About our ventilation duct cleaning in Mark Hall South
Every ventilation system has ducts bringing air in and ducts taking it out. Dust and debris build up in both, some of which ends up back in the rooms. Our cleaning covers the ducts, grilles and diffusers, to TR19® Air. The work covers offices and schools, hospitals and care homes and general extract ductwork, and common reasons people get in touch are odours carried round the building by the ducts and poor airflow from the vents.
Smaller buildings around Mark Hall South often keep their ventilation units in a roof void or plant cupboard, out of sight and easy to overlook. Filters, coils and drain trays need attention whatever the size of the unit.
A written report with photos 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.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- Parking and loading at the site
- The scale of the work
- The condition we find in the survey
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- Any previous report or certificate
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The postcode and the type of business
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.
What ventilation duct cleaning cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
- Ventilation that is undersized for the building
- Condensation caused by the building rather than the ducts
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on in Mark Hall South
- General extract ductwork
- Supply ductwork
- Offices and schools
- Hospitals and care homes
- Toilet extract systems
- Grilles and diffusers
Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Diary the next TR19® Air inspection
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
- Do not block grilles with furniture or storage
- Log every filter change
You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report after the clean. BESA advises keeping certificates in the maintenance log, with the date, location and technician on record.
TR19® Air works through regular inspection. Inspecting on a schedule catches build-up before it becomes a big clean.

What else we do in Mark Hall South
The process
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like Mark Hall South, so let us know how to reach it.
- First the system is surveyed, on site or from photos and drawings.
- Ducts are inspected at access points and the condition recorded.
- We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- A certificate and before and after pictures follow, with anything not reached recorded.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
Ask for a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, 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 so you know the cost before any work starts.
