About our ventilation duct cleaning in Thornborough
When the work is finished, you get a TR19® certificate and before and after pictures. It shows what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the system should next be inspected, giving the ventilation a clean bill of health on paper. The work covers toilet extract systems, hospitals and care homes and offices and schools, and common reasons people get in touch are poor airflow from the vents and dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years.
In a village or hamlet like Thornborough, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
What happens on the day
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. In a small place like Thornborough, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- 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.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
How to get a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Questions from Thornborough
Can you get to a site in Thornborough?
Yes, Thornborough is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can the work in Thornborough be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes, on every job. We check the layout, access and condition before giving a fixed quote.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
What happens to the waste?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
What information do you need?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not usually. Visits are timed for when the area is closed, such as overnight or at a weekend, so the site can carry on as normal.
How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?
There’s no single interval; under TR19® Air, inspection decides. We suggest a next inspection date after every visit.
What a clean won’t put right
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Building management settings that run the plant
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Grilles and diffusers
- Supply ductwork
- Hospitals and care homes

- Offices and schools
What affects the quote in Thornborough
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- How many systems or sites are involved
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before we start.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.
Why it’s worth doing now in Thornborough
Dust in ducts doesn’t go away on its own. The longer it’s left, the more there is to remove, and more of it finds its way back into the building. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll talk you through it.
Why us?
- Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover
