Multi-site and managed buildings

If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
About our ventilation duct cleaning in Sole Street
When the work is finished, you get a TR19® certificate and before and after pictures. The report lists what we cleaned, any sections not reached and a recommended next inspection, so you have it all on record. If you have ventilation full of debris from building work and grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt, we can help.
For a building in or near Sole Street, 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.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after every visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

When it’s something else
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Condensation caused by the building rather than the ducts
- Design problems with the ductwork layout
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Schools and colleges
Schools and colleges are easiest to clean during the holidays, when classrooms are empty.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

The process
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, tidy up and leave you the report. The visit itself takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Sole Street, let us know and we will plan around it.
- We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- Debris is cleared from the duct runs, then grilles and diffusers are cleaned.
- A certificate and before and after pictures follow, with anything not reached recorded.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
Getting a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we start.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- What state the system is in
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Whether several sites go on one quote
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
We can often survey from pictures. The most useful are:
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The postcode and the type of business
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You will normally have a quote within one working day.

Leave it or put it right?
Dust streaks around grilles and stale rooms suggest the ducts need looking at. Dealing with them now stops them getting worse. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
