Brookside: your questions answered
Can a school’s ventilation in Brookside be done out of term time?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Around Brookside, the Food Standards Agency lists about 4 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Send us your term dates when you ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll fit the work in.
Can you work in Brookside outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Which sectors do you work in?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?
TR19® Air is risk-based, so cleaning follows inspection rather than a fixed calendar. Each report recommends when the system should next be inspected.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not usually. The area we’re working in has to be out of use while we’re there, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
Can you price the work without visiting?
In many cases, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Where we can’t see enough, we arrange a survey.
Ventilation duct cleaning in Brookside, done properly
Toilet, washroom and general extract ducts gather dust, fluff and debris. Supply ducts pick up whatever gets past the filters. We clean both, keeping the work tidy and the building protected. Typical jobs include rooms that feel airless when the system runs and odours carried round the building by the ducts, on general extract ductwork, toilet extract systems and offices and schools.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with photos, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

How the job changes from site to site
Grilles and diffusers
Dark streaks round a ceiling diffuser can be a sign of dirty supply air. The grilles are cleaned and the ducts behind inspected.
Extract ductwork
Washroom extracts handle damp air, which makes dirt stick. They’re cleaned and their condition recorded.
What happens on the day
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Somewhere like Brookside, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- The work area is protected and the system switched off.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- The report records what was cleaned, anything not reached and a next inspection date.
How to prepare
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Advice
Honest limits
Ventilation duct cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Problems with how the system is controlled
- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.

For landlords and multi-site operators
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
You’ll get a fixed price before any work starts. It takes into account:
- The condition of the system
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
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. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Keeping the system healthy
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
- Log every filter change
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report after the clean. BESA advises keeping certificates in the maintenance log, with the date, location and technician on record.
TR19® Air works through regular inspection. Inspecting on a schedule catches build-up before it becomes a big clean.
