Ventilation duct cleaning in St George's Fields
When the work is finished, you get a TR19® certificate and before and after pictures. The report lists what we cleaned, any sections not reached and a recommended next inspection, so you have it all on record. If you are dealing with ductwork with too few access panels to clean and ducts that need a clean before handover, we can help.
Across London, offices, hotels, schools and healthcare buildings rely on mechanical ventilation, much of it supplied through air handling units on roofs or in basements. In a building in St George's Fields, dust and debris build up in the units and ductwork over time, which is what TR19® Air cleaning deals with.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in St George's Fields
How do you handle parking and loading in St George's Fields?
London parking can be tight, so details of loading bays and permits help. If the building has a loading slot system, we’ll book into it.
Do you clean school ventilation in St George's Fields in the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. There are about 111 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of St George's Fields. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost in St George's Fields?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before work begins.
How often should ventilation ductwork be cleaned?
That varies with the building, the filters and how hard the system works. Inspecting regularly shows when cleaning is needed.
Who is the responsible person?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
How long does ventilation cleaning take?
Expect it to take from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. How much ductwork there is and how easily it’s reached decide the rest.
How does TR19 Air differ from TR19 Grease?
TR19® Air applies to the general ventilation in buildings like offices, schools and hospitals. Kitchen extract systems fall under TR19® Grease instead.
Do you cover St George's Fields?
Yes. We cover St George's Fields and the rest of Greater London, as part of our work across South East England and London. To book, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Multi-site and managed buildings
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.

Buildings like these often rely on mechanical ventilation, which TR19® Air covers. The nearest hospital to St George's Fields is General Lying-In Hospital, about 0.5 miles west. If you run a surgery, clinic or care home, your ventilation deserves the same care as a hospital’s, on a smaller scale.

For schools like St George's Cathedral Catholic Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation. Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like General Lying-In Hospital (about 0.5 miles west) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts.

Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Stick to the filter change schedule
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Don’t run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Watch for water stains around grilles
Pass the paperwork to your facilities or maintenance team, so the history stays together. Year on year, it shows how fast dust builds up.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as moisture makes dust stick.
The process
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. In a London area like St George's Fields, parking, loading and building access are planned before the day of the work.
- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- Before pictures are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
- Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
- We take after pictures and send the certificate and report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Move anything stored near the system
Getting a quote
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 we start.

Different parts, different methods
Extract ductwork
Toilet and washroom extract can carry moisture as well as dust, which makes dirt stick. We clean them and note any damp or corrosion.
Supply ductwork
Supply ducts carry air from the AHU into the rooms. Fine dust that gets past the filters settles along the runs, and we remove it through access panels.
