Ventilation duct cleaning in Wickham Common
We get into the ducts through access panels along each run. If some sections can’t be reached, the report says so, and new access panels can be installed so they’re covered next time. If you are dealing with ductwork that hasn’t been inspected and extract ducts clogged with lint and dust, we can help.
Work in a small place like Wickham Common starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Wickham Common: your questions answered
Do you clean school ventilation in Wickham Common in the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. There are about 2 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Wickham Common. Send us your term dates when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we will fit the work in.
Can you work in Wickham Common outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. When you call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
How much notice do you need?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes usually come back within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?
Inspection should decide it, in line with TR19® Air. Busy or sensitive buildings may need it more often.
Are you accredited?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.
Will you look at the ducts before quoting?
Yes, on every job. We check the layout, access and condition, so the quote is fixed before any work starts.
Do you work in Wickham Common?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of South East England, Wickham Common included.
The process
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Wickham Common.
- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
- Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
- We take after pictures and send the certificate and report.
How to prepare
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Clear loose items from the work area
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. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we start.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Wickham Common
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Wickham Common and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
How the job changes from site to site
Schools and colleges
Classrooms full of people, paper and coats produce plenty of dust. Inspection shows when cleaning is due.
Hospitals and care homes
In healthcare and care settings, there’s no quiet time. The work is sequenced with staff so care carries on.
Aftercare tips
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
- Log every filter change
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
Pass the paperwork to your facilities or maintenance team, so it’s all in one place. Over time, it shows how quickly the system gets dirty.
Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overdue or badly fitted filters let dust into the supply ducts.
What we’re called out for in Wickham Common
Damp ducts hold onto dirt. Condensation and leaks turn loose dust into a stubborn layer, and it becomes harder to remove.
Most sites get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Construction dust left in ducts after a refit
- Odours carried round the building by the ducts
- Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
- Dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Wickham Common, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Knowle Hospital (about 1.6 miles south-west).

Ventilation in Wickham Common buildings
There are about 8 care, childcare and hospital premises on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of central Wickham Common. Busy, occupied buildings like these are where clean supply air matters most. Knowle Hospital is the nearest hospital, about 1.6 miles south-west of Wickham Common. If you run a surgery, clinic or care home, your ventilation deserves the same care as a hospital’s, on a smaller scale.
School buildings such as Wickham Church of England Primary School are normally done in the holidays, so classrooms are not disturbed.
