How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Blackmore
Dust in ventilation ductwork isn’t only a cleanliness issue. It slows the air, strains the fans and can be blown back out of the grilles. A clean puts the system back as it should be. The work covers general extract ductwork, offices and schools and hospitals and care homes, and common reasons people get in touch are ducts that need a clean before handover and dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers.
Somewhere as small as Blackmore, ducted ventilation is normally limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

- Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning
- Poor airflow from the vents

How it works
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Blackmore.
- We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
- We open the ductwork through its access panels.
- Before photos are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
- Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
- We take after pictures and send the certificate and report.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

What your team can do, and what needs us
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Stick to the filter change schedule
- Flag any dust coming out of the vents
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- File each ventilation report with the building records
The report includes a recommended date for the next inspection, based on what we found. Put it in the diary now so it doesn’t slip.
Fit access panels where the ductwork cannot be reached. The worst build-up tends to be where no one can look.
