What happens if it’s left?
Dust streaks around grilles and stale rooms suggest the ducts need looking at. Acting early keeps the clean simpler. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Rudley Green
We always start by inspecting. The ducts are opened at access points and the condition recorded, and cleaning is recommended where the inspection shows it’s due. That keeps the work in proportion to the risk. We are often asked to deal with dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years and systems missing access panels, on grilles and diffusers, offices and schools and general extract ductwork.
In a village or hamlet like Rudley Green, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Part by part
Schools and colleges
Busy classrooms send a lot of dust and fibre into extract ducts. Inspection shows when cleaning is due.
Supply ductwork
We check supply ducts at intervals along each run to see where cleaning is needed.
What your team can do, and what needs us
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.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

Keeping the system healthy
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Watch for water stains around grilles
- Protect the system from construction dust
The report includes a recommended date for the next inspection, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air. Diary it straight away so it does not slip.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.
For landlords and multi-site operators
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
Rudley Green: your questions answered
Do you work overnight in Rudley Green?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Rudley Green keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Do you work in villages like Rudley Green?
Yes, Rudley Green is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
The Fire Safety Order 2005 calls them the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.
Will you look at the ducts before quoting?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from photos, drawings or a site visit, and then quote a fixed price.
Which sectors do you work in?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No, not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.
The process
Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the ventilation duct cleaning, tidy up and leave you the report. On site, the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Visits to a village like Rudley Green are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- We take after photos and send the certificate and report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
How to get a quote
Getting a quote does not take long. Call or email with a few details and you will normally have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
