We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.

Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Oxford
A dusty duct in a building in Oxford is more than an eyesore. 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. We are often asked to deal with stuffy rooms and stale air and ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection, across hospitals and care homes, general extract ductwork and offices and schools.
A place as big as Oxford has offices, schools and hotels, many with ducted supply and extract ventilation. Dust in a supply duct ends up in the air people breathe, so cleaning is based on what an inspection finds.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, 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 ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Aftercare tips
So the system stays in good health:
- Keep filters changed on time
- Keep to the inspection interval in your report
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
- Watch for water stains around grilles
If there’s building work planned, protect the ventilation. Turn off the system or cover the openings during dusty jobs.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.

Ventilation in Oxford buildings
There are about 80 schools, colleges and universities, about 28 care, childcare and hospital premises and about 14 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses on the FSA’s food hygiene register in and around Oxford, up to about a mile and a half out. Classrooms, bedrooms and care spaces are often served by ducted air, and that ductwork collects dust over time. At about 52 miles from central London, Oxford sits well inside the area we cover. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours. About less than half a mile east of Oxford is Warneford Hospital, the nearest hospital. Clean air matters most where people are unwell, and that is as true in a care home as in a hospital.
Warneford Hospital, about less than half a mile east, is the nearest hospital to Oxford, and healthcare sites of every size need their supply air kept clean.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
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.
The process
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. A big building in Oxford doesn’t have to shut: the work can be spread across a few evenings or weekends.
- We survey the system from drawings, photos or a site visit.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Parking and loading at the site
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.
Helping us quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- A few general shots of the system
- The postcode and the type of business
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
To get a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We normally come back within one working day.
Honest limits
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
- Leaks from roofs, pipes or walls into the ductwork
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- Toilet extract systems
- Offices and schools
- Supply ductwork
- General extract ductwork
- Hospitals and care homes
- Grilles and diffusers
When to call us in Oxford
Why does it matter?: dusty ducts can blow debris back into rooms, restrict airflow and make fans work harder. In hospitals, care homes and schools, clean air is especially important.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
- Damp or stale smells from grilles
- Dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years
- Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection
Classrooms and halls at schools such as East Oxford Primary School are easiest to work in when pupils are away.
