When to call us in Greenwich

Damp ducts hold onto dirt. Condensation and leaks turn loose dust into a stubborn layer, which is harder to shift later.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection
  • Blocked general extract ductwork
  • Poor airflow from the vents
  • Ventilation full of debris from building work

If you run an office near Maze Hill station, its supply ductwork can gather dust for years before anyone looks inside.

Before booking anyone

  • How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
  • What’s included in the scope, part by part
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Proof of accreditation you can verify

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

Ventilation duct cleaning in Greenwich

Supply ducts carry air into the rooms and extract ducts take it away. Over time, both collect dust and debris, some of which ends up back in the rooms. Our cleaning covers the ducts, grilles and diffusers, to TR19® Air. The work covers offices and schools, hospitals and care homes and supply ductwork, and people most often call us about stuffy rooms and stale air and ductwork never cleaned since it was installed.

London buildings often depend on air handling units in plant rooms or on the roof to supply fresh air. For a building in Greenwich, dust settles in the units and ducts year after year, which is what TR19® Air cleaning deals with.

A written report with pictures follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

FAQs for Greenwich

Can you clean school ventilation in Greenwich during the holidays?

Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 53 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Greenwich. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your term dates and we will plan around them.

Do you work overnight in Greenwich?

Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.

Do you look at the system first?

Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.

What types of premises do you cover?

Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.

What happens if you cannot reach some of it?

They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.

When should our ventilation next be cleaned?

That varies with the building, the filters and how hard the system works. Regular inspection tells you when it’s due.

Are you insured?

Yes. We carry full insurance, and we have been trading since 2009.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning

We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:

  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • What state the system is in
  • The size of the system
  • Parking and loading at the site

Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Asking for a quote

You do not need the technical terms. Just send:

  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings

We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Different parts, different methods

Hospitals and care homes

In care settings, keeping dust contained is a priority. We protect the work area and take everything away.

Supply ductwork

Anything in a supply duct can end up in the rooms it feeds. We clean the runs so it isn’t blown back in.

What we do, step by step

Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Getting kit into a London building takes planning, so let us know where we can load and park in Greenwich.

  1. First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
  2. Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
  3. The work area is protected and the system switched off.
  4. We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
  5. We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.

How to prepare

  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system

Getting a quote

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Greenwich buildings and their air

The FSA’s food hygiene register lists about 53 schools, colleges and universities, about 77 caring premises (care homes, nurseries and hospitals) and about 11 hotels and B&Bs with registered kitchens or food service in and around Greenwich, up to about a mile and a half out. Where buildings like these have air handling units, filters, coils and drain trays need regular attention. For Greenwich, the closest hospital is Greenwich District Hospital, roughly 0.5 miles north-east. Healthcare buildings depend on clean supply and extract ventilation, and the same applies to surgeries, clinics and care homes. Many London buildings have had their ductwork altered through several fit-outs, so an inspection comes first.

Greenwich District Hospital, about 0.5 miles north-east, is the nearest hospital to Greenwich, and healthcare sites of every size need their supply air kept clean. If you manage a school such as Meridian Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

Greenwich is about 4 miles east of London, in Greater London. Anywhere in SE10, we can take on ventilation duct cleaning. Our area takes in 764 places across Greater London, large and small.

We work across the SE10, SE3 and SE8 postcode area for ventilation duct cleaning and the streets around it. If you need ventilation duct cleaning at premises on Cade Road, Webb Road and Creek Road or a nearby road, our technicians can take on the work.

For landlords and multi-site operators

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

When something else is needed

Some problems need a different service or another trade:

  • Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
  • Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
  • Problems with how the system is controlled

If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on in Greenwich

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

Keeping the system healthy

Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
  • Keep to the inspection interval in your report
  • Stick to the filter change schedule
  • Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers

A TR19® certificate and photo report follow every clean. BESA advises keeping certificates in the maintenance log, with the date, location and technician on record.

Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.
