About our ventilation duct cleaning in Greenhithe
Dust in ventilation ductwork isn’t only a cleanliness issue. It can restrict airflow, make the system work harder and send dust back into occupied rooms. Cleaning restores the clear airway the system was designed with. If you have ducts that need a clean before handover and supply ducts with years of dust inside, we can help, from supply ductwork, hospitals and care homes and offices and schools onwards.
In a smaller place like Greenhithe, buildings with ducted ventilation are more likely to be a school, a surgery, a care home or a small business unit than an office block. Smaller systems still gather dust and need inspecting.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Greenhithe buildings and their air
There are about 4 schools, colleges and universities and about 12 hospitals, care homes and childcare premises on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of central Greenhithe. Busy, occupied buildings like these are where clean supply air matters most. Darent Valley Hospital is the nearest hospital, about 1.5 miles south-west of Greenhithe. Healthcare ventilation is a good example of why supply ducts need inspecting: the air goes straight to patients. We cover Greenhithe, about 17 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.
Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Darent Valley Hospital (about 1.5 miles south-west) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts. For schools like Knockhall Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation. If you run an office near Greenhithe for Bluewater station, its supply ductwork can gather dust for years before anyone looks inside.

What staff can safely do
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

Greenhithe questions
Do you work at weekends in Greenhithe?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Greenhithe keeps running as normal. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you clean school ventilation in Greenhithe in the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 4 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Greenhithe. You can ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the dates the site is empty.
What does TR19 Air cover?
The two cover different systems: general ventilation for TR19® Air and kitchen extract for TR19® Grease. Under TR19® Air, inspection decides when cleaning is needed.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. We always survey first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
How do you deal with ducts you cannot get into?
Accessible sections are cleaned and the others recorded. Fitting access panels tends to be the answer, and we can quote for them.
How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll typically reply within one working day.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
- Log every filter change
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
The report includes a recommended date for the next inspection, based on what we found. Diary it straight away so it doesn’t slip.
Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before we start, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. For a site near Greenhithe, the work is booked around your opening hours, evenings and weekends included.

- Design problems with the ductwork layout
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
