How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Crockham Hill
Every ventilation system has ducts bringing air in and ducts taking it out. Dust and debris build up in both, some of which ends up back in the rooms. Our cleaning covers the ducts, grilles and diffusers, to TR19® Air. If you are dealing with supply ducts with years of dust inside and ventilation full of debris from building work, we can put it right.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

Offices and retail
Shared systems in multi-let buildings need access to several areas. We plan access with the managing agent.
Schools and colleges
Schools and colleges are easiest to clean during the holidays, with nobody in the classrooms.
Common problems we fix in Crockham Hill
Building work is one of the biggest sources of debris in ducts, particularly if it’s left running while work goes on. Plaster, wood and masonry dust can sit in the ducts for years.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Odours carried round the building by the ducts
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
- Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
- Ventilation full of debris from building work
Around Crockham Hill, as anywhere, ventilation cleaning begins with an inspection.
Questions to ask before you book
- When the next visit should be, and why
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
How the visit works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. The timing of a visit to Crockham Hill is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Clear loose items from the work area

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
Common questions in Crockham Hill
Can you work in Crockham Hill outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Crockham Hill doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just call 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Is Crockham Hill in your area for ventilation duct cleaning?
Yes, Crockham Hill is covered. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day of the survey details.
What happens to the waste?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
Do we get a certificate after the clean?
Yes. You get a TR19® certificate and a report with before and after photos. Keep them in the maintenance log.
How far ahead should we book?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. Quotes usually come back within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes. We always survey first, on site or from photos and drawings, and then quote a fixed price.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before we start, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
The Fire Safety Order 2005 calls them the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.
What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something 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’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. 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. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Keeping the system healthy
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Don’t block grilles with furniture or storage
- Don’t run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Report dust blowing from grilles straight away
Pass the paperwork to your facilities or maintenance team, so the history stays together. Year on year, it shows how fast dust builds up.
Make sure there are enough access panels to inspect and clean the ducts. The worst build-up tends to be where no one can look.
