Ventilation duct cleaning for sites in Strawberry Hill

Common questions in Strawberry Hill

How do you handle parking and loading in Strawberry Hill?

London parking can be tight, so details of loading bays and permits help. Much of our London work is done overnight, which helps.

Do you work at weekends in Strawberry Hill?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Strawberry Hill doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

What if there are not enough access panels?

Accessible sections are cleaned and the others recorded. Fitting access panels tends to be the answer, and we can fit them.

What’s TR19?

TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.

Who has the legal duty for fire safety?

That depends on who controls the premises. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.

What types of premises do you cover?

Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.

How much time does a ventilation clean need?

Typically, the work 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’ll confirm the plan when we quote.

How far ahead should we book?

The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We normally quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.

How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Strawberry Hill

We get into the ducts through access panels at intervals along the system. If some sections can’t be reached, the report says so, and new access panels can be installed for the next clean. We’re often asked to deal with ductwork never cleaned since it was installed and duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning, on grilles and diffusers, general extract ductwork and offices and schools.

London buildings tend to keep their plant on the roof or below ground, so ventilation cleaning in Strawberry Hill is normally planned out of hours. Parking and loading are agreed with the building in advance.

The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

For landlords and multi-site operators

Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.

When to call us in Strawberry Hill

It matters for the people inside: 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.

Clients typically contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
  • Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
  • Systems missing access panels
  • Damp or stale smells from grilles

Workplaces around Strawberry Hill station with an air handling unit need the filters, coils and drain tray looked at, as well as the ducts.

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
  • Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
  • Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
  • Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Watch for water stains around grilles
  • Keep filters changed on time
  • File each ventilation report with the building records
  • Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning

We recommend when the system should next be inspected, based on what we found. Diary it straight away so it does not slip.

Do not let construction dust into the ventilation by switching it off or covering the grilles.

How the visit works

We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Many London buildings have a managing agent, a security desk or a permit-to-work system, so tell us who to contact in Strawberry Hill.

  1. First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
  2. Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
  3. We cover the area below and turn off the system.
  4. Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
  5. We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

Part by part

Supply ductwork

Dust in supply ducts can be blown straight into occupied rooms. Cleaning it deals with the source.

Offices and retail

Offices and shops tend to need the work done outside opening hours so staff and customers aren’t disturbed.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
