What affects the quote in Kevington
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- The number of sites or systems
- The times the site is available
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Travel, parking and unloading
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 we start.
What to send for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- A few general shots of the system
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Kevington
Extract ducts from toilets, changing rooms and general areas collect dust and lint. Supply ducts pick up whatever gets past the filters. Both are cleaned, with the area protected and the mess contained. We are often asked to deal with dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers and toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff, across grilles and diffusers, offices and schools and general extract ductwork.
Across London, offices, hotels, schools and healthcare buildings rely on mechanical ventilation, much of it supplied through air handling units on roofs or in basements. For a building in Kevington, dust settles in the units and ducts year after year.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. We fit London jobs around the building rather than the other way round, so a visit in Kevington is typically out of hours.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- We inspect the ducts at chosen points to see where cleaning is needed.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
How to prepare
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
How to get a quote
To get a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us 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 typically come back within one working day.

What happens if it’s left?
Landlords, tenants and auditors may want proof the ventilation is looked after. A TR19® certificate and photo report from a recent clean give them that. A busy site in Kevington builds up dirt and wear quickly, so putting it off makes the eventual job larger.
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 go through it with you.

What staff can safely do
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Ventilation duct cleaning in Kevington: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 3 schools, colleges and universities and about 7 care, childcare and hospital premises registered as food businesses in Kevington and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Busy, occupied buildings like these are where clean supply air matters most. Kevington’s nearest hospital, Orpington Hospital, is about 2.4 miles south-west. Hospitals show how much a building can rely on its ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites rely on theirs too. In London, ventilation plant is often on the roof or below ground, so the work is typically done out of hours.
For schools like Manor Oak Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.

Do you need ventilation duct cleaning in Kevington?
Most ductwork is out of sight, so nobody sees the build-up. Grilles may be wiped, but the ducts behind them rarely are.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff
- Stuffy rooms and stale air
- Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
Healthcare buildings such as Orpington Hospital, about 2.4 miles south-west, depend on their ventilation; if you manage a surgery, clinic or care home near Kevington, yours matters too.

Kevington: your questions answered
Do you work overnight in Kevington?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Kevington keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Do you do school ventilation cleaning in Kevington in the summer holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. There are about 3 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Kevington. Send us your term dates when you call 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we’ll fit the work in.
What’s TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
What happens to the waste?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
How much time does a ventilation clean need?
Work on site takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. We will know more after the survey, and you can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form to arrange it.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
How do you deal with ducts you cannot get into?
We list any unreached sections on the report, with the reason. We can fit new access panels so they’re covered next time.
Aftercare tips
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Don’t run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
- Flag any dust coming out of the vents
- Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
A TR19® certificate and photo report follow every clean. BESA advises keeping certificates in the maintenance log, with the date, location and technician on record.
Make sure there are enough access panels to inspect and clean the ducts. Hidden sections are the ones that get worst.
