When the work is finished, you get a TR19® certificate and before and after pictures. It shows what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the system should next be inspected, giving the ventilation a clean bill of health on paper. If you have grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt and ductwork that hasn’t been inspected, we can help.
For a building in or near Aldermaston Wharf, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

What we’re called out for in Aldermaston Wharf

Look out for these warning signs:

- Dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years
- Poor airflow from the vents
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
For buildings in and around Aldermaston Wharf, TR19® Air cleaning starts with an inspection.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. The timing of a visit to Aldermaston Wharf is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- 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.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- A certificate and before and after pictures follow, with anything not reached recorded.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
Getting a quote

Between visits
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
- Don’t run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
If there’s building work planned, protect the ventilation. Switch it off or cover the grilles while dusty work goes on.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as moisture makes dust stick.
Common questions in Aldermaston Wharf
Is ventilation duct cleaning available in Aldermaston Wharf?
Yes. Our area runs across London and the South East, Aldermaston Wharf included. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day of the survey details.
Is Aldermaston Wharf within the area you cover?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Aldermaston Wharf included. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Who is the responsible person?
It depends on the building. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not usually. The area we’re working in has to be out of use while we are there, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
How often should ventilation ductwork be cleaned?
Under TR19® Air, the answer comes from inspecting the ducts. Heavily used buildings, or those with vulnerable occupants, may need attention more often.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
How does TR19 Air differ from TR19 Grease?
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.
