When to call us in Botley
Planned maintenance tends to focus on fans and filters, not the ducts. Plant can be well serviced while the ductwork goes untouched for years.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
- Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
- Poor airflow from the vents
For schools like Ley Hill School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.

About our ventilation duct cleaning in Botley
Toilet, washroom and general extract ducts gather dust, fluff and debris. Supply ducts carry anything the filters miss. We clean both, keeping the work tidy and the building protected. The work covers supply ductwork, general extract ductwork and grilles and diffusers, and people most often call us about ductwork with too few access panels to clean and damp or stale smells from grilles.
Work in a small place like Botley starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What else we do in Botley
What staff can safely do
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Why act early in Botley
An inspection-led approach avoids cleaning ducts that don’t need it. Skipping it leaves you guessing. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.

When it’s something else
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Condensation caused by the building rather than the ducts
- Grease in kitchen extract systems, cleaned to TR19® Grease instead
- Ventilation that’s undersized for the building
If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

The process
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Visits to a village like Botley are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- 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.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate and report issued.
Preparing for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Clear loose items from the work area

Aftercare tips
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Don’t block grilles with furniture or storage
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Flag any dust coming out of the vents
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
Change filters on schedule so the clean ducts stay clean. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.
Keep filters changed on time. Overdue or badly fitted filters let dust into the supply ducts.
Fixed quotes for ventilation duct cleaning in Botley
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- How easy every part is to reach

Botley: your questions answered
Do you work at weekends in Botley?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Botley does not have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Can ventilation in schools around Botley be cleaned out of term?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Food Standards Agency records list about 6 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Botley. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
When should our ventilation next be cleaned?
There’s no single interval; under TR19® Air, inspection decides. We suggest a next inspection date after each visit.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Often, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
Will you clean the vents in the rooms?
Yes. Where they can be removed, they’re taken down, cleaned and refitted. Fixed ones are cleaned in place.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
How much notice should we give?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We typically quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
