How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Chartridge
Beyond the kitchen, TR19® Air covers the ordinary supply and extract systems that serve offices, schools and other buildings. It’s risk-based and inspection-led, so every job starts with a look inside the ducts. We are often asked to deal with toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff and ductwork with too few access panels to clean, across toilet extract systems, supply ductwork and hospitals and care homes.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
We have been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

Looking after it afterwards
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Watch for water stains around grilles
- Keep filters changed on time
We recommend when the system should next be inspected, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air. Put it in the diary now so it is not missed.
Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overdue or badly fitted filters let dust into the supply ducts.
What happens on the day
Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Chartridge.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- The work area is protected and the system switched off.
- We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
How to prepare
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
You will get a fixed price before work begins. It takes into account:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The scale of the work
- Parking and loading at the site
- The number of sites or systems
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Useful things to send:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.
Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Chartridge
Do you cover smaller places like Chartridge?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Chartridge included. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you clean school ventilation in Chartridge in the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 5 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Chartridge, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we’ll fit the work in.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes. TR19® Air is inspection-led, so we look inside the ducts at set points and record what we find. Cleaning is recommended where it’s needed.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
Can you clean without closing the building?
Yes. The work is planned around the building’s hours. Schools are often done in the holidays and offices out of hours.
How long will the duct cleaning take?
Typically, the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Large buildings can be phased, often out of hours, and we will confirm the plan when we quote.
How much does ventilation duct cleaning cost in Chartridge?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before any work starts.
Do we get a certificate after the clean?
Yes. The certificate records the date and location of the work and the technician, along with photos before and after.
Honest limits
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Building management settings that run the plant
- Leaking or broken duct sections
- Grease in kitchen extract systems, cleaned to TR19® Grease instead

What your team can do, and what needs us
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
