Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Maltman's Hill

When the work is finished, you get a TR19® certificate and before and after pictures. It shows what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the system should next be inspected, giving the ventilation a clean bill of health on paper. Common call-outs are for dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms and damp or stale smells from grilles, on supply ductwork, general extract ductwork and hospitals and care homes.

For a building in or near Maltman's Hill, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.

We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Part by part

Hospitals and care homes

People in hospitals and care homes can be more vulnerable to poor air. Inspecting and cleaning to TR19® Air supports good air quality.

Offices and retail

Offices and shops tend to need the work done outside opening hours so staff and customers aren’t disturbed.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:

  • Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
  • Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
  • Protect the system from construction dust
  • Watch for water stains around grilles

Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.

Keep filters changed on time. Overloaded or poorly seated filters let dust straight through.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Maltman's Hill

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.

The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

Maltman's Hill: your questions answered

Do you cover smaller places like Maltman's Hill?

Yes. Maltman's Hill is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.

Can you come to Maltman's Hill after we close?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Maltman's Hill keeps running as normal. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We carry full insurance, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Who has the legal duty for fire safety?

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.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.

How often should ventilation ductwork be cleaned?

There’s no single interval; under TR19® Air, inspection decides. We suggest a next inspection date after each visit.

What if there aren’t enough access panels?

The report shows exactly which parts weren’t reached. We can install panels to open those sections up.

Does the law say we must follow TR19?

No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.

Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Maltman's Hill

Planned maintenance tends to focus on fans and filters, not the ducts. A building in Maltman's Hill can have well-serviced plant and dirty ductwork at the same time.

Keep an eye out for these warning signs:

  • Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
  • Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
  • Odours carried round the building by the ducts
  • Ductwork with too few access panels to clean

Whether the building is in Maltman's Hill itself or nearby, filters, coils, drain trays and ducts are all part of the work.

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
  • What paperwork you get at the end
  • When the next visit should be, and why
  • Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor

Why deal with it now?

Where a building in Maltman's Hill serves patients, residents or children, putting off ventilation cleaning is hard to justify. Clean ducts are part of providing good air for the people inside. A planned visit to Maltman's Hill is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.

How it works

Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Maltman's Hill.

  1. First the system is surveyed, on site or from photos and drawings.
  2. We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
  3. The area below is protected and the system switched off.
  4. Debris is cleared from the duct runs, then grilles and diffusers are cleaned.
  5. You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
