What we do, step by step
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Newtown.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- We inspect the ducts at chosen points to see where cleaning is needed.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- The report records what was cleaned, anything not reached and a next inspection date.
Getting ready for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
Getting a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.
Advice
How we price ventilation duct cleaning
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The scale of the work
- The number of sites or systems
- The times the site is available
- Where the site is and how we reach it
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
Need a price for ventilation duct cleaning? Please give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with a few details about the site. We’ll talk you through the work and give you a fixed quote before you commit to anything.
Why it’s worth doing now in Newtown
Landlords, tenants and auditors may want proof the ventilation is looked after. Having a recent certificate and photo report for a building in Newtown answers the question. In a small place like Newtown, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before work begins.
Why us?
- Ventilation hygiene specialists since 2009
- Fixed quotes from a survey or pictures
- Survey first, then a fixed quote
- We’re fully insured

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Do not run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Flag any dust coming out of the vents
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
The report includes a recommended date for the next inspection, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air. Diary it right away so it is not missed.
TR19® Air works through regular inspection. Inspecting on a schedule catches build-up before it becomes a big clean.
Common questions in Newtown
Can the work in Newtown be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Newtown keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Will you come out to Newtown?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Newtown included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Will you look at the ducts before quoting?
Yes, on every job. The survey shows the layout, the access and the condition, so the quote is fixed before any work starts.
How much time does a ventilation clean need?
Work on site takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. The survey gives us a clearer idea, and you can ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line to arrange it.
Do we need to close while you work?
Normally not. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits so parts stay in use.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
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.
What do you do with what you remove?
We take it away when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
Are you insured?
Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and the details are available on request.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Newtown
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Kent. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Ventilation duct cleaning in Newtown: local notes
Queen Victoria Hospital is the nearest hospital, about 5.4 miles south-west of Newtown. Healthcare ventilation is a good example of why supply ducts need inspecting: the air goes straight to patients. About 24 miles out from central London, Newtown is part of the South East area we work across. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the visit fits around the site.
Classrooms and halls at schools such as Hever Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School are easiest to work in when pupils are away. Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Queen Victoria Hospital (about 5.4 miles south-west) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts.
Newtown is about 6 miles north-east of East Grinstead, in Kent. Whatever kind of site you run in Newtown, we can take on ventilation duct cleaning. We can work out of hours so trading is not interrupted. Newtown is one of 922 places in Kent where we work for ventilation duct cleaning. Maidstone is in our area too, around 19 miles away.
We work across the TN8 postcode area for ventilation duct cleaning and the streets around it. If you need ventilation duct cleaning at premises on Pigdown Lane and Uckfield Lane or a nearby road, we can help. If your site is just outside Newtown, we cover Markbeech (1 mile south), Hever (1 mile north), Chiddingstone Hoath (1 mile south-east), How Green (2 miles north) and Walter's Green (3 miles south-east).

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Controls and BMS faults that affect the system
- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- General extract ductwork
- Supply ductwork
- Grilles and diffusers
- Offices and schools
- Toilet extract systems
- Hospitals and care homes
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
