Mersham: your questions answered
Do you offer ventilation duct cleaning in Mersham?
Yes. Our area runs across London and the South East, Mersham included. You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us what needs doing.
Can you work in Mersham outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
What happens if parts of the ductwork cannot be reached?
We clean what we can reach and note the rest. Fitting access panels tends to be the answer, and we can quote for them.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
What is TR19® Air?
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that covers general supply and extract ventilation, rather than kitchen extract. It’s risk-based and led by inspection, while TR19® Grease covers kitchen extract systems.
What do you do with what you remove?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it does not spread.
How much time does a ventilation clean need?
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.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Mersham
Every clean ends with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. The report lists what we cleaned, any sections not reached and a recommended next inspection, so you have it all on record. Common call-outs are for ductwork that hasn’t been inspected and stuffy rooms and stale air, across toilet extract systems, supply ductwork and grilles and diffusers.
For a building in or near Mersham, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before any work starts, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. The timing of a visit to Mersham is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First the system is surveyed, on site or from pictures and drawings.
- Ducts are inspected at access points and the condition recorded.
- The area below is protected and the system switched off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It takes into account:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The size of the system
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.
What happens if it’s left?
Leave dust in the ductwork and it keeps building. The longer it’s left, the more there is to remove, and the more gets blown back into the rooms. With notice, the visit to Mersham can be fitted around your bookings and events.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

- One number for every site across the South East and London
- Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover

What else we do in Mersham
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Between visits
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Stick to the filter change schedule
- Diary the next TR19® Air inspection
- Report dust blowing from grilles straight away
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.
Make sure there are enough access panels to inspect and clean the ducts. The worst build-up tends to be where no one can look.
