Whole-system duct and dryer vent check with before-and-after photos - you see exactly what came out of your vents
That "$99 whole-house special" is a bait ad - the real number appears once they are in your hallway, or the "clean" is a shop-vac at the register. We photograph the inside of your ducts before and after instead.

AfterFast, Reliable Dryer Vent Cleaning Across Brooklyn
Dryer vent cleaning in Brooklyn typically runs $150-$350 for a standard residential system, with most single-family jobs completed in 90 minutes. For the attached rowhouses, co-ops, and converted brownstones that define Brooklyn’s housing stock, the real challenge isn’t just removing lint - it’s reaching the full pathway when vents run through shared joist cavities, stacked laundry rooms, or retrofitted chases never designed for modern equipment.
We’ve been cleaning dryer vents across Brooklyn since 2005, from the pre-war brick homes of Bay Ridge and Canarsie to the renovated brownstones of Bed-Stuy and Crown Heights. Our crews coordinate dispatch from our Cleveland office and carry the inspection cameras, agitation tools, and HEPA-contained Nikro vacuums needed for jobs where access is tight and the lint pathway crosses property lines. If your dryer takes two cycles, smells hot, or hasn’t been serviced since you moved in, call (323) 918-4345 - we’ll give you a written price before any work starts.
Why Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning Is Brooklyn’s Preferred Dryer Vent Cleaning Company
Brooklyn homeowners call us back because we treat their buildings like the complex systems they are. A dryer vent in a Park Slope brownstone isn’t the same animal as one in a Marine Park ranch, and our technicians know the difference before they ring the bell.
We’re part of the Cedarwell family of independently owned companies, and every visit follows the Cedarwell Care Promise: background-checked, uniformed technicians; shoe covers and drop cloths from the moment we walk in; quiet tools when there’s a toddler down the hall; and a photo of the clean-up before we leave. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is stamped on every job - if it’s not right, we make it right.
Our Dryer Vent Cleaning team carries professional-grade Rotobrush and Nikro equipment, not rental-shop gear, and a live person answers the phone 24/7. No chatbot, no voicemail maze.
Dryer Vent Inspection in Brooklyn
Dryer Vent Inspection in Brooklyn is where every job should start, especially in buildings where the vent run is hidden inside floor joists, shared chases, or retrofitted closet cavities. We use a high-resolution camera to map the full lint pathway, identify blockages, check for damaged or disconnected seams, and determine whether the run meets current safety clearances before we quote any cleaning work. A typical residential inspection in Brooklyn runs $89-$150, with the fee credited toward cleaning if you proceed.
Camera Mapping in Shared Rowhouse Chases
In Bed-Stuy and Crown Heights, we regularly find dryer exhaust routed through floor-joist cavities that cross into neighboring units. The camera shows us exactly where the lint is packed, where the run transitions, and which access points we’ll need to coordinate with other tenants or owners.
Post-Sandy Moisture Assessment
Below-grade laundry setups in Red Hook and Canarsie often sit in spaces affected by Hurricane Sandy’s surge. Our inspection checks for mold colonization in the surrounding air handler or chase - because cleaning a vent without addressing ambient moisture just re-seeds the problem within a season.
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Brooklyn
Commercial Dryer Vent Cleaning in Brooklyn covers the stacked laundry rooms, co-op basements, and multi-unit buildings where a single vent system serves dozens of dryers across multiple floors. These jobs require scheduled access coordination, larger Nikro HEPA vacuums, and often after-hours scheduling to avoid disrupting residents. Pricing starts around $400 for small multi-family buildings and scales based on dryer count, story height, and access complexity.
Co-op and Condo Scheduling
We work with building management to secure service-elevator access, coordinate with superintendents, and schedule around doorman shifts. Our crew arrives with a written scope and price approved by the board before any equipment enters the building.
High-Rise and Rooftop Access
Many Brooklyn multi-family buildings terminate vents at roof level. We carry the ladder systems and safety gear for rooftop cleanouts, and we document the work with photos for building records.
