We hired James based on the recommendation of my in-laws. We were not disappointed in the least. James and Mack were professional and courteous throughout their visit. They recommend replacing our dryer vent connector (aluminum tube) as the one we bought from Lowe's was a fire hazard. They performed their work quickly, thoroughly, and with minimal intrusion. I would happily recommend them to friends and family and will hire them again. read more

Our brand new dryer was taking multiple cycles to dry small loads of clothing and on top of that was making our laundry room feel very humid. We scheduled an appointment with better dryer vent all online- which was awesome. Our appointment was confirmed, and we recieved a couple text messages for awareness as well. Once here Jordan was extremely professional- he shared pricing up front and didn't try to oversell me anything. He showed me a video of all the lint that was coming out of our dryer duct- it was real bad. Now I feel so much better knowing that things are cleaned out and our dryer is running like a dream!! I will be calling them again!! read more

I picked Better Dryer Vent Co because of the Yelp reviews. I called and set up an appointment. James showed up on time and cleaned out our totally clogged vent. Good service. Very polite. These are the kind of Austin businesses I love to support. read more

Very responsive. Figured out the problem quickly, and got everything all cleaned out and hooked back up right. Shout out for Jordan for providing great service! read more

Fast scheduling, fast service performed, friendly and professional technician. He was very helpful in educating us about how venting works, the risks and how often vents should be cleaned. No complaints whatsoever and would recommend to anyone. read more

I called this company to get my dryer vent checked. James came over the same day, and because of issue with the design of this vent he spent extended time inspecting and vacuuming the thing, diagnosed a flaw in the designed, decided to back out some of what he had done. Very honest and hard at work, good pricing. They won a customer for sure. Highly recommended! read more

Very professional service...and efficient. I wish I remembered the employee's name, but this work was done months ago. I appreciated how respectful he was and how he kept me well-informed on my options and the benefits I could expect to see. I would highly recommend this business. read more

James has expanded his business and now services Austin and San Antonio. The new company name provides more generic appeal, allowing his expansion into new markets. As a repeat customer, I can say the customer service is still top notch, and I highly recommend their services. read more

In mid-March I contracted with Better Dryer Vent Cleaning to remove lint from the exhaust vent. To my amazement, a lot of lint had accumulated in the dryer exhaust vent. David was timely and professional. He texted me in advance of his arrival to let me know he expected to be on time. Also, he removed two small bird nests from inside the vent. He convinced me that I needed to buy a vent cover from him. Initially, I thought the cost to be rather high, but after seeing the end result and the quality of cover I gladly paid. Highly recommend this service! Ed H. read more

What a great experience! I never knew dryer vents had to be cleaned out, but when my dryer wasn't drying our clothes, I was told that this might be the cause. I contacted James yesterday and he came out today. He's upfront about pricing from the get-go and knows his stuff. Now that I have discovered the dryer vent, I will call on James every couple of years. Thanks, James! It was so good to find you! read more

Showed up on time. Cleaned everything until the rods went outside the external vents and cleaned up all the mess inside. The technician put everything back where it was. They also replaced 2 dryer vents that were apparently fire hazards. On a side note the dryer vent they installed does not heat up the space as much as the other ones that they replaced - that makes it worth the cost to change them to me. Excellent work - will use them again. read more

Nice guys that came on time and helped fix our super clogged dryer vent which was a huge fire hazard before. They even installed a new dryer hose for free to help with the efficiency of my dryer for lower electric bills. Have used this crew twice now and I've been pleased both times. read more

Our dryer just recently started smelling like death warmed over, so I jumped on Yelp to research local vent cleaners and found the highly-rated ATX Dryer Vent Cleaning service. I emailed James on Monday and made an appointment for Tuesday. He arrived today, assessed the situation and went to work. Turns out we had an old bird's nest in our outer vent, plus two dead birds. Yuck. He cleaned out the vent, removed the nest and the cadavers, and vacuumed out about two gallons of nasty, old dryer lint. Adios, fire hazard! He did notice that our old hose from the dryer to the wall was partially crushed so he sold me on replacing it with a new rigid one. And just a couple hours later, our laundry room smells wayyyyyy better than it did a few days ago (just ignore the cat's litter box). He'll email me the info for the part that I need to get from Home Depot/Lowe's to cover the dryer vent on the outside of the house. Our home needs the larger 6" over-sized cover, or else James could have sold me and installed a standard 4" one. All in all, James is a pro at his job and well worth the cost. Friendly, courteous, efficient and prompt = five stars in my book. Give him a holler for all your dryer vent needs in the ATX! read more

