Rusper: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Rusper?
Yes. Rusper is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Do you work overnight in Rusper?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Rusper needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
Not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
How much time does a ventilation clean need?
Expect it to take anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. How much ductwork there is and how easily it’s reached decide the rest.
How often should ventilation ductwork be cleaned?
TR19® Air is risk-based, so cleaning follows inspection rather than a fixed calendar. Each report recommends when the system should next be inspected.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where necessary. Then you get a fixed quote.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.
How do you deal with ducts you can’t get into?
Accessible sections are cleaned and the others recorded. Fitting access panels tends to be the answer, and we can quote for them.
Ventilation duct cleaning in Rusper
Everyone in the building breathes the air the ventilation brings in. Clean ducts are part of a healthy building, alongside filter changes and AHU maintenance. The work covers offices and schools, general extract ductwork and hospitals and care homes, and common reasons people get in touch are stuffy rooms and stale air and toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff.
For a building in or near Rusper, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- The site address and the type of premises
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.
Multi-site and managed buildings
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

Aftercare tips
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
- Report dust blowing from grilles straight away
- Don’t run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
The report lists the sections we cleaned and any we couldn’t reach, backed up by before and after photos. If access panels are needed, we’ll say where.
Fit access panels where the ductwork cannot be reached. Hidden sections are the ones that get worst.
Signs you need ventilation duct cleaning in Rusper
Most ductwork is out of sight, so nobody sees the build-up. The grilles get a wipe, but what’s behind them does not.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
- Toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff
For schools like Rusper Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether the quote shows VAT
Leave it or put it right?
Starting with an inspection means you only clean what needs it. Skipping it leaves you guessing. It’s simpler to plan the work at Rusper now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.

When it’s something else

What the work covers
- Hospitals and care homes
- General extract ductwork
- Supply ductwork
- Offices and schools
- Grilles and diffusers
- Toilet extract systems
How it works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Somewhere like Rusper, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
Before we arrive
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
