Why it’s worth doing now in Yarnton
After building work, cleaning the ventilation before people move back in makes sense. Otherwise the dust from the works comes out of the grilles once it’s switched back on. Planning a trip to Yarnton ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before we start.

Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Yarnton
Every clean ends with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. The report lists what we cleaned, any sections not reached and a recommended next inspection, giving the ventilation a clean bill of health on paper. Typical jobs include musty smells from the ventilation and blocked general extract ductwork, across hospitals and care homes, offices and schools and general extract ductwork.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

FAQs for Yarnton
Is Yarnton within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Do you work overnight in Yarnton?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Yarnton keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
How often should ventilation ductwork be cleaned?
TR19® Air is risk-based, so cleaning follows inspection rather than a fixed calendar. Each report recommends when the system should next be inspected.
Do you clean grilles and diffusers?
Yes. Where they can be removed, they’re taken down, cleaned and refitted. Fixed ones are cleaned in place.
How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Call for a fixed quote, normally ready within one working day.
What happens to the waste?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
Do you provide a report?
Yes, both a certificate and a photo report. It also notes unreached sections and a recommended next inspection.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. For a village or hamlet like Yarnton, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- 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.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- We take after photos and send the certificate and report.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Advice
What a clean will not put right
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Ventilation that’s undersized for the building
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Where we work
- Grilles and diffusers
- Supply ductwork
- Hospitals and care homes
- Toilet extract systems
- Offices and schools
- General extract ductwork
Aftercare tips
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters let dust straight back in.
Regular inspection is the core of TR19® Air. Scheduled inspections spot dust before it becomes a major job.
What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. 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.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
