How we handle ventilation duct cleaning in Southcourt
When the work is finished, you get a TR19® certificate and before and after photos. It shows what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the system should next be inspected, so you have it all on record. If you are dealing with systems with no record of inspection or cleaning and toilet and washroom extracts full of fluff, we can help, from general extract ductwork, hospitals and care homes and grilles and diffusers onwards.
In a place like Southcourt, air handling units are often tucked into roof spaces or small plant rooms, out of sight and easy to overlook. Every unit, large or small, has filters, coils and a drain tray to keep clean.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Southcourt
Do you work in villages like Southcourt?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Do you clean school ventilation in Southcourt in the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 28 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Southcourt. Send us your term dates when you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll fit the work in.
What do you do with what you remove?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. We don’t leave it behind.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. That is generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. If you are not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
Do we need to close while you work?
Usually not. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits so parts stay in use.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
How does TR19 Air differ from TR19 Grease?
The two cover different systems: general ventilation for TR19® Air and kitchen extract for TR19® Grease. TR19® Air takes an inspection-led, risk-based approach.
Leave it or put it right?
Dust streaks around grilles and stale rooms suggest the ducts need looking at. Dealing with them now stops them getting worse. Light use slows the build-up but does not stop it.
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will talk you through it.

What else we do in Southcourt
How the visit works
Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the ventilation duct cleaning, clear away and leave you the report. On site, the work takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Visits to a place like Southcourt are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the survey says the job needs.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- We inspect the ducts at chosen points to see where cleaning is needed.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- We clean the system and remove the debris from site.
- The report records what was cleaned, anything not reached and a next inspection date.
Before we arrive
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Find the previous report, if there is one
How to get a quote
To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We typically come back within one working day.
Related advice
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
How the job changes from site to site
Schools and colleges
Schools and colleges are easiest to clean during the holidays, when classrooms are empty.
Grilles and diffusers
Dust marks around grilles can point to dirt further back in the system. The grilles are cleaned and the ducts behind inspected.
What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The number of sites or systems
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- A few general shots of the system
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
When to call us in Southcourt
It matters for the people inside: dirt in the ducts can come back out of the grilles, slow the air and add strain on fans. Where people are vulnerable, as in healthcare and care settings, the stakes are higher.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Odours carried round the building by the ducts
- Construction dust left in ducts after a refit
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
- Poor airflow from the vents
Healthcare buildings such as Stoke Mandeville Hospital, about 0.8 miles south-east, depend on their ventilation; if you manage a surgery, clinic or care home near Southcourt, yours matters too.
Questions to ask before booking
- What insurance they carry
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
