Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Upper Dicker
A dusty duct in a building in Upper Dicker is more than an eyesore. It can restrict airflow, make the system work harder and send dust back into occupied rooms. Cleaning restores the clear airway the system was designed with. If you’re dealing with dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years and ventilation full of debris from building work, we can put it right, from toilet extract systems, general extract ductwork and supply ductwork onwards.
For a building in or near Upper Dicker, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we’re fully insured.

Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Diary the next TR19® Air inspection
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters let dust straight back in.
Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overloaded or poorly seated filters let dust straight through.
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Upper Dicker.
- First the system is surveyed, on site or from pictures and drawings.
- Ducts are inspected at access points and the condition recorded.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Tell us where we can park and unload

Fixed quotes for ventilation duct cleaning in Upper Dicker
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Any permits to work or inductions
- How easy every part is to reach
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to send for a quote
We can often survey from pictures. Try to include:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Any previous report or certificate
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
What a clean won’t put right
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:

FAQs for Upper Dicker
Do you work at weekends in Upper Dicker?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Upper Dicker needn’t be disturbed. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Is ventilation duct cleaning available in Upper Dicker?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Upper Dicker is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we’ll arrange a survey.
What does TR19 Air cover?
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that covers general supply and extract ventilation, rather than kitchen extract. It’s risk-based and led by inspection, while TR19® Grease covers kitchen extract systems.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Will you clean the vents in the rooms?
Yes. We clean the grilles and diffusers along with the ductwork, so dust isn’t left at the outlets.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
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.
How the job changes from site to site
Offices and retail
Shared systems in multi-let buildings need access to several areas. Access is agreed with the building manager.
Supply ductwork
Supply ducts carry air from the AHU into the rooms. Dust that slips past the filters builds up inside, and it’s cleaned out through access panels.
Multi-site and managed buildings
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
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 to a regular schedule.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
