An Interesting Job Order For Dryer Vent Cleaning & Dryer Vent Repair In Irvine

We received a call from a customer yesterday saying she noticed over a couple of weeks many cockroaches come from the laundry room area. And more in particular, the seem to come out of the dryer vent. Therefore, she decided to call a professional dryer vent cleaning service to inspect and clean the dryer vent from any cockroach colony.

We know the story already sounds appetizing, but wait, it gets better.

Dryer Vent Repair & Dryer Vent Extension Hose Replacement

As we arrive and inspect the dryer vent situation, we right away discovered the extension hose has two holes in it. We realized the holes must allow free access to the cockroaches in and out. Moreover, if the dryer vent has built up lint, it could be a perfect hiding spot for the cockroaches, plus having the constant humidity they love so much.

After we performed a few more test, we found a big gap right underneath the dryer vent connection in the wall that allow the cockroaches to crawl in from. We are very thankful for the detailed dryer vent inspection steps we take in order to assure highest satisfaction, because this hole was impossible to discover just by working on the vent.

Therefore, we filled up the hole and sealed it so not cockroaches or rodents can come through it. In addition, we replaced the extension hose and all that was left is making sure the dryer vent is also clear and safe to use.

Dryer Vent Cleaning & Rodent Droppings

After cleaning the vent that was extremely built up with lint, we discovered cockroaches dropping of course, but more so, we discovered rodent droppings as well. We cleaned the dryer vent thoroughly, and we made sure the outside fitting is safe and rodents cant not crawl in there.
