Ventilation duct cleaning in Jacob's Post, done properly
Ductwork is reached through access panels along each run. Where there aren’t enough panels to reach every section, we note the uncleaned parts in the report, and new access panels can be installed for the next clean. If you are dealing with grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt and duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Jacob's Post, ducted ventilation is normally limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

What affects the quote in Jacob's Post
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- The times the site is available
- How easy every part is to reach
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The size of the system
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- 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
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Your last certificate, test record or report
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.
What we do, step by step
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. The timing of a visit to Jacob's Post is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We survey the system from drawings, pictures or a site visit.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Clear loose items from the work area

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Do not block grilles with furniture or storage
- Keep filters changed on time
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
If there’s building work planned, protect the ventilation. Turn off the system or cover the openings during dusty jobs.
Do not let construction dust into the ventilation by turning it off or covering the openings.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across West Sussex. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
When something else is needed
Ventilation duct cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- A system that is not designed to move enough air
- Condensation caused by the building rather than the ducts
- Damaged ductwork beyond cleaning
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Offices and schools

Jacob's Post buildings and their air
The FSA’s food hygiene register lists about 5 schools, colleges and universities and about 25 hospitals, care homes and childcare premises with registered kitchens or food service in Jacob's Post and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Many buildings of this kind have supply and extract ductwork that gathers dust and needs inspecting. About 1.2 miles west of Jacob's Post is The Dene Hospital, the nearest hospital. Healthcare ventilation is a good example of why supply ducts need inspecting: the air goes straight to patients. Jacob's Post is about 37 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.
If you manage shops or offices close to Burgess Hill station, a TR19® Air inspection shows whether the ductwork needs cleaning. The Dene Hospital, about 1.2 miles west, is the nearest hospital to Jacob's Post, and healthcare sites of every size need their supply air kept clean. Wherever a school like The Gattons Infant School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.
Jacob's Post is about 1 mile west of Burgess Hill, in West Sussex.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Jacob's Post
Do you work at weekends in Jacob's Post?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can you clean school ventilation in Jacob's Post during the holidays?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Food Standards Agency records list about 5 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Jacob's Post. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Do you clean grilles and diffusers?
Yes. We clean the grilles and diffusers along with the ductwork, so the room side is clean too.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
How much time does a ventilation clean need?
The clean takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. The survey gives us a clearer idea, and you can call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email to arrange it.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, for many jobs. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and we usually come back within one working day. If pictures aren’t enough, we’ll survey first.
What happens to the waste?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. We don’t leave it behind.
