How it works
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 it goes on the report too. The visit takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Stisted before we set off.
- We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- The area below is protected and the system switched off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
Before we arrive
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

About our ventilation duct cleaning in Stisted
We always start by inspecting. We look inside the ductwork at set points and record what’s there, then recommend cleaning where it’s needed. That keeps the work in proportion to the risk. The work covers general extract ductwork, grilles and diffusers and supply ductwork, and common reasons people get in touch are ducts that need a clean before handover and extract ducts clogged with lint and dust.
Work in a small place like Stisted starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Stisted questions
Will you come out to Stisted?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Stisted included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can you do ventilation duct cleaning in Stisted?
Yes, Stisted is within the area we cover across London and the South East. You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us what needs doing.
How much notice should we give?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Where does the waste go?
We take it away at the end of the visit. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
How do you deal with ducts you can’t get into?
We list any unreached sections on the report, so it’s clear what’s outstanding. New access panels can be installed so the whole system can be cleaned.
What does TR19 Air cover?
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 long does ventilation cleaning take?
As a guide, it takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Large buildings can be phased, often out of hours, and we will confirm the plan when we quote.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Common problems we fix in Stisted
Why does it matter?: dirt in the ducts can come back out of the grilles, slow the air and add strain on fans. In hospitals, care homes and schools, clean air is especially important.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Odours carried round the building by the ducts
- Grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt
- Toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Stisted, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like St Michael's Hospital (about 3.3 miles west).

How the job changes from site to site
Grilles and diffusers
Dark streaks round a ceiling diffuser can be a sign of dirty supply air. We clean the grilles and look at what’s behind them.
Schools and colleges
We plan the work around the school calendar, with access agreed with the caretaker or site manager.
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. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The number of sites or systems
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
