Ventilation duct cleaning in Lisson Grove, done properly
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that deals with general supply and extract ventilation. It works by inspecting first and cleaning where the risk calls for it, so we look before we clean. Common call-outs are for systems with no record of inspection or cleaning and dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers, on toilet extract systems, offices and schools and grilles and diffusers.
London offices and flats often have ductwork added through successive refits, with old runs left behind that are hard to reach. In Lisson Grove, as elsewhere, cleaning starts with an inspection of what’s there.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

What happens on the day
Night work is normal for us. 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 day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. Night and weekend working is normal for us in London, and a site in Lisson Grove is no exception.
- We survey the system from drawings, pictures or a site visit.
- We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
- We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
- Debris is cleared from the duct runs, then grilles and diffusers are cleaned.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
How to prepare
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know about parking and loading

Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Ventilation duct cleaning around Lisson Grove

Maida Vale Hospital for Nervous Diseases is the nearest hospital, about 0.5 miles west of Lisson Grove. Healthcare ventilation is a good example of why supply ducts need inspecting: the air goes straight to patients. In London, ventilation plant is often on the roof or below ground, so the work is usually done out of hours.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Lisson Grove
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
What affects the quote in Lisson Grove
You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The size of the system
- How easy every part is to reach
- The times the site is available
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.
Helping us quote
We can often survey from pictures. Try to include:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.

- Systems missing access panels
- Ventilation full of debris from building work
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
For workplaces around London Marylebone station with mechanical ventilation, cleaning can be done in the evening or at weekends.

How the job changes from site to site
Grilles and diffusers
Where they come out, grilles are taken down and cleaned, then refitted.
Supply ductwork
Supply ductwork delivers conditioned air to each room. Dust that slips past the filters builds up inside, and it’s cleaned out through access panels.
