Little London: your questions answered
Do you clean school ventilation in Little London in the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 2 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Little London, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. You can ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the dates the site is empty.
Can you get to a site in Little London?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Will you look at the ducts before quoting?
Yes. We always survey first, on site or from photos and drawings, and then quote a fixed price.
How long will the duct cleaning take?
It takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. How much ductwork there is and how easily it’s reached decide the rest.
Will we have paperwork to show the system was cleaned?
Yes. Every clean comes with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. BESA advises keeping certificates in the maintenance log.
How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?
That varies with the building, the filters and how hard the system works. Regular inspection tells you when it’s due.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. We always survey first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. Then you get a fixed quote.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
Not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.
Ventilation duct cleaning in Little London
Every clean ends with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. It shows what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the system should next be inspected, so you have it all on record. We’re often asked to deal with grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt and damp or stale smells from grilles, across hospitals and care homes, supply ductwork and offices and schools.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

What we do, step by step
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Somewhere like Little London, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
- We open the ductwork through its access panels.
- We photograph the ducts, then clean each section in turn.
- Grilles and diffusers are cleaned and refitted.
- We take after pictures and send the certificate and report.
Preparing for the visit
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

What we’re called out for in Little London
Refits and building work send dust into ventilation systems, especially when the system runs during the work. Plaster, wood and masonry dust can sit in the ducts for years.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Supply ducts with years of dust inside
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
- Damp or stale smells from grilles
School buildings such as St Peter's CofE Primary School are typically done in the holidays, so classrooms aren’t disturbed.

Different parts, different methods
Offices and retail
Fit-outs in offices and shops leave dust in the ventilation. A clean before handover is a sensible step.
Hospitals and care homes
People in hospitals and care homes can be more vulnerable to poor air. Inspection-led cleaning under TR19® Air helps keep systems in good condition.

Aftercare tips
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Protect the system from construction dust
- Keep filters changed on time
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
- Do not block grilles with furniture or storage
We recommend when the system should next be inspected, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air. Diary it right away so it does not slip.
Fit access panels where the ductwork cannot be reached. Hidden sections are the ones that get worst.
