What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Ventilation duct cleaning in Poling
We get into the ducts through access panels along each run. Where there are not enough panels to reach every section, we note the uncleaned parts in the report, and new access panels can be installed so they’re covered next time. The work covers supply ductwork, toilet extract systems and hospitals and care homes, and people most often call us about ducts that need a clean before handover and ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection.
For a building in or near Poling, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How easy every part is to reach
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Where the site is and how we reach it
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.
What we need to know
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and photos, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
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. All told, the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Poling before we set off.
- 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.
- We take after pictures and send the certificate and report.
Before we arrive
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Clear the space around the work
- Find the previous report, if there is one
Getting a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.

What the work involves, part by part
Supply ductwork
Anything in a supply duct can end up in the rooms it feeds. Cleaning it deals with the source.
Schools and colleges
We plan the work around the school calendar and agree access with the site team.
When it’s something else
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Grease in kitchen extract systems, cleaned to TR19® Grease instead
- Design problems with the ductwork layout
- Building management settings that run the plant
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think before booking.

FAQs for Poling
Can you come to Poling after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Is Poling within the area you cover?
Yes. Poling is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
How much time does a ventilation clean need?
Work on site takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. We’ll know more after the survey, and you can call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email to arrange it.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not typically. Visits are timed for when the area is closed, such as overnight or at a weekend, so you keep your normal hours.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.
Keeping the system healthy
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Diary the next TR19® Air inspection
- Do not block grilles with furniture or storage
- Watch for water stains around grilles
Before any works, think about the ducts. Switch it off or cover the grilles while dusty work goes on.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as moisture makes dust stick.
For landlords and multi-site operators
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.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
