Ventilation Duct Cleaning in The Valley

Ventilation duct cleaning in The Valley, done properly
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. If you are dealing with systems missing access panels and supply ducts with years of dust inside, we can help.
Somewhere as small as The Valley, ducted ventilation is usually limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

FAQs for The Valley
Can you work in The Valley outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in The Valley needn’t be disturbed. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Do you offer ventilation duct cleaning in The Valley?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and The Valley is part of that. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day of the survey details.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not normally. We work when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends, so the site can carry on as normal.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before we start.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes, always. The survey shows the layout, the access and the condition before giving a fixed quote.
What do you do to protect the area?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
What about areas you cannot get to?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Why deal with it now?
Landlords, tenants and auditors may want proof the ventilation is looked after. Having a recent certificate and photo report for a building in The Valley answers the question. If the system at a site near The Valley fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Log every filter change
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
- Flag any dust coming out of the vents
You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report after the clean. BESA advises keeping certificates in the maintenance log, with the date, location and technician on record.
Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overdue or badly fitted filters let dust into the supply ducts.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
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.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to The Valley run smoothly.
- We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
- Inspection comes next, with pictures 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.
- A certificate and before and after pictures follow, with anything not reached recorded.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

What else we do in The Valley
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The size of the system
- The number of sites or systems
- The times the site is available
- Parking and loading at the site
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Helping us quote
We can often survey from photos. The most useful are:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- A few general shots of the system
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Where we work
- Grilles and diffusers
- Hospitals and care homes
- Supply ductwork
- Offices and schools
- General extract ductwork
- Toilet extract systems
What we are called out for in The Valley
Filters never catch everything, so fine dust settles in supply ductwork over the years. Extract ducts pick up dust, fibres and fluff from the rooms they serve.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
- Systems missing access panels
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
In The Valley, we look inside the system before deciding what needs cleaning.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- What hours they’ll be on site
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
