Why use a BESA accredited contractor?

The video showcases a prime example of the crucial role a BESA accredited duct cleaning contractor plays in maintaining safety and efficiency.
 
The footage reveals the stark difference between a thoroughly cleaned exhaust system and one neglected or poorly serviced by unaccredited contractors. The build-up of grease and debris, as seen in the video, poses an inherent fire risk. This can lead to devastating consequences, including costly downtime for business closures and extensive refit expenses.

This video was taken after we were invited in to clean following a free site inspection.

The previous contractor was not BESA accredited.

Unfortunately, business owners and managers rarely see the inside of their ducting systems, often being told they are fully cleaned by their contractor. This video underscores the importance of trusting only BESA accredited contractors to ensure the highest standards of cleanliness and safety, thus protecting both property and lives.


  • Working with an approved VHR contractor means your vent hygiene meets industry standards .
  • Using a VHR approved contractor will ensure you receive the right guidance, advice and support for your vent hygiene works, every time.
  • Keeping costs down is tempting but you need to be careful that this isn’t the only reason you choose a contractor. Too low and it should be a warning, not a bonus for your budget. 
  •  We are audited by BESA which ensures we can demonstrate commercial and technical ability. The BESA Vent hygiene register is recognised by RISCAuthority, British Standards and London Fire Brigade, along with many UK Insurers.

  • Mitigate your risk and liability
  • Reduce risk of grease extract fires
  • Ensure consistent high standard hygiene work
