How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Moulsham
Every clean ends with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. 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. If you have poor airflow from the vents and dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years, we can put it right, from supply ductwork, general extract ductwork and toilet extract systems onwards.
Around a place like Moulsham, ventilation systems tend to be in schools, surgeries, care homes and workplaces. Smaller systems still gather dust and need inspecting.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

Moulsham questions
Can ventilation in schools around Moulsham be cleaned out of term?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. There are about 35 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Moulsham. Send us your term dates when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll fit the work in.
Do you work at weekends in Moulsham?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Moulsham can fit around your hours. Just call 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Often, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
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 will normally reply within one working day.
What if there are not enough access panels?
The report shows exactly which parts weren’t reached. Access panels can be added where necessary.
Will you clean the vents in the rooms?
Yes. We clean the grilles and diffusers along with the ductwork, so the room side is clean too.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
How long will the duct cleaning take?
Expect it to take anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. The size of the system and the access make the biggest difference.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
What staff can safely do
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
What we do, step by step
Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the ventilation duct cleaning, clear away and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. Evenings, weekends or a closed day all work for a site in a place like Moulsham.
- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- We open the ductwork through its access panels.
- We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate and report issued.
Getting ready for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Advice
When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What the work covers
- Grilles and diffusers

- General extract ductwork
- Supply ductwork
- Toilet extract systems
Why deal with it now?
Clean ducts let the air move as designed, which puts less load on the fans. Leaving them means the plant works harder for the same result. Even a site near Moulsham that’s only busy part of the week needs its system checked on a schedule.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
Why us?
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- Photo reports with every job
- Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover
- CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, with ISO 9001
