Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Aylesford
Every clean ends with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. It shows what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the system should next be inspected, giving the ventilation a clean bill of health on paper. The work covers hospitals and care homes, toilet extract systems and supply ductwork, and common reasons people get in touch are ductwork with too few access panels to clean and ductwork never cleaned since it was installed.
For a building near Aylesford, the visit is planned around how it’s used, and the journey is planned ahead. The method doesn’t change: inspect first, clean, then record what was done.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

What happens if it’s left?
Leave dust in the ductwork and it keeps building. Every year adds to the job, and more of it finds its way back into the building. It’s easy to lose track of when the work was last done on a quieter site.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.

Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
The report lists the sections we cleaned and any we couldn’t reach, with photos before and after. We’ll suggest where new access panels would help.
Don’t let construction dust into the ventilation by turning it off or covering the openings.

FAQs for Aylesford
Can ventilation in schools around Aylesford be cleaned out of term?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. The FSA’s register shows about 6 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Aylesford. You can call 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the dates the site is empty.
Do you work in villages like Aylesford?
Yes. Aylesford is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
How much notice should we give?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.
Will we have paperwork to show the system was cleaned?
Yes. You get a certificate with the date, location and technician, plus a photo report.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
Will you clean the vents in the rooms?
Yes, along with the ducts behind them. You will see them in the before and after photos.
What does TR19 Air cover?
TR19® Air deals with general ventilation, while TR19® Grease deals with kitchen extract. Under TR19® Air, inspection decides when cleaning is needed.
Fixed quotes for ventilation duct cleaning in Aylesford
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- Parking and loading at the site
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- What state the system is in
- How many systems or sites are involved
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.
When to call us in Aylesford
Moisture in ducts makes dust stick. Condensation and leaks turn loose dust into a stubborn layer, which is harder to shift later.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
- Musty smells from the ventilation
- Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
- Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
If you manage offices or shops near Aylesford station, their ventilation can be inspected and cleaned out of hours.
What to look for in a quote

- How VAT is shown on the quote
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- Whether they recommend a next date
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
How it works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Visits to a place like Aylesford are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the survey says the job needs.
- 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
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
Get a fixed quote
To get a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We usually come back within one working day.
Advice
Managing agents and facilities teams in Aylesford
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 can quote for the whole system.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
