We have used Nicks for years and they have always given 5 star service. We'd highly recommend them!
On time and very polite workers. They did a good job and cleaned up afterwards.
Ernesto was fantastic. Professional, focused, courteous, friendly, and committed to safety. High quality service provided. Recommend Nick’s without hesitation.
Great service and very professional. All around nice guys. Highly recommend.
Have used the company before. They are meticulous and cleaned everything up. I had waited more than four years to clean vent again. Grateful we did not have a fire. Thanks guys?!
Excellent, reliable service. I’ve used these folks for many years. They are always on time, clean up beautifully, and send reminders.
I can’t say enough good things about this company. They charge a fair price and deliver excellent service. Several things impressed me greatly: 1. They were very upfront and transparent about the pricing from the start. 2. The crew arrived on time and thoughtfully informed me about 30 minutes before they arrived…
timely and competitive pricing very knowledgeable team
Excellent service very professional highly recommended!
technician was polite, efficient, knowledgeable. Work truck was clean and professional looking. Would use again!
Really appreciated what a great job they did! Recently moved into a new place and the dryer had an error. Evidently the previous owner never cleaned the vent....it was packed and could have caused a fire. The crew were thorough, cleaned up the mess that came out of the vent and really helped educate me on how to…
Arrived early and did an excellent job.
Put inquiry in to get service in the morning and the technician was to my house and done before 2pm. Love the same day service as welll as the before and after photos
The company replied within an hour of my initial contact. They also were able to get a tech out within 3 hours of my request. Ernesto, the technician, was incredibly helpful and professional during the service. He also took photos (before and after) to show what was occurring and the source of my issue.
Ernesto was very good, he was professional and explained everything well and showed pictures of what he had cleaned.
As always whenever we have sold or purchase a home , the first thing I do is call Nick's Dryer vent cleaners. Well this time was the best money we ever spent. Nick came out and found two broken and disconnected dryer vent pipes. Nick his team from Cali Breeze AC open up the wall and repaired and clean 27years of…
Nick Jr and Eddie did a great professional cleaning of our dryer vent. I would recommend their service to others
Honest, hard-working professionals who get the job done right.
We used Nick's Dryer Vent Cleaning services to clean all the air ducts in our home, our bathrooms fans and the dryer vent since we were getting a new dryer installed. They were knowledgeable, on time, and efficient. Definitely recommend!
Excellent service
Nicks team was professional, courteous and informed me about the cost before the work started!!
The team was able to come within a day’s notice. They were professional, diligent, and the price was competitive. I appreciated their honestly about how often we need our vents and dryer serviced.. they didn’t recommend services we didn’t need!
I sent in a request online the night before and they were able to show up the following afternoon. Eddie and Junior were very personable and super quick. Just moved into a new home and the dryer was taking multiple cycles to dry clothes. When they told us the dryer vent had dirt coming out and there was no air flow,…
Carlos was prompt and was able to recommend additional maintenance I needed for my dryer.
Great service, very professional.
We have used Nick's for several years for our dryer vent cleaning. Carlos and Ernesto were great! They were on time, very courteous, great communication before, during and after. I highly recommend!! Thank you both!
Nick’s was easy to schedule an appointment with and provided the price of service beforehand. They were friendly, accommodating and easy to book an appointment around my timeframe. They were efficient and honest which are two commendable reasons I will use them in the future. I don’t usually leave reviews, but this business deserves a shoutout!
Efficient, knowledgeable, competent and professional. Highly recommend!
I use them regularly to clean out dryer vents, which prevents a fire hazard. These folks are prompt, tidy and show you exactly what they fixed. They also clean heating ducts. Great service and value!
These gentlemen were so kind and had patience while I wrangled wee ones out of their way. They showed me what they cleaned out of the dryer vent and cleaned everything up inside and out. I would definitely recommend them to everyone!
Nick’s did an amazing job cleaning our ductwork! Eddie and Ernesto were efficient and careful! The before and after pictures were shocking! Nick was the only one who quoted us an upfront price per vent and his pricing was the most reasonable of all we called! We used Nick himself a number of years ago to clean our…
Highly recommend Nicks Dryer Vent Cleaning. Carlos did a great job and was very efficient. 5 stars!
Can’t say enough about this company. They were super responsive, professional, quick, and thorough cleaning out our air ducts yesterday- we already notice a difference in the quality of air (no more sneezing from the dust!) 5 stars for sure, highly recommend 👍🏻👍🏻

