Old Dean ventilation duct cleaning
For ventilation duct cleaning in Old Dean, one call is all it takes: survey, fixed quote, work and sign-off. CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, ISO 9001 and fully insured.
- Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
- Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning
- Construction dust left in ducts after a refit
What happens on the day
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Evenings, weekends or a closed day all work for a site in a place like Old Dean.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Clear the space around the work

Advice
About our ventilation duct cleaning in Old Dean
When the work is finished, you get a TR19® certificate and before and after photos. It shows what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the system should next be inspected, so you have it all on record. If you have systems with no record of inspection or cleaning and dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers, we can help.
Around a place like Old Dean, ventilation systems tend to be in schools, surgeries, care homes and workplaces. Smaller systems still gather dust and need inspecting.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Do you need ventilation duct cleaning in Old Dean?
Most ductwork is out of sight, so dust collects unseen. The grilles get a wipe, but what’s behind them does not.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Systems missing access panels
- Toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
Hospitals such as Frimley Park Hospital (about 2.4 miles south-west) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Old Dean are no different.
What your quote should include
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Whether a survey comes first
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
Keeping the system healthy
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Stick to the filter change schedule
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Do not block grilles with furniture or storage
- Include grilles in the cleaning rota
Share the report with whoever looks after the building’s maintenance, so the history stays together. Year on year, it shows how fast dust builds up.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as moisture makes dust stick.

Old Dean questions
Do you clean school ventilation in Old Dean in the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 16 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Old Dean. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Can you work in Old Dean outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Old Dean keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
How does TR19 Air differ from TR19 Grease?
It’s BESA’s guidance for ventilation hygiene in general supply and extract systems, rather than kitchen extract. It’s risk-based and led by inspection, and kitchen extract falls under TR19® Grease.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
In many cases, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
What types of premises do you cover?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Old Dean
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
When it’s something else
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
- A system that isn’t designed to move enough air
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer.
Parts of the system we cover
- Hospitals and care homes
- General extract ductwork
- Toilet extract systems
- Grilles and diffusers
- Supply ductwork
- Offices and schools
