Dryer Vent Cleaning Cost in Toronto (2026 Rates)

Dryer vent cleaning in Toronto typically costs $130 to $220 for a standard house with a short exterior sidewall run. Long runs, rooftop terminations and stacked condo shafts push it to $220 to $400. Here is what changes the number.

Why this job is priced by the run, not the dryer

The dryer is the easy part. The cost is in the duct: length, number of elbows, material and where it terminates. A 6-foot straight run out the basement wall is 30 minutes. A 40-foot run with four elbows going up to a roof cap in a Leslieville semi is a different job entirely.

Toronto and GTA price ranges

• Standard house, sidewall termination (under 15 ft): $130–$190
• Longer run, 15–30 ft with multiple elbows: $190–$260
• Rooftop or high-terminated run: $250–$400
• Condo or stacked townhouse unit: $180–$300
• Crushed or disconnected duct repair: quoted after inspection

What a real cleaning includes

Rotary brush the full length of the duct from both ends where possible, HEPA vacuum extraction, pull and clean behind the dryer, clear the exterior vent hood and flapper, then verify airflow at the termination. A blower-only "blow through" from one end leaves the packed section behind.

The safety math

Clothes dryers are one of the most common sources of household fires in Canada, and lint is the fuel. Beyond fire, a blocked vent forces gas dryers to vent combustion by-products indoors and runs your electric dryer far longer than it should, adding real money to a Toronto hydro bill.

How often?

Once a year for a typical family. Every six months if you have pets, a large household, or a run over 25 feet. If drying takes two cycles, the top of the dryer is hot to the touch, or the laundry room smells damp, do not wait.
