partner for dryer vent safety and performance.

Why Dryer Vent Service Matters

Every load of laundry creates lint, dust, and moisture. While your lint trap captures some of it, a significant amount bypasses the screen and collects inside the dryer vent. Over time, this buildup restricts airflow, causing your dryer to work harder, run longer, and consume more energy. Worse yet, trapped lint is highly flammable—making clogged dryer vents one of the leading causes of house fires in the U.S.

Poorly installed or damaged vents can also leak warm, humid air into your walls, attic, or crawl space. That extra moisture encourages mold growth, weakens building materials, and drives up humidity inside your home. In multi-unit buildings, neglected dryer vents can even impact the safety of neighboring families.

Our dryer vent services don’t just restore airflow; they create a safer, more efficient environment for your home and everyone in it.

Comprehensive Dryer Vent Services

At Thomas Restoration, we take a full-service approach. Instead of quick fixes, we provide long-term solutions built around your specific home layout and safety needs. Our dryer vent services include:

  • Dryer Vent Cleaning – Complete removal of lint, dust, and blockages using specialized equipment that cleans the entire vent line from end to end.

  • Dryer Vent Repair – Sealing gaps, reconnecting loose fittings, and fixing damaged ductwork to restore safe operation.

  • Dryer Vent Replacement – Upgrading old, unsafe vent materials (like plastic or foil) to rigid or semi-rigid metal ducts that meet today’s fire safety codes.

  • Rerouting & Installation – Designing and installing properly vented systems for new construction, remodels, or when your existing vent is too long, kinked, or inefficient.

  • Lint Trap & Booster Fan Cleaning – Deep cleaning of secondary components that often go overlooked but can significantly impact efficiency.

  • Exterior Vent Cover Installation – Replacing outdated covers with modern, pest-resistant designs that improve airflow while keeping out birds, rodents, and debris.

  • Airflow & Moisture Testing – Ensuring your system not only looks clean but performs safely and efficiently under real-world use.

Professional Dryer Vent Cleaning

A clogged dryer vent doesn’t always look like a problem from the outside. Common warning signs include longer drying times, clothes that feel unusually hot after a cycle, or a dryer that overheats and shuts down mid-load.

Our cleaning process is designed to address the problem at its source. Using professional-grade brushes, vacuums, and compressed air tools, we clear blockages throughout the vent line—not just near the dryer. We also inspect for hidden issues like crushed sections, bird nests, or disconnected joints that can be just as dangerous as lint buildup.

The result? Faster drying times, lower energy bills, less wear on your dryer, and a greatly reduced risk of fire.

Repair, Replacement & Rerouting

Not every dryer vent problem can be solved with cleaning alone. Many homes—especially older ones—were built with flexible plastic or foil venting, which is no longer recommended due to its tendency to trap lint and melt in high heat. Others have vents that run too long, make sharp turns, or vent into unsafe areas like attics or garages.

Our licensed contractors can repair damaged ductwork, replace outdated materials, and reroute vents for maximum efficiency and code compliance. We only use high-quality, fire-resistant materials and install systems designed for long-term safety and performance.
