About our ventilation duct cleaning in Newbury

Ventilation duct cleaning is something we carry out for buildings in Newbury and right across West Berkshire, in offices, schools, healthcare buildings and retail. Each building gets a survey first and a fixed quote. If you have supply ducts with years of dust inside and stuffy rooms and stale air, we can help, from offices and schools, toilet extract systems and supply ductwork onwards.

For a school, surgery or office in Newbury, cleaning is planned around opening hours: evenings, weekends or school holidays.

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.

How the visit works

We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. We arrive in Newbury once you’ve closed and leave the site ready for the morning.

  1. We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
  2. We open the ductwork through its access panels.
  3. We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
  4. We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
  5. After photos are taken and the certificate and report issued.

How to prepare

  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Getting a quote

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos 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 we start.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Newbury

From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.

When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

Between visits

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:

  • Do not block grilles with furniture or storage
  • Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
  • Keep to the inspection interval in your report
  • File each ventilation report with the building records

The report lists the sections we cleaned and any we couldn’t reach, with pictures before and after. We’ll suggest where new access panels would help.

Make sure there are enough access panels to inspect and clean the ducts. The worst build-up tends to be where no one can look.

What ventilation duct cleaning looks like in Newbury

Going by the FSA’s register, there are about 9 schools, colleges and universities, about 13 care, childcare and hospital premises and about 4 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses serving food within about 1.5 miles of central Newbury. Where buildings like these have air handling units, filters, coils and drain trays need regular attention. About 53 miles out from central London, Newbury is part of the South East area we work across. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. For Newbury, the closest hospital is West Berkshire Community Hospital, roughly 1.5 miles east. Healthcare ventilation is a good example of why supply ducts need inspecting: the air goes straight to patients.

West Berkshire Community Hospital, about 1.5 miles east, is the nearest hospital to Newbury, and healthcare sites of every size need their supply air kept clean. Classrooms and halls at schools such as St Nicolas C.E. Junior School are easiest to work in when pupils are away. If you manage shops or offices close to Newbury station, a TR19® Air inspection shows whether the ductwork needs cleaning.

Different parts, different methods

Hospitals and care homes

Dust control matters during work in occupied care settings. We protect the work area and take everything away.

Schools and colleges

The work is fitted around term dates and events and agree access with the site team.

Honest limits

Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
  • A system that is not designed to move enough air
  • Leaking or broken duct sections

If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on in Newbury

  • Supply ductwork
  • Grilles and diffusers
  • Toilet extract systems
  • General extract ductwork
  • Offices and schools
  • Hospitals and care homes

What staff can safely do

Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.

If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.

Questions from Newbury

Do you offer ventilation duct cleaning in Newbury?

Yes, Newbury is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day of the survey details.

Can a school’s ventilation in Newbury be done out of term time?

Yes, holiday work suits schools best. With about 9 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Newbury, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the dates the site is empty.

What happens if you cannot reach some of it?

We never leave them off the paperwork. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

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.

Do you survey the system first?

Yes, always. We check the layout, access and condition before giving a fixed quote.

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.

What’s TR19?

BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.

Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?

In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. That is generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning

Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What state the system is in
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • The scale of the work
  • Parking and loading at the site

The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

What we need to know

A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:

  • Any previous report or certificate
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site

The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
