Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Densole
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. If you are dealing with supply ducts with years of dust inside and damp or stale smells from grilles, we can put it right.
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.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

How the visit works
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Densole knowing what to expect.
- 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.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
How to prepare
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Tell us where we can park and unload

Advice
What staff can safely do
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
What ventilation duct cleaning cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Problems with how the system is controlled
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Grease in kitchen extract systems, cleaned to TR19® Grease instead
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- Toilet extract systems
- Grilles and diffusers
- Offices and schools
- Supply ductwork
- General extract ductwork
- Hospitals and care homes
Common problems we fix in Densole
Planned maintenance tends to focus on fans and filters, not the ducts. A building in Densole can have well-serviced plant and dirty ductwork at the same time.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
- Odours carried round the building by the ducts
- Duct runs that cannot be reached for cleaning
- Blocked general extract ductwork
School buildings such as Hawkinge Primary School are normally done in the holidays, so classrooms aren’t disturbed.
What your quote should include
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Proof of insurance
- Whether they recommend a next date
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The condition we find in the survey
You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.
What we need to know
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Why it’s worth doing now in Densole
Facilities teams are regularly asked to show evidence of ventilation hygiene. A TR19® certificate and photo report from a recent clean give them that. A fault that closes a site in a village like Densole affects everyone who depends on it.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before work begins.

Common questions in Densole
Can a school’s ventilation in Densole be done out of term time?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 2 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Densole. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Do you work at weekends in Densole?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Densole needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
What happens if parts of the ductwork can’t be reached?
Nothing is hidden: any section we couldn’t get into is listed. We can install panels to open those sections up.
Who is the responsible person?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and where several people have control, each can have duties. If you’re not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
How far ahead should we book?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.

Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Keep filters changed on time
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.
Protect the system during building work by turning it off or covering the openings.
