The process
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Visits to a village like Bradwell are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
- We open the ductwork through its access panels.
- We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- We take after photos and send the certificate and report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Tell us where we can park and unload

About our ventilation duct cleaning in Bradwell
When the work is finished, you get a TR19® certificate and before and after photos. 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 ductwork with too few access panels to clean and ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection, we can put it right, from supply ductwork, offices and schools and toilet extract systems onwards.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Why deal with it now?
Where a building in Bradwell serves patients, residents or children, putting off ventilation cleaning is hard to justify. Good indoor air starts with a clean system. Somewhere as small as Bradwell, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.

Ventilation in Bradwell buildings
There are about 3 hospitals, care homes and childcare premises on the FSA’s food hygiene register in and around Bradwell, up to about a mile and a half out. Where buildings like these have air handling units, filters, coils and drain trays need regular attention. About 3.3 miles west of Bradwell is William Julien Courtauld Hospital, the nearest hospital.

Do you need ventilation duct cleaning in Bradwell?
It matters for the people inside: dirt in the ducts can come back out of the grilles, slow the air and add strain on fans. In hospitals, care homes and schools, clean air is especially important.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Stuffy rooms and stale air
- Musty smells from the ventilation
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
- Systems missing access panels
School buildings such as Alec Hunter Academy are typically done in the holidays, so classrooms aren’t disturbed.
What your quote should include
- Whether a survey comes first
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether a written report and photos are included
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- How big the system is
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Parking and loading at the site
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
What we need to know
We can often survey from photos. The most useful are:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Bradwell
Do you offer ventilation duct cleaning in Bradwell?
Yes, Bradwell is covered. A fixed quote typically follows within one working day of the survey details.
Can you come to Bradwell after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Bradwell needn’t be disturbed. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we’ve been trading since 2009.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
How does TR19 Air differ from TR19 Grease?
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that covers general supply and extract ventilation, rather than kitchen extract. It works on inspection and risk, and kitchen extract falls under TR19® Grease.
What about areas you can’t get to?
We record them on the report, with photos where possible, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Don’t run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Watch for water stains around grilles
- Log every filter change
The report includes a recommended date for the next inspection, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air. Diary it straight away so it does not slip.
Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overloaded or poorly seated filters let dust straight through.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
