We initially thought our dryer was the problem and replaced it. After our second dryer was having the same issue we looked into having our vent cleaned. Lint Bandits did a great job removing years of lint from our vent. It was damp inside the vent and they even came back to flush things out once the vent had dried. This is a fantastic service and we really appreciate the extra effort. Our dryer is working much better and we are not having to spend multiple cycles trying to dry our clothes. Thank you to Fred and the entire team at Lint Bandits. You guys rock! read more

I soooooooooo, want give these guys a 5 Star rating because they are awesome. On time, respectful, professional, efficient, successfully completed the job - you name it, they did it......except for a complete clean up, inside and out. The lint they pulled and a little debris was left in my driveway. I had to ask for them to sweep up the lint in my hallway, they obliged but didn't finish the sweeping in the laundry-room. Again, aside from the cleaning, the team was fantastic. Even fixed the piping issue from my dryer to the wall. So this isn't a complaint just a wish for the next time I call them out. They will get my business again. read more

Absolutely would recommend. Prompt, thorough, affordable and courteous team. Thank you!

Doug is reliable. He came out and provided a quotation in a timely manner (next day) and provide a quote. He's a good guy and I went with him to do my work as I need a inspection and preventative maintenance to make sure birds are not nesting somewhere on my house. His team came out and did a very through job to clean up and remove the mess that the birds created (poop on the walls, in the gutter, and a nest). Overall - great job. read more

Doug's staff came earlier than scheduled, and both went right to work. It was a two-men job since my dryer vent goes out and up to the roof. It took about 30 minutes for them to clean and brush the vents. The reason I called for the cleaning was due to the clunking sound from the dryer. After the cleaning, no more clunking sound. I was more nervous for the guy who has to climb up the roof...I didn't expect that one. Overall, great job. read more

Saved me from needlessly buying a new dryer. You folks did a SUPER job cleaning out my laundry vent. I am so grateful for your quick attention for my plight. My dryer had stopped drying... I had not EVER had the dryer vent lint cleaned out. I didn't even know where my vents were on the outside. As soon as I saw my vent exit I called you folks Lint Extractors...there was lint actually visibly just jammed in there. After you cleaned, my old dryer worked, and I cancelled the dryer order that would have come in two days. read more

We have used Lint Dandits once and it was a great experience. Doug, the owner, was super responsive to my on-line request and in follow up phone calls. We have a stack-able washer/dryer unit that had not been cleaned out in 6+ years. To make it even more challenging we live in a townhouse that makes getting to the dryer and dryer vent system a challenge. Doug's team used 20 feet of extension tools to clean out our long vent system. They also utilized a dual action vacuum to clean out and then clear out our dryer vent system. FYI -- our dryer is effectively using the sensor setting again and clothes are once again being completely dry with 30 minutes. read more

Excellent job done by this company. They were very nice and professional. I would definitely recommend them! Thank you for a job well done!

Jimmy and Fred made my day. They cleaned out all of my air ducts and my dryer vent. My dryer vent was an accident waiting to happen and thanks to my electrician from GENTEC Services alerting me to the problem, a disaster was averted. I am extremely happy with the work they did and the cleanup afterwards. Also, the price was reasonable for the services they provided. Great service and great staff. Thanks guys for a job well done....... Will be keeping them in mind for future work...... read more

It is said the Dryer Vent is the biggest fire hazard in your home and lately it's been weighing heavy on my mind that this could be a bad situation in our home. My vent go up to the roof, and because of an second story addition the dryer vent has 3 right angles in it. Over the years I've tried to keep it clean with a shop-vac but I wasn't sure I was doing a good enough job. So - I decided to look for a professional to clean this system really well and give me some peace of mind. I found Lint Bandits here on Yelp and called to make an appointment. The Team showed up with-in the scheduled hour time slot (always a good sign when they call you from the road to provide an ETA and then meet it ). The team that came to clean my vent were courteous and worked quickly and efficiently. And though my vent wasn't as bad as I feared - I now have peace of mind that it's cleaned out really well and that the next heavy load of towels isn't going to spell disaster. Thanks Lint Bandits! read more

