The Frenches questions

Do you work at weekends in The Frenches?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. That way a site in The Frenches doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. When you call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.

Do you cover smaller places like The Frenches?

Yes, The Frenches is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.

When should our ventilation next be cleaned?

Inspection should decide it, in line with TR19® Air. Heavily used buildings, or those with vulnerable occupants, may need attention more often.

Does the law say we must follow TR19?

No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.

What happens to the waste?

It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.

What does ventilation duct cleaning cost?

Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. To get one, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us about the site and its opening hours.

Can you quote from pictures?

Often, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.

Do you survey the system first?

Yes. TR19® Air is inspection-led, so we look inside the ducts at set points and record what we find. Cleaning is recommended where it’s needed.

Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in The Frenches

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 are dealing with ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection and poor airflow from the vents, we can put it right.

For a building in or near The Frenches, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.

We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Managing agents and facilities teams in The Frenches

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.

What happens if it’s left?

Starting with an inspection means you only clean what needs it. Skipping it leaves you guessing. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.

Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.

What you get with us

  • Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
  • One number for every site across the South East and London
  • Trading since 2009
  • Fixed quotes, typically within one working day

Keeping the system healthy

Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Protect the system from construction dust
  • Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
  • Store cleaning certificates where auditors can find them
  • Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles

The report lists the sections we cleaned and any we couldn’t reach, backed up by before and after pictures. We’ll suggest where new access panels would help.

Protect the system during building work by turning it off or covering the openings.

When to call us in The Frenches

It matters for the people inside: dusty ducts can blow debris back into rooms, restrict airflow and make fans work harder. Where people are vulnerable, as in healthcare and care settings, the stakes are higher.

Clients usually contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection
  • Odours carried round the building by the ducts
  • Construction dust left in ducts after a refit
  • Rooms that feel airless when the system runs

If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near The Frenches, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Romsey Community Hospital (about 3.4 miles east).

Before booking anyone

  • What insurance they carry
  • When the next visit should be, and why
  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
  • Whether the figure could change on the day

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

What staff can safely do

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.

What we do, step by step

The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building, and we clear up before we go. The timing of a visit to The Frenches is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.

  1. We survey the system from drawings, photos or a site visit.
  2. Ducts are inspected at access points and the condition recorded.
  3. The area below is protected and the system switched off.
  4. We clean the ductwork, grilles and diffusers through access panels.
  5. We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.

Before we arrive

  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site

How to get a quote

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. 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.

Advice

How we price ventilation duct cleaning

A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:

  • The scale of the work
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • The condition we find in the survey

What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

What we need to know

When you contact us, it’s useful to have:

  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
