What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- The scale of the work
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- A few general shots of the system
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Elsted
Extract ducts from toilets, changing rooms and general areas collect dust and lint. Supply ducts carry anything the filters miss. We clean both, keeping the work tidy and the building protected. The work covers offices and schools, general extract ductwork and grilles and diffusers, and the jobs we see most are odours carried round the building by the ducts and duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning.
In a village or hamlet like Elsted, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. 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. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
How the job changes from site to site
Schools and colleges
Schools and colleges are easiest to clean during the holidays, with nobody in the classrooms.
Offices and retail
Multi-let buildings may share ductwork between tenants. Access is agreed with the building manager.
What happens on the day
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Elsted.
- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- We take after pictures and send the certificate and report.
How to prepare
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we start.

When it’s something else
Ventilation duct cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Grease in kitchen extract systems, cleaned to TR19® Grease instead
- Ventilation that’s undersized for the building
- Controls and BMS faults that affect the system
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Questions from Elsted
Can you work in Elsted outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Elsted keeps running as normal. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
Will you come out to Elsted?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Elsted is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not usually. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits so parts stay in use.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
Yes, if we can see what we need. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, and the quote follows that.
Are you insured?
Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and the details are available on request.
Do you clean grilles and diffusers?
Yes. Grilles and diffusers are cleaned as part of the job, so dust is not left at the outlets.
What’s TR19?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We record them on the report, with pictures where possible, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
- Stick to the filter change schedule
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
The report lists the sections we cleaned and any we couldn’t reach, with photos before and after. We will suggest where new access panels would help.
Fit access panels where the ductwork cannot be reached. Hidden sections are the ones that get worst.
