How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Great Canney
Every ventilation system has ducts bringing air in and ducts taking it out. Dust and debris build up in both, some of which ends up back in the rooms. We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers to TR19® Air. We are often asked to deal with ductwork never cleaned since it was installed and poor airflow from the vents, on grilles and diffusers, offices and schools and general extract ductwork.
In a village or hamlet like Great Canney, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning 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, with full insurance on top.

Leave it or put it right?

Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Great Canney rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Great Canney and across Essex. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
The process
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. The timing of a visit to Great Canney is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate and report issued.

Common questions in Great Canney
Do you cover Great Canney for ventilation duct cleaning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Great Canney is part of that. You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Do you cover smaller places like Great Canney?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
What happens to the waste?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
What is TR19® Air?
It’s BESA’s guidance for ventilation hygiene in general supply and extract systems, rather than kitchen extract. It works on inspection and risk, and kitchen extract falls under TR19® Grease.
Do you clean grilles and diffusers?
Yes. Removable grilles come down for cleaning and go back up. The rest are cleaned where they are.
How much time does a ventilation clean need?
Typically, the work takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Large buildings can be phased, often out of hours, to fit around the building.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
- Log every filter change
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
What was cleaned is listed, along with any parts that weren’t accessible, backed up by before and after photos. If access panels are needed, we’ll say where.
Fit access panels where the ductwork cannot be reached. Hidden sections are the ones that get worst.
Part by part
Grilles and diffusers
