How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Highbrook
We always start by inspecting. The ducts are opened at access points and the condition recorded, and cleaning is recommended where the inspection shows it’s due. That keeps the work in proportion to the risk. If you have systems with no record of inspection or cleaning and stuffy rooms and stale air, we can help, from supply ductwork, offices and schools and general extract ductwork onwards.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
A written report with pictures follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Leave it or put it right?
Smells, dust around grilles and stuffy rooms are signs the system needs attention. Acting early keeps the clean simpler. In a place like Highbrook, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.

What affects the quote in Highbrook
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Your last certificate, test record or report
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and any previous report or certificate. Then call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Common problems we fix in Highbrook
Why does it matter?: dirt in the ducts can come back out of the grilles, slow the air and add strain on fans. Where people are vulnerable, as in healthcare and care settings, the stakes are higher.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
Wherever a school like St Peter's CofE Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.
Comparing quotes
- What paperwork you get at the end
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours

- Whether a survey comes first
When something else is needed
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
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Design problems with the ductwork layout
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer.

FAQs for Highbrook
Can you work in Highbrook outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Highbrook keeps running as normal. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Is Highbrook within the area you cover?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Highbrook included. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
What types of premises do you cover?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. To get one, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
How much notice do you need?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Who is the responsible person?
The law calls them the responsible person. That’s generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. If you’re not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
How it works
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Visits to a village like Highbrook are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- We inspect the ducts at chosen points to see where cleaning is needed.
- The work area is protected and the system switched off.
- We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Clear the space around the work
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
