Oxi Fresh Carpet Cleaning
Professional Somerville Dryer Vent Cleaning
Squeezing a washer and dryer into a triple-decker takes creativity, and the venting in those setups is often older, longer, and more twisted than anyone realizes. That is why Oxi Fresh offers expert Somerville dryer vent cleaning for the city’s dense mix of century-old multi-family houses, converted condos, and new construction near Assembly Row.
Between Davis Square, Union Square, Winter Hill, and Ball Square, a lot of local laundry hardware sits in basements and back hallways with vent runs that snake through joists before reaching daylight. New England weather compounds the issue: damp springs, humid Augusts, and long winters when the dryer barely gets a rest. Lint packs into those runs season after season until airflow slows to a crawl.
If your loads are coming out damp, our team is a phone call away. Use the Online Scheduler or dial 617-863-0900 to grab a time.
The Oxi Fresh Cleaning Routine, Start to Finish
We keep the process tight and predictable, which matters in tight city homes where the laundry room might also be a hallway.
- Initial inspection: We trace and examine the vent system, identifying blockages, sagging, poor joints, and anything that restricts airflow.
- Drop cloths in place: Protective cloths cover floors and adjacent surfaces before we begin.
- Full system cleaning: We clean the entire vent run using air agitation tools, rotary brushes, and other professional-grade equipment suited to long or curved ducts.
- Second inspection: We recheck the system for hazards or issues and confirm the airflow is where it should be.
- Cleanup and walkthrough: Drop cloths and gear come up, and we show you exactly what we pulled out.
From Triple Deckers to Laundromats
Somerville dryer vent cleaning is not only a homeowner service. Oxi Fresh works with landlords, condo associations, laundromats, and other commercial properties throughout the city, where shared dryers see far more use than any single-family machine.
Signs it is time to call:
