Ventilation duct cleaning in Hungerford
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. We are often asked to deal with poor airflow from the vents and systems missing access panels, on grilles and diffusers, supply ductwork and offices and schools.
In a place like Hungerford, air handling units are often tucked into roof spaces or small plant rooms, out of sight and easy to overlook. Every unit, large or small, has filters, coils and a drain tray to keep clean.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What we are called out for in Hungerford
Refits and building work send dust into ventilation systems, especially when the system runs during the work. That dust can stay in the ducts long after the builders leave.
Most sites get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff
- Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
- Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
For schools like Hungerford Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.

Leave it or put it right?
A clean system moves air more easily, which takes strain off the fans. Leaving them means the plant works harder for the same result. You choose the date of a planned visit, and a breakdown never asks.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
Why book with us
- Full insurance on every job
- A fixed price before any work starts
- We diagnose before we treat
- CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001

How it 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 pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Visits to a place like Hungerford are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the survey says the job needs.
- We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
- We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
Getting ready for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Site rules, permits and inductions
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.
What to send for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The site address and the type of premises
To get a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We normally come back within one working day.

We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
How long will the duct cleaning take?
Expect it to take from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. The size of the system and the access make the biggest difference.

- Building management settings that run the plant
- Ventilation that is undersized for the building
- Leaking or broken duct sections
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Different parts, different methods
Supply ductwork
Supply ductwork delivers conditioned air to each room. Dust that slips past the filters builds up inside, and we remove it through access panels.
Grilles and diffusers
Where they come out, grilles are taken down and cleaned, then put back.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
- Do not block grilles with furniture or storage
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
Change filters on schedule so the clean ducts stay clean. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.
