How ventilation duct cleaning works in Wokingham
Every clean ends with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. It shows what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the system should next be inspected, so you have it all on record. The work covers general extract ductwork, hospitals and care homes and toilet extract systems, and people most often call us about toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff and odours carried round the building by the ducts.
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building.
- We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
- Ducts are inspected at access points and the condition recorded.
- The area below is protected and the system switched off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.

Ventilation duct cleaning around Wokingham
From Reading, Woodley and Earley to its smaller places, Wokingham has buildings that rely on mechanical ventilation. Each is inspected first, then cleaned to TR19® Air where necessary.
Across England, including Wokingham, the responsible person has a legal duty to assess and reduce fire risk, and each certificate and photo report is a record you can keep in your log book.
Reading: Healthcare buildings such as Royal Berkshire Hospital, about 0.8 miles east, depend on their ventilation; if you manage a surgery, clinic or care home near Reading, yours matters too. For schools like Coley Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Flag any dust coming out of the vents
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Log every filter change
We recommend when the system should next be inspected, based on what we found. Diary it right away so it doesn’t slip.
Protect the system during building work by turning it off or covering the openings.
What we’re called out for in Wokingham
Planned maintenance tends to focus on fans and filters, not the ducts. A building in Wokingham can have well-serviced plant and dirty ductwork at the same time.
Clients usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Systems missing access panels
- Grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
Multi-site and managed buildings
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Wokingham. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
Fixed quotes for ventilation duct cleaning in Wokingham
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- How easy every part is to reach
- How big the system is
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are unsure, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- A few general shots of the system
- The postcode and the type of business
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room

Wokingham: your questions answered
Which accreditations do you hold?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.
Which sectors do you work in?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
How long does ventilation cleaning take?
Typically, the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Large buildings can be phased, often out of hours, to fit around the building.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
What do you do with what you remove?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Do you work evenings and weekends?
Yes. The work is planned around the building’s hours. Holidays suit schools, and evenings or weekends suit offices.
