Common questions in Bowcombe
Can you come to Bowcombe after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Do you cover Bowcombe for ventilation duct cleaning?
Yes, Bowcombe is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just call 0345 646 2711, or email photos with a few details of the site.
Which sectors do you work in?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Do you provide a report?
Yes. Every clean comes with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. Keep them in the maintenance log.
How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?
That varies with the building, the filters and how hard the system works. Regular inspection tells you when it’s due.
Are you accredited?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
What do you do to protect the area?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
About our ventilation duct cleaning in Bowcombe
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that deals with general supply and extract ventilation. It’s risk-based and inspection-led, so every job starts with a look inside the ducts. If you are dealing with toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff and odours carried round the building by the ducts, we can put it right.
For a building in or near Bowcombe, 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.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Bowcombe.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
Preparing for the visit

Related advice
For landlords and multi-site operators
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Between visits
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Log every filter change
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
Pass the paperwork to your facilities or maintenance team, 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. Hidden sections are the ones that get worst.
Part by part
Supply ductwork
Supply ductwork delivers conditioned air to each room. Dust that slips past the filters builds up inside, and we remove it through access panels.
Offices and retail
Shared systems in multi-let buildings need access to several areas. Access is agreed with the building manager.
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- The condition of the system
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The size of the system
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The postcode and the type of business
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
