About our ventilation duct cleaning in The Pound

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. The work covers offices and schools, grilles and diffusers and general extract ductwork, and common reasons people get in touch are supply ducts with years of dust inside and systems with no record of inspection or cleaning.

Somewhere as small as The Pound, ducted ventilation is usually limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.

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. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What ventilation duct cleaning can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:

  • Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
  • Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
  • Ventilation that is undersized for the building

Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Where we work

  • Offices and schools
  • Grilles and diffusers
  • Supply ductwork
  • General extract ductwork
  • Hospitals and care homes
  • Toilet extract systems

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:

  • Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
  • Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
  • Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
  • Flag any dust coming out of the vents

Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters let dust straight back in.

Make sure there are enough access panels to inspect and clean the ducts. The worst build-up tends to be where no one can look.

FAQs for The Pound

Is The Pound in your area for ventilation duct cleaning?

Yes, The Pound is covered. Get in touch with the details and we will arrange a survey.

Can you come to The Pound after we close?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in The Pound can fit around your hours. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we will plan around them.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, where the photos show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, and the quote follows that.

How much notice should we give?

It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.

Are you accredited?

BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.

How does TR19 Air differ from TR19 Grease?

It’s BESA’s guidance for ventilation hygiene in general supply and extract systems, rather than kitchen extract. It works on inspection and risk, while TR19® Grease covers kitchen extract systems.

How much time does a ventilation clean need?

Expect it to take from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. How much ductwork there is and how easily it’s reached decide the rest.

How do you protect the area?

Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.

What staff can safely do

Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.

Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.

Common problems we fix in The Pound

Ventilation hygiene often gets left out of planned maintenance. Plant can be well serviced while the ductwork goes untouched for years.

It’s time to book a visit if you see:

  • Odours carried round the building by the ducts
  • Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
  • Poor airflow from the vents
  • Ductwork with too few access panels to clean

If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near The Pound, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Bexhill Hospital (about 5.2 miles south-east).

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

What happens on the day

Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to The Pound run smoothly.

  1. We look at the system and any earlier reports.
  2. We inspect the ducts at chosen points to see where cleaning is needed.
  3. The work area is protected and the system switched off.
  4. We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
  5. We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.

Before we arrive

  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

Getting a quote

Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.
