How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Dunsden Green
We always start by inspecting. The ducts are opened at access points and the condition recorded, then recommend cleaning where it’s needed. That keeps the work in proportion to the risk. The work covers supply ductwork, toilet extract systems and offices and schools, and common reasons people get in touch are ductwork that hasn’t been inspected and rooms that feel airless when the system runs.
In a village or hamlet like Dunsden Green, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Part by part
Hospitals and care homes
People in hospitals and care homes can be more vulnerable to poor air. Inspection-led cleaning under TR19® Air helps keep systems in good condition.
Supply ductwork
Supply ductwork delivers conditioned air to each room. Fine dust that gets past the filters settles along the runs, and we remove it through access panels.
Questions from Dunsden Green
Do you offer ventilation duct cleaning in Dunsden Green?
Yes, Dunsden Green is within the area we cover across London and the South East. To start, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with a few photos of the system.
Do you work overnight in Dunsden Green?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you’ll get one fixed quote.
How often should ventilation ductwork be cleaned?
TR19® Air is risk-based, so cleaning follows inspection rather than a fixed calendar. We suggest a next inspection date after each visit.
What do you do to protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before we start, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
What’s TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
Not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The legal duty sits in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
What your team can do, and what needs us
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
Dunsden Green buildings and their air
The FSA’s food hygiene register lists about 5 hospitals, care homes and childcare premises with registered kitchens or food service across Dunsden Green and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Busy, occupied buildings like these are where clean supply air matters most. Dunsden Green, about 36 miles from central London, is within our usual area. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you. Royal Berkshire Hospital is the nearest hospital, about 2.8 miles south of Dunsden Green. Clean air matters most where people are unwell, and that’s as true in a care home as in a hospital.
If you manage a school such as St Martin's Catholic Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

How it works

- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- We open the ductwork through its access panels.
- Before photos are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- After photos are taken and the certificate and report issued.
Preparing for the visit

- Let us know about parking and loading
- Find the previous report, if there is one

- Duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning
