About our ventilation duct cleaning in Shillington
Every ventilation system has ducts bringing air in and ducts taking it out. Over time, both collect dust and debris, some of which ends up back in the rooms. We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers to TR19® Air. The work covers offices and schools, hospitals and care homes and general extract ductwork, and people most often call us about extract ducts clogged with lint and dust and ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

The process
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Somewhere as small as Shillington, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- 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.
- The report records what was cleaned, anything not reached and a next inspection date.
Preparing for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The condition of the system
- A single visit or a regular plan
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before we start.
What to send for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The site address and the type of premises
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.
What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.

Different parts, different methods
Hospitals and care homes
People in hospitals and care homes can be more vulnerable to poor air. Inspecting and cleaning to TR19® Air supports good air quality.
Grilles and diffusers
Dark streaks round a ceiling diffuser can be a sign of dirty supply air. The grilles are cleaned and the ducts behind inspected.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Shillington
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
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.
What ventilation duct cleaning can’t fix
Ventilation duct cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Ventilation that’s undersized for the building
- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will say what we think before booking.
