How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Shere
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. If you have dirty diffusers dropping dust into rooms and dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years, we can help, from general extract ductwork, grilles and diffusers and toilet extract systems onwards.
Somewhere as small as Shere, 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.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with photos, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
The process
Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Shere, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- We inspect the ducts at chosen points to see where cleaning is needed.
- The work area is protected and the system switched off.
- We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
Getting ready for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
Getting a quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Shere
Can you get to a site in Shere?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Shere included. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you work at weekends in Shere?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Shere keeps running as normal. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
How long will the duct cleaning take?
The clean takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. We will know more after the survey, and you can ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line to arrange it.
When should our ventilation next 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.
Which sectors do you work in?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.
How far ahead should we book?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes. We always survey first, on site or from pictures and drawings, and then quote a fixed price.
Who is the responsible person?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. Landlords, facilities managers and managing agents can also hold responsibility.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Why act early in Shere

Looking after it afterwards
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Log every filter change
- Do not block grilles with furniture or storage
- Flag any dust coming out of the vents
- Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
We recommend when the system should next be inspected, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air. Put it in the diary now so it isn’t missed.
Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- The number of sites or systems
- The scale of the work
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- What state the system is in
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
What to send for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
To get a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.
