Ventilation duct cleaning in Butt's Green
Supply ducts carry air into the rooms and extract ducts take it away. Dust and debris build up in both, some of which ends up back in the rooms. Our cleaning covers the ducts, grilles and diffusers, to TR19® Air. The work covers grilles and diffusers, offices and schools and hospitals and care homes, and common reasons people get in touch are odours carried round the building by the ducts and dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms.
Somewhere as small as Butt's Green, ducted ventilation is typically limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

What staff can safely do
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Aftercare tips
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Do not block grilles with furniture or storage
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
- Report dust blowing from grilles straight away
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report after the clean. BESA advises keeping certificates in the maintenance log, with the date, location and technician on record.
Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
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.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.

What else we do in Butt's Green
The process
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks, and we clear up before we go. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Butt's Green, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- 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.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- A certificate and before and after photos follow, with anything not reached recorded.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Move anything stored near the system
Get a fixed quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we start.

What happens if it’s left?
Smells, dust around grilles and stuffy rooms are signs the system needs attention. Acting early keeps the clean simpler. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.

Questions from Butt's Green
Do you work at weekends in Butt's Green?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Do you cover smaller places like Butt's Green?
Yes. Butt's Green is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
How much notice should we give?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. Quotes typically come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
What types of premises do you cover?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not typically. The area we are working in has to be out of use while we are there, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Who is the responsible person?
The Fire Safety Order 2005 calls them the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.
