What we’re called out for in Wellow
In a building in Wellow, the ventilation may run for long hours every day, and every hour moves more dust through the ducts. The busier the building, the faster it builds up.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Poor airflow from the vents
- Ductwork that hasn’t been inspected
- Supply ducts with years of dust inside
- Systems missing access panels
For buildings in and around Wellow, TR19® Air cleaning starts with an inspection.

Ventilation duct cleaning in Wellow, done properly
When the work is finished, you get a TR19® certificate and before and after pictures. The report lists what we cleaned, any sections not reached and a recommended next inspection, giving the ventilation a clean bill of health on paper. The work covers hospitals and care homes, grilles and diffusers and toilet extract systems, and people most often call us about supply ducts with years of dust inside and damp or stale smells from grilles.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
Each visit ends with a written report and pictures, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Stick to the filter change schedule
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
- Book the next inspection on the date the report recommends
- Report leaks or damp near ceilings and risers
If there’s building work planned, protect the ventilation. Switch it off or cover the grilles while dusty work goes on.
Protect the system during building work by switching it off or covering the grilles.
Common questions in Wellow
Will you come out to Wellow?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Wellow included. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can ventilation in schools around Wellow be cleaned out of term?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 2 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Wellow, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
How much notice should we give?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
What do you do with what you remove?
We take it away at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
Are you accredited?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
How do you deal with ducts you can’t get into?
We clean what we can reach and note the rest. Extra access panels can solve it, and we can quote for them.
How the visit works
Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Wellow before we set off.
- We survey the system from drawings, photos or a site visit.
- Ducts are inspected at access points and the condition recorded.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- You get a TR19® certificate and photo report, with any unreached sections noted.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Find the previous report, if there is one

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
What ventilation duct cleaning can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- Problems with how the system is controlled
- Ventilation that’s undersized for the building
- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Grilles and diffusers
- Toilet extract systems
- Supply ductwork
- General extract ductwork
- Hospitals and care homes
- Offices and schools
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
