We tell you on the call. Most roof-access cleanings are at the $89 standard rate, but tile roofs, steep pitches, and very high roofs may add a safety access surcharge, which we quote before we dispatch so you're not surprised in Winthrop.

Once a year for most homes, sooner if you have a long run, a two-story home with a roof termination, heavy-shedding pets, or a large household running multiple loads a day. Annual cleaning is also a fire-safety standard — lint buildup is the leading cause of residential dryer fires.

Common signs: clothes still damp after a full cycle, the dryer hot to the touch, a burning smell when it runs, lint behind the dryer or around the exterior vent hood, an airflow/lint error code (LG d80/d90/d95, Samsung 'Check vent'), or a vent flap that won't open. Any one is worth a cleaning.

The most common cause is a clogged duct line restricting airflow: the dryer works but the hot, moist air can't exit fast enough. Other causes are a kinked or torn flex pipe, an undersized booster fan on a long run, or a stuck exterior vent flap. A standard cleaning fixes about 80% of these calls.
