Ventilation duct cleaning in Broad Street
Every clean ends with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. 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. Common call-outs are for dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers and musty smells from the ventilation, on offices and schools, grilles and diffusers and toilet extract systems.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
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. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Travel, parking and unloading
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The size of the system
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The site address and the type of premises
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- A few general shots of the system
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before we start.
Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Broad Street

Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. Landlords, facilities managers and managing agents can also hold responsibility.
Can you look after several sites?

Do you clean grilles and diffusers?

How do you deal with ducts you can’t get into?
We clean what we can reach and note the rest. Fitting access panels tends to be the answer, and we can fit them.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
Not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.

Why it’s worth doing now in Broad Street
Smells, dust around grilles and stuffy rooms are signs the system needs attention. Acting early keeps the clean simpler. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
Why book with us
- Fixed quotes, normally within one working day
- BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
- A written report with photos after every visit
- Every job surveyed first
Looking after it afterwards
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t block grilles with furniture or storage
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
Pass the paperwork to your facilities or maintenance team, so it’s all in one place. Year on year, it shows how fast dust builds up.
Keep filters changed on time. Overloaded or poorly seated filters let dust straight through.
How it works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Somewhere as small as Broad Street, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- Before photos are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- We take after photos and send the certificate and report.
How to prepare
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Related advice
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
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.
What the work involves, part by part
Grilles and diffusers
Dust marks around grilles can point to dirt further back in the system. We clean the grilles and look at what’s behind them.
Supply ductwork
Supply ducts carry air from the AHU into the rooms. Fine dust that gets past the filters settles along the runs, and we remove it through access panels.
