Dryer vent cleaning
in Sheepshead Bay.
Sheepshead Bay, Madison, and Homecrest are mostly 1920s–1950s brick one- and two-family homes with the laundry tucked in a finished basement and a long vent run climbing to the roof or out a side wall. Two-family setups usually share one utility area, so the runs are longer than they look.
Why Sheepshead Bay specifically
We know the vent runs in Sheepshead Bay homes.
These older brick homes were built with vent runs far longer than a modern dryer is designed to push air through — and in a two-family house the line often bends through 25–35 feet of duct before it reaches daylight. Add the salt air coming off the bay and a finished basement where the laundry sits a few feet from the living space, and a lint-packed vent isn't just slow drying — it's a fire risk right next to where the family spends time. Sheepshead Bay is our home neighborhood: we're based on East 22nd Street in 11229, so most jobs here are a short drive and we can usually get out same-week.
“Our two-family on Avenue X had a dryer that never really dried — we'd run everything twice. Vent Pro found the run was completely packed where it bends up to the roof and cleared it in an hour. First load after came out bone dry in 40 minutes. Nice that they're right here in the neighborhood, too.”

Real photos, real jobs
This is what we pull out of a dryer vent.
No stock photos. Every one of these is from an actual dryer-vent cleaning in a Brooklyn or NYC home — the packed lint, the buildup behind the machine, the odd bird’s nest, and the piles we pulled out to the curb or cleared from the roof when that’s the only way in.

Washer gasket mold cleaning
That black ring inside a front-load washer's rubber door seal is mold — it's why laundry comes out musty. We clean the gasket and treat the rubber. About 30 minutes.
$149.99gasket only · $179.99 with the detergent drawer
One honest note: removing the black stains isn't guaranteed. Stains soak into the rubber itself, so on most jobs they fade a little rather than disappear — but the mold in and around them is completely gone.
Dishwasher deep cleaning & sanitizing
Smells even when it's empty? We deep-clean the filter, interior, racks, door seal, spray arms and dispenser, then sanitize and treat the odor.

I knew something was up when my clothing was taking forever to dry but when the check vent light went on I knew it was a fire hazard. Eyal responded to my text in minutes, booked an appointment on the spot for the next day and showed up on time. He didn't mind that I was standing over to watch the whole process and boy was it satisfying. I couldn't believe the lint that was living in the dryer, behind the wall and at the exit vent on the side of my house. This is not the DIY job you think it is. well worth the visit!

The reason I started Vent Pro NYC was a fire.
A close friend lost half his home to a dryer fire that started in a vent nobody had thought twice about. He wasn't careless. The vent was simply hidden infrastructure — until it wasn't.
For the last decade I've built a cleaning process that proves itself with measurements, not promises. Every visit records your dryer's airflow before and after, right on your invoice.
Today Vent Pro NYC is family-owned and operated in the fullest sense — my son works alongside me, and the family that answers your call is the family that shows up at your door.
If you're reading this, you're already ahead of the curve. Most people only call after something goes wrong. Let's make sure that's not your story.
