Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Broomhill
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 every job starts with a look inside the ducts. The work covers general extract ductwork, toilet extract systems and grilles and diffusers, and common reasons people get in touch are blocked general extract ductwork and poor airflow from the vents.
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.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after each visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Questions from Broomhill
Can you work in Broomhill outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Broomhill keeps running as normal. When you call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
Can ventilation in schools around Broomhill be cleaned out of term?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Around Broomhill, the Food Standards Agency lists about 2 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Do you provide a report?
Yes. You get a certificate with the date, location and technician, along with pictures before and after.
What do you do with what you remove?
We take it away when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. TR19® itself isn’t law; it’s a BESA specification. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
What does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. You get a fixed price before we start.
How the visit works
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Broomhill, let us know and we will plan around it.
- 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.
- We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
- The report records what was cleaned, anything not reached and a next inspection date.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: 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.

Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Don’t run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Don’t block grilles with furniture or storage
- Keep filters changed on time
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
Share the report with whoever looks after the building’s maintenance, so the history stays together. Year on year, it shows how fast dust builds up.
TR19® Air works through regular inspection. Scheduled inspections spot dust before it becomes a major job.
What happens if it’s left?
If a building in Broomhill has just been refitted, now is the time to clean the ductwork. Otherwise the dust from the works comes out of the grilles once it’s switched back on. It’s simpler to plan the work at Broomhill now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
What you pay 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.

Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Broomhill
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.
Clients normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
- Grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt
- Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
- Stuffy rooms and stale air
School buildings such as Wingham Primary School are usually done in the holidays, so classrooms are not disturbed.
Questions to ask before you book
- What insurance they carry
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether the price is fixed
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
How the job changes from site to site
Extract ductwork
A dirty extract duct makes its fan work harder. Clearing the duct helps the fan do its job.
Hospitals and care homes
In care settings, keeping dust contained is a priority. We protect the work area and take everything away.
