Oxfordshire · Ventilation duct cleaning
Ventilation cleaning in Tackley
Our technicians work in Tackley on TR19 Air cleaning of general supply and extract ventilation ductwork in commercial buildings. Out-of-hours visits, a fixed quote and a written report with pictures as standard.
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
- Ventilation full of debris from building work
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
About our ventilation duct cleaning in Tackley
Extract ducts from toilets, changing rooms and general areas collect dust and lint. Supply ducts pick up whatever gets past the filters. We clean both, keeping the work tidy and the building protected. We are often asked to deal with rooms that feel airless when the system runs and ducts that need a clean before handover, on hospitals and care homes, supply ductwork and offices and schools.
In a village or hamlet like Tackley, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
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 can quote for the whole system.
How it works
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Tackley.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
- We inspect the ducts at chosen points to see where cleaning is needed.
- The work area is protected and the system switched off.
- 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
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
Getting a quote
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Tackley
Damp ducts hold onto dirt. Where there’s condensation or a leak, dust clings and builds faster, which is harder to shift later.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Construction dust left in ducts after a refit
- Systems missing access panels
- Supply ducts with years of dust inside
- Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning
For schools like Tackley Church of England Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- The scale of the work
- How many systems or sites are involved
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Call or email with a few details and you’ll usually have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Keep filters changed on time
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Report dust blowing from grilles straight away
Before any works, think about the ducts. Turn off the system or cover the openings during dusty jobs.
Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as moisture makes dust stick.
Tackley: your questions answered
Is ventilation duct cleaning available in Tackley?
Yes, Tackley is covered. A fixed quote typically follows within one working day of the survey details.
Can you get to a site in Tackley?
Yes, Tackley is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
How do you deal with ducts you cannot get into?
The report shows exactly which parts weren’t reached. Access panels can be added where needed.
What information do you need?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
What does TR19 Air cover?
TR19® Air applies to the general ventilation in buildings like offices, schools and hospitals. Kitchen extract is covered separately, by TR19® Grease.
How much notice do you need?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
How long does ventilation cleaning take?
Typically, the work takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. Large buildings can be phased, often out of hours, to fit around the building.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and where several people have control, each can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
