Blocked air vents cleared to restore proper ventilation. Kitchen, bathroom, and wall vents cleaned of dust, grease, and debris for better airflow.
When Did You Last Clean Your Vents?
Those little grilles in your walls and windows? They're absolutely choked with dust and grease if you haven't cleaned them in a while. Blocked vents mean poor airflow, condensation on windows, musty smells, and mould growth. Quick clear-out sorts it.
💡 Pro tip: Kitchen vents near hobs get a coating of sticky grease that traps dust. Regular cleaning prevents it building up to the point where no air gets through.
Why Proper Vent Cleaning Matters

| Fresh air in, stale air out | Stuffy rooms and poor air quality |
| Moisture escapes properly | Condensation runs down windows |

Good to Know
> 🎨 **Getting a decorator in?** Get vents cleaned first - they'll mask around clean grilles, and you won't ruin fresh paint removing them later. **Combining jobs?** If I'm cleaning vents, often makes sense to do extractor fan cleaning at the same time. Both involve similar work and access. **Older houses?** Victorian and Edwardian houses often have lovely cast iron or decorative ventilation grilles. They clean up beautifully and look great once the grime's removed.
Frequently Asked Questions about Air vent clearing in Crediton
What vents are we talking about?
Any ventilation grilles in your walls, windows, or ceilings. Kitchen extractor vents, bathroom vents, trickle vents in windows, wall-mounted air vents. They all get blocked with dust, grease, and grime over time and need clearing to work properly.
How often should vents be cleared?
Kitchen vents (especially near hobs) need doing every 6-12 months because of grease buildup. Bathroom and general room vents, once a year is usually plenty. More often if you've got condensation or air quality issues.
Can't I just vacuum them?
You can try, but it usually only gets the surface dust. The grilles often need removing to properly clean behind them, and grease buildup needs degreasing not just hoovering. I'll get them actually clean, not just superficially tidy.
Will it help with condensation?
Often yes - blocked vents mean moisture can't escape, leading to condensation on windows and walls. Clear the vents and you get proper airflow again. Won't solve every damp issue, but it definitely helps, especially in bathrooms and kitchens.
What about the mess?
Cleaning vents is dusty work, but I'll contain the mess and clean up properly. Put down dust sheets, vacuum as I go, wipe down surfaces. Won't leave your house covered in dust and grime.
