Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Curteis' Corner

Supply ducts carry air into the rooms and extract ducts take it away. 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. Typical jobs include ductwork never cleaned since it was installed and grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt, on offices and schools, supply ductwork and grilles and diffusers.

Work in a small place like Curteis' Corner starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.

It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Between visits

A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:

  • Report dust blowing from grilles right away
  • Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
  • Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
  • Don’t run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting

What was cleaned is listed, along with any parts that weren’t accessible, with photos before and after. If access panels are needed, we’ll say where.

Make sure there are enough access panels to inspect and clean the ducts. Hidden sections are the ones that get worst.

Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Curteis' Corner

Why does it matter?: dirt in the ducts can come back out of the grilles, slow the air and add strain on fans. Where people are vulnerable, as in healthcare and care settings, the stakes are higher.

Clients normally contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Musty smells from the ventilation
  • Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
  • Stuffy rooms and stale air
  • Dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years

Benenden Hospital, about 3 miles south-west, is the nearest hospital to Curteis' Corner, and healthcare sites of every size need their supply air kept clean.

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

Honest limits

It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:

  • A system that is not designed to move enough air
  • Condensation caused by the building rather than the ducts
  • Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean

If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer.

How it works

The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Visits to a village like Curteis' Corner are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.

  1. We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
  2. Access panels are opened along each run.
  3. We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
  4. Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
  5. We take after photos and send the certificate and report.
