Do you survey the system first?
Yes, on every job. The survey shows the layout, the access and the condition before giving a fixed quote.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.

What does TR19 Air cover?
It covers ventilation hygiene for supply and extract systems in offices, schools, hospitals and other buildings. Kitchen extract is covered separately, by TR19® Grease.
How long does ventilation cleaning take?
As a guide, it takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Bigger sites are split into stages, to fit around the building.
How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Horsleycross Street
Supply ducts carry air into the rooms and extract ducts take it away. Dust and debris build up in both, some of which ends up back in the rooms. Our cleaning covers the ducts, grilles and diffusers, to TR19® Air. The work covers supply ductwork, toilet extract systems and offices and schools, and common reasons people get in touch are systems missing access panels and ductwork never cleaned since it was installed.
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.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What we do, step by step
We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. For a village or hamlet like Horsleycross Street, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- Before pictures are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
- Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
- After photos are taken and the certificate and report issued.
Before we arrive
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Related advice
Managing agents and facilities teams in Horsleycross Street
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’re happy to quote for all of it.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.
When to call us in Horsleycross Street
It matters for the people inside: dusty ducts can blow debris back into rooms, restrict airflow and make fans work harder. Where people are vulnerable, as in healthcare and care settings, the stakes are higher.
Most sites get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
- Ventilation full of debris from building work
- Musty smells from the ventilation
- Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
If you manage a school such as Manningtree High School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.
Questions to ask before booking
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Whether a survey comes first
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
Different parts, different methods
Offices and retail
Shared systems in multi-let buildings need access to several areas. We plan access with the managing agent.
Schools and colleges
Busy classrooms send a lot of dust and fibre into extract ducts. Regular inspection keeps on top of it.
Honest limits
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- A system that is not designed to move enough air
- Leaks from roofs, pipes or walls into the ductwork
- Building management settings that run the plant
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
Where we work
- Hospitals and care homes
- Grilles and diffusers
- General extract ductwork
- Toilet extract systems
- Supply ductwork
- Offices and schools
Between visits
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Diary the next TR19® Air inspection
- Stick to the filter change schedule
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
Share the report with whoever looks after the building’s maintenance, so the history stays together. Over time, it shows how quickly the system gets dirty.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.
How we price ventilation duct cleaning
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- How big the system is
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before we start.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The site address and the type of premises
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
