Book ventilation duct cleaning in Murston

Managing agents and facilities teams in Murston

Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.

Ventilation duct cleaning in Murston

Beyond the kitchen, TR19® Air covers the ordinary supply and extract systems that serve offices, schools and other buildings. It works by inspecting first and cleaning where the risk calls for it, so every job starts with a look inside the ducts. If you are dealing with rooms that feel airless when the system runs and dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms, we can help.

Visits to a place like Murston are fitted around opening hours. The work is the same as in any town: inspect, clean, record.

We’ve been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

What ventilation duct cleaning can’t fix

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:

  • Damaged ductwork beyond cleaning
  • Ventilation that’s undersized for the building
  • Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean

If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

Where we work

  • Hospitals and care homes
  • Offices and schools
  • Toilet extract systems
  • Supply ductwork
  • Grilles and diffusers
  • General extract ductwork

Common problems we fix in Murston

Refits and building work send dust into ventilation systems, particularly if it’s left running while work goes on. That dust can stay in the ducts long after the builders leave.

Look out for these warning signs:

  • Toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff
  • Systems missing access panels
  • Poor airflow from the vents
  • Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms

Classrooms and halls at schools such as Sunny Bank Primary School are easiest to work in when pupils are away.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether VAT is included
  • Whether a survey comes first
  • Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
  • What paperwork you get at the end

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

What happens if it’s left?

Starting with an inspection means you only clean what needs it. Putting the inspection off just means you do not know where you stand. Booking now means the visit to Murston is planned around you, not forced by a breakdown.

The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.

Why choose Duct Doctor in Murston

  • Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover
  • Fixed quotes from a survey or photos
  • Every visit written up, with photos
  • Every job surveyed first

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

FAQs for Murston

Do you clean school ventilation in Murston in the holidays?

Yes, holiday work suits schools best. With about 17 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Murston, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the dates the site is empty.

Can you get to a site in Murston?

Yes, Murston is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.

What’s TR19?

TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.

Do you clean grilles and diffusers?

Yes, along with the ducts behind them. They show up in the photo report before and after.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.

Do we lose a day’s trading?

Not normally. The area we are working in has to be out of use while we’re there, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.

The process

Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Your opening hours decide when we come to Murston, not ours.

  1. We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
  2. We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
  3. The area below is protected and the system switched off.
  4. We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
  5. We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us where we can park and unload
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
