Oxfordshire · Ventilation duct cleaning
Cholsey ventilation duct cleaning
TR19 air cleaning of general supply and extract ventilation ductwork in commercial buildings for commercial sites in Cholsey and across Oxfordshire. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and fully insured.
- Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
- Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning
- Supply ducts with years of dust inside
What happens if it’s left?
Leave dust in the ductwork and it keeps building. Every year adds to the job, and the more gets blown back into the rooms. A visit arranged in advance is far less disruptive than a callout on a busy day.
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Why us?
- Fixed quotes, normally within one working day
- Every job surveyed first
- BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
- Ventilation hygiene specialists since 2009

Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Cholsey
Ventilation duct cleaning is something we carry out for buildings in Cholsey and right across Oxfordshire, in offices, schools, healthcare buildings and retail. Every job begins with a survey and a fixed quote. The work covers hospitals and care homes, general extract ductwork and supply ductwork, and common reasons people get in touch are systems with no record of inspection or cleaning and dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers.
Visits to a place like Cholsey are fitted around opening hours. The work is the same as in any town: inspect, clean, record.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

FAQs for Cholsey
Do you work in villages like Cholsey?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Cholsey is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can ventilation in schools around Cholsey be cleaned out of term?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. The FSA’s register shows about 4 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Cholsey. You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the dates the site is empty.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. TR19® itself is not law; it’s a BESA specification. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
Can you clean ventilation out of hours?
Yes, whenever daytime working is not practical. Tell us when the system can be switched off and we will plan to that.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and the last report help too. Then call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Are you accredited?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Who is the responsible person?
The Fire Safety Order 2005 calls them the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.
Multi-site and managed buildings
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
The process
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Everything the job in Cholsey needs is worked out beforehand, from the survey.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- We inspect the ducts at chosen points to see where cleaning is needed.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
Before we arrive
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
Getting a quote
For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will normally have a quote within one working day.
Advice
Between visits
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Don’t block grilles with furniture or storage
- Keep to the inspection interval in your report
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
Share the report with whoever looks after the building’s maintenance, so the history stays together. Year on year, it shows how fast dust builds up.
Don’t let construction dust into the ventilation by switching it off or covering the grilles.
Ventilation in Cholsey buildings
The FSA’s food hygiene register lists about 4 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens or food service within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Cholsey. Many buildings of this kind have supply and extract ductwork that gathers dust and needs inspecting. Cholsey, about 46 miles from central London, is within our usual area. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you.
School buildings such as Cholsey Primary School are normally done in the holidays, so classrooms are not disturbed. For workplaces around Cholsey station with mechanical ventilation, cleaning can be done in the evening or at weekends.

When it’s something else
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- A system that is not designed to move enough air
- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
- Problems with how the system is controlled
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Where we work
- Toilet extract systems
- Hospitals and care homes
- Grilles and diffusers
- Offices and schools
- Supply ductwork
- General extract ductwork
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: 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, and that is where we come in.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
What the work involves, part by part
Schools and colleges
Classrooms full of people, paper and coats produce plenty of dust. Inspection shows when cleaning is due.
Hospitals and care homes
Patients and residents may be more sensitive to dust in the air. Inspecting and cleaning to TR19® Air supports good air quality.
