Residential Lint Screen and Dryer Lint Trap Cleaning in Durham, NC

A clean lint screen and dryer lint trap play a crucial role in maintaining safe airflow inside your dryer, but over time, lint, oils from fabric softeners, and fine particles can build up in areas homeowners can’t easily reach. This buildup restricts airflow, reduces drying efficiency, and increases the risk of overheating. Even when you clean the lint screen regularly, residue inside the trap housing can remain, gradually accumulating until it begins to affect dryer performance. For many homes in Durham, NC, this hidden buildup becomes a problem long before it’s noticeable.

Our technicians use professional tools to remove trapped lint, scrub away residue, and clear blockages deep within the trap housing. This detailed cleaning helps your dryer run more efficiently, prevents overheating, and improves overall system performance. Whether your dryer is newer, older, or heavily used, proper lint trap maintenance is essential for protecting your home and ensuring long-term reliability.
