Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Avery Hill
We cover Avery Hill and the rest of Greater London for ventilation duct cleaning, from offices and schools to hospitals, care homes and shops. Each building gets a survey first and a fixed quote. We’re often asked to deal with poor airflow from the vents and blocked general extract ductwork, on toilet extract systems, supply ductwork and offices and schools.
Many London buildings have had their ventilation extended and altered through several fit-outs, with old runs left behind that are hard to reach. In Avery Hill, as elsewhere, cleaning starts with an inspection of what’s there.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Log every filter change
- Protect the system from construction dust
Share the report with whoever looks after the building’s maintenance, so it’s all in one place. Year on year, it shows how fast dust builds up.
Protect the system during building work by turning it off or covering the openings.

How the job changes from site to site
Hospitals and care homes
People in hospitals and care homes can be more vulnerable to poor air. Inspection-led cleaning under TR19® Air helps keep systems in good condition.
Supply ductwork
Supply runs are inspected at set points first before deciding what to clean.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Common questions in Avery Hill
Can you come to Avery Hill after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Avery Hill keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Do you do school ventilation cleaning in Avery Hill in the summer holidays?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Around Avery Hill, the Food Standards Agency lists about 48 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it for clients who vet their contractors.
How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?
That varies with the building, the filters and how hard the system works. Regular inspection tells you when it’s due.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we’ll quote them together.
What happens if parts of the ductwork can’t be reached?
Accessible sections are cleaned and the others recorded. Extra access panels can solve it, and we can fit them.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

How the visit works
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. For a job in Avery Hill, tell us about loading bays, permits, lifts and roof access when you book.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
