Ventilation duct cleaning in Catsfield, done properly
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 way the work matches the real condition. If you have ductwork that hasn’t been inspected and odours carried round the building by the ducts, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Catsfield, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

What happens if it’s left?
Dust in ducts does not go away on its own. The longer it’s left, the more there is to remove, and the more gets blown back into the rooms. A planned visit to Catsfield is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

What staff can safely do
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

Offices and retail
Shared systems in multi-let buildings need access to several areas. Access is agreed with the building manager.
Extract ductwork
Washroom extracts handle damp air, so the dust tends to cling. They’re cleaned and their condition recorded.

We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across East Sussex. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Catsfield questions
Can you work in Catsfield outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Catsfield keeps running as normal. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
Is Catsfield in your area for ventilation duct cleaning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Catsfield is part of that. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with a few pictures of the system.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
What accreditations do you have?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.
Do you provide a report?
Yes. Every clean comes with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. BESA advises keeping certificates in the maintenance log.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
What types of premises do you cover?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
How often should ventilation ductwork be cleaned?
Inspection should decide it, in line with TR19® Air. Busy or sensitive buildings may need it more often.
Catsfield buildings and their air
The FSA’s food hygiene register lists about 3 care, childcare and hospital premises with registered kitchens or food service across Catsfield and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Where buildings like these have air handling units, filters, coils and drain trays need regular attention. Catsfield’s nearest hospital, Bexhill Hospital, is about 3.4 miles south. If you run a surgery, clinic or care home, your ventilation deserves the same care as a hospital’s, on a smaller scale. About 48 miles out from central London, Catsfield is part of the South East area we work across. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you.
Healthcare buildings such as Bexhill Hospital, about 3.4 miles south, depend on their ventilation; if you manage a surgery, clinic or care home near Catsfield, yours matters too.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- What state the system is in
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
Helping us quote
You do not need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it

How it works
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Catsfield can be planned properly.
- We survey the system from drawings, photos or a site visit.
- 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.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Clear the space around the work
Ask for a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before we start.
Advice
Common problems we fix in Catsfield
Refits and building work send dust into ventilation systems, particularly if it’s left running while work goes on. Plaster, wood and masonry dust can sit in the ducts for years.
The symptoms we are asked about most include:
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
- Damp or stale smells from grilles
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
- Stuffy rooms and stale air
Classrooms and halls at schools such as Catsfield Church of England Primary School are easiest to work in when pupils are away.
