If you’re dealing with grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt and construction dust left in ducts after a refit, we can put it right.

When it’s something else
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
- Ventilation that is undersized for the building
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will say what we think.

What affects the quote in Fingest
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The size of the system
- The condition of the system
- The times the site is available
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- A few general shots of the system
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.
Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Report dust blowing from grilles straight away
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Stick to the filter change schedule
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.
Don’t let construction dust into the ventilation by switching it off or covering the grilles.

Common problems we fix in Fingest
Most ductwork is out of sight, so dust collects unseen. Grilles may be wiped, but the ducts behind them rarely are.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection
- Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
- Ventilation full of debris from building work
Healthcare buildings such as Wycombe Hospital, about 5.4 miles east, depend on their ventilation; if you manage a surgery, clinic or care home near Fingest, yours matters too.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
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. Leave those to us.
How the job changes from site to site
Grilles and diffusers
Where they come out, grilles are taken down and cleaned, then refitted.
Extract ductwork
Extract fans pull air through these ducts, so a blocked duct strains them. A clean duct takes the load off.
FAQs for Fingest
Is ventilation duct cleaning available in Fingest?
Yes, Fingest is covered. Get in touch with the details and we will arrange a survey.
Can you come to Fingest after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that can’t wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
How much time does a ventilation clean need?
It takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. The size of the system and the access make the biggest difference.
When should our ventilation next be cleaned?
Under TR19® Air, the answer comes from inspecting the ducts. Heavily used buildings, or those with vulnerable occupants, may need attention more often.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
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.
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. The visit takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. In a small place like Fingest, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We survey the system from drawings, photos or a site visit.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
