How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Westwell Leacon
Toilet, washroom and general extract ducts gather dust, fluff and debris. Supply ducts carry anything the filters miss. Both are cleaned, with the area protected and the mess contained. Common call-outs are for grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt and construction dust left in ducts after a refit, on hospitals and care homes, offices and schools and grilles and diffusers.
In a village or hamlet like Westwell Leacon, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What we do, step by step
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Westwell Leacon before we set off.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
- The report records what was cleaned, anything not reached and a next inspection date.
Before we arrive

Part by part
Schools and colleges
Schools and colleges are easiest to clean during the holidays, with nobody in the classrooms.
Extract ductwork
Extract ducts take air out of toilets, washrooms and general areas. Lint, dust and fibres gather inside and restrict the flow over time.

Looking after it afterwards
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Don’t run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Keep to the inspection interval in your report
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
Share the report with whoever looks after the building’s maintenance, so it’s all in one place. Over time, it shows how quickly the system gets dirty.
Do not let construction dust into the ventilation by switching it off or covering the grilles.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
What happens if it’s left?
Facilities teams are regularly asked to show evidence of ventilation hygiene. Having a recent certificate and photo report for a building in Westwell Leacon answers the question. If the system at a site near Westwell Leacon fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.
