How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Mortlake
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that deals with general supply and extract ventilation. It’s risk-based and inspection-led, so every job starts with a look inside the ducts. The work covers toilet extract systems, supply ductwork and hospitals and care homes, and common reasons people get in touch are ventilation full of debris from building work and dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years.
London buildings tend to keep their plant on the roof or below ground, so ventilation cleaning in Mortlake is typically planned out of hours. Parking and loading are agreed with the building in advance.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Looking after it afterwards
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Stick to the filter change schedule
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Watch for water stains around grilles
The report includes a recommended date for the next inspection, based on what we found. Diary it right away so it does not slip.
Regular inspection is the core of TR19® Air. Inspecting on a schedule catches build-up before it becomes a big clean.

Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Condensation caused by the building rather than the ducts
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
- Controls and BMS faults that affect the system
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Parts of the system we cover

How the job changes from site to site
Hospitals and care homes
Dust control matters during work in occupied care settings. The area is protected, and debris contained and removed.
Extract ductwork
A dirty extract duct makes its fan work harder. A clean duct takes the load off.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. For a job in Mortlake, tell us about loading bays, permits, lifts and roof access when you book.
- We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
- Ducts are inspected at access points and the condition recorded.
- We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
- Debris is cleared from the duct runs, then grilles and diffusers are cleaned.
- A certificate and before and after photos follow, with anything not reached recorded.
Before we arrive
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
Getting a quote
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 we start.

- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers

Common questions in Mortlake
Can a school’s ventilation in Mortlake be done out of term time?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 16 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Mortlake. You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with the dates the site is empty.
Can you come to Mortlake after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Mortlake needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?
It depends on the building, how the system is used and what inspection finds. Regular inspection tells you when it’s due.
Are you insured?
Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
What accreditations do you have?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
Do you inspect before cleaning?
Yes. Inspection is the start of the TR19® Air approach and record what we find. Cleaning is recommended where it’s needed.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
How much time does a ventilation clean need?
It takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. How much ductwork there is and how easily it’s reached decide the rest.
For landlords and multi-site operators
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Mortlake and across Greater London. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What happens if it’s left?
Where a building in Mortlake serves patients, residents or children, putting off ventilation cleaning is hard to justify. Clean ducts are part of providing good air for the people inside. For a site in Mortlake, fitting the work in overnight now is far easier than closing at short notice later.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.
