How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Old Shoreham
In a building in Old Shoreham, the people inside spend hours breathing what the ventilation delivers. Clean ducts are part of a healthy building, alongside filter changes and AHU maintenance. Typical jobs include blocked general extract ductwork and ventilation full of debris from building work, on general extract ductwork, toilet extract systems and supply ductwork.
In a village or hamlet like Old Shoreham, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Questions from Old Shoreham
Can the work in Old Shoreham be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Old Shoreham needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Do you cover smaller places like Old Shoreham?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, where the photos show enough. If not, a site survey comes first, and the quote follows that.
How far ahead should we book?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes, on every job. We check the layout, access and condition before giving a fixed quote.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
You will get a fixed price before we start. It takes into account:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The number of sites or systems
- How big the system is
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re unsure, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- A few general shots of the system
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Your last certificate, test record or report
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: 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.
How it 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’s 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 a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Somewhere as small as Old Shoreham, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- The work area is protected and the system switched off.
- We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
How to get a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- Don’t block grilles with furniture or storage
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
Before any works, think about the ducts. Turn off the system or cover the openings during dusty jobs.
Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as moisture makes dust stick.
What staff can safely do
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Why deal with it now?
Clean ducts let the air move as designed, which puts less load on the fans. Dirty ducts make the whole system work harder. If the system at a site near Old Shoreham fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you will get one fixed quote.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Old Shoreham
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
What the work involves, part by part
Extract ductwork
A dirty extract duct makes its fan work harder. A clean duct takes the load off.
Offices and retail
Refits in commercial space often leave construction dust in the ducts. Cleaning before the new occupants move in makes sense.
