Ventilation duct cleaning in Hinchley Wood
Beyond the kitchen, TR19® Air covers the ordinary supply and extract systems that serve offices, schools and other buildings. It works by inspecting first and cleaning where the risk calls for it, so we look before we clean. The work covers hospitals and care homes, grilles and diffusers and offices and schools, and the jobs we see most are musty smells from the ventilation and systems missing access panels.
In a smaller place like Hinchley Wood, buildings with ducted ventilation are more likely to be a school, a surgery, a care home or a small business unit than an office block. Even a small system collects dust in its ducts and filters.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The size of the system
- The condition we find in the survey
- How many systems or sites are involved
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
What to send for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Problems your staff have spotted
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.
What we do, step by step
There are three stages on the day: 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 pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Evenings, weekends or a closed day all work for a site in a place like Hinchley Wood.
- 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.
- We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
- The report records what was cleaned, anything not reached and a next inspection date.
How to prepare
- Clear the space around the work
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
How to get a quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
Advice
Managing agents and facilities teams in Hinchley Wood
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Common questions in Hinchley Wood
Can you come to Hinchley Wood after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
Can ventilation in schools around Hinchley Wood be cleaned out of term?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. There are about 17 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Hinchley Wood. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.
Can you quote from photos?
Often, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Do we get a certificate after the clean?
Yes, both a certificate and a photo report. The report lists what was cleaned, anything not reached and the next inspection date.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
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 in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. If you are not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.

Other services in Hinchley Wood
Different parts, different methods
Extract ductwork
A dirty extract duct makes its fan work harder. A clean duct takes the load off.
Offices and retail
Multi-let buildings may share ductwork between tenants. We plan access with the managing agent.
What happens if it’s left?
After building work, cleaning the ventilation before people move back in makes sense. Otherwise construction dust left in the ducts is blown out once the system runs. When a site near Hinchley Wood shuts unexpectedly, the people who rely on it notice at once.
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

What ventilation duct cleaning can’t fix
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
- Problems with how the system is controlled
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Toilet extract systems
- Hospitals and care homes
- General extract ductwork
- Supply ductwork
- Offices and schools
- Grilles and diffusers
Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Diary the next TR19® Air inspection
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Watch for water stains around grilles
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
Before any works, think about the ducts. Turn off the system or cover the openings during dusty jobs.
Fit access panels where the ductwork cannot be reached. Hidden sections are the ones that get worst.