Excellent service. James came out the day after I contacted him. He was extremely courteous and explained all of my options. I feel much safer knowing my dryer is now lint free. read more

Saw the reviews on Yelp for these guys. Called on Monday and James came out today (Wednesday.) The vent on our roof was completely clogged because an exterminator put mesh around it (code violation) and 5 years later there was no air getting in or out. James cleaned it all out, then snaked the vent from the laundry room up to the roof, cleaned it all out, hooked up our dryer, and left the entire area cleaner than before he got there. I highly recommend this company. read more

Had them come out again because my dryer booster was making loud noises and vibrating. Jordan was here for 2 hours and cleaned everything out. No more noise or vibrations. Will have them back in a year to clean out again. read more

This was the second time I've used ATX Dryer Vent cleaning. James has always been on time. He calls back promptly and is good at explaining what you need. Did the work quickly and my dryer is drying faster again. I'll use him every year. read more

Just talked to James and he was incredibly helpful and kind to me regarding an issue that has nothing to do with his company or services. Can't vouch for this company's services but dang he was sure helpful and knowledgeable and I'd hire him in a heartbeat read more

My dryer started making a clanking sound and had always taken a long time to dry a load. I figured that since the dryer was going to be pulled out for the appliance repair tech, I probably should consider cleaning vent (mine exits vertically through the roof). I'd been in my house 12 years without having it cleaned, and who knows what the previous owners did?!?! Turns out the exhaust pipe was almost entirely blocked! James did a great job cleaning it out and ensuring good airflow when he was done. I can't wait to do my next load of laundry and see how much faster the clothes dry! I'm also happy to know that I no longer have this huge fire hazard lurking in my utility room wall and attic! I definitely recommend ATX Dryer Vent Cleaning and have shared my great experience with several co-workers. read more

Mack showed up right on time and did the work quickly. He was friendly and made the process totally painless. After reading the bad reviews of other dryer vent cleaning companies, I was a little skeptical about how good this company could be. But it was amazing and I would definitely recommend this company to everyone I know. read more

I had to have a new dryer vent installed for my electric washer/dryer combo. It cost me $487-[!!], and they left an extra hole in the wall that I now have to patch. So, what, they screw up and now I have to pay someone to come out and patch the hole, which they covered up with duct tape? I would have been much happier if they knocked off $ to cover a drywall patchman to come out.The estimate I have on that is $125, which includes painting the patch after it is repaired. -update...they covered the repair on my drywall hole, and were prompt and courteous. read more

Thanks to James for being very prompt via an email inquiry and showed up exactly when he said he would. Identified the issue and make improvements that should avoid the issue down the line! Highly recommended and he's local! read more

I sent an email to make an appointment on a Thursday evening and received a response quickly and set it up for Saturday. James called ahead to let me know he was about half an hour away and he arrived a few minutes early. He was very professional and set up to clean my dryer vent quickly and efficiently. Along the way he discovered an issue that turned out to be a problem with my ducting that needs to be addressed with my builder. James wasn't able to complete the cleaning properly because of the problem with my ducting and only charged me a partial fee. The service I did receive was extremely thorough and James went above and beyond to help me identify the problem with my dryer duct and even offered to help me with my builder. I was very satisfied with the service provided and will not hesitate to have my future dryer duct cleaning done by ATX. read more

We called ATX Dryer Vent to remove a dead bird from our laundry room vent recently. They were easy to reach and scheduling was quick as well. The tech was punctual, friendly, and professional and recommended replacing the vent covers with magnetic traps/covers to keep this from happening again. As as a Realtor in the area, I will be recommending ATX Dryer Vent to clients and friends in the future! read more

We had an appointment with David from Better Dryer Vent Co and were very happy. He was very knowledgable, nice and thorough. We would definitely recommend the company for anyone needing these services. read more

We had Better Dryer Vent Cleaning out last Friday and were still having a few issues with our dryer over the weekend. We gave them a call this morning and, although their schedule was booked, the owner, James, made a special trip out to our house today. He went above and beyond the typical cleaning to help us solve the problem and did not charge us for his work today. And the best news is that our dryer is working again! We highly recommend this company! read more

i do not recommend this sr garcia, they do not respond to the compliance with the guarantee, it has been a terrible experience buying the refrigerator with the, does not work and have had to return multiple occasions to the workshop. i do not recommend it, run as fast as you can from that place. read more

We called and Jordan Garcia came out to work on the dryer Time frame given was 9-11 AM the next day He called to let us know he was coming arriving at 10 AM He was very professional and was done in an hour. We are very pleased with his professionalism and the job he did.We would highly recommend Better Dryer Vent Co. Jean & Doug Lackey read more

