When and how did your business get started?
In 2008, after my hours at my second job were being cut due to the economic downturn in the housing industry, I decided to put my knowledge of being a firefighter (18 years at that time) and of building construction to better use. I had seen many dryer fires and decided it was time to start a business that would continue to serve my community.
What is your business best known for?
I clean dryers and dryer vents. Unlike some other companies, LintFighters makes sure that your dryer is in safe operating condition.
Does your business offer a special deals card or program?
We offer homeowner association discounts, specializing in multi-unit developments, such as condos or townhouses.
