Common questions in Shirrell Heath
Can the work in Shirrell Heath be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Shirrell Heath needn’t be disturbed. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you cover smaller places like Shirrell Heath?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we’ve been trading since 2009.
Do you inspect before cleaning?
Yes. Inspection is the start of the TR19® Air approach and record what we find. We recommend cleaning where the inspection shows it’s due.
Do you clean grilles and diffusers?
Yes. Removable grilles come down for cleaning and go back up. Fixed ones are cleaned in place.
What information do you need?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few photos and any previous report.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. Landlords, facilities managers and managing agents can also hold responsibility.
What if there aren’t enough access panels?
Those sections are recorded as not cleaned in the report, so it’s clear what’s outstanding. New access panels can be installed so they’re covered next time.
Ventilation duct cleaning in Shirrell Heath
Toilet, washroom and general extract ducts gather dust, fluff and debris. Supply ducts carry anything the filters miss. We clean both, keeping the work tidy and the building protected. We are often asked to deal with dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers and ventilation full of debris from building work, on offices and schools, grilles and diffusers and hospitals and care homes.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How it works
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Shirrell Heath.
- First the system is surveyed, on site or from photos and drawings.
- We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
Before we arrive
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
Ask for a quote
For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will usually have a quote within one working day.

What ventilation duct cleaning looks like in Shirrell Heath
There are about 3 schools, colleges and universities and about 3 care, childcare and hospital premises on the FSA’s food hygiene register within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Shirrell Heath. Busy, occupied buildings like these are where clean supply air matters most. About 2.9 miles south of Shirrell Heath is Knowle Hospital, the nearest hospital. Healthcare ventilation is a good example of why supply ducts need inspecting: the air goes straight to patients.
School buildings such as St John the Baptist Church of England Primary School are normally done in the holidays, so classrooms aren’t disturbed.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
- Include grilles in the cleaning rota
- Protect the system from construction dust
The report lists the sections we cleaned and any we couldn’t reach, with pictures before and after. If access panels are needed, we will say where.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as moisture makes dust stick.
Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Shirrell Heath
Even good filters let some dust through, so fine dust settles in supply ductwork over the years. Extract ducts collect whatever the rooms give off: dust, fibres and lint.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
- Damp or stale smells from grilles
- Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
Hospitals such as Knowle Hospital (about 2.9 miles south) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Shirrell Heath are no different.

Schools and colleges
We plan the work around the school calendar and agree access with the site team.
Offices and retail
Fit-outs in offices and shops leave dust in the ventilation. Cleaning before the new occupants move in makes sense.
