Professional Dryer Vent Cleaning — GTA & Ontario
Clogged dryer vents are the leading cause of dryer fires in Ontario homes. LintGuard's certified technicians clean your entire exhaust duct system — from the lint trap to the exterior vent cap — restoring safe airflow and cutting drying time by up to 40%.
According to the Ontario Fire Marshal, dryer fires cause over $35 million in property damage annually in Canada. Most are preventable with annual vent cleaning.

What We Do
From routine annual cleanings to emergency blockage removal, LintGuard covers every aspect of dryer exhaust system maintenance for Ontario homeowners and property managers.
Complete removal of lint, debris, and blockages from your entire exhaust duct — from the dryer connection point through to the exterior vent cap. Restores full airflow and eliminates fire risk.
Includes inspection, cleaning, and a post-service airflow test.
Using a flexible inspection camera, our technicians identify crushed ducts, improper vent materials (like foil accordion hose), bird nests, and other hidden hazards inside your dryer exhaust system.
Recommended annually or when drying times increase noticeably.
If your dryer vent runs too long, has too many bends, or uses non-compliant materials, we reroute or replace the ductwork to meet Ontario Building Code standards and manufacturer specifications.
Rigid metal duct installation available for maximum airflow efficiency.
Installing a dryer in a new home or renovation? We ensure your exhaust duct is correctly sized, routed, and terminated at the exterior wall with a proper louvred vent cap — not a bird screen.
Compliant with Ontario Building Code Section 9.32.
We service apartment complexes, condominiums, and townhouse developments across the GTA. Bulk scheduling available for property managers needing multiple units serviced in a single visit.
Flexible scheduling for minimal tenant disruption.
Dryer overheating, shutting off mid-cycle, or producing a burning smell? These are signs of a severely blocked vent. We offer same-day emergency service across the GTA and surrounding cities.

The Facts
A clogged dryer exhaust duct is one of the most overlooked fire hazards in Canadian homes. The lint that accumulates inside your ductwork is highly flammable — and it builds up with every load of laundry.

The Ontario Fire Marshal and most appliance manufacturers recommend cleaning your dryer vent at least once per year for average households. Families with pets, large loads, or gas dryers should consider cleaning every 6 months. Condos and apartments with long duct runs (over 25 feet) may require more frequent service.
Lint accumulation restricts airflow, forcing the dryer to work harder and run hotter. This overheats the heating element, damages the motor, and — most critically — creates a fire hazard. Blocked vents are responsible for over 90% of dryer-related fires in residential buildings.
Most Canadian home insurance policies do not cover fire damage caused by a lack of maintenance. If an adjuster determines your dryer fire resulted from a neglected vent, your claim may be denied. Annual cleaning creates a documented maintenance record that protects your coverage.

A professional cleaning takes 45–90 minutes from arrival to completion. Here is exactly what to expect.

We clean the entire exhaust pathway: dryer transition hose, rigid ductwork, wall cavity sections, and the exterior vent cap. Lint and debris are fully removed and contained.
After cleaning, we run an airflow test to confirm full duct clearance. You receive a brief service report noting duct length, any issues found, and our next recommended service date.
Dryer vent cleaning in Ontario typically costs $89–$179 depending on duct length and accessibility. LintGuard charges a single flat rate with no hidden fees. We quote before we start — always.
