About our ventilation duct cleaning in Offham
Dust in ventilation ductwork isn’t only a cleanliness issue. It can restrict airflow, make the system work harder and send dust back into occupied rooms. A clean puts the system back as it should be. Typical jobs include grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt and ductwork with too few access panels to clean, on toilet extract systems, supply ductwork and offices and schools.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Why deal with it now?
Clean ducts let the air move as designed, which puts less load on the fans. Leaving them means the plant works harder for the same result. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.

FAQs for Offham
Is Offham within the area you cover?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Offham is covered. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can a school’s ventilation in Offham be done out of term time?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 6 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Offham. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. TR19® itself isn’t law; it’s a BESA specification. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.
What about areas you cannot get to?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
How does TR19 Air differ from TR19 Grease?
TR19® Air applies to the general ventilation in buildings like offices, schools and hospitals. Kitchen extract is covered separately, by TR19® Grease.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. We always survey first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. Then you get a fixed quote.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
What affects the quote in Offham
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The times the site is available
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.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Your last certificate, test record or report
For ventilation duct cleaning in Offham, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. We normally send a fixed quote within one working day.
Aftercare tips
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Keep to the inspection interval in your report
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
- Report dust blowing from grilles right away
If there’s building work planned, protect the ventilation. Turn off the system or cover the openings during dusty jobs.
Regular inspection is the core of TR19® Air. Inspecting on a schedule catches build-up before it becomes a big clean.
What a clean won’t put right
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
- Design problems with the ductwork layout
- Leaking or broken duct sections
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think before you book.

The process
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Offham can be planned properly.
- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- We open the ductwork through its access panels.
- We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
- Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate and report issued.
Getting ready for the visit
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
