What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- What state the system is in
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- A single visit or a regular plan
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

What happens if it’s left?
Starting with an inspection means you only clean what needs it. Skipping it leaves you guessing. It’s easy to lose track of when the work was last done on a quieter site.
We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll talk you through it.

For landlords and multi-site operators
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before we start, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like Coxford, so let us know how to reach it.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- The report records what was cleaned, anything not reached and a next inspection date.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Let us know about parking and loading
Ask for a quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Diary the next TR19® Air inspection
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters let dust straight back in.
Fit access panels where the ductwork can’t be reached. The worst build-up tends to be where no one can look.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
If your staff spot something 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 give you a fixed quote.
Different parts, different methods
Hospitals and care homes
People in hospitals and care homes can be more vulnerable to poor air. Inspection-led cleaning under TR19® Air helps keep systems in good condition.
Supply ductwork
We check supply ducts at intervals along each run to see where cleaning is needed.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
