About our ventilation duct cleaning in Little Ilford
Supply ducts carry air into the rooms and extract ducts take it away. Dust and debris build up in both, some of which ends up back in the rooms. We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers to TR19® Air. The work covers toilet extract systems, grilles and diffusers and offices and schools, and the jobs we see most are ductwork never cleaned since it was installed and dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms.
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 Little Ilford, dust settles in the units and ducts year after year, which is what TR19® Air cleaning deals with.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- What state the system is in
- The number of sites or systems
- Parking and loading at the site
- Site rules, permits and inductions
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Any previous report or certificate
- The site address and the type of premises
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
To get a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos 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. You’ll typically have a quote within one working day.

Aftercare tips
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Do not run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Include grilles in the cleaning rota
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters let dust straight back in.
TR19® Air works through regular inspection. Scheduled inspections spot dust before it becomes a major job.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
What happens on the day
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, clear away and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Security desks and permits-to-work are routine in London, so let us know what your building in Little Ilford needs from us.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- We inspect the ducts at chosen points to see where cleaning is needed.

When to call us in Little Ilford
Most ductwork is out of sight, so nobody sees the build-up. The grilles get a wipe, but what’s behind them does not.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Poor airflow from the vents
- Musty smells from the ventilation
- Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection
- Dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years
School buildings such as Sir John Heron Primary School are normally done in the holidays, so classrooms are not disturbed.
