In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Norton
We always start by inspecting. We look inside the ductwork at set points and record what’s there, then recommend cleaning where it’s needed. That keeps the work in proportion to the risk. Typical jobs include toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff and poor airflow from the vents, on supply ductwork, toilet extract systems and grilles and diffusers.
For a building in or near Norton, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Leave dust in the ductwork and it keeps building. The longer it’s left, the more there is to remove, and the more gets blown back into the rooms. In a place like Norton, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The condition of the system
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Any permits to work or inductions
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
Asking for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Norton: your questions answered
Do you work overnight in Norton?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Norton doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
Can you do ventilation duct cleaning in Norton?
Yes, Norton is covered. Get in touch with the details and we will arrange a survey.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, if we can see what we need. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
Not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurers ask for proof of cleaning to it. The legal duty sits in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not usually. We work when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends, so you keep your normal hours.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
What if there are not enough access panels?
Those sections are recorded as not cleaned in the report, so it’s clear what’s outstanding. New access panels can be installed so they’re covered next time.

What else we do in Norton
What happens on the day
We’re used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. The timing of a visit to Norton is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We survey the system from drawings, photos or a site visit.
- We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
- We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
- Debris is cleared from the duct runs, then grilles and diffusers are cleaned.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

Related advice
Part by part
Extract ductwork
Washroom extracts handle damp air, so the dust tends to cling. We clean them and note any damp or corrosion.
Schools and colleges
Holidays and weekends are the natural time to clean school ventilation, with nobody in the classrooms.
Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Keep to the inspection interval in your report
- Stick to the filter change schedule
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
The report lists the sections we cleaned and any we couldn’t reach, with photos before and after. We’ll suggest where new access panels would help.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as moisture makes dust stick.
