24/7 Immediate Response for all of the 757
Our agent will message you via text immediately after you submit this form. She can answer all of your questions and schedule appointments. You can also get immediate assistance via phone or email. It's our Easy / Hassle Free Promise.
Portsmouth homes include a range of dryer vent configurations — short wall exits in compact in-town layouts, longer runs in two-story homes, and attic or crawl-space routing in older properties. Regardless of configuration, our technicians clear the full vent path using professional equipment, then photograph the work from connection to exterior cap so you can see exactly what was removed.
Every visit starts with a free photo inspection that documents vent length, elbow count, and cap condition. We quote from those findings, not from a phone estimate, so the price you agree to is the one you pay.
Many Portsmouth homeowners combine dryer vent cleaning with air duct cleaning or sanitizing in a single visit. The free photo inspection covers the duct system alongside the vent, so you leave with a complete picture of every air-moving component in the house.
Dryer vent cleaning is priced after the free inspection based on run length and access. Duct cleaning for a qualifying single-zone system starts at $312; final pricing depends on supply-line count, routing, and accessibility. SmartPay "Service Now, Pay Later" is available from $75 down.

A sample of the work our crews have completed recently in this area — each house on the map matches a job below.
Cavalier Blvd, Cavalier Manor
Full duct cleaning followed by an antimicrobial sanitizing fog to knock out the musty AC smell this Cavalier Manor homeowner noticed every time the system kicked on.
I was skeptical duct cleaning would matter. Then I saw what came out of ours. Never skeptical again.
Crawford Pkwy, Downtown
Standing moisture had soaked the insulation on three runs until they dripped. Replaced them with sealed R-8 duct and re-routed one off the wet ground.
They showed me photos of the rotted duct insulation and walked me through SmartPay financing. New ductwork installed in one day — great crew, great Downtown neighbors.
High St, Midtown
Roughly a third of this Midtown system's airflow was escaping under the house. Sealed every connection and showed the owner the photos to prove it.
The free inspection paid for itself — I was cooling my crawl space all this time. Highly recommend them to anyone in Midtown.
Horne Ave, Truxtun
The return was a full size too small for the tonnage, making the blower work overtime. Replaced and upsized it; the owner noticed the quiet immediately.
Our energy bill tells the story — the ducts were the problem, and now they're not.
Irwin St, Victory Village
Sealed sweating duct boots and gaps around floor registers in a Victory Village home — a common fix here that stops condensation, rust rings, and pest entry points.
Turns out the 'weak AC' we almost replaced was just a disconnected duct. These guys saved us thousands.
Victory Blvd, Manor View & Simonsdale
A bathroom gut-job in this Manor View & Simonsdale house left the returns coated in sanding dust. We cleared every run and swapped the clogged filter on the way out.
Between the two cats and the beach sand, our vents were a disaster. They got every bit of it out.
Cumberland Ave, Park Manor & West Park
A Park Manor & West Park household with year-round sinus trouble asked us to start at the ductwork. The before photos told the story; the after photos sold it.
House smells like nothing now — which is exactly what you want. The vents used to puff out that old-house smell every morning.
City Park Ave, Cradock
Both trunk lines and fourteen branch runs cleaned in a single visit — the kind of buildup we often find in Cradock homes that have never had it done.
The tech explained every step and never once tried to sell me something extra. That alone earned the five stars.

With salt air rolling off the Chesapeake Bay, the family of problems behind bad indoor air needs one accountable, family-owned team: duct cleaning, pest and rodent control, insulation replacement, and full duct replacement. No one else in Hampton Roads offers all four.
