We Run Emmett On Route Days. Get On The List And We Bring The Truck Over The Hill.
Emmett is a thirty-minute drive over Freezeout from the rest of the valley, so we group Emmett dryer vents onto dedicated days and fill the day. Same crew, same equipment, same flat price — you just book onto the next Emmett day instead of any day.
Route Days, Same Price As Boise
A lot of valley companies either do not come to Emmett or quietly add a trip charge when they do. We do it differently: Emmett gets its own days on the calendar, we schedule the whole day in town, and the price is the same $119 side / $149 roof as a house in Meridian.
You book onto the next Emmett day
The calendar shows the dates we are already coming over. Pick a time on one of those days.
We tell your neighbors we are coming
The more Emmett vents on one day, the better the day works. If you know someone on your road who is due, send them the link — same price for them.
We bring the truck and do the whole street
Same crew, same equipment as every other job. Nothing is skipped because it is a drive.
The Emmett Vent Is Usually A Side Run — And Usually A Long One
Emmett's housing is older on average than the rest of the Treasure Valley, and a lot of it is single-story on larger lots. The dryer vents out a side wall, which sounds simple, but the laundry room is often nowhere near that wall — the run crosses the crawl space or the attic first.
Long horizontal runs are where lint settles. The air slows, the lint drops, and the low points fill. Add the elbows an old retrofit tends to have and you get a vent that has been quietly narrowing for twenty years.
Wood heat adds to it. Homes that burn wood in winter have finer ash and soot dust in the house, and it ends up in the laundry and then the vent, where it packs with the lint instead of fluffing.
A Maintenance Failure, Not An Appliance Failure
The National Fire Protection Association's research on home fires involving clothes dryers and washing machines found "failure to clean" was the leading cause at 31%. The material most often ignited first was dust, fiber or lint at 27%. About two-thirds of these fires involved electric dryers.
On a long rural side run with a cap that has not been looked at in years, that is not an abstract statistic. It is a description of the vent.
Everything From The Dryer To The Cap — And The Cap
- Dryer pulled out and the area behind it cleanedLint and dust settle there against the heat source.
- Connection inspected, replaced free if it needs itOld foil flex and crushed hoses are the norm in older laundry rooms.
- Full run cleared from the exit pointCrawl space, attic, long horizontal — the entire length, not the reachable part. Never charged by the foot.
- Cap cleared, flap freed, nests removedRural side-wall caps are where birds and mice go. We clear it and make sure the flap seats.
- Airflow confirmed at the exteriorYou feel the push yourself before we head to the next house.

No. We schedule Emmett on route days so the drive is spread across the whole day, and the price is the same $119 side / $149 roof as anywhere else in the valley.
Call us. We add days when one fills, and if you have a neighbor or two who also need it we can usually put a day together around you.
Yes. Wood-heat dust is finer than lint and packs with it inside the vent, so homes with a wood stove restrict faster. Cleaning before heating season, while we are already running fall Emmett days, is the right timing.
Very common on rural side-wall caps. We clear the nest, clean the run behind it, and make sure the flap closes on its own afterward so it does not happen again. Please do not screen the cap — screens mat over with lint and become the blockage.
No. Price is set by where the vent exits — $119 side of the house, $149 through the roof. Emmett runs are often long, and charging by the foot would penalize exactly the homes that need it most.
Yes, and it is the most efficient way to use an Emmett day — the dryer vent drops to $49 when bundled. Duct cleaning is $0.30 per square foot. Details on Emmett duct cleaning →
