How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Guestling
In a building in Guestling, the people inside spend hours breathing what the ventilation delivers. Keeping the ducts clean is a sensible part of looking after them, as much as clean filters and a well-kept AHU. We’re often asked to deal with ventilation full of debris from building work and extract ducts clogged with lint and dust, across toilet extract systems, offices and schools and hospitals and care homes.
For a building in or near Guestling, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with photos, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

What we do, step by step
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 it goes on the report too. The visit takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Visits to a village like Guestling are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
- We inspect the ducts at chosen points to see where cleaning is needed.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Getting a quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Advice
Leave it or put it right?
Facilities teams are regularly asked to show evidence of ventilation hygiene. A TR19® certificate and photo report from a recent clean give them that. Planning a trip to Guestling ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across East Sussex. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Keeping the system healthy
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Don’t block grilles with furniture or storage
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Stick to the filter change schedule
What was cleaned is listed, along with any parts that weren’t accessible, with photos before and after. We’ll suggest where new access panels would help.
TR19® Air works through regular inspection. Inspecting on a schedule catches build-up before it becomes a big clean.

Part by part
Extract ductwork
Toilet and washroom extract can carry moisture as well as dust, which makes dirt stick. They’re cleaned and their condition recorded.
Schools and colleges
Busy classrooms send a lot of dust and fibre into extract ducts. Regular inspection keeps on top of it.
