What staff can safely do
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, alongside our reports.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Iwade
Inspection comes first. We look inside the ductwork at set points and record what’s there, then recommend cleaning where it’s needed. That way the work matches the real condition. We’re often asked to deal with systems missing access panels and toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff, across supply ductwork, offices and schools and toilet extract systems.
Visits to a place like Iwade are fitted around opening hours. The work is the same as in any town: inspect, clean, record.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Visits to a place like Iwade are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the survey says the job needs.
- We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
- Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate and report issued.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Getting 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 we start.

What a clean will not put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
- Design problems with the ductwork layout
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think before you book.

Different parts, different methods
Schools and colleges
Classrooms full of people, paper and coats produce plenty of dust. Inspection shows when cleaning is due.
Extract ductwork
Extract fans pull air through these ducts, so a blocked duct strains them. Clearing the duct helps the fan do its job.
Ventilation in Iwade buildings
Food Standards Agency data includes about 4 hospitals, care homes and childcare premises across Iwade and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Where buildings like these have air handling units, filters, coils and drain trays need regular attention. About 36 miles out from central London, Iwade is part of the South East area we work across. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.
For schools like Iwade School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.
Iwade is about 2 miles north of Sittingbourne, in Kent.

What’s near Iwade

Common problems we fix in Iwade
Building work is one of the biggest sources of debris in ducts, particularly if it’s left running while work goes on. Plaster, wood and masonry dust can sit in the ducts for years.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Systems missing access panels
- Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning
- Stuffy rooms and stale air
- Musty smells from the ventilation
Ventilation work in and around Iwade is risk-based: inspect, then clean what needs it.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- Parking and loading at the site
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The times the site is available
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The site address and the type of premises
- Problems your staff have spotted
For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We normally come back within one working day.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Iwade questions
Do you work overnight in Iwade?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Iwade needn’t be disturbed. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Will you come out to Iwade?
Yes, Iwade is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Which sectors do you work in?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
What do you do with what you remove?
We contain it and take it with us. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
Do you inspect before cleaning?
Yes. TR19® Air is inspection-led, so we look inside the ducts at set points, with pictures of the inside. We recommend cleaning where the inspection shows it’s due.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we’ll quote them together.
Will you clean the vents in the rooms?
Yes. Where they can be removed, they’re taken down, cleaned and refitted. The rest are cleaned where they are.
