What the work involves, part by part
Offices and retail
In offices and retail, we often work evenings, overnight or at weekends so staff and customers are not disturbed.
Schools and colleges
Busy classrooms send a lot of dust and fibre into extract ducts. Inspection shows when cleaning is due.
About our ventilation duct cleaning in Chase Cross
Toilet, washroom and general extract ducts gather dust, fluff and debris. Supply ducts carry anything the filters miss. Both are cleaned, with the area protected and the mess contained. If you have systems with no record of inspection or cleaning and damp or stale smells from grilles, we can help.
For a building near Chase Cross, the visit is planned around how it’s used, and the journey is planned ahead. The work is the same as in any town: inspect, clean, record.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Do not block grilles with furniture or storage
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Log every filter change
- Keep to the inspection interval in your report
Change filters on schedule so the clean ducts stay clean. Overdue filters let dust straight back in.
Keep filters changed on time. Overloaded or poorly seated filters let dust straight through.
For landlords and multi-site operators
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
The process
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like Chase Cross, so let us know how to reach 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.
- The area below is protected and the system switched off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- A certificate and before and after pictures follow, with anything not reached recorded.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Advice
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
What happens if it’s left?
Facilities teams are regularly asked to show evidence of ventilation hygiene. Having a recent certificate and photo report for a building in Chase Cross answers the question. It’s easy to lose track of when the work was last done on a quieter site.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Do you work in villages like Chase Cross?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Chase Cross included. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you inspect before cleaning?
Yes, always. The survey shows the layout, the access and the condition before giving a fixed quote.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
What do you do with what you remove?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Will you clean the vents in the rooms?
Yes, along with the ducts behind them. They show up in the photo report before and after.
What if there are not enough access panels?
We clean what we can reach and note the rest. Fitting access panels tends to be the answer, and we can fit them.
