Dryer Vent Wizard - Franchise

David Lavalle, founder of fellow Neighborly company Mr. Handyman, discovered a need for a home maintenance specialist much of America had never seen before. Homeowners’ laundry rooms were underperforming. Frequent dryer hazards, malfunctions and breakdowns share a common culprit: poorly installed or improperly maintained dryer vents. 

In response to that demand, Dryer Vent Wizard was launched in 2004. We’ve since become the leading company specializing in residential, business and multi-unit dryer vent cleaning, repairing and installation in the U.S. What’s more, we’re one of the only – and by far the largest – national franchise specific to our industry, with steady growth since our inception.
