Ventilation duct cleaning in Steep, done properly
Beyond the kitchen, TR19® Air covers the ordinary supply and extract systems that serve offices, schools and other buildings. It’s risk-based and inspection-led, so we look before we clean. Common call-outs are for blocked general extract ductwork and systems missing access panels, across toilet extract systems, general extract ductwork and supply ductwork.
In a village or hamlet like Steep, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Part by part
Extract ductwork
A dirty extract duct makes its fan work harder. A clean duct takes the load off.
Grilles and diffusers
Every duct ends at a grille or diffuser in the room. They’re cleaned along with the ductwork, so dust on them is not blown back in.
Between visits
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- Report dust blowing from grilles right away
- Protect the system from construction dust
- File each ventilation report with the building records
The report lists the sections we cleaned and any we couldn’t reach, with pictures before and after. We’ll suggest where new access panels would help.
Fix leaks and damp near the ductwork quickly, as moisture makes dust stick.
What happens if it’s left?
Clean ducts let the air move as designed, which puts less load on the fans. Leaving them means the plant works harder for the same result. If the system at a site near Steep fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
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 unsure, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
Steep buildings and their air
Food Standards Agency records list about 5 schools, colleges and universities and about 4 caring premises (care homes, nurseries and hospitals) registered as food businesses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Steep. Buildings like these often rely on mechanical ventilation, which TR19® Air covers. Petersfield Community Hospital is the nearest hospital, about 1.5 miles south of Steep. If you run a surgery, clinic or care home, your ventilation deserves the same care as a hospital’s, on a smaller scale. We cover Steep, about 49 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you.
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Steep, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Petersfield Community Hospital (about 1.5 miles south). School buildings such as Steep Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School are usually done in the holidays, so classrooms aren’t disturbed.

Questions from Steep
Do you work overnight in Steep?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. When you call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
Can ventilation in schools around Steep be cleaned out of term?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 5 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Steep. Send us your term dates when you call 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll fit the work in.
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.
Do you survey the system first?
Yes, on every job. The survey shows the layout, the access and the condition before giving a fixed quote.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, for many jobs. Send a few wide pictures plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote normally follows within one working day. If photos aren’t enough, we will survey first.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
What does TR19 Air cover?
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that covers general supply and extract ventilation, rather than kitchen extract. It’s risk-based and led by inspection, while TR19® Grease covers kitchen extract systems.

We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:

- Ducts that are damaged, corroded or leaking and need replacing
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How it works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Steep.
- We look at the system and any earlier reports.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- The work area is protected and the system switched off.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
