Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Standlake
Dust in ventilation ductwork isn’t only a cleanliness issue. It slows the air, strains the fans and can be blown back out of the grilles. Cleaning restores the clear airway the system was designed with. Common call-outs are for systems missing access panels and ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection, on hospitals and care homes, toilet extract systems and supply ductwork.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step
We are used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Standlake before we set off.
- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- Before pictures are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- We take after photos and send the certificate and report.
Before we arrive
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Tell us where we can park and unload

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Advice
What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
What ventilation duct cleaning can’t fix
Not every problem is solved by ventilation duct cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Problems with how the system is controlled
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
- Damaged ductwork beyond cleaning
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think before booking.
Where we work
- Toilet extract systems
- Hospitals and care homes
- Offices and schools
- Grilles and diffusers
- General extract ductwork
- Supply ductwork
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
You’ll get a fixed price before work begins. It takes into account:
- How big the system is
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The condition of the system
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- A few general shots of the system
- The postcode and the type of business
- Your last certificate, test record or report

Different parts, different methods
Offices and retail
Refits in commercial space often leave construction dust in the ducts. A clean before handover is a sensible step.
Extract ductwork
General extract ductwork removes stale air from rooms, toilets and washrooms. They collect dust, lint and fibres and slowly narrow.
