Managing agents and facilities teams in Baldslow

For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Baldslow

Dust in ventilation ductwork is not only a cleanliness issue. It can restrict airflow, make the system work harder and send dust back into occupied rooms. Cleaning restores the clear airway the system was designed with. The work covers supply ductwork, grilles and diffusers and offices and schools, and the jobs we see most are blocked general extract ductwork and ductwork that hasn’t been inspected.

Work in a small place like Baldslow starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.

Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

When it’s something else

Not every problem is solved by ventilation duct cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:

  • Building management settings that run the plant
  • Ventilation that is undersized for the building
  • Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean

If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Parts of the system we cover

  • General extract ductwork
  • Toilet extract systems
  • Hospitals and care homes
  • Offices and schools
  • Grilles and diffusers
  • Supply ductwork

Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Baldslow

Filters never catch everything, and that fine dust settles along the supply ducts. Extract ducts collect whatever the rooms give off: dust, fibres and lint.

It’s time to book a visit if you see:

  • Odours carried round the building by the ducts
  • Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
  • Ventilation full of debris from building work
  • Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust

If you manage a school such as Ark Helenswood Academy, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

Questions to ask before booking

  • If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
  • What paperwork you get at the end
  • Proof of accreditation you can verify
  • Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

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 the same goes into the written report. The visit takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. Somewhere as small as Baldslow, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.

  1. First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
  2. Access panels are opened along each run.
  3. Before pictures are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
  4. We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
  5. After photos are taken and the certificate and report issued.

How to prepare

  • Tell us where we can park and unload
  • Clear the space around the work
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: 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 dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
