FAQs for Tendring
Do you clean school ventilation in Tendring in the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 3 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Tendring. Send us your term dates when you ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we’ll fit the work in.
Do you work overnight in Tendring?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Tendring can fit around your hours. Just call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?
It depends on the building, how the system is used and what inspection finds. Regular inspection tells you when it’s due.
What does TR19 Air cover?
TR19® Air applies to the general ventilation in buildings like offices, schools and hospitals. Kitchen extract is covered separately, by TR19® Grease.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Yes, where the pictures show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, then a fixed quote.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Normally not. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits to keep things running.
About our ventilation duct cleaning in Tendring
We cover Tendring and the rest of Essex for ventilation duct cleaning, in offices, schools, healthcare buildings and retail. Every job begins with a survey and a fixed quote. If you are dealing with dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers and ductwork with too few access panels to clean, we can help, from general extract ductwork, grilles and diffusers and toilet extract systems onwards.
In a village or hamlet like Tendring, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

How we price ventilation duct cleaning
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- Parking and loading at the site
- The scale of the work
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The condition we find in the survey
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.
What we need to know
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Your last certificate, test record or report
To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will typically have a quote within one working day.
Why deal with it now?
Dust in ducts doesn’t go away on its own. The longer it’s left, the more there is to remove, and the more gets blown back into the rooms. It’s simpler to plan the work at Tendring now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form for straight advice and a fixed quote.

How the job changes from site to site
Hospitals and care homes
In healthcare and care settings, there’s no quiet time. The work is sequenced with staff to keep disruption down.
Offices and retail
Fit-outs in offices and shops leave dust in the ventilation. Cleaning before the new occupants move in makes sense.
How it works
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. In a small place like Tendring, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- First the system is surveyed, on site or from pictures and drawings.
- Inspection comes next, with pictures of the inside of the ducts.
- The area below is protected and the system switched off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Clear loose items from the work area
Ask for a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before we start.

What staff can safely do
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.

Between visits
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Log every filter change
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Include grilles in the cleaning rota
Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters are the quickest way to undo a duct clean.
Protect the system during building work by switching it off or covering the grilles.
