Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in West Ealing
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. We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers to TR19® Air. If you have blocked general extract ductwork and stuffy rooms and stale air, we can put it right, from offices and schools, general extract ductwork and supply ductwork onwards.
London buildings often depend on air handling units in plant rooms or on the roof to supply fresh air. In a building in West Ealing, dust and debris build up in the units and ductwork over time, which is what TR19® Air cleaning deals with.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Do you need ventilation duct cleaning in West Ealing?
It matters for the people inside: dusty ducts can blow debris back into rooms, restrict airflow and make fans work harder. In hospitals, care homes and schools, clean air is especially important.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Blocked general extract ductwork
- Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
If you run an office near Hanwell station, its supply ductwork can gather dust for years before anyone looks inside.
Comparing quotes

- What paperwork you get at the end
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: 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, and that is where we come in.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.

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. All told, the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Managed blocks in London often need contractors booked in ahead, and we’re happy to deal with the agent directly for a site in West Ealing.
- We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
- We open the ductwork through its access panels.
- Before photos are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
- Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
- After photos are taken and the certificate and report issued.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Getting a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures 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.

Extract ductwork
Extract fans pull air through these ducts, so a blocked duct strains them. Clearing the duct helps the fan do its job.
Schools and colleges
Schools and colleges are easiest to clean during the holidays, with nobody in the classrooms.
Ventilation duct cleaning in West Ealing: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 49 schools, colleges and universities, about 99 caring premises (care homes, nurseries and hospitals) and about 5 hotels and B&Bs registered as food businesses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of West Ealing. Classrooms, bedrooms and care spaces are often served by ducted air, and that ductwork collects dust over time. Many London buildings have had their ductwork altered through several fit-outs, so an inspection comes first. Ealing Hospital is the nearest hospital, about within half a mile south-west of West Ealing. Hospitals show how much a building can rely on its ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites rely on theirs too.
Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Ealing Hospital (about within half a mile south-west) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts. Wherever a school like St Joseph's Catholic Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.

Common questions in West Ealing
What do you need to know about parking in West Ealing?
London parking can be tight, so details of loading bays and permits help. Much of our London work is done overnight, which helps.
Can ventilation in schools around West Ealing be cleaned out of term?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 49 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of West Ealing. Send us your term dates when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we’ll fit the work in.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
Not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The legal duty sits in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
What happens to the waste?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it doesn’t spread.
What is TR19® Air?
The two cover different systems: general ventilation for TR19® Air and kitchen extract for TR19® Grease. TR19® Air takes an inspection-led, risk-based approach.
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.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not typically. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Bigger sites can be done in stages to keep things running.
Keeping the system healthy
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Flag any dust coming out of the vents
- Keep filters changed on time
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
Share the report with whoever looks after the building’s maintenance, so it’s all in one place. Over time, it shows how quickly the system gets dirty.
Fit access panels where the ductwork can’t be reached. The worst build-up tends to be where no one can look.
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The times the site is available
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Any permits to work or inductions
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The site address and the type of premises
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Damaged ductwork beyond cleaning
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
- Building management settings that run the plant
If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
