About our ventilation duct cleaning in New Hinksey
We always start by inspecting. The ducts are opened at access points and the condition recorded, then recommend cleaning where it’s needed. That way the work matches the real condition. Common call-outs are for stuffy rooms and stale air and dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers, across hospitals and care homes, grilles and diffusers and general extract ductwork.
Visits to a place like New Hinksey are fitted around opening hours. The work is the same as in any town: inspect, clean, record.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, 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 affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Parking and loading at the site
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
What to send for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Your last certificate, test record or report
If you need ventilation duct cleaning in New Hinksey, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote typically follows within one working day.
Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in New Hinksey
Building work is one of the biggest sources of debris in ducts, particularly if it’s left running while work goes on. Plaster, wood and masonry dust can sit in the ducts for years.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
- Musty smells from the ventilation
- Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning
Wherever a school like New Hinksey Church of England Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.

How it works
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Your opening hours decide when we come to New Hinksey, not ours.
- We survey the system from drawings, pictures or a site visit.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- The area below is protected and the system switched off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
- Diary the next TR19® Air inspection
- Don’t block grilles with furniture or storage
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.
TR19® Air works through regular inspection. Inspecting on a schedule catches build-up before it becomes a big clean.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
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 can quote for the whole system.
