What ventilation duct cleaning can’t fix

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what ventilation duct cleaning won’t do:

  • Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
  • Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
  • Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric

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

Parts of the system we cover

  • General extract ductwork
  • Toilet extract systems
  • Offices and schools
  • Grilles and diffusers
  • Supply ductwork
  • Hospitals and care homes

How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Greengate

When the work is finished, you get a TR19® certificate and before and after photos. It shows what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the system should next be inspected, so you have it all on record. If you have supply ducts with years of dust inside and construction dust left in ducts after a refit, we can put it right.

In London, plant rooms are often in basements or on roofs reached through occupied floors, so work in Greengate is often done in the evening or at weekends. Loading and parking are planned with the building first.

We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Ventilation in Greengate buildings

Food Standards Agency records list about 65 schools, colleges and universities, about 51 caring premises (care homes, nurseries and hospitals) and about 19 hotels and guest houses registered as food businesses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Greengate. Many buildings of this kind have supply and extract ductwork that gathers dust and needs inspecting. London plant rooms are often on roofs or in basements reached through occupied floors. For Greengate, the closest hospital is Newham University Hospital, roughly 0.5 miles south-east. Healthcare buildings depend on clean supply and extract ventilation, and the same applies to surgeries, clinics and care homes.

If you manage a school such as Southern Road Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

Between visits

Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
  • Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
  • Include grilles in the cleaning rota
  • Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them

We recommend when the system should next be inspected, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air. Put it in the diary now so it does not slip.

Protect the system during building work by switching it off or covering the grilles.

Multi-site and managed buildings

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.

Why act early in Greengate

In healthcare, care and education settings, ventilation cleaning is hard to put off. Good indoor air starts with a clean system. A building in Greengate may have flats or offices above and alongside, and a fault in the system can affect them too.

A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before any work starts.

What happens on the day

Your staff do not need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Security desks and permits-to-work are routine in London, so let us know what your building in Greengate needs from us.

  1. We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
  2. We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
  3. We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
  4. Debris is cleared from the duct runs, then grilles and diffusers are cleaned.
  5. We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.

Preparing for the visit

  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
  • Move anything stored near the system

Ask for a quote

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Greengate

Is parking a problem for work in Greengate?

Parking and loading in London need planning, so tell us about bays, permits and building rules when you book. Night visits tend to make loading easier on London streets.

Can the work in Greengate be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Will you look at the ducts before quoting?

Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from pictures, drawings or a site visit, then we send you a fixed quote.

What is TR19?

It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.

Will we have paperwork to show the system was cleaned?

Yes. You get a TR19® certificate and a report with before and after photos. BESA advises keeping certificates in the maintenance log.

Where does the waste go?

It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.

How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?

Under TR19® Air, the answer comes from inspecting the ducts. Busy or sensitive buildings may need it more often.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning

Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • The size of the system
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • The times the site is available

We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll explain what it covers.

What to send for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:

  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to

Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Common problems we fix in Greengate

Damp ducts hold onto dirt. Condensation and leaks turn loose dust into a stubborn layer, and it becomes harder to remove.

Common reasons sites call us include:

  • Blocked general extract ductwork
  • Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
  • Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning
  • Grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt

Hospitals such as Newham University Hospital (about 0.5 miles south-east) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Greengate are no different.

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
  • Whether VAT is included
  • If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
  • What records you will receive afterwards
