- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Lower Padworth
Every ventilation system has ducts bringing air in and ducts taking it out. Dust and debris build up in both, some of which ends up back in the rooms. Our cleaning covers the ducts, grilles and diffusers, to TR19® Air. The work covers supply ductwork, hospitals and care homes and toilet extract systems, and common reasons people get in touch are ductwork never cleaned since it was installed and duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning.
In a village or hamlet like Lower Padworth, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- The condition of the system
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.
What we need to know
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Any previous report or certificate
To get a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll normally have a quote within one working day.

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
- Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
- Keep filters changed on time
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
Before any works, think about the ducts. Turn off the system or cover the openings during dusty jobs.
Regular inspection is the core of TR19® Air. Inspecting on a schedule catches build-up before it becomes a big clean.
How the job changes from site to site
Extract ductwork
Extract ducts take air out of toilets, washrooms and general areas. They collect dust, lint and fibres and slowly narrow.
Schools and colleges
The work is fitted around term dates and events and agree access with the site team.

Lower Padworth questions
Do you cover smaller places like Lower Padworth?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Lower Padworth is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can you come to Lower Padworth after we close?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Lower Padworth needn’t be disturbed. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
How does TR19 Air differ from TR19 Grease?
The two cover different systems: general ventilation for TR19® Air and kitchen extract for TR19® Grease. TR19® Air takes an inspection-led, risk-based approach.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What do you do to protect the area?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes. We always survey first, on site or from pictures and drawings, and then quote a fixed price.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: 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.
