Ventilation duct cleaning in Monkey Street, 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 every job starts with a look inside the ducts. The work covers offices and schools, general extract ductwork and supply ductwork, and common reasons people get in touch are ducts that need a clean before handover and duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Monkey Street questions
Is ventilation duct cleaning available in Monkey Street?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Monkey Street is part of that. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with a few details of the site.
Can you get to a site in Monkey Street?
Yes. Monkey Street is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not normally. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits so parts stay in use.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Every site has its own report.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes. Inspection is the start of the TR19® Air approach, with photos of the inside. We recommend cleaning where the inspection shows it’s due.
Are you accredited?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
What a clean won’t put right
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what ventilation duct cleaning won’t do:
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Grease in kitchen extract systems, cleaned to TR19® Grease instead
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- Toilet extract systems
- Hospitals and care homes
- Supply ductwork
- Offices and schools
- General extract ductwork
- Grilles and diffusers
Do you need ventilation duct cleaning in Monkey Street?
Damp ducts hold onto dirt. Condensation and leaks turn loose dust into a stubborn layer, and it becomes harder to remove.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
- Poor airflow from the vents
- Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
Ventilation work in and around Monkey Street is risk-based: inspect, then clean what needs it.
Before you book anyone
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Whether a written report and pictures are included
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
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.
How the visit works
We’re used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Monkey Street.
- First the system is surveyed, on site or from pictures and drawings.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
How to prepare
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
How to get a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.
Advice
Multi-site and managed buildings
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Monkey Street and across Essex. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. 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 cost of ventilation duct cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The number of sites or systems
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The scale of the work
You won’t find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You’ll typically have a quote within one working day.
Why it’s worth doing now in Monkey Street
Facilities teams are regularly asked to show evidence of ventilation hygiene. A TR19® certificate and photo report from a recent clean give them that. Somewhere as small as Monkey Street, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before any work starts.
Why book with us
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
