When it’s something else

Not every problem is solved by ventilation duct cleaning, and we’ll tell you before we start. It won’t put right:

  • Controls and BMS faults that affect the system
  • Leaking or broken duct sections
  • Ventilation that is undersized for the building

If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on in Hoath

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

Ventilation duct cleaning in Hoath

Extract ducts from toilets, changing rooms and general areas collect dust and lint. Supply ducts pick up whatever gets past the filters. We clean both, keeping the work tidy and the building protected. If you’re dealing with rooms that feel airless when the system runs and dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms, we can help, from offices and schools, general extract ductwork and grilles and diffusers onwards.

In a village or hamlet like Hoath, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.

Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Aftercare tips

So the system stays in good health:

  • Keep to the inspection interval in your report
  • Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
  • Include grilles in the cleaning rota
  • Report dust blowing from grilles right away

Before any works, think about the ducts. Switch it off or cover the grilles while dusty work goes on.

Regular inspection is the core of TR19® Air. Inspecting on a schedule catches build-up before it becomes a big clean.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Hoath

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Hoath and across Kent. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed quote.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

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. Leave those to us.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning

Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:

  • Parking and loading at the site
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • How big the system is
  • How easy every part is to reach

Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before work begins.

What we do, step by step

When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Somewhere like Hoath, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.

  1. We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
  2. Access panels are opened along each run.
  3. Before photos are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
  4. Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
  5. We take after photos and send the certificate and report.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions
  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

How to get a quote

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

Part by part

Supply ductwork

Supply ducts carry air from the AHU into the rooms. Dust that slips past the filters builds up inside, and we remove it through access panels.

Extract ductwork

A dirty extract duct makes its fan work harder. Clearing the duct helps the fan do its job.