They came, they saw, the stole my lint. Clearly the dryer vent had never been cleaned since the house was built in 2006. We moved in about 2 months ago and bought a new dryer with fancy sensors that kept saying the vent was not clear so we finally called around to get a company out especially once we discovered it was vented to the roof and therefore we could not do even a general minor clean out if we wanted to (2 story house, tall roof line). While Lint Bandits is not the least expensive of the companies we chatted with, they were the most professional and pro active with our concerns about the dryer vent and HVAC duct work (we did not have the duct work done at this time, but may later). Doug talked me through the process and made me feel good about using his company. They arrived, got right to work, showed me the VERY clogged up cap before cleaning it up and brush vacuumed the line. The dryer works far more efficiently now! It was very quick, clean, and easy. They have other lines of business that I will for sure consider in the future for cleaning our HVAC duct work and our solar panels. read more

I was referred to Doug through an appliance repair service when I complained that my dryer was not working, and they suggested that my dryer vent may need clearing. He and his assistant arrived early. He was very helpful in locating my dryer vent exhaust on the roof. He also noted that my rigid dryer exhaust hose was prone to kinks and blockages, and offered to replace it with a flexible vinyl hose, for a very reasonable price. read more

Placing my hand under the exterior dryer vent, I thought the air was moving well. Did note the little bits of lint on the ground. The problem was that our clothes were taking multiple cycles to dry. Was it the dryer? Was it too much lint in the dryer vent? It was a whole lot cheaper to have the dryer vent cleaned so I made an appointment. The team of two guys wasted no time and had the vent cleaned out in very little time. They showed me all the lint that came out. Holey moley! Laundry now dries quicker. Checking the air flow again, I felt a much more robust flow. So glad I had this done. Good work, guys! read more

Called Lint Bandits to do a maintenance vent cleaning - I had no issues with the dryer but the vents need to be cleaned - which I do every year or so. I was at work when they performed the service - I was quite dismayed when I came home and found they had left a rather large mess. I have rugs in front of the dryer and they were a mess! Piles of lint, foot prints, they completely filled my garbage can with the old materials - I felt inside the lint trap and it still had lint in it - it didn't appear to be clean at all. It took about 30 minutes to clean the mess - which isn't much but after you've worked all day, it's not very pleasant to come home to such a mess. I was further dismayed when my dyer didn't work. The day after the service we did laundry only to have the dyer not work - it no longer heated. When I called them, I was told it was just a coincident - they didn't do anything to make it stop working! Fairly big coincidence that it worked fine on Sunday, had the service done Monday and Tuesday it no longer worked. What is most upsetting is the lack of responsibility - No credit for the money I paid them (which I shouldn't have paid them until I tested the dyer), no apologize - nothing! I would never use or recommend this company! read more

Disclaimer- I didn't actually use their services, but they still get 5 stars and if I do need services, I would call them. Here's why: After doing a search on yelp for dryer vent cleaning (had no idea who to call), I contacted them to schedule a cleaning (it was taking 80 minutes to dry clothes). Doug answered the phone, very friendly, explained clearly the process of what they would do, and I was able to book an appointment for the same day! He even gave me a Yelp discount! When I asked if I needed my landlord's permission (we just recently moved in), he said this was something usually done by landlords, not the tenants. He suggested I ask my landlord to cover the cost. So I booked the appointment and called to ask the property manager if they would cover the cost. They ended up telling me they would use their own worker to clean the vent. I called Doug back to cancel the appointment. He was very understanding and even gave me some helpful tips to make sure the worker cleaned my vents properly! I wish I could have used Doug's company since he would've been able to send his team out the same day, but he saved me some money, since the owner is now doing it. I just have to wait a week or two until their worker is available...... Anyway, friendly guy, honest (didn't have to save me money or give me advice), and didn't give me any attitude when I called back to cancel. If I do need dryer vent cleaning services in the future, I know who to call. read more

