What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning

We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:

  • Parking and loading at the site
  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends

What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

What we need to know

What to send for a quote:

  • Any previous report or certificate
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • Wide pictures of the system and the area around it

Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Clap Hill

Every ventilation system has ducts bringing air in and ducts taking it out. Dust and debris build up in both, and some of it is blown back into the building. We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers to TR19® Air. We are often asked to deal with toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff and ductwork with too few access panels to clean, on general extract ductwork, supply ductwork and toilet extract systems.

Somewhere as small as Clap Hill, ducted ventilation is usually 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.

The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after each visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Clap Hill

Is ventilation duct cleaning available in Clap Hill?

Yes. Our area runs across London and the South East, Clap Hill included. To start, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with a few photos of the system.

Can the work in Clap Hill be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Clap Hill can fit around your hours. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.

Are you accredited?

CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.

Can you price the work without visiting?

Typically, yes. Send a few wide pictures plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote typically follows within one working day. If pictures aren’t enough, we’ll survey first.

Are grilles and diffusers included?

Yes, together with the ductwork. They show up in the photo report before and after.

What does ventilation duct cleaning cost?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before any work starts.

Part by part

Schools and colleges

The work is fitted around term dates and events, with access agreed with the caretaker or site manager.

Offices and retail

Multi-let buildings may share ductwork between tenants. Access is agreed with the building manager.

For landlords and multi-site operators

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.

Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.

Common problems we fix in Clap Hill

Building work is one of the biggest sources of debris in ducts, particularly if it’s left running while work goes on. Plaster, wood and masonry dust can sit in the ducts for years.

If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:

  • Dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years
  • Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
  • Stuffy rooms and stale air
  • Odours carried round the building by the ducts

For schools like Aldington Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
  • Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

When something else is needed

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what ventilation duct cleaning will not do:

  • Problems with how the system is controlled
  • Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
  • Leaks from roofs, pipes or walls into the ductwork

If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What the work covers

  • Toilet extract systems
  • Supply ductwork
  • Hospitals and care homes
  • Grilles and diffusers
  • General extract ductwork
  • Offices and schools

How the visit works

A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, clear away and leave you the report. The visit itself takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Visits to a village like Clap Hill are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.

  1. We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
  2. Ducts are inspected at access points and the condition recorded.
  3. The area below is protected and the system switched off.
  4. We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
  5. A certificate and before and after pictures follow, with anything not reached recorded.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Clear loose items from the work area
