Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Old Heathfield
We cover Old Heathfield and the rest of East Sussex for ventilation duct cleaning, from offices and schools to hospitals, care homes and shops. Each building gets a survey first and a fixed quote. The work covers general extract ductwork, grilles and diffusers and offices and schools, and common reasons people get in touch are ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection and supply ducts with years of dust inside.
In a village or hamlet like Old Heathfield, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Keep to the inspection interval in your report
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
What was cleaned is listed, along with any parts that weren’t accessible, backed up by before and after pictures. If access panels are needed, we’ll say where.
Keep filters changed on time. Overdue or badly fitted filters let dust into the supply ducts.
Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Old Heathfield
Can you work in Old Heathfield outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in Old Heathfield can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Is Old Heathfield in your area for ventilation duct cleaning?
Yes, Old Heathfield is covered. Get in touch with the details and we will arrange a survey.
How far ahead should we book?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We typically quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
How often should ventilation ductwork be cleaned?
That varies with the building, the filters and how hard the system works. Regular inspection tells you when it’s due.
How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Ask us for a fixed quote, typically ready within one working day.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from photos, drawings or a site visit, then we send you a fixed quote.
Will you clean the vents in the rooms?
Yes, along with the ducts behind them. You will see them in the before and after pictures.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.

When to call us in Old Heathfield
Ventilation hygiene often gets left out of planned maintenance. Plant can be well serviced while the ductwork goes untouched for years.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Odours carried round the building by the ducts
- Systems missing access panels
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
Wherever a school like Heathfield Community College has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.
What to look for in a quote
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- If they look at the system before pricing
- What insurance they carry
- Whether the quote shows VAT

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Multi-site and managed buildings
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
