What happens if it’s left?

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 are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Ventilation duct cleaning in Queenborough, done properly
Inspection comes first. The ducts are opened at access points and the condition recorded, and cleaning is recommended where the inspection shows it’s due. That way the work matches the real condition. We’re often asked to deal with ventilation full of debris from building work and systems missing access panels, across hospitals and care homes, general extract ductwork and offices and schools.
Around a place like Queenborough, ventilation systems tend to be in schools, surgeries, care homes and workplaces. Even a small system collects dust in its ducts and filters.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The condition of the system
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before we start.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Problems your staff have spotted
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.
What ventilation duct cleaning cannot fix
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- A system that isn’t designed to move enough air
- Leaks from roofs, pipes or walls into the ductwork
- Damaged ductwork beyond cleaning
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What the work covers
- Toilet extract systems
- Grilles and diffusers
- Hospitals and care homes
- Supply ductwork
- Offices and schools
- General extract ductwork
Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Do not block grilles with furniture or storage
- Don’t run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Diary the next TR19® Air inspection
- Stick to the filter change schedule
The report lists the sections we cleaned and any we couldn’t reach, backed up by before and after photos. If access panels are needed, we will say where.
TR19® Air works through regular inspection. Scheduled inspections spot dust before it becomes a major job.
What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. For a place like Queenborough, we load the van from the survey notes so the work can be done in one visit where possible.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
Getting a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
Part by part
Schools and colleges
Holidays and weekends are the natural time to clean school ventilation, with nobody in the classrooms.
Extract ductwork
Extract ducts take air out of toilets, washrooms and general areas. They collect dust, lint and fibres and restrict the flow over time.
