How the job changes from site to site
Supply ductwork
Anything in a supply duct can end up in the rooms it feeds. Cleaning it deals with the source.
Offices and retail
In offices and retail, we often work evenings, overnight or at weekends so staff and customers aren’t disturbed.
Ventilation duct cleaning in Forge Wood, done properly
Ductwork is reached through access panels along each run. If some sections can’t be reached, the report says so, and we can fit new panels for the next clean. If you have ductwork that hasn’t been inspected and grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt, we can help.
In a place like Forge Wood, air handling units are often tucked into roof spaces or small plant rooms, where they’re easy to forget. Every unit, large or small, has filters, coils and a drain tray to keep clean.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

What we do, step by step
We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like Forge Wood, so let us know how to reach it.
- We survey the system from drawings, photos or a site visit.
- We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
- The area below is protected and the system switched off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
How to prepare
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know about parking and loading

What your team can do, and what needs us
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is 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, next to our reports.
Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
- Include grilles in the cleaning rota
- Log every filter change
- Protect the system from construction dust
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.
Protect the system during building work by turning it off or covering the openings.
