Dryer Vent Cleaning in Fort Myers, FL
Clogged dryer vents are the #1 cause of residential dryer fires in the U.S. — and Florida's humid air makes lint stick faster and pack tighter than in drier climates. Our dryer vent cleaning removes every bit of lint from the dryer to the exterior wall cap, restores full airflow, and includes a final airflow test so you know it's actually clean.
Bastion Duct Solutions provides air duct and dryer vent cleaning across Fort Myers and the broader Lee County market — Cape Coral, Estero, Bonita Springs, Lehigh Acres, and Sanibel. Post-Hurricane Ian moisture, year-round AC use, and constant Gulf-coast humidity continue to drive mold and biofilm buildup inside Fort Myers ductwork. Every cleaning uses truck-mounted negative-air HEPA vacuums and includes optional EPA-registered antimicrobial fog for storm-affected homes.

Our process in Fort Myers
- Disconnect & Inspect: Pull the dryer out, disconnect the vent, and inspect the full run from dryer to exterior wall cap.
- Brush & Vacuum: Rotating brush head with HEPA vacuum extraction pulls lint from the entire vent — not just the first few feet.
- Clean the Wall Cap: Most dryer fires start at a clogged exterior cap. We clear it and check the flap for damage.
- Airflow Test: We measure airflow before and after so you see the difference in numbers, not just words.
Dryer Vent Cleaning FAQs — Fort Myers
How often should dryer vents be cleaned in Fort Myers?
Annually for most homes. Fort Myers humidity makes lint pack tighter, and many homes have long vent runs that clog faster.
How much does dryer vent cleaning cost?
Our dryer vent cleaning starts at $149 for standard residential setups. Long runs (50ft+), roof vents, or stacked condo units may be slightly more — always quoted up front.
Will you clean the wall cap and the booster fan?
Yes — both included. The exterior cap is where most fires start, and a clogged booster fan defeats the whole system.
Do you service condo or stacked units?
Yes. We handle stacked washer/dryer units and long condo vent runs daily.
