Ventilation duct cleaning in Appledore Heath, done properly
Supply ducts carry air into the rooms and extract ducts take it away. Over time, both collect dust and debris, some of which ends up back in the rooms. Our cleaning covers the ducts, grilles and diffusers, to TR19® Air. We’re often asked to deal with ducts that need a clean before handover and dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years, on supply ductwork, grilles and diffusers 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.
Each visit ends with a written report and pictures, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How the visit works
We’re used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Somewhere as small as Appledore Heath, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- 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
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Move anything stored near the system

Appledore Heath questions
Is Appledore Heath in your area for ventilation duct cleaning?
Yes. Our area runs across London and the South East, Appledore Heath included. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with a few pictures of the system.
Can you come to Appledore Heath after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Appledore Heath does not have to lose a day’s trading. When you call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
The law calls them the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and where several people have control, each can have duties. If you are not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
Are grilles and diffusers included?
Yes. Where they can be removed, they’re taken down, cleaned and refitted. The rest are cleaned where they are.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and the last report help too. Then call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not normally. We need the work area to ourselves while we are on site, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
Where does the waste go?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it does not spread.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Appledore Heath
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
When to call us in Appledore Heath
Ductwork is hidden above ceilings and in risers, so dust collects unseen. The grilles get a wipe, but what’s behind them doesn’t.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
For buildings in and around Appledore Heath, TR19® Air cleaning starts with an inspection.
Before you book anyone
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether a survey comes first
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
Looking after it afterwards
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- Diary the next TR19® Air inspection
Before any works, think about the ducts. Turn off the system or cover the openings during dusty jobs.
Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overloaded or poorly seated filters let dust straight through.
Leave it or put it right?
Smells, dust around grilles and stuffy rooms are signs the system needs attention. Dealing with them now stops them getting worse. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Appledore Heath is calmer for everyone.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
