TR19 air cleaning of general supply and extract ventilation ductwork in commercial buildings for businesses, landlords and public buildings in Hungerford. BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease.
- Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
- Grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
What the work involves, part by part
Supply ductwork
Dust in supply ducts can be blown straight into occupied rooms. Cleaning it deals with the source.
Hospitals and care homes
In care settings, keeping dust contained is a priority. The area is protected, and debris contained and removed.
Ventilation duct cleaning in Hungerford, done properly
We always start by inspecting. The ducts are opened at access points and the condition recorded, then recommend cleaning where it’s needed. That keeps the work in proportion to the risk. Typical jobs include supply ducts with years of dust inside and construction dust left in ducts after a refit, across offices and schools, general extract ductwork and grilles and diffusers.
For a building in or near Hungerford, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Questions from Hungerford
Can you get to a site in Hungerford?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Hungerford included. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you clean school ventilation in Hungerford in the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 2 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Hungerford. You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the dates the site is empty.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Yes, for many jobs. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and we normally come back within one working day. If pictures are not enough, we will survey first.
Will we have paperwork to show the system was cleaned?
Yes. Every clean comes with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. Keep them in the maintenance log.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Flag any dust coming out of the vents
- Keep filters changed on time
The report includes a recommended date for the next inspection, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air. Put it in the diary now so it isn’t missed.
Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as moisture makes dust stick.
For landlords and multi-site operators
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Hungerford
Most ductwork is out of sight, so dust collects unseen. Grilles may be wiped, but the ducts behind them rarely are.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning
- Blocked general extract ductwork
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
If you manage a school such as Waltham St Lawrence Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- What paperwork you get at the end
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- What insurance they carry
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
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.

What affects the quote in Hungerford
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- How easy every part is to reach
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How big the system is
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Your last certificate, test record or report
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before work begins.
