Ventilation duct cleaning in Hogben's Hill

Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Hogben's Hill

Every clean ends with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. 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’re dealing with ductwork with too few access panels to clean and extract ducts clogged with lint and dust, we can help.

Work in a small place like Hogben's Hill starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.

Every visit ends with a written report and photos, 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.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.

Common problems we fix in Hogben's Hill

Many systems run for long hours, day after day, and every hour of running brings more dust with it. Heavier use means faster build-up.

The symptoms we are asked about most are:

  • Ventilation full of debris from building work
  • Systems missing access panels
  • Musty smells from the ventilation
  • Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning

In Hogben's Hill, we look inside the system before deciding what needs cleaning.

What your quote should include

  • Whether a survey comes first
  • What insurance they carry
  • Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
  • Whether they recommend a next date

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

What the work involves, part by part

Extract ductwork

Washroom extracts handle damp air, which makes dirt stick. They’re cleaned and their condition recorded.

Offices and retail

In offices and retail, we often work evenings, overnight or at weekends so staff and customers are not disturbed.

Your quote is based on your site. We consider:

  • The condition we find in the survey
  • The size of the system
  • The number of sites or systems
  • How easy every part is to reach

Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.

What we need to know

Before you ask for a quote, gather:

  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before we start.

Related advice

What your team can do, and what needs us

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Hogben's Hill: your questions answered

Can you come to Hogben's Hill after we close?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

Can a school’s ventilation in Hogben's Hill be done out of term time?

Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Around Hogben's Hill, the Food Standards Agency lists about 3 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.

How do you protect the area?

Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.

What happens if you can’t reach some of it?

They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, which we can install.

How does TR19 Air differ from TR19 Grease?

The two cover different systems: general ventilation for TR19® Air and kitchen extract for TR19® Grease. TR19® Air takes an inspection-led, risk-based approach.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.

What do you do with what you remove?

Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.

Do you have insurance?

Yes, we’re fully insured. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it for clients who vet their contractors.
