About our ventilation duct cleaning in Little Chelsea
Ventilation duct cleaning is something we carry out for buildings in Little Chelsea and right across Greater London, from offices and schools to hospitals, care homes and shops. Every job begins with a survey and a fixed quote. If you are dealing with ventilation full of debris from building work and ductwork that hasn’t been inspected, we can put it right.
In London, plant rooms are often in basements or on roofs reached through occupied floors, so work in Little Chelsea is often done in the evening or at weekends. Parking and loading are agreed with the building in advance.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Leave it or put it right?
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. In a London building, a problem in a duct, damper or fan rarely stays in one unit.
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.

What a clean will not put right
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Condensation caused by the building rather than the ducts
- Design problems with the ductwork layout
- Grease in kitchen extract systems, cleaned to TR19® Grease instead
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Grilles and diffusers
- Offices and schools
- Hospitals and care homes
- Toilet extract systems
- Supply ductwork
- General extract ductwork
Part by part
Supply ductwork
Supply ductwork delivers conditioned air to each room. Fine dust that gets past the filters settles along the runs, and it’s cleaned out through access panels.
Offices and retail
Fit-outs in offices and shops leave dust in the ventilation. A clean before handover is a sensible step.
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 are happy to quote for all of it.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
What we do, step by step
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Night and weekend working is normal for us in London, and a site in Little Chelsea is no exception.
- We survey the system from drawings, photos or a site visit.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
How to prepare
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Common questions in Little Chelsea
Can parking be tricky for a job in Little Chelsea?
A loading bay, a visitor permit or off-street space near the site in Little Chelsea makes the visit easier to plan. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit typically gets round them.
Can you come to Little Chelsea after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. When you call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
What does TR19 Air cover?
TR19® Air deals with general ventilation, while TR19® Grease deals with kitchen extract. Under TR19® Air, inspection decides when cleaning is needed.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote and we’ll normally reply within one working day.
Do we get a certificate after the clean?
Yes. You get a TR19® certificate and a report with before and after photos. Keep them in the maintenance log.
How much time does a ventilation clean need?
Work on site takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. The survey gives us a clearer idea, so phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us to get started.
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The size of the system
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will typically have a quote within one working day.

What we are called out for in Little Chelsea
Damp ducts hold onto dirt. Condensation and leaks turn loose dust into a stubborn layer, and it becomes harder to remove.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
- Damp or stale smells from grilles
- Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning
- Systems missing access panels
Hospitals such as Chelsea and Westminster Hospital (about under half a mile west) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Little Chelsea are no different.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether the price is fixed
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
