In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
About our ventilation duct cleaning in Ashford
Extract ducts from toilets, changing rooms and general areas collect dust and lint. Supply ducts carry anything the filters miss. Both are cleaned, with the area protected and the mess contained. Typical jobs include toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff and ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection, across offices and schools, grilles and diffusers and general extract ductwork.
In Ashford, ventilation in schools and offices is cleaned when the building is quiet: out of hours, at weekends or during the holidays.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Ashford
Do you do school ventilation cleaning in Ashford in the summer holidays?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. The FSA’s register shows about 19 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Ashford. Send us your term dates when you ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll fit the work in.
Is ventilation duct cleaning available in Ashford?
Yes, Ashford is within the area we cover across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
What does TR19 Air cover?
It’s BESA’s guidance for ventilation hygiene in general supply and extract systems, rather than kitchen extract. It’s risk-based and led by inspection, and kitchen extract falls under TR19® Grease.
What does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote, usually ready within one working day.
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.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No, not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you will get one fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

Different parts, different methods
Supply ductwork
Anything in a supply duct can end up in the rooms it feeds. Cleaning it deals with the source.
Extract ductwork
General extract ductwork removes stale air from rooms, toilets and washrooms. Lint, dust and fibres gather inside and slowly narrow.
Common problems we fix in Ashford
Damp ducts hold onto dirt. Condensation and leaks turn loose dust into a stubborn layer, which is harder to shift later.
Most sites get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
- Supply ducts with years of dust inside
- Systems missing access panels
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
For schools like Spelthorne College, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.
What your quote should include
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- What insurance they carry
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- If they look at the system before pricing
How we price ventilation duct cleaning
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- What state the system is in
- Travel, parking and unloading
- How easy every part is to reach
- How many systems or sites are involved
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
The process
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks, and we clear up before we go. Photos taken on a phone are typically enough for us to plan a job in Ashford and give a fixed quote.
- First the system is surveyed, on site or from pictures and drawings.
- Ducts are inspected at access points and the condition recorded.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- A certificate and before and after pictures follow, with anything not reached recorded.
Before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
How to get a quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
