Ventilation duct cleaning across Kentsboro

About our ventilation duct cleaning in Kentsboro

Every ventilation system has ducts bringing air in and ducts taking it out. Over time, both collect dust and debris, and some of it is blown back into the building. We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers to TR19® Air. The work covers general extract ductwork, offices and schools and hospitals and care homes, and the jobs we see most are extract ducts clogged with lint and dust and ducts that need a clean before handover.

In a village or hamlet like Kentsboro, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.

Each visit ends with a written report and pictures, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Kentsboro

Do you work overnight in Kentsboro?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Kentsboro keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Do you cover Kentsboro for ventilation duct cleaning?

Yes, we work in Kentsboro and the places around it. Get in touch with the details and we will arrange a survey.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.

Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?

In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. That is generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. If you’re not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.

Which sectors do you work in?

Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.

What happens if you cannot reach some of it?

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

How often should ventilation ductwork be cleaned?

Under TR19® Air, the answer comes from inspecting the ducts. Busy or sensitive buildings may need it more often.

What does TR19 mean?

BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.

Why it’s worth doing now in Kentsboro

Dust in ducts doesn’t go away on its own. The longer it’s left, the more there is to remove, and the more gets blown back into the rooms. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.

Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.

Different parts, different methods

Grilles and diffusers

Grilles and diffusers are where the ducts meet the room. They’re cleaned along with the ductwork, so the room side matches the duct side.

Supply ductwork

We check supply ducts at intervals along each run before deciding what to clean.

Looking after it afterwards

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:

  • Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
  • Keep to the inspection interval in your report
  • Stick to the filter change schedule
  • Protect the system from construction dust

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

Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Kentsboro.

  1. We look at the system and any earlier reports.
  2. Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
  3. We cover the area below and turn off the system.
  4. Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
  5. The report records what was cleaned, anything not reached and a next inspection date.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site

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, you get a fixed price before we start.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • How easy every part is to reach
  • The condition we find in the survey
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
  • The number of sites or systems

The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:

  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to

Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and any previous report or certificate. Then call 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

What staff can safely do

When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.

Honest limits

We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work can’t put right:

  • Ventilation that is undersized for the building
  • Grease in kitchen extract systems, cleaned to TR19® Grease instead
  • Leaks from roofs, pipes or walls into the ductwork

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly before you book.
