Ventilation duct cleaning in Sholden Meadows, done properly
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that deals with general supply and extract ventilation. It works by inspecting first and cleaning where the risk calls for it, so we look before we clean. If you have duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning and ductwork that hasn’t been inspected, we can put it right.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Multi-site and managed buildings
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
What the work involves, part by part
Schools and colleges
Busy classrooms send a lot of dust and fibre into extract ducts. Inspection shows when cleaning is due.
Grilles and diffusers
Grilles and diffusers are where the ducts meet the room. We clean them as part of the job, so the room side matches the duct side.
Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Building management settings that run the plant
- Ventilation that is undersized for the building
- Damaged ductwork beyond cleaning
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Common questions in Sholden Meadows
Do you clean school ventilation in Sholden Meadows in the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. With about 12 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Sholden Meadows, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will fit the work in.
Do you cover smaller places like Sholden Meadows?
Yes. Sholden Meadows is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Will you look at the ducts before quoting?
Yes. We always survey first, on site or from pictures and drawings, then we send you a fixed quote.
Do you clean grilles and diffusers?
Yes. Removable grilles come down for cleaning and go back up. Fixed ones are cleaned in place.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
Where does the waste go?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it doesn’t spread.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

What else we do in Sholden Meadows
Why deal with it now?
Dust streaks around grilles and stale rooms suggest the ducts need looking at. Acting early keeps the clean simpler. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before we start.
Why book with us
- Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
- Full insurance on every job
- Photo reports with every job
- In business since 2009
How the visit works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Sholden Meadows.
- We start by looking at the layout of the ductwork and how it can be reached.
- Ducts are inspected at access points and the condition recorded.
- We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
- We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
Before we arrive
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Move anything stored near the system
Getting a quote
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

What your team can do, and what needs us
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 can diagnose it and quote.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
