Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Lidsey
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. The work covers general extract ductwork, offices and schools and toilet extract systems, and people most often call us about stuffy rooms and stale air 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.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What staff can safely do
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: 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, and that is where we come in.
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, alongside our reports.
What ventilation duct cleaning looks like in Lidsey
The FSA’s food hygiene register lists about 11 schools, colleges and universities and about 3 hospitals, care homes and childcare premises with registered kitchens or food service in and around Lidsey, up to about a mile and a half out. Where buildings like these have air handling units, filters, coils and drain trays need regular attention. Lidsey, about 53 miles from central London, is within our usual area. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. Lidsey’s nearest hospital, Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital, is about 1.9 miles south. Hospitals show how much a building can rely on its ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites rely on theirs too.
Wherever a school like Aldingbourne Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time. Healthcare buildings such as Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital, about 1.9 miles south, depend on their ventilation; if you manage a surgery, clinic or care home near Lidsey, yours matters too.

Multi-site and managed buildings
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- How easy every part is to reach
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- The site address and the type of premises
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- A few general shots of the system
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Lidsey
Can you come to Lidsey after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Lidsey doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. When you call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you work in villages like Lidsey?
Yes. Lidsey is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
What is TR19® Air?
TR19® Air applies to the general ventilation in buildings like offices, schools and hospitals. Kitchen extract systems fall under TR19® Grease instead.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, where the photos show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, and the quote follows that.
What does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before work begins.
How do you protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
What the work involves, part by part
Hospitals and care homes
Dust control matters during work in occupied care settings. The area is protected, and debris contained and removed.
Grilles and diffusers
Every duct ends at a grille or diffuser in the room. They’re cleaned along with the ductwork, so dust on them isn’t blown back in.

How the visit works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Lidsey and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We survey the system from drawings, photos or a site visit.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.

Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- Keep to the inspection interval in your report
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.
TR19® Air works through regular inspection. Scheduled inspections spot dust before it becomes a major job.
