About our ventilation duct cleaning in Rettendon
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. If you have dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years and ductwork that hasn’t been inspected, we can help, from hospitals and care homes, grilles and diffusers and general extract ductwork onwards.
Somewhere as small as Rettendon, ducted ventilation is typically limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Rettendon: your questions answered
Can you come to Rettendon after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Rettendon needn’t be disturbed. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
Will you come out to Rettendon?
Yes. Rettendon is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you provide a report?
Yes. You get a TR19® certificate and a report with before and after pictures. BESA advises keeping certificates in the maintenance log.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the details are available on request.
What is TR19?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. We always survey first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.
What information do you need?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
Do you inspect before cleaning?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from pictures, drawings or a site visit, then we send you a fixed quote.
Keeping the system healthy
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Keep filters changed on time
- Protect the system from construction dust
Share the report with whoever looks after the building’s maintenance, so it’s all in one place. Year on year, it shows how fast dust builds up.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.
How the visit works
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building, and we clear up before we go. Somewhere like Rettendon, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- The work area is protected and the system switched off.
- We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
- The report records what was cleaned, anything not reached and a next inspection date.
How to prepare
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
Ask for a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.
Related advice
What affects the quote in Rettendon
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The condition of the system
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The scale of the work
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Any previous report or certificate
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Do you need ventilation duct cleaning in Rettendon?
Refits and building work send dust into ventilation systems, particularly if it’s left running while work goes on. Plaster, wood and masonry dust can sit in the ducts for years.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Blocked general extract ductwork
- Musty smells from the ventilation
- Dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms
- Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection
Around Rettendon, as anywhere, ventilation cleaning begins with an inspection.
Questions to ask before you book
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
What a clean won’t put right
Ventilation duct cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
- Ventilation that is undersized for the building
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
