I called Tuesday evening and was able to get an appointment Wednesday morning. Dustin showed up as scheduled to clean my dryer vent. Dustin assessed the issue and had the vent clean and working perfect in 5 minutes. Dustin did not try to upsell anything and gave suggestions on maintaining the dryer vent. I just moved to Murrieta and did not know who to contact for services. I am glad I found these guys on Yelp and would recommend A Better Vent to everyone. read more

I left a voicemail for Alex. He replied back almost immediately. I have a condo that I rent out that is unoccupied. The gas fireplace did not work. He went out the morning after I contacted him and fixed it. He was able to get it with the lock box. Couldn't be more pleased with him and the result. I highly recommend Abetter Vent Cleaning. I called 2 other companies and have still not heard back from them. read more

So this winter our chimney cap apparently rusted and during the weather part of it blew off. It didn't seem to pose an immediate issues so we ignored it. Well spring came and then we got bees in our chimney. We got the bees cleared and called Alex with Abetter Vent Cleaning to come out and replace our cap and give our chimney a sweep. Alex was super responsive and came out right away to check out our situation. Got a quote within no time and we got it scheduled. Just got our new cap installed and chimney cleaned even after we had to change our appointment time. Price was good and everything was done very well. Glad I found Abetter Vent and would definitely use them again! read more

I was very happy the guy showed up on time explained what he was going to do and then told me how to keep up with the cleaning. He cleaned the vent out and now my clothes will dry faster. Thank you Alex for cleaning the vent out. read more

Timely,, professional, friendly and honest. AND family owned and operated. What else is there to ask for. My dryer is working great. Vents cleaned and now no fire danger. Can't recommend them highly enough read more

So I just moved into my home and after using my dryer for the first time the laundry room became very humid, wet and hot. It was so bad that I thought there wasn't an exhaust going outside for the dryer. After searching on Google for companies that could install an exhaust I came across Abetter Vent. I spoke directly with Alex and after talking it out realized I had a vent leading outside on the roof but it was just clogged so I didn't need to have an exhaust installed after all, I just needed it cleaned out. Call me naive but I didn't know this happens or was a thing. I told Alex the urgency to have it resolved because we just moved in and had a bunch of things to wash for our kids so he made visiting our home a priority. He did a great job and my laundry room no longer feels like a Costa Rican rain forest in the summer. I will be using Abetter Vent every year to prevent any fires in my home because apparently dryer vents do clog up. Thanks Alex! read more

Alex was courteous, efficient and helpful. I called, left a message and he returned the call within 30 min. He was able to schedule an appointment the next day. He explained what he had done and provided a video of the inside of the dryer air duct. I would highly recommend this business and will continue to use their services annually as recommended. read more

Alex is the best. I am a Home Owner and Real Estate professional in this valley for 24 years. I have used Alex for my own home and always recommend him to my buyers and sellers. He and any staff have always been very professional and CLEAN, they always leave the job better than when they arrived! read more

Had a great experience with Abetter Cleaning. They gave me a break down of what was happening. Alex was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. Once they were done they cleaned up everything. No mess. I will recommend to my friends and family about them. read more

I had my fireplace cleaned last year & it was professional service & he did a great job. 5 STARS!!!

Fair price, great job. Dustin was courteous and very helpful when we had questions about the duct system. It's amazing how much dryer lint builds up over time; we'll definitely be having Abetter Vent come out for regular annual cleaning! read more

Alex was honest and very knowledgable. I would definitely use him again for any fireplace needs in the future. If you are looking for these type of services, I would highly recommend him. Thanks for doing a great job! read more

We probably never realize the cost impact of our clogged dryer vents. However, the noisy vent blower was our indicator that we had a problem. After going on yelp to find a service provider, I discovered ABetter Vent Cleaning had a 5 star rating and so I called. Alex returned my call within five minutes of leaving a message, he immediately explained his service and gave me some sound advice. Once we scheduled the appointment, a text message confirming the details was received. Then a call ahead of his arrival time made me realize I was dealing with a professional organization. My vent blower had been rattling and the dryer wasn't drying clothes well and We did not know the cause. After The cleaning was complete we discovered a significant amount of debris in the Vent and blower was causing all the problems. Now my vent and dryer run quietly and efficiently. I would highly recommend Alex and ABetter Vent Cleaning. Great company and a great guy! read more

