Ventilation duct cleaning in Hailey, done properly
Inspection comes first. We look inside the ductwork at set points and record what’s there, and cleaning is recommended where the inspection shows it’s due. That way the work matches the real condition. We are often asked to deal with systems missing access panels and grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt, on toilet extract systems, grilles and diffusers and supply ductwork.
In a village or hamlet like Hailey, 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 is why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Leave it or put it right?
Where a building in Hailey serves patients, residents or children, putting off ventilation cleaning is hard to justify. Clean ducts are part of providing good air for the people inside. In a place like Hailey, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.

What else we do in Hailey
Common problems we fix in Hailey
Many systems run for long hours, day after day, and every hour of running brings more dust with it. Heavier use means faster build-up.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
- Ventilation full of debris from building work
- Stuffy rooms and stale air
- Damp or stale smells from grilles
School buildings such as Roselands Primary School are typically done in the holidays, so classrooms aren’t disturbed.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- How they set the interval to the next visit
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Hailey and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- After photos are taken and the certificate and report issued.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Related advice
Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- Log every filter change
The report includes a recommended date for the next inspection, based on what we found. Diary it right away so it doesn’t slip.
Do not let construction dust into the ventilation by switching it off or covering the grilles.
Honest limits
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
- Leaking or broken duct sections
- Building management settings that run the plant
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Part by part
Hospitals and care homes
Hospitals and care homes are occupied day and night. We plan the order of work with the site team so care carries on.
Schools and colleges
Schools and colleges are easiest to clean during the holidays, when classrooms are empty.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
FAQs for Hailey
Do you do school ventilation cleaning in Hailey in the summer holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 16 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Hailey, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll fit the work in.
Will you come out to Hailey?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Hailey included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that cannot wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
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. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
How do you protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
Are you insured?
Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.
What is TR19® Air?
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that covers general supply and extract ventilation, rather than kitchen extract. It works on inspection and risk, while TR19® Grease covers kitchen extract systems.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.
