Ventilation duct cleaning in Broad Tenterden, 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 we look before we clean. We are often asked to deal with ductwork never cleaned since it was installed and ductwork that hasn’t been inspected, on grilles and diffusers, toilet extract systems and supply ductwork.
For a building in or near Broad Tenterden, 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.
A written report with pictures follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The size of the system
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.
What we need to know
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We normally come back within one working day.
Do you need ventilation duct cleaning in Broad Tenterden?
Refits and building work send dust into ventilation systems, especially when the system runs during the work. That dust can stay in the ducts long after the builders leave.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
- Construction dust left in ducts after a refit
- Damp or stale smells from grilles
- Dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years
Hospitals such as Benenden Hospital (about 3.8 miles north-west) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Broad Tenterden are no different.

Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Diary the next TR19® Air inspection
- Keep filters changed on time
You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report after the clean. Keep them in the maintenance log, with the date, location and technician recorded.
TR19® Air works through regular inspection. Scheduled inspections spot dust before it becomes a major job.
When something else is needed
Not every problem is solved by ventilation duct cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
- Controls and BMS faults that affect the system
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll tell you honestly.
