What we’re called out for in Eastleigh
Damp ducts hold onto dirt. Condensation and leaks turn loose dust into a stubborn layer, which is harder to shift later.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Stuffy rooms and stale air
- Construction dust left in ducts after a refit
- Grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt
- Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning
School buildings such as Norwood Primary School are typically done in the holidays, so classrooms are not disturbed.
What your quote should include
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether the quote shows VAT
Ventilation duct cleaning in Eastleigh, done properly
Beyond the kitchen, TR19® Air covers the ordinary supply and extract systems that serve offices, schools and other buildings. It works by inspecting first and cleaning where the risk calls for it, so we look before we clean. The work covers toilet extract systems, hospitals and care homes and offices and schools, and people most often call us about damp or stale smells from grilles and ventilation full of debris from building work.
Many schools and offices in a town like Eastleigh have a mix of older and newer ventilation. An inspection shows which parts need cleaning, so you’re not paying for more than the system needs.
Duct Doctor has 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 are fully insured.

The report shows exactly which parts weren’t reached. We can install panels to open those sections up.
When it’s something else
Some problems need a different service or another trade:

Aftercare tips
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Don’t block grilles with furniture or storage
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
Share the report with whoever looks after the building’s maintenance, so the history stays together. Over time, it shows how quickly the system gets dirty.
Protect the system during building work by switching it off or covering the grilles.
The process
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one, and we clear up before we go. We arrive in Eastleigh once you’ve closed and leave the site ready for the morning.
- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- 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.
- We take after pictures and send the certificate and report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Clear the space around the work
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
Ask for a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before work begins.
Advice
What your team can do, and what needs us
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.

Supply ductwork
Anything in a supply duct can end up in the rooms it feeds. Cleaning it deals with the source.
Grilles and diffusers
Dark streaks round a ceiling diffuser can be a sign of dirty supply air. We clean the grilles and look at what’s behind them.
