Ventilation duct cleaning in Ashburnham, done properly
When the work is finished, you get a TR19® certificate and before and after pictures. The report lists what we cleaned, any sections not reached and a recommended next inspection, giving the ventilation a clean bill of health on paper. The work covers general extract ductwork, offices and schools and grilles and diffusers, and the jobs we see most are damp or stale smells from grilles and ductwork never cleaned since it was installed.
Work in a small place like Ashburnham starts with agreeing access and timings.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

What staff can safely do
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Why act early in Ashburnham
Facilities teams are regularly asked to show evidence of ventilation hygiene. A TR19® certificate and photo report from a recent clean give them that. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

Ashburnham: your questions answered
Can you get to a site in Ashburnham?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Ashburnham included. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you work overnight in Ashburnham?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Ashburnham needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before we start.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
The law calls them the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. If you’re not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
Not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
What should I send you?
Only a few details: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

What happens on the day
Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, do the work, clear away and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Somewhere as small as Ashburnham, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- 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.
- Debris is cleared from the duct runs, then grilles and diffusers are cleaned.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Move anything stored near the system
Get a fixed quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Looking after it afterwards
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Do not run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Keep to the inspection interval in your report
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
- Report dust blowing from grilles straight away
The report lists the sections we cleaned and any we couldn’t reach, backed up by before and after photos. We’ll suggest where new access panels would help.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- How easy every part is to reach
- The size of the system
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- What state the system is in
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
What to send for a quote
