About our ventilation duct cleaning in Wantage

Every clean ends with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. 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. Typical jobs include dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers and ductwork that hasn’t been inspected, on toilet extract systems, general extract ductwork and offices and schools.

Buildings in towns like Wantage often have ventilation added in stages, with units on the roof or in a plant room. An inspection shows which parts need cleaning, so you are not paying for more than the system needs.

A written report with pictures follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What we do, step by step

Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one, and we clear up before we go. Let us know how to reach the roof or plant area at your site in Wantage, and where the van can go.

  1. First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
  2. We open the ductwork through its access panels.
  3. Before pictures are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
  4. Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
  5. After photos are taken and the certificate and report issued.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Advice

FAQs for Wantage

Can you come to Wantage after we close?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Wantage can fit around your hours. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we will plan around them.

Do you offer ventilation duct cleaning in Wantage?

Yes. Our area runs across London and the South East, Wantage included. Get in touch with the details and we will arrange a survey.

How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost?

Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. To get one, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.

How do you keep the site clean during the work?

With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.

When should our ventilation next be cleaned?

TR19® Air is risk-based, so cleaning follows inspection rather than a fixed calendar. We suggest a next inspection date after each visit.

Can you price the work without visiting?

Yes, for many jobs. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote usually follows within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we’ll say so.

What should I send you?

Some pictures and a quick description of the system plus the address and your hours. If we need more, we will ask.

What types of premises do you cover?

We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.

Different parts, different methods

Schools and colleges

We plan the work around the school calendar, with access agreed with the caretaker or site manager.

Supply ductwork

Supply ductwork delivers conditioned air to each room. Fine dust that gets past the filters settles along the runs, and we remove it through access panels.

Aftercare tips

How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Log every filter change
  • File each ventilation report with the building records
  • Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
  • Protect the system from construction dust

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

Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overdue or badly fitted filters let dust into the supply ducts.

What happens if it’s left?

Smells, dust around grilles and stuffy rooms are signs the system needs attention. Acting early keeps the clean simpler. An inspector or insurer will want to see recent records, so it makes sense to have them ready.

Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

When to call us in Wantage

Filters never catch everything, so fine dust settles in supply ductwork over the years. Extract ducts pick up dust, fibres and fluff from the rooms they serve.

Clients typically contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Ducts that need a clean before handover
  • Poor airflow from the vents
  • Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
  • Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection

For schools like St Mary's School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.

What your quote should include

  • Whether the quote shows VAT
  • Whether the price is fixed
  • What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
  • Whether a written report and pictures are included
