About our ventilation duct cleaning in Tottenham Hale

Every clean ends with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. It shows what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the system should next be inspected, so you have it all on record. The work covers toilet extract systems, hospitals and care homes and supply ductwork, and the jobs we see most are ductwork with too few access panels to clean and musty smells from the ventilation.

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 Tottenham Hale, dust and debris build up in the units and ductwork over time, which is what TR19® Air cleaning deals with.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

When it’s something else

We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what ventilation duct cleaning won’t do:

  • Problems with how the system is controlled
  • Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
  • Leaks from roofs, pipes or walls into the ductwork

If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think.

What the work covers

  • Toilet extract systems
  • Grilles and diffusers
  • Hospitals and care homes
  • Offices and schools
  • General extract ductwork
  • Supply ductwork

How the job changes from site to site

Offices and retail

Fit-outs in offices and shops leave dust in the ventilation. Cleaning before the new occupants move in makes sense.

Hospitals and care homes

Hospitals and care homes are occupied day and night. The work is sequenced with staff so care carries on.

What staff can safely do

When your team notices a problem 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 can diagnose it and quote.

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.

When to call us in Tottenham Hale

Many systems run for long hours, day after day, and every hour moves more dust through the ducts. The busier the building, the faster it builds up.

Common reasons sites call us include:

  • Musty smells from the ventilation
  • Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
  • Ventilation full of debris from building work
  • Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers

Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like North Middlesex University Hospital (about 1.8 miles north) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts.

What your quote should include

  • Whether VAT is included
  • Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
  • What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
  • When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours

Questions to ask before booking

Tottenham Hale questions

Can you clean school ventilation in Tottenham Hale during the holidays?

Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 45 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Tottenham Hale. You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the dates the site is empty.

Is parking a problem for work in Tottenham Hale?

A loading bay, a visitor permit or off-street space near the site in Tottenham Hale makes the visit easier to plan. Much of our London work is done overnight, which helps.

How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?

Under TR19® Air, the answer comes from inspecting the ducts. Heavily used buildings, or those with vulnerable occupants, may need attention more often.

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.

What do you need from me for a quote?

A short description and a few photos plus the address and your hours. We will ask for anything else we need.

Do you work evenings and weekends?

Yes. Evenings, nights and weekends are all available, to keep the building open.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.

Do you look at the system first?

Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.

What affects the quote in Tottenham Hale

We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:

  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • The condition we find in the survey
  • The size of the system
  • The times the site is available

Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

What we need to know

We can often survey from photos. The most useful are:

  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • The site address and the type of premises

To get a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We normally come back within one working day.

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 are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.

The process

Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. In a London area like Tottenham Hale, parking, loading and building access are planned before the day of the work.

  1. We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
  2. Access panels are opened along each run.
  3. We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
  4. We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
  5. We take after pictures and send the certificate and report.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Tell us where we can park and unload

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, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
