About our ventilation duct cleaning in Fair Cross
Dust in ventilation ductwork isn’t only a cleanliness issue. It can restrict airflow, make the system work harder and send dust back into occupied rooms. A clean puts the system back as it should be. The work covers general extract ductwork, offices and schools and grilles and diffusers, and people most often call us about dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms and ductwork with too few access panels to clean.
Somewhere as small as Fair Cross, ducted ventilation is normally limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

What the work involves, part by part
Grilles and diffusers
Dark streaks round a ceiling diffuser can be a sign of dirty supply air. The grilles are cleaned and the ducts behind inspected.
Hospitals and care homes
In healthcare and care settings, there’s no quiet time. The work is sequenced with staff so care carries on.
What a clean won’t put right
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what ventilation duct cleaning won’t do:
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
- A system that isn’t designed to move enough air
- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll tell you honestly.

How the visit works
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Fair Cross.
- We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
- Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
- We take after photos and send the certificate and report.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
Getting a quote
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

What affects the quote in Fair Cross
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- The number of sites or systems
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- What state the system is in
- The scale of the work
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and photos, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
- Report dust blowing from grilles straight away
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as moisture makes dust stick.
Multi-site and managed buildings
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What happens if it’s left?
Landlords, tenants and auditors may want proof the ventilation is looked after. A TR19® certificate and photo report from a recent clean give them that. Planning a trip to Fair Cross ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

Can you come to Fair Cross after we close?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Fair Cross keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
What about areas you can’t get to?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
Not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The legal duty sits in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 in England and Wales.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before we start, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
What do you do with what you remove?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.
