About our ventilation duct cleaning in Cricklewood
We get into the ducts through access panels at intervals along the system. If some sections can’t be reached, the report says so, and new access panels can be installed for the next clean. If you have dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers and ductwork that hasn’t been inspected, we can put it right, from toilet extract systems, general extract ductwork and hospitals and care homes onwards.
London buildings tend to keep their plant on the roof or below ground, so ventilation cleaning in Cricklewood is usually planned out of hours. Loading and parking are planned with the building first.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Watch for water stains around grilles
- Include grilles in the cleaning rota
- Log every filter change
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
If there’s building work planned, protect the ventilation. Switch it off or cover the grilles while dusty work goes on.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.
Do you need ventilation duct cleaning in Cricklewood?
Many systems run for long hours, day after day, and every hour moves more dust through the ducts. The busier the building, the faster it builds up.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Damp or stale smells from grilles
- Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
- Systems missing access panels
Hospitals such as St Andrew's Hospital (about 0.8 miles north-west) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Cricklewood are no different.

Cricklewood buildings and their air
Food Standards Agency records list about 68 schools, colleges and universities, about 50 caring premises (care homes, nurseries and hospitals) and about 10 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses registered as food businesses across Cricklewood and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Classrooms, bedrooms and care spaces are often served by ducted air, and that ductwork collects dust over time. About 0.8 miles north-west of Cricklewood is St Andrew's Hospital, the nearest hospital. Clean air matters most where people are unwell, and that is as true in a care home as in a hospital. Ventilation cleaning in London buildings is usually planned for evenings or weekends.
If you manage a school such as Anson Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays. If you manage offices or shops near Cricklewood station, their ventilation can be inspected and cleaned out of hours.

Questions from Cricklewood
How do you handle parking and loading in Cricklewood?
Tell us where a van can stop near your site in Cricklewood, and about any building rules on loading. Much of our London work is done overnight, which helps.
Can the work in Cricklewood be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Cricklewood can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. TR19® itself isn’t law; it’s a BESA specification. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.
How long will the duct cleaning take?
The clean takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. The survey gives us a clearer idea, so give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form to get started.
How much notice should we give?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
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.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
When it’s something else
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what ventilation duct cleaning won’t do:
- Damaged ductwork beyond cleaning
- Design problems with the ductwork layout
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think before you book.
What the work covers
- Toilet extract systems
- General extract ductwork
- Grilles and diffusers
- Supply ductwork
- Hospitals and care homes
- Offices and schools
Part by part
Extract ductwork
General extract ductwork removes stale air from rooms, toilets and washrooms. Lint, dust and fibres gather inside and slowly narrow.
Grilles and diffusers
Dark streaks round a ceiling diffuser can be a sign of dirty supply air. The grilles are cleaned and the ducts behind inspected.
The process
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. In Cricklewood, as across London, we usually work overnight or at weekends and hand the site back ready to open.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
- We inspect the ducts at chosen points to see where cleaning is needed.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
How to prepare
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
