How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Hextable
Toilet, washroom and general extract ducts gather dust, fluff and debris. Supply ducts pick up whatever gets past the filters. We clean both, keeping the work tidy and the building protected. If you’re dealing with ducts that need a clean before handover and ductwork that hasn’t been inspected, we can help, from toilet extract systems, general extract ductwork and hospitals and care homes onwards.
Visits to a place like Hextable are fitted around opening hours. The work is the same as in any town: inspect, clean, record.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Hextable
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What happens if it’s left?
A clean system moves air more easily, which takes strain off the fans. Dirty ducts make the whole system work harder. Booking ahead lets us plan the trip to Hextable at a time that suits you.
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.

Fixed quotes for ventilation duct cleaning in Hextable
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How easy every part is to reach
- The condition of the system
- How big the system is
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
Quotes are quick. 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.
What we do, step by step
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. We plan the journey to Hextable and bring what the job is likely to need.
- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- Before photos are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
- Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
- After photos are taken and the certificate and report issued.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the space around the work
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
How to get a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Related advice
When it’s something else
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Design problems with the ductwork layout
- Grease in kitchen extract systems, cleaned to TR19® Grease instead
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- Hospitals and care homes
- General extract ductwork
- Toilet extract systems
- Supply ductwork
- Grilles and diffusers
- Offices and schools
Between visits
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
- Keep filters changed on time
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters let dust straight back in.
Regular inspection is the core of TR19® Air. Inspecting on a schedule catches build-up before it becomes a big clean.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.

Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and where several people have control, each can have duties. If you are not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. We don’t leave it behind.
Will you look at the ducts before quoting?
Yes. Inspection is the start of the TR19® Air approach, with photos of the inside. We recommend cleaning where the inspection shows it’s due.
Do you provide a report?
Yes. You get a certificate with the date, location and technician, along with photos before and after.
Are grilles and diffusers included?
Yes, together with the ductwork. You’ll see them in the before and after photos.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
