How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Framfield
When the work is finished, you get a TR19® certificate and before and after photos. It shows what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the system should next be inspected, giving the ventilation a clean bill of health on paper. We’re often asked to deal with stuffy rooms and stale air and damp or stale smells from grilles, across general extract ductwork, grilles and diffusers and supply ductwork.
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.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with pictures of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Framfield: your questions answered
Can you work in Framfield outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Framfield can fit around your hours. When you call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you work in villages like Framfield?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Framfield is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Do we get a certificate after the clean?
Yes, both a certificate and a photo report. The report lists what was cleaned, anything not reached and the next inspection date.
What’s TR19?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
What about areas you cannot get to?
We record them on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
What types of premises do you cover?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you will get one fixed quote.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
What happens if it’s left?
Leave dust in the ductwork and it keeps building. The longer it’s left, the more there is to remove, and the more gets blown back into the rooms. A planned visit to Framfield is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before work begins.
What you get with us
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
- Full insurance on every job
- CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, with ISO 9001
- Every visit written up, with photos

Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Flag any dust coming out of the vents
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
Pass the paperwork to your facilities or maintenance team, so the history stays together. Year on year, it shows how fast dust builds up.
Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overloaded or poorly seated filters let dust straight through.
When it’s something else
We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Leaks from roofs, pipes or walls into the ductwork
- Grease in kitchen extract systems, cleaned to TR19® Grease instead
- Ventilation that is undersized for the building
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Part by part
Grilles and diffusers
Dust marks around grilles can point to dirt further back in the system. The grilles are cleaned and the ducts behind inspected.
Supply ductwork
Supply runs are inspected at set points first before deciding what to clean.
The process
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. 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 work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Framfield and turn up when the site is quiet.
- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- We open the ductwork through its access panels.
- We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- We take after photos and send the certificate and report.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

What your team can do, and what needs us
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
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, which is where we come in.
