How we price ventilation duct cleaning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Parking and loading at the site
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Site rules, permits and inductions
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are unsure, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
You don’t need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- Any previous report or certificate
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Ventilation duct cleaning in Lee-over-Sands
Inspection comes first. The ducts are opened at access points and the condition recorded, and cleaning is recommended where the inspection shows it’s due. That keeps the work in proportion to the risk. If you’re dealing with dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers and ducts that need a clean before handover, we can help.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
We have been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

What staff can safely do
A few tasks are always specialist work: 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 and specialist work aren’t the same thing. 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. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
What the work involves, part by part
Extract ductwork
Washroom extracts handle damp air, so the dust tends to cling. They’re cleaned and their condition recorded.
Grilles and diffusers
Dust marks around grilles can point to dirt further back in the system. We clean the grilles and look at what’s behind them.
Questions from Lee-over-Sands
Can you work in Lee-over-Sands outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Is ventilation duct cleaning available in Lee-over-Sands?
Yes. Our area runs across London and the South East, Lee-over-Sands included. You can ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and let us know what needs doing.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few photos and any previous report.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No, not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from pictures, drawings or a site visit, and then quote a fixed price.
What happens to the waste?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it does not spread.
Will we have paperwork to show the system was cleaned?
Yes. You get a TR19® certificate and a report with before and after pictures. Keep them in the maintenance log.
