Ventilation duct cleaning in Townsend
Inspection comes first. We look inside the ductwork at set points and record what’s there, and cleaning is recommended where the inspection shows it’s due. That way the work matches the real condition. The work covers general extract ductwork, offices and schools and toilet extract systems, and people most often call us about dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers and extract ducts clogged with lint and dust.
For a building in or near Townsend, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
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, next to our reports.
Different parts, different methods
Extract ductwork
A dirty extract duct makes its fan work harder. A clean duct takes the load off.
Offices and retail
Fit-outs in offices and shops leave dust in the ventilation. Cleaning before the new occupants move in makes sense.

FAQs for Townsend
Do you work overnight in Townsend?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Is Townsend within the area you cover?
Yes. Townsend is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before we start.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not typically. We work when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends, so you keep your normal hours.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from photos, drawings or a site visit, then we give you a fixed quote.
How do you deal with ducts you can’t get into?
Nothing is hidden: any section we couldn’t get into is listed. We can install panels to open those sections up.

- Systems missing access panels
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
- Damp or stale smells from grilles

Questions to ask before booking
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- Whether they recommend a next date
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
What ventilation duct cleaning cannot fix
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what ventilation duct cleaning won’t do:
- Leaking or broken duct sections
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
- Condensation caused by the building rather than the ducts
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover

How it works
We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Townsend run smoothly.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- We inspect the ducts at chosen points to see where cleaning is needed.
- The work area is protected and the system switched off.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

Aftercare tips
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
- Stick to the filter change schedule
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
If there’s building work planned, protect the ventilation. Switch it off or cover the grilles while dusty work goes on.
Keep filters changed on time. Overloaded or poorly seated filters let dust straight through.
How we price ventilation duct cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- What state the system is in
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
What we need to know
We can often survey from photos. Try to include:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
