Ventilation duct cleaning in Bilting, done properly
Beyond the kitchen, TR19® Air covers the ordinary supply and extract systems that serve offices, schools and other buildings. It’s risk-based and inspection-led, so we look before we clean. We’re often asked to deal with extract ducts clogged with lint and dust and systems missing access panels, on grilles and diffusers, offices and schools and supply ductwork.
Work in a small place like Bilting starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The condition of the system
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will talk you through it.
What to send for a quote
We can often survey from pictures. Try to include:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The site address and the type of premises
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before any work starts.

Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Bilting
In a building in Bilting, the ventilation may run for long hours every day, and every hour of running brings more dust with it. Heavier use means faster build-up.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Blocked general extract ductwork
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
- Damp or stale smells from grilles
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like William Harvey Hospital (about 4.8 miles south) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts.

Questions from Bilting
Can you get to a site in Bilting?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Bilting included. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can you work in Bilting outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Bilting needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
What information do you need?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
In many cases, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
What is TR19® Air?
TR19® Air deals with general ventilation, while TR19® Grease deals with kitchen extract. Under TR19® Air, inspection decides when cleaning is needed.
How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before we start.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.

How it works
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Visits to a village like Bilting are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
- We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
- We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
- Debris is cleared from the duct runs, then grilles and diffusers are cleaned.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Move anything stored near the system

Related advice
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Log every filter change
- Protect the system from construction dust
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Keep to the inspection interval in your report
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters let dust straight back in.
Don’t let construction dust into the ventilation by switching it off or covering the grilles.
Part by part
Hospitals and care homes
In healthcare and care settings, there’s no quiet time. We plan the order of work with the site team so care carries on.
Extract ductwork
General extract ductwork removes stale air from rooms, toilets and washrooms. They collect dust, lint and fibres and restrict the flow over time.
Why deal with it now?
Facilities teams are regularly asked to show evidence of ventilation hygiene. A TR19® certificate and photo report from a recent clean give them that. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