They were on time, great communication on what our situation was, then gave solutions. Liked their professionalism, and they were thorough. Would highly recommend.
I have use Nick's Dryer Vent Cleaning 4 times. This last cleaning, the Technician stopped cleaning the dryer vent on the roof and showed me that there was insulation on his brush. He said there should be no insulation in that pipe.He climbed up into the attic and found out that the large vent pipe was extremely…
Carlos arrived about an hour after I called Nick’s. He did a great job and cleaned up very well after cleaning the dryer vent. My dryer dries the clothes so much gas now.
Showed up on time!! They showed up on time, and communicated clearly before showing up. They responded quickly to the initial request. They cleaned everything up when they were done, and left it better than when they showed up. Would gladly recommend and use again.

they did a fantastic job of cleaning out my dryer, and the vent. Super professional, and very friendly.
Absolutely great service. Extremely professional, friendly, quick, clean and did a great job. Will be using them exclusively going forward.
Great service & on time. Did not realize how overdue we were to have duct cleaning done. Even with an expensive electronic HVAC air cleaner installed I was amazed to see how filthy the air ducts had become. Good company, happy with their services and would use them again.
Carlos came out to the house. He was so professional, so sweet took care of cleaning the dryer duct . Everything looks amazing.!
We love Nick's, they always do our Vent Cleaning and Duct cleaning projects.
Honest, on time and professional.
Eddy and Jr came out to do my duct cleaning in Escondido and did a great job, They kept me in the loop all through the job. Thank you Nick!
Everything was very easy. From talking and texting Nick to the guys that came out. Very professional and fast. They laid blankets out so no mess for me to pick up. They also did our dryer. When they were here. I will recommend them to everyone. Thank Nick and Staff
Their representatives were great, even came early. Did a great job of cleaning our dryer vent. Really worth doing and did great clean up. Would recommend.
Prompt scheduling and service over a holiday weekend. Efficient and quality work!
Our new dryer has a vent blockage sensor. We replaced all we could and cleaned out as far as we were able. Nicks came in examined long duct, and determined where a blockage of lint was. Fixed in a short amount of time professionally and courteously. I highly recommend using them for whatever duct cleaning you may have. We’re on a yearly schedule now!
Very professional and Honest service from Nick's Dryer Vent Cleaning. I would recommend them to anyone looking to get theirs clean. They are awesome and will let you know and explain everything why a service is needed or why it isn't. They work for you, your safety and care about you as a customer. 5 Stars wish I could give more. Thank you!
Very professional In how they conducted the cleaning and the manner in which they communicated with us leading up to and including the day of cleaning.
I chose them because they were local Oceanside and because of the 5 star reviews. Price was better than what I was quoted from 2 other companies. Nick was quick to respond and confirm appointment. Cleaned our dryer vent which was on the Roof of our house. He did a great job and I will certainly use him again for any other services that they provide
From the start they are very responsive and helpful. I was scheduled for the day after I called, but I was surprised with a call that they could come by same day and take care of it. Ryan came to the door. He was very professional, respectful and knowledgeable. He really went above and beyond to make sure I…
What a pleasure it was and a great decision to use Nick's Dryer Vent Cleaning company! I'm a pretty handy guy, but to think I could do this project myself with a round rotating brush from Home Depot - would be a fantasy! These folks really know their stuff and have the tools and expertise to do an amazing job. All…
They received my call and came out for service same day. Did an excellent job, provided detailed description of work and were efficient and clean.
Excellent service!
Nick’s service was fantastic! I scheduled an appointment and a team was able to come out within a few hours. They were professional and left the home clean. I would definitely use them again.

Great service ,very professional I definitely recommend Nicks Dryer vent cleaning
Nick's told me in advance what the price would be to clean my heating/cooling ducts and they were very helpful in scheduling a time. They texted me as they said they would about 30 minutes prior to arriving. They arrived right on time and were finished in 2 1/2 hours. The price was what they said it would be and…
Super responsive, even on Sunday! They were willing to talk to me while I was at Home Depot and helped validate for me what was wrong. Highly recommend - well worth the slightly higher price than others!!!
I called yesterday to try and set a date to have our dryer vent cleaned. I had a text back within 15 minutes saying that they could come the same day. Amazing! Very professional and left the aria as clean as when he arrived. I will definitely use Nick again
Great Service. I would highly Recommend this company.
We had trouble drying our clothes in the dryer in one cycle. We were nervous that it was the dryer but started with getting our vents cleaned since we never in 4 years had them cleaned. Nick’s team came out about an hour later. They were friendly, courteous, and cleaned up after themselves. They cleaned the vent &…

