About our ventilation duct cleaning in Racton
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 every job starts with a look inside the ducts. If you are dealing with systems missing access panels and dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Racton, ducted ventilation is typically limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Watch for water stains around grilles
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
- Log every filter change
Change filters on schedule so the clean ducts stay clean. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.
Keep filters changed on time. Overloaded or poorly seated filters let dust straight through.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
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. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. 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 happens if it’s left?
After building work, cleaning the ventilation before people move back in makes sense. Otherwise construction dust left in the ducts is blown out once the system runs. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
You won’t find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll talk you through it.

What ventilation duct cleaning cannot fix
Some problems need a different service or another trade:

- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
- Damaged ductwork beyond cleaning

What affects the quote in Racton
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The times the site is available
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What we need to know
When you contact us, these details help:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any previous report or certificate
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
How it works
The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building, and we clear up before we go. Somewhere like Racton, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- First the system is surveyed, on site or from pictures and drawings.
- We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
- The area below is protected and the system switched 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.
How to prepare
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

Who is the responsible person?
The Fire Safety Order 2005 calls them the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.
Do we get a certificate after the clean?
Yes. You get a TR19® certificate and a report with before and after pictures. Keep them in the maintenance log.
What does ventilation duct cleaning cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before any work starts.
What happens to the waste?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, for many jobs. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and we normally come back within one working day. If pictures are not enough, we will survey first.
What does TR19 Air cover?
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that covers general supply and extract ventilation, beyond the kitchen. It works on inspection and risk, while TR19® Grease covers kitchen extract systems.
