Ventilation duct cleaning in Newhaven
Beyond the kitchen, TR19® Air covers the ordinary supply and extract systems that serve offices, schools and other buildings. It’s risk-based and inspection-led, so every job starts with a look inside the ducts. Common call-outs are for grilles and diffusers streaked with dirt and ventilation full of debris from building work, on offices and schools, general extract ductwork and supply ductwork.
Around a town like Newhaven, the buildings with ducted ventilation are typically offices, schools, surgeries and care homes. Each has supply and extract ductwork that collects dust and debris.
We have been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.

There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us.

Questions from Newhaven
Do you cover Newhaven for ventilation duct cleaning?
Yes, we work in Newhaven and the places around it. You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
What’s the best way to get a price for ventilation duct cleaning in Newhaven?
A few pictures and the site address are typically enough to start. We survey first, from photos or a visit, then send you a fixed quote.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
Are you accredited?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.
How long does ventilation cleaning take?
The clean takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. The survey gives us a clearer idea, and you can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email to arrange it.
What happens if parts of the ductwork cannot be reached?
Accessible sections are cleaned and the others recorded. Fitting access panels tends to be the answer, and we can fit them.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No, not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurers ask for proof of cleaning to it. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.
Aftercare tips
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
- Don’t block grilles with furniture or storage
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
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.
Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as moisture makes dust stick.
Why act early in Newhaven
Clean ducts let the air move as designed, which takes strain off the fans. Leaving them means the plant works harder for the same result. If an inspection, an insurer’s survey or a fire risk assessment is coming up in Newhaven, having the work done and recorded first helps.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

- Leaks from roofs, pipes or walls into the ductwork
- Controls and BMS faults that affect the system
- A system that is not designed to move enough air
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
