Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Blacklands
We get into the ducts through access panels along each run. Where there aren’t enough panels to reach every section, we note the uncleaned parts in the report, and we can fit new panels for the next clean. If you are dealing with duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning and musty smells from the ventilation, we can help, from general extract ductwork, supply ductwork and hospitals and care homes onwards.
Smaller buildings around Blacklands often keep their ventilation units in a roof void or plant cupboard, where they’re easy to forget. Every unit, large or small, has filters, coils and a drain tray to keep clean.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

What we do, step by step
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 a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Around Blacklands, access is typically simpler than in a town centre, though gates and roof access are worth mentioning.
- 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.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- The report records what was cleaned, anything not reached and a next inspection date.
How to prepare
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Tell us where we can park and unload
Ask for a quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
Advice
How we price ventilation duct cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- How easy every part is to reach
- The condition of the system
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Any previous report or certificate
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Problems your staff have spotted
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before work begins.
Honest limits
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Damaged ductwork beyond cleaning
- Controls and BMS faults that affect the system
- Ventilation that is undersized for the building
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Part by part
Hospitals and care homes
Dust control matters during work in occupied care settings. We protect the work area and take everything away.
Schools and colleges
We plan the work around the school calendar and agree access with the site team.
Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
The report includes a recommended date for the next inspection, based on what we found. Diary it straight away so it doesn’t slip.
Regular inspection is the core of TR19® Air. Scheduled inspections spot dust before it becomes a major job.
What staff can safely do
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Common questions in Blacklands
Will you come out to Blacklands?
Yes. Blacklands is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can you come to Blacklands after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Blacklands can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Are grilles and diffusers included?
Yes. Grilles and diffusers are cleaned as part of the job, so dust is not left at the outlets.
How much notice should we give?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
What does TR19 Air cover?
It’s BESA’s guidance for ventilation hygiene in general supply and extract systems, beyond the kitchen. It works on inspection and risk, and kitchen extract falls under TR19® Grease.
What information do you need?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few photos and any previous report.
Will we have paperwork to show the system was cleaned?
Yes. You get a TR19® certificate and a report with before and after photos. BESA advises keeping certificates in the maintenance log.

Where buildings like these have air handling units, filters, coils and drain trays need regular attention. Blacklands’s nearest hospital, Conquest Hospital, is about 1.3 miles north.
