About our ventilation duct cleaning in Lynsted
Ventilation duct cleaning is something we carry out for buildings in Lynsted and right across Kent, from offices and schools to hospitals, care homes and shops.

What we’re called out for in Lynsted
Filters never catch everything, and that fine dust settles along the supply ducts. Extract ducts pick up dust, fibres and fluff from the rooms they serve.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
- Toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff
- Grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt
- Construction dust left in ducts after a refit
If you manage a school such as Lynsted and Norton Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- What state the system is in
- Travel, parking and unloading
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.
What to send for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- A few general shots of the system
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Your last certificate, test record or report

Managing agents and facilities teams in Lynsted
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.

Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Lynsted
Can you come to Lynsted after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Lynsted can fit around your hours. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
Can a school’s ventilation in Lynsted be done out of term time?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. With about 2 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Lynsted, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we’ll fit the work in.
Which sectors do you work in?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
What about areas you cannot get to?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.
How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?
It depends on the building, how the system is used and what inspection finds. Inspecting regularly shows when cleaning is needed.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
It depends on the building. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.
What does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before work begins.

- Clear loose items from the work area

Related advice
What the work involves, part by part
Offices and retail
Refits in commercial space often leave construction dust in the ducts. Cleaning before the new occupants move in makes sense.
Extract ductwork
Extract fans pull air through these ducts, so a blocked duct strains them. A clean duct takes the load off.
