Part by part
Hospitals and care homes
Hospitals and care homes are occupied day and night. The work is sequenced with staff so care carries on.
Extract ductwork
Extract ducts take air out of toilets, washrooms and general areas. They collect dust, lint and fibres and slowly narrow.
Ventilation duct cleaning in Bobbingworth, done properly
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that deals with general supply and extract ventilation. It works by inspecting first and cleaning where the risk calls for it, so every job starts with a look inside the ducts. The work covers general extract ductwork, grilles and diffusers and supply ductwork, and people most often call us about stuffy rooms and stale air and ventilation full of debris from building work.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

What happens on the day
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, and that takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Bobbingworth.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
How to prepare
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not 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.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
Leave it or put it right?
Clean ducts let the air move as designed, which puts less load on the fans. Leaving them means the plant works harder for the same result. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
What you pay 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 we start, so there are no surprises.

Common questions in Bobbingworth
Do you offer ventilation duct cleaning in Bobbingworth?
Yes, Bobbingworth is covered. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with a few details of the site.
Do you work overnight in Bobbingworth?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
How long does ventilation cleaning take?
It takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. The size of the system and the access make the biggest difference.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
Do we get a certificate after the clean?
Yes. The certificate records the date and location of the work and the technician, plus a photo report.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
What is TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Keeping the system healthy
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Log every filter change
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
A TR19® certificate and photo report follow every clean. Keep them in the maintenance log, with the date, location and technician recorded.
Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overdue or badly fitted filters let dust into the supply ducts.
When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Damaged ductwork beyond cleaning
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
