About our ventilation duct cleaning in Combe
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that deals with general supply and extract ventilation. It’s risk-based and inspection-led, so every job starts with a look inside the ducts. The work covers toilet extract systems, offices and schools and supply ductwork, and common reasons people get in touch are systems missing access panels and musty smells from the ventilation.
Work in a small place like Combe starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.

Our area takes in London and the South East, Combe included. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you.

How the job changes from site to site
Schools and colleges
Classrooms full of people, paper and coats produce plenty of dust. Regular inspection keeps on top of it.
Hospitals and care homes
In care settings, keeping dust contained is a priority. The area is protected, and debris contained and removed.
How we price ventilation duct cleaning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The scale of the work
- A single visit or a regular plan
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
For ventilation duct cleaning in Combe, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, and send pictures or your last report if you can. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day.
Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
- Do not block grilles with furniture or storage
- Log every filter change
A TR19® certificate and photo report follow every clean. Keep them in the maintenance log, with the date, location and technician recorded.
Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.
Combe: your questions answered
Can you work in Combe outside opening hours?

What is TR19® Air?
It covers ventilation hygiene for supply and extract systems in offices, schools, hospitals and other buildings. Kitchen extract is covered separately, by TR19® Grease.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?

Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.

- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- We inspect the ducts at chosen points to see where cleaning is needed.

When to call us in Combe
It matters for the people inside: dusty ducts can blow debris back into rooms, restrict airflow and make fans work harder. In hospitals, care homes and schools, clean air is especially important.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Musty smells from the ventilation
- Supply ducts with years of dust inside
- Stuffy rooms and stale air
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
For workplaces around Combe station with mechanical ventilation, cleaning can be done in the evening or at weekends.
