Hampshire · Ventilation duct cleaning
Ventilation duct cleaning in Newbridge, Hampshire
For ventilation duct cleaning in Newbridge, one call is all it takes, from survey to sign-off. Fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001.
- Damp or stale smells from grilles
- Systems missing access panels
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
Looking after it afterwards
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Include grilles in the cleaning rota
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Report dust blowing from grilles right away
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters let dust straight back in.
Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overdue or badly fitted filters let dust into the supply ducts.
Ventilation duct cleaning in Newbridge, done properly
Beyond the kitchen, TR19® Air covers the ordinary supply and extract systems that serve offices, schools and other buildings. It works by inspecting first and cleaning where the risk calls for it, so we look before we clean. The work covers grilles and diffusers, toilet extract systems and offices and schools, and people most often call us about supply ducts with years of dust inside and musty smells from the ventilation.
Work in a small place like Newbridge starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Newbridge can be planned properly.
- We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
- 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.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate and report issued.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

Common questions in Newbridge
Do you work at weekends in Newbridge?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Newbridge keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
Do you cover smaller places like Newbridge?
Yes, Newbridge is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No, not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurers ask for proof of cleaning to it. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.
What about areas you cannot get to?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
What’s TR19?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?
There’s no single interval; under TR19® Air, inspection decides. Each report recommends when the system should next be inspected.
Do you clean grilles and diffusers?
Yes. Where they can be removed, they’re taken down, cleaned and refitted. Fixed ones are cleaned in place.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
