A Profitable Add-On Service To Window Cleaning

Window Washing Success Tips blog

Hi All,

I was talking to a window cleaner the other day down in south florida and he was talking about an add-on service that he provides to his customers that he is really profiting from, so I thought I’d pass this bit of news on to you.

The “Add-on” service that he’s referring to is Dryer Vent Cleaning.

He actually got into it by accident. One of his customers kept on asking him over and over again to clean their dryer vent, so finally Sean said ok and went about finding out how to do it and how much he should charge for the service.

Basically all it takes is a shopvac and a dryer vent cleaning kit which I’ll talk about in a minute.

As far as pricing, he invited a company that specializes in dryer vent cleaning over to his house to clean his own dryer vent and they charged him $125. It only took ‘em about a half hour, so Sean figured he could charge $75 per dryer vent cleaning and still be profitable. It doesn’t matter the size of the home, the vent placement, etc. etc. He just charges a flat $75 for each dryer vent cleaning.

On occasion a dryer vent cleaning may take him longer, but it all evens out because he’s also done quite a few that take him no more than 20 minutes.

So that’s how it all came about. Now Sean asks every single window cleaning customer of his whether he can clean their dryer vents. The demand is high.

$75 for a half hour effort could end up turning into a nice healthy income stream for you.

Here is a video where you can check out more:

It talks about how to clean dryer vents and it shows a dryer vent cleaning tool kit. It’s called a “LintEater Rotary Dryer Vent Cleaning Kit & 12′ Extension Kit”. This’ll provide you a total of 24′ for the longer tubing. It’s located at this webpage.
