Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Ellingham
Do you work overnight in Ellingham?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Ellingham keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
Do you clean school ventilation in Ellingham in the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 3 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Ellingham. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.
Who is the responsible person?
It depends on the building. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, facilities manager or managing agent.
How do you protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
Do we get a certificate after the clean?
Yes, a TR19® certificate and pictures. It also notes unreached sections and a recommended next inspection.
How long will the duct cleaning take?
Expect it to take a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. How much ductwork there is and how easily it’s reached decide the rest.
How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Ellingham
Everyone in the building breathes the air the ventilation brings in. Keeping the ducts clean is a sensible part of looking after them, as much as clean filters and a well-kept AHU. The work covers toilet extract systems, supply ductwork and general extract ductwork, and common reasons people get in touch are poor airflow from the vents and grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt.
Work in a small place like Ellingham starts with agreeing access and timings.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

The process
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. In a small place like Ellingham, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- The work area is protected and the system switched off.
- We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
Before we arrive
- Clear the space around the work
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, photos of the system and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Advice
For landlords and multi-site operators
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What staff can safely do
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
What a clean will not put right
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Building management settings that run the plant
- A system that isn’t designed to move enough air
- Damaged ductwork beyond cleaning
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think before you book.

What affects the quote in Ellingham
You’ll get a fixed price before any work starts. It’s based on:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- A few general shots of the system
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will normally have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Ellingham
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.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
- Damp or stale smells from grilles
- Construction dust left in ducts after a refit
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
For schools like Ringwood School Academy, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.

Part by part
Grilles and diffusers
Grilles and diffusers are where the ducts meet the room. We clean them as part of the job, so dust on them is not blown back in.
Offices and retail
Offices and shops tend to need the work done outside opening hours to keep the space open.
