Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Chavey Down
Inspection comes first. The ducts are opened at access points and the condition recorded, then recommend cleaning where it’s needed. That keeps the work in proportion to the risk. The work covers grilles and diffusers, general extract ductwork and supply ductwork, and the jobs we see most are toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff and systems with no record of inspection or cleaning.
Somewhere as small as Chavey Down, ducted ventilation is normally limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

How the visit works
Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the ventilation duct cleaning, clear away and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Chavey Down.
- We survey the system from drawings, pictures or a site visit.
- Inspection comes next, with pictures of the inside of the ducts.
- We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
- Debris is cleared from the duct runs, then grilles and diffusers are cleaned.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

What the work involves, part by part
Hospitals and care homes
Hospitals and care homes are occupied day and night. We plan the order of work with the site team to keep disruption down.
Schools and colleges
Busy classrooms send a lot of dust and fibre into extract ducts. Inspection shows when cleaning is due.
When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
- Design problems with the ductwork layout
- Building management settings that run the plant
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on in Chavey Down
- Toilet extract systems
- Hospitals and care homes
- General extract ductwork

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
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 pictures.

Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
- Include grilles in the cleaning rota
- Watch for water stains around grilles
- Keep filters changed on time
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters let dust straight back in.
Make sure there are enough access panels to inspect and clean the ducts. Hidden sections are the ones that get worst.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Common questions in Chavey Down
Can the work in Chavey Down be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can you get to a site in Chavey Down?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Chavey Down is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What is TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
What do you need from me for a quote?

What do you do to protect the area?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
The law calls them the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and where several people have control, each can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you will get one fixed quote.