Would highly recommend Nick’s Dryer Vent Cleaning. Scheduled our appointment with ease. Interactions were professional and friendly. Showed up on time and was thorough with inspections and cleaning.
The gentlemen who came to our house for service were respectful, expedient, straightforward and were kind enough to repair a poorly installed new Dryer. I cannot say enough about their service and professionalism. Highly recommend them.
Great company. My dryer vent exiting my house was clogged up and they were out same day I called with 2 technicians. They arrived on time, were courteous and professional, and did a great job.
I would highly recommend Nick's Dryer Vent Cleaning Service. Eddie text me when he was on his way and took care of the empty bird's nest that was in my dryer vent. He was helpful and gave me some suggestions on how to keep the birds out of the vent and shared with me how they got in. Everyone I dealt with were very friendly and helpful.
I had Eddie and Raul come out to clean our dryer vents because we were getting an error on our dryer. Turns out my roof dryer vent was built over and is blocked with wood 😑. Eddie and Raul were great. They wore booties upon request and cleaned up the vent. They also hooked up our dryer for us and installed a better…
Eddie did an outstanding job cleaning our dryer duct and vent.
Found them online and process was done well, fast, professional, and a great price. Another vendor (omega) wanted to charge $99 just to come quote it unless I signed up for a program.
Professional, great service, on time. Service was done in a timely manner and of great quality. Excellent preventive maintenance that is usually overlooked.
I'm very pleased with how attentive and profesional Nick and Dominic were. They were able to get all the gunk and water out of our dryer vent and leave it working great. I was able to call them on Saturday and get them to come out that following Monday. They other affordable prices for excellent work. We are very happy with the services provided.
Incredibly professional! I would HIGHLY recommend them and will be using them again in the future.
Great service from Nick's Dryer Vent Cleaning. Very professional and knowledgeable personnel came out to clean our condo's dryer vent located on the 2nd floor. As requested, they took a picture of the lint they cleaned out from our dryer vent. They informed us how often a vent should be cleaned out, and they…
We used a "cheaper" guy first and after a couple weeks, the dryer vents were still clogged and not drying clothes properly. Was referred to Nick's - they were top level pros the whole way. Prompt appointment, worked with my tenants directly, and got the job done and done right!
Super responsive. They were able to come clean my dryer vent within a few hours of contacting them. Great customer service, highly recommend.
Pleasant experience when booking and during the work. Friendly, professional technician. He was efficient and informative.
Great job. The communication throughout the project was top notch! Eddie and his assistant were friendly, informative and efficient! Would highly recommend this business.

The folks from Nick's did an absolutely outstanding job cleaning our dryer vent duct! Their price was fair, the technicians were friendly and explained every step and they were punctual for the appointment! Just a first class experience all around! They are very highly recommended!
Nick's Dryer Vent Cleaning is absolutely wonderful and I would give them 10 stars if it was an option on Google reviews. My son and I were cleaning our dryer vent and the brush came off the extension and was stuck deep in the vent. After two days of trying on my own including endoscopic camera, drain snakes, etc...…
Very professional, very excellent from my first call to book my appointment to the time they left my house after cleaning the air ducts. I was also scheduled for them to clean my dryer vent the same day, but Eddie showed me a picture of how clean the vent was and said they would take that off the bill because I…
Called Nick's to clean my dryer vent. The technician, Eddie, was running ahead of schedule and asked to come early. Eddie, and his partner, were very professional and efficient. They showed me all the debris they removed from the duct. Upon completion we no longer had error codes on the dryer. Job well done
I called them on Monday because my dryer kept indicating the airflow was blocked. They sent Eddie and another coworker out the next day. They were polite and professional and cleaned out both the vent in the laundry room and the vent on the roof. I would highly recommend them to anyone!
Great service!!!
Nick is Professional and loves what he does and he does it well. He will not leave your home or business until the Job is well done. I highly recommend him and his company. Thank you Nick
They were cleaning my neighbor’s dryer vent and I saw what came out! I have been in this house almost three years so I know the vents are due. He was able to jump over to my house and clean mine that day. Professional, personable, small business owner for 13 years. Very happy with the service and the piece of mind.
Amazing from the first phone call to the impeccable work done to clean out our dryer vent. Jessica was so wonderful to speak to over the phone and provided a quick response and appointment time. Nick was so kind the moment he walked in and thorough with cleaning out the vent from top to bottom. Would highly…
From the moment you contact Nick's the experience is flawless. There was a confirmation email and a call prior to arrival . The dryer vent was cleared as it had not previously been done correctly. Eddie was able to access the vent on the roof of our two story home to finally solve our problem. Everything was…
Everyone was friendly and responsive. They did the job and showed me before and after pictures. I have more peace of mind now!

We've had Nick's clean our dryer vents two times now, and both times they have been very responsive, friendly, easy to work with on scheduling, and of course the most important part-- they have done an excellent job cleaning out our dryer vents! It's kind of amazing how much lint gets built up in there, but they do…
They were super friendly and cleaned up after themselves before they left. We could tell the difference in our AC air quality right away!
Called Nicks as we were getting an error code on our dryer that said there was not enough ventilation. Our dryer vent run is over 30 feet, so it was somewhat challenging to navigate. I wish we had called Nicks before we attempted this ourselves - would have saved a bunch of time and money. They were…
