How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Ridgeway
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that deals with general supply and extract ventilation. It’s risk-based and inspection-led, so every job starts with a look inside the ducts. Common call-outs are for ducts that need a clean before handover and damp or stale smells from grilles, on general extract ductwork, grilles and diffusers and hospitals and care homes.
Work in a small place like Ridgeway starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

What affects the quote in Ridgeway
You will get a fixed price before any work starts. It takes into account:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The scale of the work
- The condition of the system
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any previous report or certificate
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any access panels or hatches you can see

When something else is needed
Not every problem is solved by ventilation duct cleaning, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. It won’t put right:
- Ventilation that is undersized for the building
- Condensation caused by the building rather than the ducts
- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we are called out for in Ridgeway
Damp ducts hold onto dirt. Where there’s condensation or a leak, dust clings and builds faster, and it becomes harder to remove.
Most sites get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Blocked general extract ductwork
- Duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning
- Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection
- Supply ducts with years of dust inside
If you manage a school such as Smeeth Community Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. William Harvey Hospital is the nearest hospital, about 2.4 miles north-west of Ridgeway. If you run a surgery, clinic or care home, your ventilation deserves the same care as a hospital’s, on a smaller scale.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
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’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Ridgeway: your questions answered
Do you work in villages like Ridgeway?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Ridgeway included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can you do ventilation duct cleaning in Ridgeway?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Ridgeway is part of that. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with a few pictures of the system.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
How much time does a ventilation clean need?
Work on site takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. The survey gives us a clearer idea, so phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us to get started.
What about areas you can’t get to?
We record them on the report, with pictures where possible, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
How much notice do you need?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
How the visit works
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Ridgeway.
- We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
- We inspect inside the ductwork at set points and photograph it.
- The area below is protected and the system switched off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
How to prepare
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Advice
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.
Protect the system during building work by turning it off or covering the openings.
Why deal with it now?
Smells, dust around grilles and stuffy rooms are signs the system needs attention. Acting early keeps the clean simpler. In a small place like Ridgeway, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll talk you through it.
