Ventilation Duct Cleaning in Shackleford
Ventilation duct cleaning in Shackleford from ventilation hygiene specialists trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.

Ventilation duct cleaning in Shackleford, done properly
Every ventilation system has ducts bringing air in and ducts taking it out. Dust and debris build up in both, some of which ends up back in the rooms. We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers to TR19® Air. The work covers supply ductwork, general extract ductwork and offices and schools, and people most often call us about construction dust left in ducts after a refit and grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt.
For a building in or near Shackleford, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
We have been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

When to call us in Shackleford
Ventilation hygiene often gets left out of planned maintenance. Plant can be well serviced while the ductwork goes untouched for years.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
- Stuffy rooms and stale air
- Grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt
- Musty smells from the ventilation
Hospitals such as Milford Hospital (about 2.9 miles south-east) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Shackleford are no different.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- How big the system is
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- A few general shots of the system
- The postcode and the type of business
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
What a clean will not put right
Ventilation duct cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. It will not put right:
- Design problems with the ductwork layout
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
- Problems with how the system is controlled
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Shackleford questions
Can you work in Shackleford outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Shackleford keeps running as normal. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
Can ventilation in schools around Shackleford be cleaned out of term?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. There are about 2 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Shackleford. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Is Shackleford in your area?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, and that includes Shackleford.
Do we need to close while you work?
Usually not. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits so parts stay in use.
What should I send you?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
Do you clean grilles and diffusers?
Yes. Removable grilles come down for cleaning and go back up. The rest are cleaned where they are.
How does TR19 Air differ from TR19 Grease?
The two cover different systems: general ventilation for TR19® Air and kitchen extract for TR19® Grease. TR19® Air takes an inspection-led, risk-based approach.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
Part by part
Offices and retail
Fit-outs in offices and shops leave dust in the ventilation. A clean before handover is a sensible step.
Extract ductwork
A dirty extract duct makes its fan work harder. A clean duct takes the load off.
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. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.

Shackleford is about 32 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours. The nearest hospital to Shackleford is Milford Hospital, about 2.9 miles south-east. Healthcare buildings depend on clean supply and extract ventilation, and the same applies to surgeries, clinics and care homes.

How the visit works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report.

- First the system is surveyed, on site or from photos and drawings.
- We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
- We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
