Ventilation duct cleaning in Telscombe Cliffs, done properly
Inspection comes first. We look inside the ductwork at set points and record what’s there, and cleaning is recommended where the inspection shows it’s due. That way the work matches the real condition. If you have musty smells from the ventilation and grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt, we can put it right, from supply ductwork, general extract ductwork and offices and schools onwards.
In a smaller place like Telscombe Cliffs, buildings with ducted ventilation are more likely to be a school, a surgery, a care home or a small business unit than an office block. Even a small system collects dust in its ducts and filters.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

When it’s something else
Not every problem is solved by ventilation duct cleaning, and we will tell you before we start. It does not solve:
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
- A system that isn’t designed to move enough air
- Building management settings that run the plant
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- General extract ductwork
- Offices and schools
- Grilles and diffusers
- Toilet extract systems
- Hospitals and care homes
- Supply ductwork
Common problems we fix in Telscombe Cliffs
Refits and building work send dust into ventilation systems, especially when the system runs during the work. That dust can stay in the ducts long after the builders leave.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
- Toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
If you manage a school such as Telscombe Cliffs Community Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

- Whether VAT is included
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
How it works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Your opening hours decide when we come to Telscombe Cliffs, not ours.
- We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
- We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- Debris is cleared from the duct runs, then grilles and diffusers are cleaned.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Move anything stored near the system
How to get a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before work begins.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Don’t run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
- Include grilles in the cleaning rota
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
Before any works, think about the ducts. Turn off the system or cover the openings during dusty jobs.
Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overdue or badly fitted filters let dust into the supply ducts.
Why deal with it now?
Starting with an inspection means you only clean what needs it. Putting the inspection off just means you do not know where you stand. It’s easy to lose track of when the work was last done on a quieter site.
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
