Dryer Vent Nest & Obstruction Removal

Controlled removal of inactive nesting material, lint plugs, or other heavy blockage from a dryer exhaust pathway. Standard accessible removal is $99 when added to a service visit.

What to expect

We confirm the blockage with a visual inspection, or by using a borescope. We remove and capture it to the nearest access point. If a cleaning was also requested, we follow up with a full service.

Signs you may need this service

Nesting material, lint, or debris protrudes from the exterior hood

The exterior damper is blocked or cannot close

Airflow drops suddenly or the dryer takes much longer

Bird or pest activity has occurred at the dryer vent termination

How it works

1. Confirm the obstruction is inactive and safe to handle · 2. Locate it and choose the nearest controlled retrieval direction · 3. Remove and capture the material without pushing it deeper · 4. Verify the pathway, check performance, and document the next step

Why it matters

An obstruction restricts airflow, which lowers dryer performance and adds wear on the appliance over time. Heavy blockages also raise the risk of trapped heat and moisture, so they're worth addressing promptly rather than waiting.

Pricing & important details

Pricing: accessible inactive nest or substantial debris removal is $99 when added to a service visit. When the remaining vent also needs cleaning, posted cleaning rates apply: $149 for normal-access side-wall service, $199 for second-story access, or $249 for a safely serviceable roof termination. Hood or duct repairs are separate and do not begin without approval. We do not remove blockages involving live wildlife, active nests, eggs, protected species, or biological contamination.

Serving Greenville, Greer, Taylors, Travelers Rest, Easley, Pickens, Powdersville, Mauldin, Five Forks, Simpsonville, Piedmont, and nearby Upstate communities.
