Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Banbury
Beyond the kitchen, TR19® Air covers the ordinary supply and extract systems that serve offices, schools and other buildings. It’s risk-based and inspection-led, so we look before we clean. We’re often asked to deal with duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning and toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff, across general extract ductwork, offices and schools and grilles and diffusers.
For a school, surgery or office in Banbury, cleaning is planned around opening hours: out of hours, at weekends or during the holidays.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The size of the system
- The condition we find in the survey
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you will get one fixed quote.
Helping us quote
We can often survey from pictures. The most useful are:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The site address and the type of premises
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

What we’re called out for in Banbury
Filters never catch everything, and that fine dust settles along the supply ducts. Extract ducts pick up dust, fibres and fluff from the rooms they serve.
Look out for these warning signs:
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
- Poor airflow from the vents
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Horton General Hospital (about 0.8 miles south-east) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts.
Comparing quotes
- What insurance they carry
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
What we do, step by step
Each visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the ventilation duct cleaning, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. Three things shape a visit in Banbury: when you’re closed, where we can park and how we get to the system.
- We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- Before pictures are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
- Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
- After photos are taken and the certificate and report issued.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Questions from Banbury
Do you work overnight in Banbury?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Banbury can fit around your hours. Just call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Is ventilation duct cleaning available in Banbury?
Yes, Banbury is covered. Get in touch with the details and we’ll arrange a survey.
What do you do with what you remove?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
How much notice do you need?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
What’s TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.
What if there are not enough access panels?
We list any unreached sections on the report, with the reason. New access panels can be installed so the whole system can be cleaned.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
Yes, where the photos show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, then a fixed quote.
When something else is needed
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Problems with how the system is controlled
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly.
What the work covers
- Offices and schools
- Toilet extract systems
- General extract ductwork
- Hospitals and care homes
- Grilles and diffusers
- Supply ductwork
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
Between visits
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- Keep filters changed on time
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.
Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.
Ventilation in Banbury buildings
The FSA’s food hygiene register lists about 10 schools, colleges and universities, about 22 care, childcare and hospital premises and about 11 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses with registered kitchens or food service within about 1.5 miles of central Banbury. Many buildings of this kind have supply and extract ductwork that gathers dust and needs inspecting. Banbury’s nearest hospital, Horton General Hospital, is about 0.8 miles south-east. If you run a surgery, clinic or care home, your ventilation deserves the same care as a hospital’s, on a smaller scale.
Wherever a school like St Mary's Church of England Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time. If you manage shops or offices close to Banbury station, a TR19® Air inspection shows whether the ductwork needs cleaning.
