Ventilation duct cleaning in Ryarsh
Beyond the kitchen, TR19® Air covers the ordinary supply and extract systems that serve offices, schools and other buildings. It’s risk-based and inspection-led, so every job starts with a look inside the ducts. Common call-outs are for musty smells from the ventilation and ductwork that hasn’t been inspected, on supply ductwork, grilles and diffusers and toilet extract systems.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Multi-site and managed buildings
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.

Ryarsh questions
Do you do school ventilation cleaning in Ryarsh in the summer holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Around Ryarsh, the Food Standards Agency lists about 9 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the dates the site is empty.
Can you work in Ryarsh outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Do you cover Ryarsh?
Yes. We work in Ryarsh and the rest of Kent, as part of our work across South East England and London. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Do you inspect before cleaning?
Yes, always. The survey shows the layout, the access and the condition before giving a fixed quote.
How long does ventilation cleaning take?
The clean takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. The survey gives us a clearer idea, and you can call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us to arrange it.
Who is the responsible person?
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.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Common problems we fix in Ryarsh
Building work is one of the biggest sources of debris in ducts, particularly if it’s left running while work goes on. That dust can stay in the ducts long after the builders leave.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Construction dust left in ducts after a refit
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
- Odours carried round the building by the ducts
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
Maidstone Hospital, about 4.7 miles south-east, is the nearest hospital to Ryarsh, and healthcare sites of every size need their supply air kept clean.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Whether a written report and pictures are included
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The scale of the work
- Whether several sites go on one quote
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
- Design problems with the ductwork layout
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on in Ryarsh
- Toilet extract systems
- Hospitals and care homes
- Grilles and diffusers
- Supply ductwork
- General extract ductwork
- Offices and schools
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Ryarsh.
- We survey the system from drawings, photos or a site visit.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- A certificate and before and after pictures follow, with anything not reached recorded.
Before we arrive
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Clear the space around the work
How to get a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