James from Better Dryer Vent Cleaning is FANTASTIC! I have had numerous people come and "clean" our dryer duct work and there has never been any improvements, until James came by. Before James cleaned the duct, it would take over 3 hours for a load of laundry to dry... 3 HOURS! Now, our clothes dry in 45 minutes (1 cycle on our dryer). James was able to successfully snake the entire length of the vent and even showed us that the snake made it through all the way. He even replaced our vent hose. He was very professional and provided an excellent service. I would HIGHLY recommend them if you are in need of someone to clean out your dryer vent. read more

I had a different experience than the others who posted. Two men came to my door, no phone call ahead of time. They had no name tags and never told me their names. They did the work but I was quoted $99 on the phone and when they left the bill was $700!!!! I feel I got taken advantage of and the prices are insanely high. I will not be using them in the future. read more

After being recommended by Patriot Appliance Repair (a great company), we scheduled a cleaning for our dryer vent. The communication (email) was spot on with confirming the appointment and getting receipts. James was right on time and didn't waste a minute from start to finish. Of course, like most/all of us, we really needed the vent to be cleaned out. It's a safety (fire hazard) issue after all. But after cleaning it out, James informed us that whomever built our house did a real number on the exhaust through the attic and roof -- several turns, long stretches of vent pipe, etc. It was never going to be good for the heat and lint ... behind the 8-ball from day one that the house was built 30 years ago. Upon his suggestion, we had him return a couple days later to re-route the vent tube and put in a new (proper) roof vent. It's nice knowing that our problem has been solved and that we simply need to clean out the lint accordingly. And guess what -- our new-ish dryer now dries a full load in the proper amount of time; no more turning it on for another entire cycle. Call James -- you won't regret it. read more

Great honest service. Also does upgrades to vents to keep critters out. Very polite and can do everything from outside the house.

James was on time and was very knowledgeable about my dryer vent situation. My dryer repairman showed me 2 outside vents for the dryer; well, he was completely wrong and James showed me the actual vent. He knows what he's doing. I recommend this company. read more

David was very prompt and professional. He cleaned our dryer vent and was able to diagnose several issues with our dryer vent system and correct them during the same visit. We are very pleased with Better Dryer Vent Cleaning and will recommend them as well as use their service again. read more

We moved into our home about a year ago and became concerned about our dryer vent due to some clothes drying issues. Our dryer vent went up thru our attic to the roof of our home - which made us even more concerned. We called ATX and out came one of their dryer vent service technicians - James. We told him we had no idea how long it had been since the vent had been cleaned. Once James got in out attic and took a look (along with pictures) he told us it had obviously been a LONG time! We were shocked after looking at the photos - terribly clogged. James did a fabulous job of getting them sparkling clean!!. I put ATX AND James at the TOP of our list when we go for our next cleaning in a couple of years!!!! Outstanding service! Bob. D. read more

James came out and cleaned the tube and educated me how to fix the rusted vent cover. He told me where to go in Lowe's to get the materials. I'm giving them 5 stars because even though there was a misunderstanding about the price quoted on the phone, he honored the quoted price. He also replaced my flammable connector between the dryer and the wall. On time and no hassles. And the dryer worked great afterwards. read more

Excellent service and fair price for cleaning the dryer vent and the back of the dryer. The owner (James) personally does nearly all of the work and that's a plus in my book every time. Very professional and efficient and did the job thoroughly and quickly. Highly recommend! Dryer vents should be cleaned at least once every three years or so minimum. read more

I called ATX Dryer Vent Cleaning yesterday and David was able to come out the next day. He called about an hour ahead of his appointment time confirming his arrival, was on time and completed the cleaning in about 45 minutes. David also recommended I change out the vent hose I had on my dryer as the type was found to be a fire hazard, which I had him do as well. He also set up a reminder email so next year I won't need to remember to keep this on my things to do list. Great service, honest and dependable. read more

Outstanding experience from first contact through conclusion of services. Easy to schedule, expert/thorough service and great communication throughout. We'll be repeat customers and have already recommended to our entire neighborhood (Community Facebook page). read more

Just moved into a new house and called James at ATX Dryer Vent Cleaning after we noticed that it took 2-3 cycles to dry laundry. James was able to come to the house the next day--he was prompt, very knowledgable, and took the time to explain exactly what was going on with the duct. Also, James was very friendly and had our best interest in mind. We had a massive amount of lint in our duct AND a screen was blocking airflow to the outside (which was a major code violation) . In short, a house fire was imminent if the vent had not been cleaned. Thanks to James, we are able to use our dryer now; he saved us from a potential catastrophe. Highly recommended! read more
