About our ventilation duct cleaning in Great Tew
Toilet, washroom and general extract ducts gather dust, fluff and debris. Supply ducts carry anything the filters miss. We clean both, keeping the work tidy and the building protected. Common call-outs are for dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years and duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning, across hospitals and care homes, offices and schools and general extract ductwork.
In a village or hamlet like Great Tew, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
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. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Great Tew: your questions answered
Can ventilation in schools around Great Tew be cleaned out of term?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Around Great Tew, the Food Standards Agency lists about 2 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Can the work in Great Tew be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Great Tew can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
What should I send you?
Just the basics: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Is Great Tew in your area?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of South East England, and that includes Great Tew.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.
Will you clean the vents in the rooms?
Yes. We clean the grilles and diffusers along with the ductwork, so the room side is clean too.
What happens if it’s left?
Starting with an inspection means you only clean what needs it. Skipping it leaves you guessing. A planned visit to Great Tew is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.

Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Great Tew
In a building in Great Tew, the ventilation may run for long hours every day, and every hour of running brings more dust with it. The busier the building, the faster it builds up.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
- Dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years
- Damp or stale smells from grilles
- Poor airflow from the vents
Classrooms and halls at schools such as Great Tew County Primary School are easiest to work in when pupils are away.
Comparing quotes

- Whether VAT is included
- Proof of insurance

Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Include grilles in the cleaning rota
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Keep to the inspection interval in your report
- Flag any dust coming out of the vents
Before any works, think about the ducts. Turn off the system or cover the openings during dusty jobs.
Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overdue or badly fitted filters let dust into the supply ducts.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
What affects the quote in Great Tew
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- How big the system is
- The number of sites or systems
- The condition we find in the survey
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
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The postcode and the type of business
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
How the visit works
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. For a village or hamlet like Great Tew, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- The work area is protected and the system switched off.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
Before we arrive
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
