Ventilation duct cleaning in Norwood New Town
Every ventilation system has ducts bringing air in and ducts taking it out. Dust and debris build up in both, some of which ends up back in the rooms. We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers to TR19® Air. Common call-outs are for systems missing access panels and ventilation full of debris from building work, on grilles and diffusers, toilet extract systems and hospitals and care homes.
London buildings often depend on air handling units in plant rooms or on the roof to supply fresh air. For a building in Norwood New Town, dust settles in the units and ducts year after year, which is what TR19® Air cleaning deals with.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Questions from Norwood New Town
Can you come to Norwood New Town after we close?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Norwood New Town does not have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Do you do school ventilation cleaning in Norwood New Town in the summer holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 35 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Norwood New Town. You can call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the dates the site is empty.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes. We always survey first, on site or from pictures and drawings, and then quote a fixed price.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not usually. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits to keep things running.
What’s TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
What is TR19® Air?
The two cover different systems: general ventilation for TR19® Air and kitchen extract for TR19® Grease. Under TR19® Air, inspection decides when cleaning is needed.
How do you protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
Part by part
Schools and colleges
Holidays and weekends are the natural time to clean school ventilation, when classrooms are empty.
Hospitals and care homes
In healthcare and care settings, there’s no quiet time. We plan the order of work with the site team so care carries on.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Managed blocks in London often need contractors booked in ahead, and we are happy to deal with the agent directly for a site in Norwood New Town.
- First the system is surveyed, on site or from pictures and drawings.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

Advice
When to call us in Norwood New Town
Most ductwork is out of sight, so nobody sees the build-up. Grilles may be wiped, but the ducts behind them rarely are.
Most sites get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
- Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
- Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
Hospitals such as St Christopher's Hospice (about 1.5 miles east) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Norwood New Town are no different.

Between visits
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Log every filter change
- Don’t run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
- Watch for water stains around grilles
Change filters on schedule so the clean ducts stay clean. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.
Protect the system during building work by switching it off or covering the grilles.
Multi-site and managed buildings
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Why it’s worth doing now in Norwood New Town
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. Planning ahead in Norwood New Town lets you pick a quiet night rather than lose a busy one.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
