About our ventilation duct cleaning in Foscot

TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that deals with general supply and extract ventilation. It works by inspecting first and cleaning where the risk calls for it, so we look before we clean. If you’re dealing with ducts that need a clean before handover and toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff, we can put it right, from grilles and diffusers, toilet extract systems and supply ductwork onwards.

In a village or hamlet like Foscot, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.

For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Grilles and diffusers

Offices and retail

Offices and shops tend to need the work done outside opening hours so staff and customers are not disturbed.

How the visit works

We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Foscot knowing what to expect.

  1. We survey the system from drawings, pictures or a site visit.
  2. Ducts are inspected at access points and the condition recorded.
  3. The area below is protected and the system switched off.
  4. Debris is cleared from the duct runs, then grilles and diffusers are cleaned.
  5. You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

Advice

Foscot questions

Can you come to Foscot after we close?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Foscot can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

Will you come out to Foscot?

Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Foscot is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.

What accreditations do you have?

BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.

Are you insured?

Yes, we are fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.

How do you protect the area?

With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.

How long does ventilation cleaning take?

Expect it to take anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. The size of the system and the access make the biggest difference.

What affects the quote in Foscot

The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • The condition of the system
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits

Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.

What we need to know

To help us quote quickly, send us:

  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels

We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Looking after it afterwards

Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Log every filter change
  • Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
  • Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
  • Don’t block grilles with furniture or storage

Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.

Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overloaded or poorly seated filters let dust straight through.

When something else is needed

It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:

  • Condensation caused by the building rather than the ducts
  • Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
  • A system that is not designed to move enough air

If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will say what we think.

What the work covers

  • General extract ductwork
  • Grilles and diffusers
  • Supply ductwork
  • Offices and schools
  • Hospitals and care homes
  • Toilet extract systems

What we are called out for in Foscot

In a building in Foscot, the ventilation may run for long hours every day, and every hour moves more dust through the ducts. Heavier use means faster build-up.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
  • Systems missing access panels
  • Supply ducts with years of dust inside
  • Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms

Classrooms and halls at schools such as Bledington Primary School are easiest to work in when pupils are away.

Before booking anyone

  • Proof of insurance
  • What records you will receive afterwards
  • How VAT is shown on the quote
  • What hours they’ll be on site

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

For landlords and multi-site operators

Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