I called Alex from the referrals on yelp. He gave me a breakdown of his services and the price offered was very fair. He did the chimney cleaning work and then followed up by submitting to me pictures along with an analysis and prices of some other things that needed fixing. He was thorough, timely and did a professional job. They really know their business! read more

Alex was professional and courteous. He called immediately and was able to schedule an appointment immediately, which eased our moving concerns. He performed his work efficiently and kept the house clean while testing. I highly recommend Alex and will call Abetter Vent Cleaning when I return to California. Erich S. read more

My recent experience with ABetter Vent Cleaning is that they are a fast, professional and thorough dryer vent cleaning service. They arrived at the house in the time frame quoted, had all the professional gear required, and had the knowledge and skill to do the job well. The vent was thoroughly vacuumed and scrubbed from the dryer location, located inside the house, to the roof vent, located midway up the top of my Mediterranean-tile roof. At the completion of the work, I was shown photos of the inside of the vent and advised that there was a minor interior depression within the angled section of the vent. Alex suggested that with regular cleaning, this would not present a problem. Since ABetter Vent Cleaning offers a 6-month warranty on their work, they have a real incentive to do the work well the first time; and this level of thoroughness is evident in the manner they go about their work. Before I selected Abetter, I called around and checked on pricing and found that their fees were well in line with most of the other service providers. The difference is that Abetter is a flat-fee service. They also had the gear: a powerful professional 3-motor vacuum ($2,500 to $3,000 to purchase new) and a multi-brush kit, including a spring-loaded brush for moving around angles and fast-connect rods that allow for reversing the rotation - a feature that facilitates thorough vent cleaning. He also had a professional vent-inspection camera that synced with his iPhone. If you add to this his 16 years of vent and chimney cleaning experience, you will find that the do-it-yourself dryer-vent cleaning proposition is simply not worth it! The reason that I decided to hire a professional vent cleaning service was that my 6-year old Maytag dryer stopped heating. I had replaced the thermal fuse on the dryer a year before, with some success, and felt that the vent-cleaning I was doing, with a simple vent cleaning brush, was probably making the situation worst. I decided to replace my dryer with a new Speed Queen, but wanted to be sure that my dryer vent was professionally cleaned before I had it installed. Since our laundry room is located in the center of our house, and access to the roof vent would require getting up on my tile roof, I decided it was time to contact a professional service such as Abetter; and, I am very glad I did. So now, my plan is to have regular vent cleanings, and Abetter Vent Cleaning will be the service I contact first. In conclusion, I would highly recommend Abetter Vent Cleaning as your regular dryer vent cleaning service. read more

Awesome work!! Fast, clean and pretty entertaining to watch all the disgusting gunk cleaned out of my dryer ventilation system. My dryer is 10x hotter now and dries in half the time. THANK YOU!!! read more

Alex did a great job cleanig all the lint & crud out of my 30' long dryer vent. I highly recommend Abetter Vent Cleaning. Thanks Alex

