Their franchisees and their techs provide quick and professional dryer vent cleaning, typically 2 times a year for a normal home, once a quarter for a heavy-use dryer home, or once a year at minimum. Prices range from $99 for a ground-level, wall-mounted dryer vent to $150 for a rooftop vent. Franchisees also maintain and service dryer vent hoses, connections, and other dryer-related items.
