Ventilation duct cleaning in Tye Green, done properly
We get into the ducts through access panels at intervals along the system. Where there are not enough panels to reach every section, we note the uncleaned parts in the report, and we can fit new panels so they’re covered next time. The work covers grilles and diffusers, general extract ductwork and supply ductwork, and the jobs we see most are grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt and blocked general extract ductwork.
For a building in or near Tye Green, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Tye Green
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Essex. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- How easy every part is to reach
- The size of the system
- The condition of the system
- The number of sites or systems
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
We can often survey from pictures. Try to include:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before any work starts.
Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Tye Green
Do you do school ventilation cleaning in Tye Green in the summer holidays?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. The FSA’s register shows about 2 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Tye Green. Send us your term dates when you call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll fit the work in.
Can you get to a site in Tye Green?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Tye Green is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you provide a report?
Yes. You get a certificate with the date, location and technician, plus a photo report.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
What is TR19® Air?
It covers ventilation hygiene for supply and extract systems in offices, schools, hospitals and other buildings. Kitchen extract is covered separately, by TR19® Grease.
What does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before any work starts.
What if there aren’t enough access panels?
The report shows exactly which parts weren’t reached. Access panels can be added where necessary.
When should our ventilation next be cleaned?
It depends on the building, how the system is used and what inspection finds. Inspecting regularly shows when cleaning is needed.
When to call us in Tye Green
Ventilation hygiene often gets left out of planned maintenance. Plant can be well serviced while the ductwork goes untouched for years.
Most sites get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
- Stuffy rooms and stale air
- Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
- Grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Tye Green, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Saffron Walden Community Hospital (about 3.3 miles north-west).
What to look for in a quote
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- What records you will receive afterwards
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
The process
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 a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Somewhere like Tye Green, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- We open the ductwork through its access panels.
- Before photos are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
- Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
- We take after photos and send the certificate and report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Move anything stored near the system
- Let us know about parking and loading
Get a fixed quote
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.
Advice
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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.
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 grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Washroom extracts handle damp air, which makes dirt stick. We clean them and note any damp or corrosion.
Schools and colleges

Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
- Watch for water stains around grilles
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
We recommend when the system should next be inspected, based on what we found. Put it in the diary now so it doesn’t slip.
Keep filters changed on time. Overloaded or poorly seated filters let dust straight through.