We moved to a new house and of course our new dryer wouldn't work! So, being new to the house, we weren't sure what was the problem - dryer, hose, vent, or the exit point of the vent. In fact we couldn't even locate the vent exit! Called Doug after reading Yelp reviews and he explained exactly what he thought it could be because he was familiar with my neighborhood. Excellent! His team showed up promptly, were great about removing shoes while in the house, and cleaning up after they were done in the laundry room. Our vent exited on the roof - should've seen that! The tech went up the roof and found the blockage, showed me the damage and cleaned it up. Dryer works like a charm since then. Overall a great experience and I would definitely recommend Doug to anyone. I plan to use them for gutter cleaning in the near future as well. read more

I always use Lint Bandits to clean our dryer vent because of the quality work they do. The personnel are also very friendly, courteous, and careful when moving the dryer and putting it back ion place. The owner is very professional and does a followup telephone call to be sure you are pleased with the service. Now, that's showing some class as a business owner. Highly recommend Lint Bandits. read more

These guys are fantastic we have been at our work location for over 20years, they keep our vents clean & clear! If it wasn't for Fred, being the through operator that he is! We would have had a fire, he's the only one that took the time to evaluate the entire system keeping us fire free! Mary Maloney read more

They helped us with our dryer vents.. Extremely professional and nice to work with.. They came at a moments notice and did a great job, we highly recommend them. read more

Our dryer was taking over two hours to dry clothes. Called up on Monday morning and left a message. Doug was able to have his guys fit us in during the early afternoon. 45 minutes, took out enough debris to fill up half a large ShopVac. Thanks guys! The dryer is working great and clothes dry within 40 mins. Would definitely use them again. read more

Lint Bandits is fantastic! We had all of our air ducts cleaned and I already feel like I'm breathing cleaner air!!! We moved into our house a little less than a year ago and it has been on my list of things to have our ducts cleaned... I could see the build up and filth in the vents and knew that our heater/air conditioner was probably not running well. I called three places to get estimates and Lint bandits had the highest price... but they are a local business and Doug was friendly, knowledgable and over the phone gave me an exact estimate, so we went with them. The positive feeling I got from Doug over the phone was followed through by Fred and Gary who cleaned our 15 air ducts, vacuumed our house afterwards and cleaned the dryer vent in 2 hours! They even showed us the filth that came out of our air ducts... (I'd post pictures but it is too embarrassing to see how much grime we were living with). Honestly, if you haven't had the air ducts cleaned in your house in the last 7-10 years or moved into a new house, I highly recommend it! It was worth every penny! read more

Very happy I found them! We needed some dryer vents cleaned out and our dryers work much better than before! I did not know how much we needed this. read more

I called Lint Bandits to schedule a dryer vent cleaning and they were able to come out and do the job on the same day. They arrived on time, did the job in less than an hour and cleaned up all of the debris. I will be calling them for future dryer vent cleanings! read more

Lint Bandits did an awesome job cleaning the dryer vent. Doug coordinates the appointment and explains the process. Fred and Jimmy came to my home. They were professional, courteous and friendly. So much lint removed. They left the area clean. Great job and excellent customer service. I highly recommend this company. read more

I recently had DGC team perform a few services in my house. They installed wire-mesh around the solar panel since I had a pigeon problem. They also cleaned the gutters, AC/Heater vents and Dryer vent. First off, the scheduling was very quick. I worked with Dennis and he got the required information from me over the phone and provided a quote shortly. I have Tesla Solar panels and I was not sure if pigeons could nest under it but when the DGC team came over, they found a nest and 3 stubborn pigeons not wanting to leave. They somehow coerced the pigeons, put wire meshing around the panels, and cleaned the gutters while they were on the roof. They did a good job of cleaning the air vents and dry vents ensuring that they cleaned up any of the paint chips that fell when the ducts were opened. One thing to note is that DGC had initially recommended putting spikes on the roof but advised against it after assessing the situation. While I am sure the pigeons cannot nest below the Solar panels anymore, I still see them on the roof. The good news is that DGC has agreed to install the spikes if the pigeons continue to stay. Will post an update as required. read more

Excellent work. I was referred to Lint Bandits, I gave Doug a call, he answered and contacted the tenants within minutes (incredibly responsive, which is important) This is a very important cleaning that should be done on a regular basis. Doug went to the property in a very prompt manner thoroughly cleaned the ducts. I would highly recommend him to clean out the ducts. I am very happy with the service provided and price is very reasonable. read more

Prompt and clean service. I git all vents in my house cleaned after many years. They finished the job in about 2 hrs.

