Ventilation duct cleaning in Marley, Kent
We cover Marley for ventilation duct cleaning. Fixed quotes, work around your opening hours and photo reports as standard.
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
- Ventilation full of debris from building work
What happens on the day
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Marley can be planned properly.
- We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- We take after photos and send the certificate and report.
Before we arrive
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Move anything stored near the system
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
Ask for a quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Marley
When the work is finished, you get a TR19® certificate and before and after pictures. The report lists what we cleaned, any sections not reached and a recommended next inspection, giving the ventilation a clean bill of health on paper. Common call-outs are for ventilation full of debris from building work and musty smells from the ventilation, on supply ductwork, hospitals and care homes and offices and schools.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Common questions in Marley
Can you get to a site in Marley?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Marley included. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you work in Marley outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, if we can see what we need. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
Are grilles and diffusers included?
Yes. Grilles and diffusers are cleaned as part of the job, so dust isn’t left at the outlets.
Do we get a certificate after the clean?
Yes. Every clean comes with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. BESA advises keeping certificates in the maintenance log.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
What should I send you?
Just the basics: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and the last report help too. Then call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.

What staff can safely do
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
What happens if it’s left?
Starting with an inspection means you only clean what needs it. Skipping it leaves you guessing. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.

- Full insurance on every job
- Trading since 2009

Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Marley
Many systems run for long hours, day after day, and every hour moves more dust through the ducts. The busier the building, the faster it builds up.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Construction dust left in ducts after a refit
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
- Toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff
Wherever a school like Harrietsham Church of England Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.
What your quote should include
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Proof of insurance
