Ventilation duct cleaning in Fiddlers Hamlet
Every clean ends with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. It shows what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the system should next be inspected, so you have it all on record. Common call-outs are for rooms that feel airless when the system runs and odours carried round the building by the ducts, across grilles and diffusers, general extract ductwork and toilet extract systems.
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.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What we do, step by step
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Fiddlers Hamlet, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- We survey the system from drawings, photos or a site visit.
- Ducts are inspected at access points and the condition recorded.
- The area below is protected and the system switched off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
How to prepare

Keeping the system healthy
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
- Watch for water stains around grilles
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
Share the report with whoever looks after the building’s maintenance, so it’s all in one place. Over time, it shows how quickly the system gets dirty.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as moisture makes dust stick.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
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.

Is TR19 a legal requirement?
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 law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Can you quote from photos?
In many cases, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Some photos and a quick description of the system, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we will ask.
Who is the responsible person?
It depends on the building. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, facilities manager or managing agent.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you’ll get one fixed quote.
