Ventilation duct cleaning across Langley

How the visit works

Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Everything the job in Langley needs is worked out beforehand, from the survey.

  1. We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
  2. Inspection comes next, with pictures of the inside of the ducts.
  3. We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
  4. We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
  5. You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

Getting a quote

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

About our ventilation duct cleaning in Langley

Beyond the kitchen, TR19® Air covers the ordinary supply and extract systems that serve offices, schools and other buildings. It works by inspecting first and cleaning where the risk calls for it, so we look before we clean. We’re often asked to deal with ducts that need a clean before handover and toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff, on grilles and diffusers, offices and schools and general extract ductwork.

Visits to a place like Langley are fitted around opening hours. The method doesn’t change: inspect first, clean, then record what was done.

Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.

Part by part

Offices and retail

In offices and retail, we often work evenings, overnight or at weekends to keep the space open.

Hospitals and care homes

In care settings, keeping dust contained is a priority. The area is protected, and debris contained and removed.

Between visits

Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
  • Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
  • Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
  • Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work

Pass the paperwork to your facilities or maintenance team, so it’s all in one place. Year on year, it shows how fast dust builds up.

Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as moisture makes dust stick.

Common problems we fix in Langley

Ventilation hygiene often gets left out of planned maintenance. Plant can be well serviced while the ductwork goes untouched for years.

These are the problems we see most often:

  • Dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years
  • Stuffy rooms and stale air
  • Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
  • Damp or stale smells from grilles

If you manage offices or shops near Langley station, their ventilation can be inspected and cleaned out of hours.

Questions from Langley

Can you get to a site in Langley?

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

Can a school’s ventilation in Langley be done out of term time?

Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Around Langley, the Food Standards Agency lists about 11 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. You can call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the dates the site is empty.

Will we have to shut during the visit?

Not normally. We work when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends, so you keep your normal hours.

What happens to the waste?

We take it away when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.

Who has the legal duty for fire safety?

The law calls them the responsible person. That is generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.

What does TR19 mean?

TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We carry full insurance, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Does the law say we must follow TR19?

Not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurers ask for proof of cleaning to it. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.