We have a pellet fired fireplace insert in our home, We have had it for 15 plus years all trouble free, untill last winter it developed a problem where it would light and go out after 10 or 15 minutes, It would take several restarts before it would stay lit. I read up on the machine looked at my owners manual cleaned it the best i could and tried different tips to get it working properly again. I came to the conclusion that the problem might be the electronic eye that ( sees ) the flame and feeds the pellets to keep it burning. That being out of my league i decided to find an expert. I called Hennings because they sell pellet fire inserts, they told me that they dont service them anymore and recommended ABetter Vent cleaning. I called them in september before the cold season because i new that they might get too busy when it got cold, i wanted my machine to be working great by winter. I made an appointment with a person i was lead to believe was the owner, i explained to him the problem and told him i thought it might be a dirty or faulty electronic eye, and made an appointment for sept. 24th. when the repair guy Alex showed up i again explained the problem to him and told him what i thought was the culprit the eye. He stated that he wanted to do a stage 2 cleaning ??? and asked me if i was given a price quote i said no and he said ( my boss must be slipping ) he then said the stage 2 cleaning was $299.00 i asked him does that include cleaning the electronic eye? he said no and he was not sure what the cost would be because every machine is different. He then walked over to my machine and pulled it back so we could see behind it right away he said the installation was done wrong and not to code and would all have to be redone he said it wont work right installed like this! im like its been working fine for 15 years. he then said the hopper is full of pellets its going to take me a half an hour to empty it ( the guy on the phone that i made the appointment with could have told me to empty it ) Next thing i know the guy is outside on his cell phone talking to his boss about how much its going to cost to redo the installation. while i waited I cleaned out the hopper of pellets, it took less then 10 minutes. finally he came in and said they would send us a quote to redo it.( I never got it ) I said i still want it working correctly so how much more would it cost to clean and test the electronic eye he said he wouldnt know untill he took the machine apart because there are all different. I had to go to work so i left him there with my wife and i said call me when you know the price. About an hour later my wife calls me to tell me its going to be $500.00 I said thats a lot of money but as long as it gets fixed ill pay for it i also asked her to ask him what he finds out with the electronic eye like is it really dirty or going bad or what? I had left my home at 9:30am i get a call from my wife at 12:00 noon its all done and working fine no parts were used and there was no answer or comment about the eye so i gave them a credit card over the phone the final price $499.00 thats a lot of money for a couple hours of labor ( no discount for me emptying the hopper ) I called the boss the next day because im curious about the condition of the eye he said ill have Alex call you ( never got a call ) fast foward to the first cold day two months later, its California so it wasnt really that cold but i wanted to see how my machine worked i ran it for 30 to 40 minutes it seemed fine but it wasnt untill it got cold enough to use every day thats when i discoverd that it started back to its old trick of shutting down after running for awhile. So i called back talked to the boss, again he told me he would have Alex call me. He did call me this time, i explained to him that the problem was still there, i again asked him about the eye, he said ( i cleaned the machine according to the owners manual ) the one i had showed him when he was there to clean it. Never did i get any kind of an answer as to the condition of the eye. He then told me he would look at the diagram for my machine when he got back to his office to see if he could trace the problem. i never heard back and now i have to restart the machine 3 to 5 times every nite just like before a real pain in the butt. read more

I had a pilot light issue with my fireplace. Alex from Abetter Vent Cleaning indicated that the pilot light needed to be replaced. He said he would order a different brand that had an electronic igniter. He indicated that he would get back to us in a few days. That was the last time we heard from him despite numerous telephone calls to his office. I would not recommend this company. read more

Alex and his helper made a few visits to give some long-overdue maintenance to two fireplaces in the older house I recently bought. My calls were returned promptly and appointments were confirmed in a pleasant way. They cleaned the chimneys and fireplaces thoroughly and were meticulous about containing the dust and dirt. I barely had to clean after they left. One of the fireplaces got more extensive work: new crown damper with spark screen, crown patching, sealing exterior brickwork, patching cracks in the firebox and new ash dump door. I'm not experienced in home repairs but the work seems very competent and the price fair. I appreciated that Alex had the experience to analyze the situation and explain the various options and costs. I'd have no hesitation about using Abetter Vent again. read more

Very professional and knowledgable - what a pleasure to find a company which values its customers and does an excellent job. They were on time and explained each and every step of the process while patiently answering my questions. Clean, competent and thorough. I highly recommend this company. read more

Alex and son Alex did an excellent job cleaning my dryer vent. They were both professional, courteous, and pleasant, completed the job in less than an hour, and cleaned up thoroughly. They vacuumed the vent from the house through to the roof. Then went up on the roof to visually ensure the vent was not blocked. In fact they found a piece of metal mesh embedded 2 1/2 feet down from the roof access that was blocking air flow. They also replaced the flex hose connecting the dryer to the wall, which was crimped, thereby restricting air flow. They used a camera inside the roof vent to be certain the vent was completely clear. I highly recommend this company! read more

They called back quickly and came out next day. Dustin was friendly and efficient. Received discount on second fireplace. Feel much better having the chimneys cleaned!! Will use them again. read more

So glad I called them. Quick response & showed up on time. Did a great job cleaning vent from dryer all the way to the outside vent.

Cleaned my vents and dryer vent. Very professional. Gave me a price upfront and there were no surprise costs halfway through the job. Before they left, they made sure all areas where they were working were clean as though they had not been there. Highly recommend their service, they have the right equipment to do the job right, read more

We hired them due to the positive Yelp reviews. We scheduled for chimney cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. They had availability in the schedule within a few days. They even called to say they were running AHEAD of schedule and could they come early the day of service. They were great, and didn't make a mess in my living room. Laid drop cloth down to clean the chimney. They were also super honest about my dryer and said it actually didn't need cleaning!! They could have faked it and charged me and I wouldn't have known! Super great and professional service. I would highly recommend them, and will definitely use them again the the future. read more

Alex was friendly, quick, informative and his prices were very reasonable. I will definitely use him again for future vent cleanings.
