About our ventilation duct cleaning in West Hampstead
Every ventilation system has ducts bringing air in and ducts taking it out. Dust and debris build up in both, some of which ends up back in the rooms. Our cleaning covers the ducts, grilles and diffusers, to TR19® Air. If you have toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff and ductwork that hasn’t been inspected, we can put it right.
London buildings tend to keep their plant on the roof or below ground, so ventilation cleaning in West Hampstead is normally planned out of hours. Loading and parking are planned with the building first.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

What staff can safely do
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

FAQs for West Hampstead
Does London parking affect a job in West Hampstead?
Tell us where a van can stop near your site in West Hampstead, and about any building rules on loading. Night visits tend to make loading easier on London streets.
Can you come to West Hampstead after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
How often should ventilation ductwork be cleaned?
That varies with the building, the filters and how hard the system works. Regular inspection tells you when it’s due.
What does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Ask us for a fixed quote, normally ready within one working day.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
How much notice do you need?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes. Inspection is the start of the TR19® Air approach, with photos of the inside. We recommend cleaning where the inspection shows it’s due.
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The condition we find in the survey
- Where the site is and how we reach it
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The postcode and the type of business

What happens on the day
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. A name and number for whoever controls access to the building in West Hampstead saves time on the night.
- 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.

How to prepare

What we’re called out for in West Hampstead
Filters never catch everything, so fine dust settles in supply ductwork over the years. Extract ducts collect whatever the rooms give off: dust, fibres and lint.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
- Grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt
- Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
- Blocked general extract ductwork
Wherever a school like Emmanuel Church of England Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.
