What affects the quote in West Wellow
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- The number of sites or systems
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- What state the system is in
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- A few general shots of the system
- Problems your staff have spotted
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
About our ventilation duct cleaning in West Wellow
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 every job starts with a look inside the ducts. Typical jobs include musty smells from the ventilation and construction dust left in ducts after a refit, across supply ductwork, offices and schools and hospitals and care homes.
Work in a small place like West Wellow starts with agreeing access and timings.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we’re fully insured.

How the visit works
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near West Wellow, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- First the system is surveyed, on site or from photos and drawings.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- Floors and furniture are covered and the ventilation turned off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Aftercare tips
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Flag any dust coming out of the vents
- Don’t block grilles with furniture or storage
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Include grilles in the cleaning rota
What was cleaned is listed, along with any parts that weren’t accessible, with photos before and after. We’ll suggest where new access panels would help.
Deal with condensation and leaks near ducts promptly, as wet dust is much harder to clean.

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.

What is TR19® Air?
TR19® Air deals with general ventilation, while TR19® Grease deals with kitchen extract. TR19® Air takes an inspection-led, risk-based approach.
Which sectors do you work in?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
What a clean will not put right
Not every problem is solved by ventilation duct cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Damaged ductwork beyond cleaning
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
- Controls and BMS faults that affect the system
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Multi-site and managed buildings
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. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
What we are called out for in West Wellow
Moisture in ducts makes dust stick. Condensation and leaks turn loose dust into a stubborn layer, and it becomes harder to remove.
What we are most often called out for:
- Poor airflow from the vents
- Construction dust left in ducts after a refit
- Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
- Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection
School buildings such as Wellow School are typically done in the holidays, so classrooms aren’t disturbed.
