- Condensation caused by the building rather than the ducts
- Controls and BMS faults that affect the system
- A system that is not designed to move enough air

Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Tile Hurst
Every ventilation system has ducts bringing air in and ducts taking it out. Dust and debris build up in both, and some of it is blown back into the building. Our cleaning covers the ducts, grilles and diffusers, to TR19® Air. Common call-outs are for rooms that feel airless when the system runs and dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms, on supply ductwork, hospitals and care homes and grilles and diffusers.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Leave it or put it right?
Dust in ducts doesn’t go away on its own. Every year adds to the job, and more of it finds its way back into the building. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before we start.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
FAQs for Tile Hurst
Do you work in villages like Tile Hurst?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Tile Hurst included. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work at weekends in Tile Hurst?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Tile Hurst can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. TR19® itself is not law; it’s a BESA specification. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. To get one, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.
Who is the responsible person?
That depends on who controls the premises. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Do you clean grilles and diffusers?
Yes, together with the ductwork. They show up in the photo report before and after.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. For a village or hamlet like Tile Hurst, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
- We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
- The area below is protected and the system switched off.
- Debris is cleared from the duct runs, then grilles and diffusers are cleaned.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
Getting ready for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
How to get a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we start.

Look out for any of the following:
- Damp or stale smells from grilles
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
- Systems missing access panels
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
