Ventilation duct cleaning in Selsdon, surveyed first and signed off with a written report and pictures. Call for a fixed quote.
- Odours carried round the building by the ducts
- Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Selsdon
Toilet, washroom and general extract ducts gather dust, fluff and debris. Supply ducts pick up whatever gets past the filters. Both are cleaned, with the area protected and the mess contained. Typical jobs include extract ducts clogged with lint and dust and ductwork never cleaned since it was installed, across hospitals and care homes, offices and schools and supply ductwork.
Smaller buildings around Selsdon often keep their ventilation units in a roof void or plant cupboard, where they’re easy to forget. Filters, coils and drain trays need attention whatever the size of the unit.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What happens on the day
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before any work starts, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. A site near Selsdon usually has room to park, so the questions are about access to the system and your hours.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
- The report records what was cleaned, anything not reached and a next inspection date.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

Grilles and diffusers
Where they come out, grilles are taken down and cleaned, then put back.
Extract ductwork
Extract fans pull air through these ducts, so a blocked duct strains them. Clearing the duct helps the fan do its job.
Fixed quotes for ventilation duct cleaning in Selsdon
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The condition of the system
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The times the site is available
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
What to send for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- A few general shots of the system
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
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, you get a fixed price before work begins.
What staff can safely do
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.
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.
When to call us in Selsdon
Moisture in ducts makes dust stick. Condensation and leaks turn loose dust into a stubborn layer, which is harder to shift later.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Odours carried round the building by the ducts
- Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection
- Grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt
- Supply ducts with years of dust inside
School buildings such as Selsdon Primary and Nursery School are usually done in the holidays, so classrooms aren’t disturbed.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- When the next visit should be, and why
FAQs for Selsdon
Can you clean school ventilation in Selsdon during the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. With about 14 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Selsdon, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your term dates and we will plan around them.
Do you work in villages like Selsdon?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Selsdon is covered. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Normally, yes. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and we usually come back within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we’ll say so.
How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost in Selsdon?
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.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. Landlords, facilities managers and managing agents can also hold responsibility.
Are grilles and diffusers included?
Yes. Grilles and diffusers are cleaned as part of the job, so dust isn’t left at the outlets.
How does TR19 Air differ from TR19 Grease?
It covers ventilation hygiene for supply and extract systems in offices, schools, hospitals and other buildings. Kitchen extract systems fall under TR19® Grease instead.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Aftercare tips
So the system stays in good health:
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
- Do not run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
The report lists the sections we cleaned and any we couldn’t reach, backed up by before and after pictures. If access panels are needed, we will say where.
Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as moisture makes dust stick.
