Ventilation duct cleaning across Crofton Park

How it works

We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. We fit London jobs around the building rather than the other way round, so a visit in Crofton Park is usually out of hours.

  1. We survey the system from drawings, photos or a site visit.
  2. Inspection comes next, with pictures of the inside of the ducts.
  3. The area below is protected and the system switched off.
  4. Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
  5. We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
  • Clear the space around the work
  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use

How to get a quote

We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

Ventilation duct cleaning in Crofton Park, done properly

Ductwork is reached through access panels along each run. If some sections cannot be reached, the report says so, and new access panels can be installed so they’re covered next time. If you are dealing with ductwork with too few access panels to clean and blocked general extract ductwork, we can help.

London buildings often depend on air handling units in plant rooms or on the roof to supply fresh air. In a building in Crofton Park, dust and debris build up in the units and ductwork over time.

Different parts, different methods

Schools and colleges

Holidays and weekends are the natural time to clean school ventilation, with nobody in the classrooms.

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.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Crofton Park

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

What staff can safely do

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.

What we’re called out for in Crofton Park

Filters never catch everything, so fine dust settles in supply ductwork over the years. Extract ducts collect whatever the rooms give off: dust, fibres and lint.

What we are most often called out for:

  • Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
  • Systems missing access panels
  • Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
  • Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning

Hospitals such as University Hospital Lewisham (about 0.7 miles east) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Crofton Park are no different.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
  • When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

Between visits

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:

  • Watch for water stains around grilles
  • Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
  • Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
  • Log every filter change

The report lists the sections we cleaned and any we couldn’t reach, with photos before and after. If access panels are needed, we’ll say where.

TR19® Air works through regular inspection. Inspecting on a schedule catches build-up before it becomes a big clean.

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before work begins.

  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
