A mile from our shop, in two counties.
In 20151 most houses went up in the 1980s and 90s, the median in 1987; about six in ten homes are single-family and about a quarter are townhouses. A dryer vent in a house that age has handled close to forty years of laundry, and plenty have never been cleaned end to end.
20152 is the South Riding side, in Loudoun County. The houses there are newer, the median one built in 2006, and nearly half are townhouses. A townhouse dryer vent often runs up to the roof or across to the back wall, and a long run like that fills faster than a short one.
Our shop is on Lafayette Center Drive, so a Chantilly dryer vent cleaning is the shortest drive we make. The before and after photos on our dryer vent cleaning page came from a job one county over, in Ashburn.
The two ZIPs sit in two counties, 20151 in Fairfax and 20152 in Loudoun, so they have different fire departments and different permit offices. Neither changes a dryer vent cleaning: no permit, same price, same visit.

What dryer vent cleaning costs in Chantilly.
The same prices as everywhere we work: $299 for dryer vent cleaning on its own, $199 when it’s added to an air duct cleaning, and included every year on the Family Care Plan at $199 a year.
- Dryer vent cleaning, on its own$299
- Dryer vent cleaning, added to an air duct cleaning$199
- Family Care Plan, dryer vent cleaning every year included$199 a year
The price covers the whole dryer vent line, from the back of the dryer to the hood outside, with before and after photos and a dated invoice. Anything past the cleaning, like a new hose or a guard on the hood, you get the price first.
On the Family Care Plan, $199 a year covers the dryer vent cleaning every year, plus a heating inspection, an AC inspection and a whole-home plumbing inspection, and we tell you when each one is due.
When a dryer vent needs cleaning in Chantilly.
You’re on the South Riding side
Nearly half of South Riding is townhouses built around 2006, so a lot of dryer vents there climb through three floors on the way out. Twenty years in, plenty have never been cleaned end to end.
It’s a townhouse dryer vent
A townhouse dryer vent runs a long way to reach the outside, often to the roof or across a ceiling to the back wall. A long run fills faster than a short one, so once a year matters more here.
The house is newer, the dryer vent isn’t clean
A 2005 house has run twenty years of laundry through its dryer vent, often a long run from an upstairs laundry room, and plenty have never been cleaned end to end.
What the fire department says about dryer vents.
Fairfax County
Fairfax County Fire and Rescue tells every household to clean the lint out of the dryer vent pipe once a year, sooner if clothes are taking longer to dry, and to have a gas dryer checked by a professional. Source.
How to pick a dryer vent cleaning company in Chantilly.
Questions to ask anybody who quotes you, us included.
How far away are they?
Dryer vent cleaning is a short visit, so it helps when the crew isn’t driving across the county to reach you. Our shop is on Lafayette Center Drive in Chantilly.
Do they clean the whole line, end to end?
Brushing the first few feet from the laundry room isn’t a dryer vent cleaning. Ask whether they clean from the back of the dryer to the hood outside, and how they get the lint out of the house instead of pushing it further down.
Do they show you the before and after?
Photos of the inside of your dryer vent line, before and after, are how you know the job was done. Ask for them, and for a dated invoice if your HOA wants proof.
What our customers say.
Arrived within an hour on a Sunday morning and provided great service.
Aaron is great ! He explained to me about how they clean the dryer vent, he replaced my old one with a flex type vent duct, he showed me the camera he used to see into the dryer vent. Very professional answered all my questions . Definitely 10 out of 10.
We had Aaron from Swiftpro clean our dryer vent and he did a wonderful job. Arrived on time, was courteous and professional. He found and fixed a problem with the vent attachment at no extra charge. Would recommend highly!

Dryer vent cleaning questions from Chantilly.
Is South Riding covered from Chantilly?
Yes. The mail says Chantilly, the county is Loudoun, and it’s a short drive from the shop. Dryer vent cleaning is the same price on both sides of the county line.
My South Riding townhouse takes two cycles to dry. Is it the dryer vent?
Often, yes. A townhouse dryer vent runs a long way to reach the outside, and a long run fills faster. Go outside while the dryer runs: if the flap barely moves, the line is packed, and that’s a dryer vent cleaning, under an hour in most homes.

Some Northern Virginia HOAs ask for a yearly dryer vent cleaning and a receipt. Check your association’s rules. You get a dated invoice and before and after photos to send them.
