Ventilation duct cleaning in Burlow
We always start by inspecting. We look inside the ductwork at set points and record what’s there, then recommend cleaning where it’s needed. That keeps the work in proportion to the risk. If you’re dealing with systems with no record of inspection or cleaning and musty smells from the ventilation, we can put it right, from general extract ductwork, toilet extract systems and supply ductwork onwards.
In a village or hamlet like Burlow, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The scale of the work
- The number of sites or systems
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we’ll talk you through it.
Helping us quote
Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The site address and the type of premises
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: 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.
How the visit works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Burlow.
- We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
How to prepare
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Advice
Burlow questions
Is ventilation duct cleaning available in Burlow?
Yes, Burlow is within the area we cover across London and the South East. To start, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos with a few pictures of the system.
Is Burlow within the area you cover?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Burlow is covered. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can you clean without closing the building?
Yes, where the building needs it. We agree a window when the ventilation can go off.
What is TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
Yes, if we can see what we need. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?
Inspection should decide it, in line with TR19® Air. Busy or sensitive buildings may need it more often.
Looking after it afterwards
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Include grilles in the cleaning rota
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Log every filter change
- Do not run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
We recommend when the system should next be inspected, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air. Put it in the diary now so it does not slip.
Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as moisture makes dust stick.
When it’s something else
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Problems with how the system is controlled
- Ventilation that is undersized for the building
- Condensation caused by the building rather than the ducts
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What the work involves, part by part
Supply ductwork
Supply ducts carry air from the AHU into the rooms. Fine dust that gets past the filters settles along the runs, and it’s cleaned out through access panels.
Offices and retail
Offices and shops tend to need the work done outside opening hours so staff and customers are not disturbed.
Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Burlow
Why does it matter?: dusty ducts can blow debris back into rooms, restrict airflow and make fans work harder. In hospitals, care homes and schools, clean air is especially important.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Musty smells from the ventilation
- Ventilation full of debris from building work
- Grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt
- Blocked general extract ductwork
Around Burlow, as anywhere, ventilation cleaning begins with an inspection.
