About our ventilation duct cleaning in Irons Bottom
Ventilation duct cleaning is something we carry out for buildings in Irons Bottom and right across Surrey, in offices, schools, healthcare buildings and retail. Each building gets a survey first and a fixed quote. The work covers hospitals and care homes, offices and schools and grilles and diffusers, and the jobs we see most are poor airflow from the vents and musty smells from the ventilation.
Work in a small place like Irons Bottom starts with agreeing access and timings.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

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 need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Irons Bottom
Even good filters let some dust through, and that fine dust settles along the supply ducts. Extract ducts collect whatever the rooms give off: dust, fibres and lint.
The symptoms we’re asked about most include:
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
- Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning
- Stuffy rooms and stale air
- Blocked general extract ductwork
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Irons Bottom, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like East Surrey Hospital (about 2.3 miles north-east).

Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Report dust blowing from grilles straight away
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Keep to the inspection interval in your report
Pass the paperwork to your facilities or maintenance team, so the history stays together. Over time, it shows how quickly the system gets dirty.
Keep filters changed on time. Overdue or badly fitted filters let dust into the supply ducts.

What happens if it’s left?
Starting with an inspection means you only clean what needs it. Skipping it leaves you guessing. If the system at a site near Irons Bottom fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.

Irons Bottom questions

Do you clean school ventilation in Irons Bottom in the holidays?

When should our ventilation next be cleaned?
There’s no single interval; under TR19® Air, inspection decides. Each report recommends when the system should next be inspected.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
What is TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.
How much notice should we give?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
What if there are not enough access panels?
We list any unreached sections on the report, with the reason. New access panels can be installed so they’re covered next time.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
When something else is needed
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what ventilation duct cleaning will not do:
- Leaking or broken duct sections
- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
- Ventilation that’s undersized for the building
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