Trusted Brands We Service in Brooklyn
We clean and service dryer vent systems connected to all major appliance brands, and we stock common replacement caps, transitions, and bird guards for Brooklyn customers to avoid supply delays. Our trucks carry Nikro HEPA containment equipment, Honeywell airflow meters for post-clean verification, and Aprilaire humidity sensors where moisture monitoring is needed. For vent repairs and rerouting in older Brooklyn housing, we source Abatement Technologies fittings that match non-standard dimensions found in pre-1940 buildings. Parts on the truck mean faster turnaround and fewer return visits.
Common Dryer Vent Cleaning Problems We See in Brooklyn Homes
- Shared joist cavities in Bed-Stuy and Crown Heights rowhouses. Dryer exhaust frequently runs through floor-joist chases that cross property lines, so a single crew often can’t physically reach the full lint pathway without coordinating access with multiple tenants or owners.
- Original 1945-1965 sheet-metal runs in Bay Ridge, Canarsie, Flatlands, and Marine Park. These post-war attached homes carry decades of rusted internal seams and no cleanout ports, so full source removal requires cutting in access points that didn’t exist when the house was built.
- Below-grade humidity in Red Hook and Canarsie converted basements. Brooklyn’s peninsular geography drives persistently high summer humidity, and Sandy-era flooding left mold-friendly conditions in thousands of below-grade air handlers. Cleaning the vent without addressing the surrounding moisture environment is temporary at best.
- Cramped retrofits in brownstone conversions. Gut renovations packed forced-air and dryer systems into floor cavities and closet chases never engineered for them, producing sharp bends and restricted airflow that accelerates lint accumulation far faster than suburban purpose-built systems.
Pricing for Dryer Vent Cleaning in Brooklyn, OH
Most Brooklyn homeowners pay between $150 and $350 for a complete residential dryer vent cleaning. Simple single-story runs with accessible exterior terminations fall at the lower end. Jobs in brownstone retrofits with shared chases, multi-unit coordination, or required camera inspection before cleaning run toward the higher end. Commercial multi-family buildings start around $400 and scale with dryer count and access complexity.

FAQs About Dryer Vent Cleaning in Brooklyn
Yes, but it usually requires coordinating access with the adjacent unit or owner first. We start with a camera inspection to map exactly where the lint is packed and which access points we need. Then we work with you and your neighbors to schedule entry, always with a written scope and price before any work begins. Call (323) 918-4345 to set up the initial inspection.
Clothes taking longer than one cycle to dry, a hot or humid laundry room, and a burning smell are the three most common signs. We also see lint blowing back into the room from a poorly sealed transition, which means the exhaust path is blocked somewhere downstream. A camera inspection confirms what the trap can’t show you. Call (323) 918-4345 and we’ll check it.
Yes. We clean stacked systems in co-op basements and multi-unit laundry rooms, with scheduling coordinated through building management. Our crew arrives with board-approved scope, uses service elevators per building protocol, and provides photos for superintendent records. Pricing starts around $400 for smaller buildings. Call (323) 918-4345 to discuss your building’s setup.
Yes. Brooklyn’s summer humidity, especially in below-grade laundry spaces, causes lint to clump and adhere to duct walls more aggressively than in drier inland climates. Combined with the restricted airflow from retrofitted brownstone chases, vents here often need cleaning every 12-18 months rather than the 2-3 year interval typical of suburban homes with straight, purpose-built runs. Call (323) 918-4345 to assess your specific system.
We need legal parking within reasonable hose reach of the building, or access to a loading zone if your building has one. Inside, we lay drop cloths and wear shoe covers from entry to exit. The work itself involves camera inspection, agitation with Rotobrush tools under Nikro HEPA vacuum containment, and airflow verification with a Honeywell meter. Most single-family jobs take 90 minutes. We leave a photo of the clean space and our written price before we arrived. Call (323) 918-4345 to book.
