About our ventilation duct cleaning in North Weald Bassett
Every ventilation system has ducts bringing air in and ducts taking it out. Dust and debris build up in both, some of which ends up back in the rooms. Our cleaning covers the ducts, grilles and diffusers, to TR19® Air. If you are dealing with construction dust left in ducts after a refit and systems missing access panels, we can help, from toilet extract systems, supply ductwork and offices and schools onwards.
In a place like North Weald Bassett, air handling units are often tucked into roof spaces or small plant rooms, out of sight and easy to overlook. Every unit, large or small, has filters, coils and a drain tray to keep clean.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
What affects the quote in North Weald Bassett
You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It takes into account:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- The number of sites or systems
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
What we need to know
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The site address and the type of premises
- Any previous report or certificate
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
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, which applies in England and Wales.

With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.

The Fire Safety Order 2005 calls them the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. Landlords, facilities managers and managing agents can also hold responsibility.
What if there are not enough access panels?
Accessible sections are cleaned and the others recorded. Fitting access panels tends to be the answer, and we can quote for them.
How far ahead should we book?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
