Exhaust Fan Cleaning in Malvern

Elegant Homes, Awkward Ventilation

Malvern is one of the inner east’s most gracious suburbs — Edwardian villas and detailed interwar homes on leafy streets around Glenferrie and Wattletree Roads. They are beautiful houses, but they were built in an era when a bathroom was small, heavily tiled and ventilated by little more than a high window. Where an exhaust fan was added later, it was often a modest unit squeezed into a period ceiling, and it has been quietly failing to keep up ever since.

The problem in a Malvern home is compounded by the way these houses are built. Hard tiled surfaces hold condensation, ornate cornices and ceilings show water staining quickly, and a fan that vents weakly into the roof cavity can push moisture up under a slate or terracotta roof where it does real damage. Owners often notice the symptoms — a mirror that will not clear, mould along the cornice, a musty smell in the ensuite — long before they realise the tired exhaust fan is the cause.

FreshDuct services these fans with the care a period home deserves. We clean and test the existing unit, and where it is not up to the room we upgrade it to a stronger, quieter fan ducted properly to the outside. We treat the mould the poor extraction has caused and finish with before and after photos, so a lovely old bathroom stays dry, fresh and free of damage.