I reached out to Doug of lint bandits on Monday and we scheduled an appointment with him for Saturday @10am. They never showed up. No call, email, text, absolutely no communication. Just didn't show. I was quoted $240 for the service. But if you don't want my money I'm happy to take my business elsewhere. I scheduled my weekend activities around waiting for them to show. I don't respect a business that doesn't respect my time. Update: I am updating my review to change my star rating from 1 to 3. Doug did reach out to me and took the time to explain there was simply an error in booking by one of his associates. I understand that mistakes happen and he offered to perform the service at a discounted price to make up for it. I already had another company clean my vents for me, so I didn't need his services. He seems like a nice guy and does seem to work hard to maintain a good relationship with clients. While I do understand it was a mistake, it was still one that impacted my time. So I can't review his work, but I will give him credit for trying to fix the error. read more

Awesome experience. Arrived a few minutes early this morning, explained everything they were going to do, did a thorough job and completely cleaned up afterwards. We tested the dryer's output and they recommended, based on what they cleaned out, that I remember to have the dryer vents cleaned out every 3-5 years and not wait 8! Thank you. read more

The whole experience for gutter cleaning was quick, easy and reasonably priced. Doug, Fred and Dennis were prompt, swift and professional, made everything run smoothly. read more

Fred and Kai are the best in the business. They helped clean out the dryer vent that I have attempted to clean out myself for 3 weeks. In addition, they cleaned out all the air vents for a reasonable price. I will continue to use them for future cleaning. read more

On time, quick and efficient. We used them last year after two other companies said they couldn't clean it as something was in the way. DGC came out and cleaned it with no problem. This year they called to remind me it was probably time to clean it again. They did. read more

First of all I'm only knocking off one star because when arranging appointment at first they thought I was in Stockton. On the day of the appointment they called me saying they were going to be an hour early than our planned appointment. No big deal. Turns out they were looking for my address in Pleasanton instead of Concord. So after reconfirming my address they wind up actually showing up a half hour late. 2 guys that showed up were pleasant and thorough in theor job. They cleaned our ducts and our dryer vent was really clogged! They cleaned after themselves as well. Would go with them again. read more

EXCELLENT....Customer service....Promptness in time....Quality work!!! Everything that was said by all the 5 star reviewers is a definitive statement. What else can I say? .... Great professionalism and outstanding work Doug !!! read more

Highly recommended service. Our 5 year old dryer quit drying clothes, as it blew a heater element fuse, mainly because of the amount of lint in the house vent, which reduced the outgoing airflow so much that the fuse overloaded. The Lint Bandits cleaning team did an excellent and complete job. They were courteous and polite. The owner, Doug, answers the business phone and explains the entire cleaning process in a friendly and easy to understand manner. I would definitely use them again. Plus, I received a Yelp discount, which is nice. read more

Doug (owner), Fred, and Jimmy were fantastic. After their first visit, I was still getting an error message from my dryer indicating the vent still needed cleaning. I called Doug and he sent Fred and Jimmy out again for free and helped me troubleshoot the problem. Still had an issue, so they came out again for free and ensured it was working right. Really great customer service and true dedication to making sure I was taken care of. read more

Easy to set up an appointment via Yelp and texting. The guys arrived on time and fixed the problem. Lint Bandits is quite zealous in following up and seeking feedback, which is mostly a good thing (better than not caring!). However, I'd prefer to just get an email rather than an email plus voicemails, phone calls, and texts. If we have a dryer vent problem again, we'd call the Lint Bandits. read more

Very good service. Focused and thorough in completing the vent cleaning

I like these guys. A neighbor referred them to me. When I called, Doug the owner immediately answered and walked me through each step then gave me his price. He was able to schedule around my schedule. The guys arrived ON TIME. After showing them in they performed the work clean and quickly. They clean gutters too. I'm a happy customer. read more

Quick and efficient. Did the job. Technicians appearance needs to be upgraded. read more
